How to Acquire the Mistral Lift in Destiny 2

The Mistral Lift is a time-limited reward exclusive to Destiny 2's Dawning event. To obtain it, you'll need to visit Eva Levante. She'll exchange one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits for the Mistral Lift. She also sells Festive Engrams (one Gift in Return and 10 Dawning Spirits), offering a chance to receive the Mistral Lift, though not guaranteed.

Gifts in Return are earned by baking Dawning treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and gifting them to NPCs. Dawning Spirits are the event's currency, obtained by completing Dawning quests and bounties available daily from Eva. Once you've gathered the necessary resources, visit Eva to purchase the Mistral Lift directly or try your luck with a Festive Engram. You can repeat this process until you obtain your desired roll.

Destiny 2 Mistral Lift God Roll

While Linear Fusion Rifles haven't always dominated the Destiny 2 meta, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, particularly for solo players. The recommended god roll is:

Withering Gaze and Bait and Switch are key. Withering Gaze debuffs enemies, and Bait and Switch provides a 30% damage boost (after a brief ADS period). While Envious Assassin is a viable alternative to Withering Gaze for group play, both perks are excellent choices. Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and Handling masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity.

While not ideal for PvP, the Mistral Lift's PvE performance, especially with this god roll, makes it a worthwhile acquisition for solo players. For more Destiny 2 tips and guides, check out The Escapist.
