The Palindrome updated god roll guide for Destiny 2 PvE and PvP

The Palindrome returns in the Destiny 2 loot pool as part of the Nightfall Strikes. With the launch of Grandmaster Nightfall in Episode Heresy, Bungie has confirmed that the returning Hand Cannon will be available in both standard and Adept versions, allowing players to get the perks for all activities. One significant change to this weapon is its core element, which has now been changed to Arc, from Void.

This article lists the best perks for The Palindrome in PvE and PvP.

The following perks are recommended on The Palindrome for PvE:

Chambered Compensator for increased Stability and reduced recoil
Tactical Mag for increased reload speed and Stability

Explosive Payload is a great replacement in the third column if you are looking to defeat a more challenging combatant. Master of Arms and Desperate Measures are decent perks for increased damage against targets.

Magnificent Howl for getting rounds with increased damage and Range. The number of rounds is determined by the number of precision kills made before reloading. Kills under the buff extend the duration.

Some great alternatives in the third column include To the Pain and Closing Time for increased stats, alongside Opening Shot and Desperate Measures.

How to get The Palindrome in Destiny 2

The Palindrome can be obtained from Nightfall Strikes. However, the weapon must be active in the loot pool of any given week. The Adept version of the weapon can drop from Grandmaster Nightfall Strikes.

Vanguard Focusing on Zavala also drops these weapons in exchange for a normal Engram for the normal version of the weapon, and an added cost of Nightfall Adept Ciphers for the Adept version.
