Leave your Cold Comfort and Apex Predator at home.
Destiny 2's Episode: Heresy gave the Vault of Glass raid weapons quite the glow up, but none benefitted more from the update than Hezen Vengeance.
This Aggressive Frame Solar rocket launcher, thanks to the new Timelost Magazine origin trait, is now the best rocket launcher in the game — but only with the right perks.
We've got you covered: Here's the god roll for Hezen Vengeance in Destiny 2.
What is the Hezen Vengeance god roll in Destiny 2?

Hezen Vengeance PvE god roll
Column | Perk(s) |
---|---|
Barrel | Quick Launch |
Magazine | Impact Casing |
Trait 1 | Envious Arsenal Auto-Loading Holster |
Trait 2 | Bait and Switch |
Origin Trait, Masterwork, Weapon Mod | Timelost Magazine (Origin Trait) Handling (Masterwork) Aerodynamics (Weapon Mod) |
This weapon was born for PvE use and is right up there among the best rocket launchers in all of Destiny 2.
Timelost Magazine is a big reason why. This new origin perk reloads and overflows the rocket immediately after you use your super. Constantly reloading the weapon keeps it overflowed after your super, too, so we're aiming to take advantage of the multiple rockets launched.
There are several ammo perks here but Envious Arsenal is the best. Dealing damage with your other weapons reloads the weapon for your next use, so continuously switch between your weapons while firing this at a boss.
Overflow and Auto-Loading Holster are solid picks here too, but Envious Arsenal is the best as it also works with your second column trait.
Bait and Switch is the best damage buff in the game for a rocket launcher and, like Envious Arsenal, is designed with weapon switching in mind.
Explosive Light is also a decent pick as it requires less effort but given you'll be firing twice the number of shots (thanks to Timelost Magazine) you'll probably blow through your ammo (and stacks of Ex. Light) very quickly.

Hezen Vengeance PvP god roll
Column | Perk(s) |
---|---|
Barrel | Volatile Launch |
Magazine | Black Powder |
Trait 1 | Cluster Bomb Impulse Amplifier |
Trait 2 | Vorpal Weapon |
Origin Trait, Masterwork, Weapon Mod | Timelost Magazine (Origin Trait) Velocity (Masterwork) Quick Access Sling (Weapon Mod) |
We aren't going all-in on getting Hezen Vengeance for PvP as Heavy ammo is a rarity in the Crucible. That said, there are some pretty decent perks for a PvP rocket launcher available here.
Cluster Bomb increases the likelihood of a multikill with the extra munitions on impact. You can also go for Impulse Amplifier for a near-instant rocket impact with the massive boost to velocity; it comes at the cost of reload speed, but you won't have a second rocket anyway!
The second column is less interesting. Vorpal Weapon guarantees kills against guardians using their Super, so that's my pick here.
How to get Hezen Vengeance in Destiny 2

Hezen Vengeance drops from the Vault of Glass raid, meaning you'll need to link up with a few others if you want this rocket launcher. It drops specifically from the Gatekeeper Labyrinth and Atheon encounters in the raid.
This weapon is craftable. Each week you clear the raid you can select Hezen Vengeance as your red-border Deepsight weapon. Once you've collected five of the rocket launchers, the crafting recipe will be yours at The Enclave.
Clearing Master-level raid encounters in the Vault of Glass has a chance to drop a Timelost version of Hezen Vengeance. This version comes with the curated roll from back in Destiny 1, plus two other perks for you to pick from.
