Destiny 2: Revenant brings its own Artifact for players to level up in the form of the Slayer Baron Apothecary Satchel. This Artifact introduces some new mechanics for players to enjoy in the form of Boosts, which add another effect to your build. Take a look at all of the perks for the Slayer Baron Apothecary Satchel so you can plan out your pathway to greater power.
The Slayer Baron Apothecary Satchel is the Artifact players will be using during Destiny 2: Revenant. This Artifact is mostly the same as those from previous seasons, except this one features Boosts. By using Eido’s tinctures, players can receive an additional effect from specific perks. As before, you can only have so many perks active at once, with Bungie expected to add more rows throughout each Act.

Kinetic Impacts Sustained damage with a Power Grenade Launcher causes the combatant to emit a shockwave that damages nearby combatants. This shockwave can stun Unstoppable Champions. |
As with most Artifacts, it will be important to pick a few anti-Champion specific perks from the first column. There are also limited options for Unstoppable Champion mods this Episode, except for Pulse Rifle and the final perk, Kinetic Impacts. Ensure your subclass verbs can fill any gaps here.
The fourth column is where things get quite exciting for buildcrafters in Destiny 2: Revenant. Debilitating Wave, especially with the Boost, can spread subclass verbs to nearby foes, including Blind, Weaken, and Slow. Of course, there’s the fan-favorite Concussive Reload, which will weaken a combatant when you land a Grenade Launcher shot.
For the last column, Brain Freeze is an appealing option for Stasis builds as it features a rather unique effect. Freeze combatants and they will be surrounded by a chilling fog that will slow other foes. This will help with add control and may even cycle into a whole lot of damage to high-tier enemies if you can create crystals. Finally, Kinetic Impacts looks to encourage players to lean into Power Grenade Launchers, so keep an eye on Stasis GLs to supplement this perk.
