The Immortal is a new submachine gun arriving with Trials of Osiris in Destiny 2 Lightfall<\/em>, and it’s releasing into a highly competitive category for the Crucible. Endgame PvP in Season of the Seraph was defined by the deadly synergy of the reprised IKELOS_SMG_v1.0.3 with the Peacekeepers Titan Exotic, and while The Immortal won’t represent a dramatic meta shift, it will dethrone the current top dog.<\/p>
Like the IKELOS SMG, The Immortal is a 750 RPM Aggressive Frame submachine gun. After the range stats of submachine guns was nerfed across the board, this frame came into popular use in PvP with the perk Rangefinder equipped as it remained capable of shredding in the mid-range. <\/p>
Despite sharing the same archetype, The Immortal has a few key advantages: it has a higher base range stat, almost double the airborne effectiveness, less recoil and more aim assist. These natural advantages that come stock with the weapon are even further enhanced by its perk pool, which takes the highlights of the IKELOS SMG’s PvP options and improves on them. This includes Rangefinder now being in the third perk column, allowing for it to be combined with a damage perk for maximum impact.<\/p>
This will no doubt be a gun that is highly sought after when it first becomes available in Trials of Osiris, so make sure to equip yourself with the knowledge of what the best rolls and perks are on the weapon before picking up your Trials Passage.<\/p>
