How to get Alethonym exotic

Episode Revenant introduced a new Season Pass weapon in Destiny 2: the Alethonym primary grenade launcher. Next up, we’ll explain whether this weapon is worth getting and how you can still acquire it even after the season ends. We’ll also talk a bit about the Alethonym catalyst in Destiny 2 since it will also be available.

Alethonym weapon overview

After seven years, Bungie is finally releasing the second primary grenade launcher, this time in the first slot: the Stasis Alethonym with a Micro-Missile Archetype.

It works quite simply: Alethonym final blows create floating Vestiges that are attracted to the player from up to ten meters away, and collecting them fills the Vestigial Alchemy Bar. Once you reach 50% energy, you’ll be able to create Special Ammo for you and your teammates by holding the reload button, and once you gain 100%, Heavy Ammo will apperar.

During the Episode: Revenant Showcase, One for All was spotted as a trait on this weapon, so it’s safe to assume that this perk will be part of the Alethonym catalyst.

Should I get Alethonym in Destiny 2?

The answer is pretty evident since obtaining the Alethonym exotic weapon in Destiny 2 isn’t too tricky. Alethonym is definitely worth your attention, as it is currently the only weapon capable of generating ammo for your fireteam. It can be extremely useful in GMs or before damage phases in Dungeons and Raids.

Now, let’s find out how to get this grenade launcher in the Revenant season and after it ends.

Alethonym obtain during Episode: Revenant 

As with all previous seasons, players with the purchased Episode will be able to claim this exotic as soon as they log into the game, receiving it from the first level of the Season Pass. Others will have to grind a bit, as you’ll need to reach level 40. However, it can be done relatively quickly by completing Seasonal Challenges.

Alethonym obtain after Episode: Revenant 

After the Episode: Revenant ends, the only way to obtain Alethonym will be by purchasing it from the Monument to Lost Light. You will be able to do this starting February 4, 2025, and the cost for this exotic will be 125,000 Glimmer, one Exotic Cipher, and one Ascendant Shard.

How to get Alethonym Catalyst in Destiny 2

As of right now, you can’t obtain Alethonym Catalyst. You need to wait for Revenant Act 2 and get this catalyst from the Battle Pass on level 145. After the season ends, the D2 Alethonym Catalyst will be obtainable through ritual activities, meaning it will drop randomly by just playing.

wow. Have to read halfway to the bottom just to see that they don’t know how to get it. It’s obtained in the act 2 section of the season pass btw. Just like the one for red death.
