Destiny 2 Equilibrium Dungeon Loot Overview
The new Equilibrium dungeon in Destiny 2 brings a fresh set of weapons and armor for players who love chasing god rolls and optimizing their builds. If you are trying to squeeze every bit of performance from your Guardian on PC, knowing exactly what drops from each encounter will save you a lot of time and wasted runs.
Equilibrium introduces seven new weapons, including a standout exotic combat bow that looks like it came straight out of Star Wars. On top of that, there is a sword focused armor set designed to supercharge melee and sword play, which pairs perfectly with the new Praxic Blade for players who have finished the Renegades campaign.
Below is a clear breakdown of what you can earn in this dungeon and which encounter you should farm depending on the loot you are chasing.
All New Weapons and Armor in Equilibrium
The Equilibrium dungeon adds a mix of Solar, Arc, Void and Stasis weapons that cover a wide range of archetypes. This gives PC players a lot of flexibility to match their loadout to their preferred playstyle or to fine tune performance for endgame content like Grandmaster Nightfalls and raids.
Here are the weapons you can find in Equilibrium:
- Heirloom Exotic Solar combat bow that fires explosive bolts and can apply anti unstoppable stun. This is the Chewbacca style bowcaster of Destiny 2 and a strong pick for high level content where stunning champions is essential.
- Zealous Ideal Solar auto rifle. A reliable primary that can be rolled for solid add clear or sustained damage depending on the perks you chase.
- Voltaic Shade Arc scout rifle. Great for long range engagements and staying safe while still contributing damage.
- Bitter End Arc machine gun. Ideal for heavy weapon slots when you want high sustained fire against waves of enemies.
- High Tyrant Void pulse rifle. Pulse rifles remain a strong pick in many activities and Void synergy can plug into a variety of builds.
- Conspiracy Honed Stasis sniper rifle. A strong option for precision damage while also enabling Stasis focused builds.
- Sullen Claw Void lightweight sword. With the new armor set bonuses this sword can become a devastating close range option.
Alongside the weapons, the dungeon features the Equilibrium armor set. This is tuned heavily around sword gameplay and can dramatically change how effective your melee and heavy weapon play feels, especially for aggressive players on keyboard and mouse who like to dive into groups of enemies.
The set bonuses work like this:
- Two piece bonus Combat Meditation Sword hits return grenade and class ability energy. You get extra energy if Blade Focus is active. This lets you loop your abilities faster simply by staying in close with your sword.
- Four piece bonus Blade Focus Briefly guarding with a sword prepares Blade Focus. Once it is readied, hitting enemies with your sword boosts your sword damage and increases lunge distance for a moderate duration. For PC players this can feel incredibly snappy and responsive, turning your Guardian into a fast moving blender in close quarters.
Combined with the right sword and class build, these bonuses can create a strong feedback loop of ability uptime and melee pressure that feels great in both dungeons and other PvE activities.
Equilibrium Loot Table: What Drops Where
Knowing which encounter drops which items is key if you want to minimize grind and go straight for your target roll. Equilibrium has three main encounters: Harvester, Harrow and Dredgen Sere. Each one has its own focused loot pool, and the final encounter also offers the exotic bow.
Here is how the loot is distributed across the dungeon.
Encounter by Encounter Loot Breakdown
Harvester encounter
- Weapons: Zealous Ideal and Voltaic Shade
- Armor: Arms, Chest, Legs
If you are chasing a Solar auto rifle roll on Zealous Ideal or a specific perk combination on the Arc scout Voltaic Shade, this is the encounter to farm. Since it also drops three of the main armor pieces you can start building toward the two piece Combat Meditation bonus fairly quickly.
Harrow encounter
- Weapons: Conspiracy Honed, Bitter End, Voltaic Shade, High Tyrant
- Armor: Helmet, Arms, Class Item
Harrow is your go to encounter if you want a precise Stasis sniper in Conspiracy Honed or the Arc machine gun Bitter End. It also offers another shot at Voltaic Shade along with the Void pulse rifle High Tyrant. On the armor side you can round out your helmet and class item while still farming for that four piece Blade Focus setup.
Dredgen Sere final encounter
- Exclusive Exotic: Heirloom exotic Solar combat bow
- Weapons: Sullen Claw plus all other dungeon weapons
- Armor: All Equilibrium armor pieces
The final boss is the only source of Heirloom, the exotic bow, making it the main target for players who want that explosive bolt fantasy and champion stun utility in a single package. You can also earn Sullen Claw here and every other weapon from the dungeon, as well as any armor piece.
In practice this means you can use the first two encounters to target specific items and then rely on repeated clears of Dredgen Sere to fill out missing slots and chase the exotic. For PC players who care about efficiency, it is often worth checkpointing the encounter you want and repeatedly farming it until you get your desired roll.
Whether you are building a sword centric melee monster or a long range precision setup with scout and sniper rifles, the Equilibrium dungeon has strong options that plug neatly into modern Destiny 2 builds. Understanding the loot table just helps you get there faster and makes every run feel more purposeful.
