History of Cloudstrike Catalyst

Revision 8539 by archivist at 2026-10-01 23:45:35

Overview

A triumph for the Cloudstrike Exotic sniper rifle catalyst: defeat 400 combatants with Cloudstrike (Targets defeated 0/400).

How to complete

  1. Get the catalyst first. It is a random drop at the end of core playlist activities (Crucible, Gambit, Vanguard strikes); sources say competitive drop rates improved in Update 7.3.5.
  2. Insert it, then get 400 kills with Cloudstrike. Any activity counts.
  3. Farming tips from the guides: the Shuro Chi checkpoint in Last Wish (many enemies die at once from the lightning-storm perk) or the opening of Grasp of Avarice; bring Raid Banners (from Hawthorne in the Tower) and ammo-finder/reserve mods, since snipers are awkward in PvE.

Rewards

The catalyst adds the Triple Tap perk (three precision hits return a bullet to the magazine) and +25 Handling.

Notes

Seal/category is not stated by the sources opened; unconfirmed.
