Destiny 2 False Idols God Roll and How to Get

False Idols is a solar vortex frame sword released with the Final Shape expansion as a Pale Heart location weapon. Swords are mostly used in PVE due to their damage and ammo economy providing high overall damage. However, they can be risky to use as they put you close to your enemies to deal damage so Well of Radiance or significant healing is a must-have when using. This can limit their usage to specific encounters or activities: however, in those circumstances, swords are incredibly powerful.

The best perks for False Idols PVE God Roll are Jagged Edge, Swordmaster’s Guard, Relentless Strikes, and Bait and Switch. These provide important stats, utility, and damage for the weapon.

The following list is the best perks for False Idols PVE God Roll in Destiny 2:

  • Blade: Jagged Edge
  • Guard: Swordmaster’s Guard
  • Column 3 Trait: Relentless Strikes
  • Column 4 Trait: Bait and Switch
  • Masterwork: Impact
  • Origin Trait: Dealer’s Choice
  • Weapon Mod: Quick Access Sling

Due to the unique nature of swords, False Idols has access to different attachments in the barrel and magazine slots rather than traditional perks. Jagged Edge, Swordmaster’s Guard, and Impact masterwork ensure we have the highest amount of damage per swing possible. Also, Relentless Strikes helps our ammo economy by giving us back ammo for using the sword as we normally would. Lastly, Bait and Switch gives a massive damage boost for hitting the enemy with each of our weapons.

These perks combine to provide us with one of the highest damage swords in the game and with fantastic ammo economy. Also, with regenerating ammo perk and high base reserves, we have a potent boss damage weapon for close-range encounters.

  • Origin Trait: Dealer’s Choice
  • Weapon Mod: Quick Access Sling

Similar to PVE we are going with Jagged Edge, Swordmaster’s Guard, and Impact masterwork to make sure we do the most damage with each swing. Also, Vorpal Weapon gives us a powerful damage perk against enemy guardians using their supers. This allows us to use our heavy weapon to shut down opposing guardians in their roaming supers.

Swords aren’t used a lot in PVP due to requiring being close to be effective. Since there are so many one-shot close-range weapons, swords can be dangerous to use. However, they are great for providing a quick slash to take out an unsuspecting target.
