How to Craft Austringer: A Guide for Destiny 2 players
Destiny 2 is an immensely popular game, and one of the more sought after items is the exotic hand cannon known as the Austringer. This weapon is one of the most powerful and versatile weapons in the game but obtaining it is no easy feat. In this guide, we will be taking a closer look at what it takes to craft an Austringer.
Step One: Obtaining Imperials
To kick off the crafting process, you first need to collect a certain amount of Imperials. These are special coins that you can earn by completing various activities in Destiny 2, such as challenges, bounties, and quests.
You can also obtain Imperials by playing the menagerie activity, which is a six-player game mode where players must complete different tasks to earn rewards. The amount of Imperials you receive varies depending on the task you complete, but completing each run of the menagerie should earn you roughly 200 Imperials.
Step Two: Upgrading your Chalice of Opulence
The Chalice of Opulence is the key to crafting the Austringer and is essential to the process. You can find the chalice in the Quests menu, and it will require upgrading to access the Austringer recipe. To upgrade, you will need to spend some of your Imperials in the chalice upgrade menu.
Step Three: Unlocking the Austringer Recipe
After upgrading your chalice, you will need to unlock the Austringer recipe. You can do this by completing the ‘Imperial Treasure Map’ quest from Werner 99-40 on the Nessus Barge. The quest will lead you to different locations around the game world, and upon completing it, you will receive a perfect rune.
You will then need to slot this perfect rune along with any red rune and any blue rune you have in your chalice to unlock the Austringer recipe. You need to have three charges in your chalice to complete the recipe.
Step Four: Crafting the Austringer
Once you have unlocked the Austringer recipe, you need to start gathering all the necessary ingredients to craft the weapon. You will require 3,000 Glimmer, 25 Imperials, and 4 Runes (which are acquired by completing various activities in the game, such as Nightfalls, Raids, and Menagerie runs).
Once you have all the ingredients, slot them into the chalice, and select the Austringer recipe from the menu and complete it to craft your weapon.
Conclusion
Crafting the Austringer is no easy task, but with the right approach and a little bit of luck, you too can wield one of the most powerful and versatile guns in Destiny 2. Follow the steps we have outlined in this guide, and in no time, you will be able to bring down your foes with ease.
