Belisarius-D god roll guide for Destiny 2 PvP and PvE

The Belisarius-D is the second Pulse Rifle to grab the attention of the Destiny 2 community. Like the Relentless from Prophecy, it is also a Strand weapon that drops from the Crucible competitive playlist. The Belisarius-D is also the only weapon of its kind, an Aggressive Framed archetype Pulse Rifle with the Strand element.

Players have also waited a long time since the release of an Aggressive Pulse Rifle after such an archetype was launched in Season of the Seraph. Hence, the new Belisarius-D has some heavy boots to fill, as it must live up to its name and serve everyone in all kinds of activities.

This article will help you select the best perks for the Belisarius-D Pulse Rifle, be it for PvP or PvE.

How to get the Belisarius-D Pulse Rifle in Destiny 2?

The Belisarius-D Pulse Rifle can be earned from the competitive PvP playlist in Season of the Wish. Anyone can open up the Director and complete three matches to get one copy of it with randomized perks. Furthermore, you can also use all three characters to complete three matches every week, until your preferred perk drops for you.

Lastly, the Belisarius-D also contains one particular type of perk that other Aggressive Framed Pulses do not have, and that is the stock. Here, having the Fitted Stock is beneficial for increased recoil control and Stability.
