History of Prometheus Lens

Prometheus Lens is an Exotic Trace Rifle dealing Solar damage, with a flavor quote from Cayde-6.

Overview

Its intrinsic perk (as named by one source) is Prismatic Inferno: it fires a continuous Solar trace beam. The trait Flame Refraction returns ammo to the magazine on kills, extending beam time. It excels against groups but struggles against single high-health bosses.

Acquisition

• Exotic engrams and extremely rare world drops (item game data).
• Older sources also list Xûr, Crucible rank-ups and Pinnacle rewards; these may be outdated.

Catalyst

The Prometheus Catalyst drops at random from Heroic or Nightfall Strikes. Defeat 500 enemies with the weapon (kills before you obtain it count) to unlock it. It adds +18 Stability and +18 Handling.
