Destiny 2 Locus Locutus usage and location guide

As mentioned, the Locus Locutus' archetype encourages players to use it against Guardians in Destiny 2. While there are many versions of Adaptive Framed Sniper Rifles, having one more to the collection can certainly help in load-outs for various activities and builds. Adaptive Framed weapons can fall short in terms of damage and range.

However, it makes up by granting players a feel to traverse quickly around maps. Additionally, any base Handling on Adaptive weapons are significantly higher than Aggressive archetypes. With Exotics such as the Ophidian Aspect, Warlocks can be quick when it comes to switching weapons while peeking.

The best way to obtain the weapon is by earning enough Witch's Engram and decoding on the Ritual table. Some of the minor Arcana cards can also guarantee a red-border drop from the Ritual Table upon using a Witch's Engram.
