Breachlight is back with new elements and perks in Destiny 2 Episode Echoes. As a part of the seasonal arsenal, players can choose to get a god roll as a drop. Hence, the new and improved Sidearm cannot be crafted under any circumstances.

Breachlight now fires Strand damage, allowing everyone to have a decent Darkness primary weapon in their inventory slot.

Having the right balance between Darkness and Light damage is necessary for the new Prismatic subclass, making Breachlight a great addition to the arsenal. This article lists everything related to the latest Breachlight Strand Sidearm.

The following perks are great to have on the Breachlight Sidearm for PvE:

Arrowhead Brake for increased recoil and Handling on the weapon
Appended Mag for increased magazine size
Demolitionist for increased Grenade energy on kills
Hatchling for a chance to spawn Threadlings with precision or rapid kills

Instead of Demolitionist, having a Pugilist for melee energy, or Threat Detector for increased stats with nearby enemies are great picks. You can also look for Adrenaline Junkie alongside the Demolitionist for a complete Grenade build.

The following perks are great for the Breachlight Sidearm for PvP:

Polygonal Rifling for increased Stability on the weapon
Steady Rounds for more Stability
Perpetual Motion for increased Stability, Handling, and reload speed with movement
Adrenaline Junkie for slow damage stack with weapon kills, or a full damage stack with Grenade kill

Vorpal Weapon is another decent perk to have on the fourth column in case you face a roaming Guardian's super.

How to get Breachlight Sidearm in Destiny 2?

Breachlight has been re-issued within the seasonal arsenal of Episode Echoes. Everyone can farm the weapon from the "Breach Executable" activity, or focus it from the Failsafe vendor. However, focusing will require a few steps to unlock. Regardless, it is a good practice to have seasonal Engrams stored for the desired weapon or armor pieces.

To focus on seasonal weapons or armor pieces from Failsafe's inventory, everyone will see a requirement on each gear called "Requires the Act I Engram Focusing Upgrade." To do this, complete seasonal quests until you get "A Rising Chorus: Act I" quest. Next, keep completing the quest steps to eventually get Failsafe's upgrades.
