Midnight Coup PVE God Roll
The best perks for the Midnight Coup PVE God Roll are Fluted Barrel, Drop Mag, Firefly, and Desperate Measures. These provide essential stats, utility, and damage for the weapon.
The following list is the best perks for the Midnight Coup PVE God Roll in Destiny 2:
- Barrel: Fluted Barrel
- Magazine: Drop Mag
- Column 3 Trait: Firefly
- Column 4 Trait: Desperate Measures
- Masterwork: Range
- Origin Trait: Indomintability
- Weapon Mod: Backup Mag
Fluted Barrel is a fantastic go-to option for barrel perk on any hand cannon as it gives a stats boost to your handling and stability, which are often low on hand cannons. Magazine options are a little more nuanced, but Drop Mag provides a reload animation reduction, allowing for faster reload. Firefly gives the weapon an area of effect damage explosion upon getting a precision kill while providing a boost in reload. Lastly, Desperate Measures is our damage perk, providing a stacking increase in our damage output by getting kills with the weapon and our abilities.
Midnight Coup is one of the most iconic hand cannons in Year 1 Destiny 2 and is no less powerful after its re-release. With a fantastic perk selection, you would be hard-pressed to find a better kinetic hand cannon that is so easily farmable.
Midnight Coup PVP God Roll
The best perks for the Midnight Coup PVP God Roll are Smallbore, Accurized Rounds, Enlightened Action, and Desperate Measures. These provide important stats, utility, and damage for the weapon.

- Barrel: Smallbore
- Magazine: Accurized Rounds
- Column 3 Trait: Enlightened Action
- Column 4 Trait: Desperate Measures
- Masterwork: Range
- Origin Trait: Indomintability
- Weapon Mod: Icarus Grip
Regarding Smallbore barrel, Accurized Rounds magazine, and Range masterwork, anything that improves range is the way to go for PvP, as the range is one of the most important stats for PVP. Similarly to the PVE rolls, there are multiple options to choose from. However, Enlightened Action and Desperate Measures are the clear winners due to the provision of stat and damage bonuses for simply using and killing with the weapon.
While PVP is based on personal preference, Midnight Coup is strong, with a great selection of perks and fantastic base stats that make it stand out versus other hand cannons.
How to Get the Midnight Coup
Midnight Coup can be obtained from Onslaught, the new activity released with the Into the Light update. To enter Onslaught, go to your Director map, select Into the Light, then queue for the Onslaught activity. While in Onslaught, you can get multiple weapons by completing the 50 waves of the activity and by ranking up Lord Shaxx Onslaught’s reputation. Going to the Hall of Champions social area, found within the Into the Light map area, you can turn in Trophies of Bravery at the chest next to Lord Shaxx for additional weapons. Lastly, you can attune your loot for a specific weapon, increasing the chances of dropping that weapon when obtaining an Onslaught loot.
