How to Get Mistral Lift in Destiny 2

Mistral Lift is a time-limited weapon available only during Destiny 2's Dawning event. To acquire it, you'll need to trade with Eva Levante. The exchange requires one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits. While Eva also sells Festive Engrams (1 Gift in Return and 10 Dawning Spirits), these offer a chance at the Mistral Lift, but it's not guaranteed.

Gifts in Return are earned by baking Dawning treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and delivering them to NPCs. Dawning Spirits are the event's currency, obtained by completing daily Dawning quests and bounties from Eva.

Once you have the necessary resources, visit Eva to purchase the Mistral Lift directly or try your luck with a Festive Engram. Repeat this process until you obtain your desired roll.

Destiny 2 Mistral Lift God Roll

Linear Fusion Rifles may not dominate the Destiny 2 meta, but the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, particularly for solo players. Here's a recommended god roll:

The optimal perks are Withering Gaze (for enemy debuffs) and Bait and Switch (for a 30% damage boost after aiming down sights). While requiring a brief ADS, this combination makes the weapon exceptionally powerful in PvE. For group play, Envious Assassin is a viable alternative to Withering Gaze.

Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and a Handling Masterwork further enhance stability and ammo capacity.

While not ideal for PvP, the Mistral Lift's PvE performance makes it a worthwhile acquisition. Consult The Escapist for more Destiny 2 tips and strategies.
