Destiny 2’s Iron Banner weapons are some of the best PvE weapons in the sandbox, like the Multimach SMG and the Tinasha’s Mastery Sidearm. Other Iron Banner weapons like the Felwinter’s Lie Shotgun have cemented themselves in the Crucible as the top-rated PvP weapons for any loadout. If you’re wondering which weapons to attune and farm for, this guide will guide you through all the best Iron Banner weapons and perk combinations to look out for.
Tinasha’s Mastery
This sidearm is one of the few weapons that can deal with both Unstoppable and Overload champions at the same time using the Chill Clip perk. When paired with the Air Trigger perk that increases this weapon’s ammo generation, you can make this weapon a pseudo-Primary weapon that deals Special weapon damage.

Felwinter’s Lie
Felwinter’s Lie is the only shotgun that comes with the Shot Package shotgun archetype, which gives the weapon a compact spread pattern that groups more tightly when you ADS. This makes Felwinter’s Lie one of the most consistent shotguns for PvP that can one-shot Guardians at range.

Multimach CCX
The Multimach SMG is considered one of the best PvE workhorse weapons for its ability to print Orbs of Power very easily. While most weapons can roll with Attrition Orbs, Multimach can also roll with Kinetic Tremors, causing each hit to contribute towards printing an Orb of Power for your abilities.

Point of the Stag
This bow is only one of two bows with the powerful perk of Voltshot, with the only other bow, Non-Denoument, dropping only in the Salvation’s Edge raid. What makes Voltshot so potent on bows is that you are constantly reloading a bow every time you take a shot, which gives you maximum Jolt uptime for ad clearing.
