How to Get Mistral Lift in Destiny 2
The Mistral Lift is a time-limited reward exclusive to Destiny 2's Dawning event. Obtain it from Eva Levante by trading one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits. Eva also sells Festive Engrams (1 Gift in Return and 10 Dawning Spirits), but these offer a random chance at the Mistral Lift.
Gifts in Return are earned by baking Dawning treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and gifting them to NPCs. Dawning Spirits are the event's currency, acquired through completing daily Dawning quests and bounties from Eva.
Repeatedly visit Eva to exchange your resources for either the Festive Engram or the Mistral Lift directly, aiming for the desired god roll.
Destiny 2 Mistral Lift God Roll
While Linear Fusion Rifles aren't always meta in Destiny 2, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, particularly for solo players. This recommended god roll maximizes its potential:
| Stat | Roll |
|---|---|
| Barrel | Fluted Barrel |
| Battery | Enhanced Battery |
| Perk 1 | Withering Gaze |
| Perk 2 | Bait and Switch |
| Masterwork | Handling |
Withering Gaze debuffs enemies, and Bait and Switch provides a 30% damage boost (after a brief ADS period). For group play, Envious Assassin could replace Withering Gaze. Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and Handling masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity.
While not ideal for PvP, the Mistral Lift's PvE performance makes it a worthwhile acquisition. Check The Escapist for more Destiny 2 guides and news.
