Forthcoming Deviance PvE God Roll
The best perks for the Forthcoming Deviance PVE God Roll are Auxiliary Reserves, Swap Mag, Disruption Break, and Close to Melee. These provide important stats, utility, and damage for the weapon.
The following list is the best perks for the Forthcoming Deviance PVE God Roll in Destiny 2:
- Haft: Auxiliary Reserves
- Magazine: Swap Mag
- Column 3 Trait: Disruption Break
- Column 4 Trait: Close to Melee
- Masterwork: Handling
- Origin Trait: Collective Purpose
- Weapon Mod: Quick Access Sling (Adept Handling)
The main selling point of glaives is their ability to switch between range and melee with ease, but its most useful feature is its shield. Buff up its shield duration with Auxiliary Reserves. Swap Mag allows you to ready the Forthcoming Deviance quickly. Almost all glaives benefit from Disruption Break, and the Forthcoming Deviance is no exception. That combined with Close to Melee can buff the damage of the melee attacks.
Glaives are not typically used in most end-game PvE content. They have their shield but otherwise don’t offer anything worthwhile. Forthcoming Deviance is no exception to this since it doesn’t seem to stand out too much over other glaives. It’s an interesting addition to the sandbox but unfortunately that is all that it is.
Forthcoming Deviance PvP God Roll
The best perks for the Forthcoming Deviance PVP God Roll are Auxiliary Reserves, Swap Mag, Impulse Amplifier, and Unstoppable Force. These provide important stats, utility, and damage for the weapon.
The following list is the best perks for the Forthcoming Deviance PVP God Roll in Destiny 2:
- Haft: Auxiliary Reserves
- Magazine: Swap Mag
- Column 3 Trait: Impulse Amplifier
- Column 4 Trait: Unstoppable Force
- Masterwork: Handling
- Origin Trait: Collective Purpose
- Weapon Mod: Quick Access Sling (Adept Handling)
As with most glaives, the Forthcoming Deviance plays an odd role in the PvP sandbox. They aren’t meta by any stretch of the word, but can be very powerful in the right hands as a clean-up weapon. Impulse Amplifier and Unstoppable Force both give great benefits to PvP play. The former is a nice passive benefit that just improves the glaive’s performance while the latter can improve the damage a bit. The damage increase isn’t enough to make the weapon kill any faster but can make up some damage when the Forthcoming Deviance is used as a clean-up weapon.
