Abyssal Edge god roll guide for Destiny 2 PvE and PvP

Abyssal Edge is the newest Sword released in Destiny 2 Heresy. It is a Strand Wave Framed Sword, a new archetype family introduced in The Final Shape expansion. Summum Bonum is the only Legendary Sword available with the Wave Framed archetype, which is tied to the Salvation's Edge Raid.

Hence, anyone new to the game looking for a more accessible Sword with the same archetype should have Abyssal Edge on their radar.

This article lists the best perks on the Abyssal Edge Sword for PvE and PvP.

Here is a list of all perks recommended on Abyssal Edge for PvE:

  • Hungry Edge for increased magazine and ammo capacity.
  • Enduring Guard for increased Guard Endurance and inventory size.
  • Flash Counter for emitting a blast after guarding attacks from targets. The blast can disorient targets.
  • Redirection for a stack of increased damage after defeating minor enemies. This stack can also be gained after deflecting damage towards an enemy.

The aforementioned combination is great with the Stronghold Exotic Gauntlet of Titans. However, if you want a strong boss damage option, go for Relentless Strikes and Surrounded. Slice and Threadling is a great alternative for clearing out rooms.

  • Honed Edge for increased damage.
  • Burst Guard for Guard Resistance and Stability.
  • Flash Counter for emitting a blast after guarding attacks from targets. The blast can disorient targets.
  • Surrounded for increased damage when multiple enemies are nearby.

Valiant Charge can be used in place of Flash Counter, as the former grants increased Sword Lunge after blocking damage.
