How to Obtain the Monte Carlo Catalyst in Destiny 2

If you’re a Destiny 2 player, you’ll be thrilled to know that the Monte Carlo Catalyst has finally made its debut. Introduced during Season of the Witch, this exotic auto rifle has received a shiny visual upgrade as well as a cool new perk thanks to its new Catalyst. If you’ve had the Monte Carlo sitting in your vault, now is the time to give it another go. In this article, we’ll discuss how to obtain the Monte Carlo Catalyst, its quest steps, and the perk you’ll obtain from your efforts. Let’s dive in!

Step 1: Completing Strikes, Gambit, and Crucible Matches

In order to obtain the Monte Carlo Catalyst in Destiny 2, you’ll need to participate in Strikes, Gambit matches, and Crucible matches. The Catalyst is a possible drop from any of these activities. However, it’s important to note that seasonal activities like Altars of Summoning do not apply. So, make sure to focus on Strikes, Gambit, and Crucible matches for a chance to obtain the Catalyst. Good luck!

Step 2: Unlocking the Monte Carlo Catalyst

Once you’ve obtained the Monte Carlo Catalyst, you’ll need to unlock it in full. This can be done by defeating 700 enemies. While it may seem like a high number, you’ll tally up the enemy kills fairly quickly as you participate in various PVE activities. There’s no need to worry about a specific location or enemy type, which makes the process more convenient. Just keep playing and the kills will add up!

The Monte Carlo Catalyst Perk: Stochastic Vengeance

Now, let’s talk about the perk you’ll receive with the Monte Carlo Catalyst in Destiny 2 – Stochastic Vengeance. This added perk complements the weapon’s original perks, particularly Markov Chain. With Stochastic Vengeance, every five attacks of Markov Chain will alternate the weapon’s fire mode between your default melee attack and Monte Carlo’s bayonet. If you successfully hit an enemy with the bayonet, you’ll gain melee energy, empowering your next melee hit. This perk adds a fun synergy to the weapon for players who enjoy close-quarter combat. Plus, the bayonet animation adds a satisfying touch to the gameplay.

Conclusion

The Monte Carlo Catalyst in Destiny 2 is definitely worth pursuing. With its shiny visual revamp and the new perk, Stochastic Vengeance, this exotic auto rifle offers an enhanced gameplay experience. So, dust off your Monte Carlo and delve into Strikes, Gambit, and Crucible matches to increase your chances of obtaining the Catalyst. Enjoy the thrill of combat and make the most of the bayonet animation as you progress. Good luck, Guardians!
