In this short build guide, players will be able to one-shot almost any enemy in the game, including other Guardians, with a well-placed throwing knife. What many players don’t know is that these knives can be boosted to ridiculous levels that can compete with the absurdity of even the Titan’s throwing hammers. Armor mods are used to elevate your reload speeds, ability regen, and more to higher levels.

The development team explained in a blog post that some of the armor modes will get buffed, others will get removed. The Weighted Throwing Knife in the Hunter’s Gunslinger subclass is often used to deal some quick damage or outright eliminate important targets. Bungie has announced a revamp of the armor mods in the upcoming Destiny 2: Beyond Light expansion. Throwing knives in “Destiny 2” may sound like a cool gimmick for some but for others, this can be used as a lethal projectile that can kill most targets in one hit when prepared properly.

Salvation's Grip can be used as a less-reliable alternative for Ager's Scepter.

Ager's Scepter is used to stack Precision Hits and freeze opponents for Focusing Lens.

Athrys's Embrace empowers throwing knives to deal increased damage.
