Gjallarhorn is | ==Gameplay== | ||
Gjallarhorn is commonly regarded by the playerbase as one of the most overpowered weapons in ''Destiny'', especially during the later half of Destiny 1 Year 1. The weapon was considered to be essentially required to play higher-level activities; for example, many of the LFG posts during Year 1 often included the phrase "Gjallarhorn Req.", meaning that if a player joined without the weapon, they would be kicked from the activity. | |||
Another example of its dominance has to do with how many times it was sold by Xur. In the second week of Destiny 1, Xur sold the weapon to the players. Unfortunately, due to how early Destiny was in its life span many refused to spend Strange Coins on such a "weak" weapon. Many viewed the perks of tracking and wolf pack rounds as too simple or underpowered. The weapon would then go on a nearly year-long drought, with it only ever being sold once more a few weeks prior to the start of Year 2. | |||

Gjallarhorn's special perk is "Wolfpack Rounds", wherein rounds fired from this weapon split into tracking cluster missiles upon detonation of the main warhead. This adds to the overall damage of a single round and thus can down high-level enemies and/or bosses in a short amount of time, or take out large groups of lower-tier enemies. In ''[[Rise of Iron]]'', there is a quest available for players to forge their own Gjallarhorn after the main story is completed. | Gjallarhorn's special perk is "Wolfpack Rounds", wherein rounds fired from this weapon split into tracking cluster missiles upon detonation of the main warhead.
