Best Grenade Launchers in Destiny 2
Mentioned below are some of the most powerful Grenade launchers:
Deafening Whisper
This Energy-type legendary weapon has the strongest blast radius out of all. This grenade launcher is the best and perhaps the strongest for PvE matches. It also has an exceptionally quick reload speed and can shoot 72 rounds per minute. You can get Deafening Whisper by completing the Wrathborn Hunts with a prey lure or the Crow Rank-up packages.
Parasite
Although it is a Grenade Launcher, Parasite is a disguised Rocket launcher that blasts off enemies. It has a single magazine and is best suitable for PvE matches. If you are grinding in a challenging dungeon, you can trust this weapon to damage hordes of enemies anytime. But coming to the PvP matches, it has a much slower reload speed.
Witherhoard
This rare-type Kinetic grenade launcher fires away blight upon enemies and the proximity. When the blight sticks to an enemy, it will deal with damage over time. So, you can use the Witherhoard for controlling the area. You can get this weapon by purchasing it from the Exotic Kiosk in the Tower for 1 Exotic Cipher, 1 Ascendant Shard, and 100,000 Glimmer.
Salvager’s Salvo
The best aspect of this Grenade launcher is that it has special ammo that deals with Arc damage. On top of that, Salvager’s Salvo also features the best perks and handling. You can get this Legendary special weapon from the Exotic Kiosk in the tower for 1 Ascendant Shard, 2 Enhancement Prisms, 100 Legendary Shards, and 75,000 Glimmer.
Lingering Dread
This legendary stasis gun is introduced in the most recent Season of the Haunted expansion. Lingering Dread is an overpowered legendary GL for not only PvE but also PvP matches. You can get this weapon by completing the first and final encounter at the Duality Dungeon. Its Ambitious Assassin and Demolitionist perks are the best for the column perks.
