Mercury-A god roll guide for Destiny 2 PvE and PvP

The Mercury-A High Impact Framed Longbow is a part of the long list of weapons added alongside Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate. There have been quite a few Bows that made their presence felt in the sandbox. Even the first annual event of the expansion, Solstice, had a Solar Bow return with re-issued perks, making it a top choice in loadouts.

Mercury-A, given its archetype, can deal even more damage and is already one of only two weapons to have a specific perk as a Bow.

This article lists the best perks for the Mercury-A High Impact Longbow for PvE and PvP.

Mercury-A PvE god roll in Destiny 2

The following perks are recommended on the Mercury-A Bow:

• Flexible String for faster draw in the High Impact Framed weapon.
• Natural Fletching for increased stability.
• Attrition Orbs for gaining an Orb of Light with sustained damage.
• Enhanced Kinetic Tremors for a kinetic damage explosion in an AoE after dealing sustained damage to a target.

It is important to get an enhanced version of the Kinetic Tremors, as that version of the perk will activate with two hits from the Bow. Hence, a minimum of Tier 2 with enhanced Kinetic Tremors is recommended.

For other perks, Successful Warmup can work for faster draw time with kills, alongside Precision Instrument for increased damage with precision hits on powerful enemies.
