Solstice has returned for another year. This event is full of fun activities and plenty of loot for players to farm. This Solstice, Crowning Duologue has had a next-level glow up pushing it to near the top of the Rocket Launcher power curve. These new god rolls should be on the list of great weapons to chase down during this year's event.
Crowning Duologue is a random drop for completing the Solstice activity, Bonfire Bash. You can receive multiple copies of Crowning Duologue after each run so good luck in your hunt. You’ll have until August 27 to farm for a decent god roll.
Crowning Duologue gets a chance at some of the best Rocket Launcher perks in the game for PvE and this god roll harnesses that power.
| Crowning Duologue god roll - PVE | |
|---|---|
| Barrel | Quick Launch (Velocity +10, Handing +15) |
| Magazine | Impact Casing (Increases impact damage by 10 percent, resulting in a 2.2 percent total damage increase) |
| Perk 1 | Reconstruction (Refills 10 percent of the magazine capacity from reserves every four seconds while not firing the weapon) |
| Perk 2 | Bait and Switch (Upon dealing damage with all equipped Weapons within seven seconds of each: Grants 30 percent increased damage for 10 seconds. Buff duration cannot be refreshed) |
| Origin Trait | Hakke Breach Armaments (Passively grants increased damage against Vehicles by 15 percent. Turrets, Barricades, Ward of Dawn, Well of Radiance: 30 percent. Stasis Crystals: 45 percent) |
| Masterwork | Velocity (+10 when fully masterworked) |
| Mod | Quick Access Sling (Decreases ready and stow animation by 10 percent) |
Start with Quick Launch for its added Velocity. This ensures the Rockets reach their target quickly giving foes less chance to dodge the blast. Back the Launcher Barrel up with Impact Casing which causes a substantial amount of increased damage on a direct hit.
The main pull for this god roll starts here. Reconstruction comes in not only to automatically refill the Magazine but because it overflows it, doubling capacity which can come in handy when taking on chunkier enemies. Combine this with Bait and Switch which provides a 30 percent damage increase after landing a hit with all equipped weapons. Reconstruction feeds into this with its automatic refill, ensuring it’s ready to fire again when you rotate back to Crowning Duologue.
A fun interaction to mention is the combination of Hatchling and Chain Reaction. While Rocket Launchers are normally damage-focused, this can be great for Strand-focused builds and for those looking to clear out entire arenas of enemies with its large explosions and Hatchling creation.
Crowning Duologue’s PvP god roll has all the right perks to easily take out groups of enemies so it's great for game modes with objectives.
| Crowning Duologue god roll - PVP | |
|---|---|
| Barrel | Quick Launch (Velocity +10, Handing +15) |
| Magazine | High-Velocity Rounds (Velocity +10, Reload +10) |
| Perk 1 | Impulse Amplifier (Passively grants: 35 percent increased projectile velocity, Reload +20 and 0.8x reload duration multiplier) |
| Perk 2 | Cluster Bomb (Rockets spawn cluster bombs upon detonation) |
| Origin Trait | Hakke Breach Armaments (Passively grants increased damage against Vehicles by 15 percent. Turrets, Barricades, Ward of Dawn, Well of Radiance: 30 percent. Stasis Crystals: 45 percent) |
| Masterwork | Blast Radius (+10 when fully masterworked) |
| Mod | Quick Access Sling (Decreases ready and stow animation by 10 percent) |
Pick this god roll up with the starting combination of Quick Launch and High-Velocity Rounds. The instant +20 to Velocity helps ensure enemies will have little chance of dodging its barrage. The added Handling is a big bonus to keep Crowning Duologue snappy.
The main perks start with Impulse Amplifier. The large boost to Velocity ensures this stat reaches its peak and rockets will hit their target as fast as possible. Finish this god roll off with Cluster Bomb which adds some extra damage to the initial blast. The clusters that spread from the rocket explosion can catch enemies on the outskirts of the blast to finish them off.
