How to Acquire the Mistral Lift

The Mistral Lift is a unique reward from Destiny 2's Dawning event, available for a limited time only. You'll need to acquire it from Eva Levante. The exchange requires one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits. Eva also offers Festive Engrams (one Gift in Return and 10 Dawning Spirits), but the Mistral Lift isn't guaranteed.

To obtain a Gift in Return, bake Dawning treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and present them to NPCs. Dawning Spirits are earned by completing daily Dawning quests and bounties from Eva.

Once you've gathered enough Gifts and Spirits, visit Eva to purchase the Mistral Lift directly or a Festive Engram. Repeat as needed to achieve your desired roll.

The Ideal Mistral Lift Roll (God Roll)

While Linear Fusion Rifles aren't currently meta in Destiny 2 PvP, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, especially for solo players. Here's the recommended god roll:

The key perks are Withering Gaze (enemy debuffs) and Bait and Switch (30% damage boost after aiming down sights). While requiring ADS for a second, the damage increase makes this weapon incredibly effective in PvE encounters. Consider Envious Assassin instead of Withering Gaze for group play, but both are strong options.

Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and a Handling masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity.

While not ideal for PvP, the Mistral Lift's PvE performance makes it a worthwhile acquisition. Check The Escapist for more Destiny 2 guides and news.
