No, this is not a “Territory Denial” grenade launcher.
Some people's first thought when they hear “romantic death” will be Shakespeare's words. Romeo and JulietBut Destiny 2 Players who have been preparing the Call to Arms event for god rolls may want to consider something else: a new Void-focused grenade launcher.
Romantic Death first made a brief appearance during Ash & Iron's Reclaim: New Territories event in September, but the game developer is giving players another chance to get this weapon (and other goodies) until November 25th.
The Call to Arms Grenade Launcher is a Wave Frame, so don't expect it to replace a well-rolled VS Velocity Baton. But as anyone who has used Patience will tell you, Wave Frame can be deadly in the right circumstances. Here are our PvE god rolls for romantic death in Destiny 2based on the list of perks on light.gg.
God of Romantic Death in PvE in Destiny 2

- Launcher: Unstable starting, linear compensator or fast starting
- Meg: High speed rounds
- First bonus: Repulsor Brace, The Power of Proximity, Feeding Frenzy or Statistics for Everyone
- Second bonus: Destabilizing rounds, chain reaction or one for all
Repulsor Brace And Destabilizing rounds is a proven Abyss combination. It's hard to go wrong with this, especially with area damage weapons. This pairing gives you free top shields in any subclass, so you don't have to be on Void to benefit from it. The repulsor brace itself can be good enough if you use the purple element, however leaving the other perk open to your taste.
Since Romantic Death is a one-shot grenade launcher, having perks that speed up the reload is key unless you're using that slot for specific build needs like Repulsor Brace (for Void) or Power Proximity for melee energy. In this case Feeding the madness This is a nice kill-based perk with a strong reload speed boost, and the grenade launcher's area of effect allows you to get multiple kills with a single pull of the trigger. Chain reaction still quite strong despite his nerf Final formtherefore this perk is also present in our god roll.
Statistics for everyone also works for this purpose, but gets even better with a different perk combination. It's easy to hit three targets in quick succession, so One for all king in this department. The existence of statistics for everyone in the third column is also not random, so use this combination if you need larger numbers.
Alternatively, for melee builds that are in the thick of combat, Proximity power Improves your melee stats after killing an enemy within a 15 meter radius. If you go this route, you might also want to follow Surrounded for more damage, although we'd probably recommend One for All as a safer option. Aggregate fee may also work in some scenarios, but it's not our first choice either.
