Destiny 2’s resident Gunsmith is stocking an Auto Rifle that Guardians will want to swing by and pick up before it’s gone.
As of August 31, Banshee-44 is selling a fixed roll of Chrysura Melo that’s essentially a god roll of the gun, and it’ll only set you back 10,000 Glimmer and a singular Enhancement Core.
First introduced in Season of the Lost, Chrysura Melo is a High-Impact Frame Auto. The archetype traditionally boasts high range and impact stats, with the trade-off being a sluggish reload speed and inconsistent stability.
Fortunately, the perks available on Banshee’s roll remedy those disadvantages to an extent.
Banshee-44’s fixed roll Chrysura Melo
- Barrel: Chambered Compensator
- Magazine: Accurized Rounds
- Perk 1: Dynamic Sway Reduction
- Perk 2: Multikill Clip
- Masterwork: Stability
Owing to the second perk slot being occupied by Multikill Clip, instead of the superior (for PvE) Dragonfly, this roll is best suited to Crucible.

Accurized Rounds paired with Dynamic Sway Reduction is an incredible combo enabling Chrysura to compete with some Scouts and Pulse Rifles at range.
Chambered Compensator and a Stability Masterwork perfectly complement the above, boosting Range to a whopping 83. The only reduction here is -5 to Handling, so you’ll want something snappy and lightweight – Shotguns or SMGs will be your best bet – to cover all of your bases.

Sadly, Bungie has already identified some unintended bugs with the Wyvern-inspired weapon, so Guardians may want to take full advantage of their new toy before any potential nerfs neuter its effectiveness.
