'''The Mountaintop''' is a [[Legendary]] [[Grenade Launcher]] acquired from the [[Crucible]] pinnacle [[Quest]] of the same name given in Season 5 of ''[[Destiny 2]]''. It is the second Kinetic grenade launcher in the game after [[The Militia's Birthright]], and has effectively zero range drop-off with shells experiencing virtually entirely linear travel, technically making it the most accurate grenade launcher in the game. It was later re-issued in ''[[Into the Light (update)|Into the Light]]''
 
'''The Mountaintop''' is a [[Legendary]] {{icon|Kinetic}} [[Grenade Launcher]] acquired from the [[Crucible]] pinnacle [[Quest (Destiny 2)|quest]] of the same name given in ''[[Season of the Forge]]''. It is the second Breech grenade launcher in the game after [[The Militia's Birthright]], and has effectively zero range drop-off with shells experiencing virtually entirely linear travel, technically making it the most accurate grenade launcher in the game.
 
During the ''[[Into the Light (update)|Into the Light]]'' update, a [[BRAVE Arsenal]] version of the weapon was introduced with a new appearance, different perks, and a new origin trait. It is available as loot from the [[Onslaught]] activity and can be attuned at the [[Hall of Champions]] to drastically increase its drop rate. A more unique version of this weapon is also available on rare drops with double perks and its own unique [[Weapon Ornament]].

[[Empress Caiatl]] strolled between rows of [[Legionary|Legionaries]] standing at attention.
"I commend you, [[Valus]] [[Saladin]]." The empress projected her voice for the benefit of the soldiers. "Your training has made the [[Iron War Beast]]s the very tusks of the [[Cabal Empire|empire]]."
Caiatl returned to the head of the formation and gave a nod. Saladin's gravelly voice boomed. "[[Armor]] and [[weapons]] will be stripped and stowed. Hand-to-hand training begins in two cycles. Fall out."
Once the soldiers had dispersed, the empress's tone softened. "Your soldiers are exemplary. Yet you seem… unsatisfied."
"Many years ago," Saladin replied, "at Twilight Gap, I gave an order that was disobeyed."
"A rash attack?" The empress inquired.
Saladin shook his head. "The opposite. A retreat."
"In retrospect, it was a mistake," he continued. "If not for my soldiers' insubordination, we would have lost."
"I drilled the Iron War Beasts on [[Darkness]]-based tactics from the [[Hive]] to [[Clovis Bray I|Clovis Bray]] and back again," Saladin concluded. "I just hope that when their time comes, they have the strength of conviction to defy the [[Light]] with equal ferocity."

*The Mountaintop saw extensive usage in PvE commonly coupled with The Recluse, the duo becoming one of the most popular combinations for endgame activities. Rather ironically, both weapons were originally only obtainable through the Crucible.   
*The Mountaintop saw extensive usage in PvE commonly coupled with [[The Recluse]], the duo becoming one of the most popular combinations for endgame activities. Rather ironically, both weapons were originally only obtainable through the [[Crucible]].
*Because of the popularity of the Mountaintop and the easy of usage of the Micro-Missle perk, the perk was integrated into the frame of the weapon itself and became a new intrinsic frame for its [[BRAVE Arsenal]] iteration.
