Destiny 2: The Best Rolls On The Vesper's Host Dungeon Weapons
Vesper's Host might have the strongest loot pool we've seen in a Destiny 2 dungeon. This dungeon drops four unique weapons that have some S-tier perk combinations, including some strange synergies that you wouldn't expect. Trigger Explosive Light during a DPS phase, inflict Jolt from sustained fire, or gain wallhacks just by shooting a Fusion Rifle.

PostsThe VS line of weapons are some of Destiny's strongest offerings, and they all have multiple god roll perk combinations you should be chasing. In this guide, we go over the best rolls you can find on every weapon from Vesper's Host, including the meta-defining VS Chill Inhibitor and Gravitic Arrest.
VS Chill Inhibitor
VS Chill Inhibitor might be the strongest Grenade Launcher in the game, at least as far as PvE is concerned. This is the first Rapid-Fire GL that can get Envious Arsenal with Bait and Switch, auto-reloading this weapon whenever you damage a target with your other two weapons. If you run multiple Envious Arsenal weapons, most of which are on the new seasonal guns, you effectively never have to reload.
That's not the only combination worth farming for either. You can also get Attrition Orbs on this weapon, a first for a Heavy GL. This will generate Orbs of Power from sustained damage, which can then proc Explosive Light to greatly increase your damage. It's the only GL that can trigger Explosive Light during a DPS phase like this, although we doubt it'll outperform the Envious Arsenal roll—unless your entire fireteam is using it, in which case this roll is leagues better.
This weapon can also get Chill Clip in the second trait column. Consider keeping a roll with Chill Clip if you frequently farm Grandmaster Nightfalls.
As for PvP, VS Chill Inhibitor might not be the objective best option, but it's still a serviceable weapon. Demolitionist and Chain Reaction is a decent combination for general use in 6v6 and 3v3 modes. Try to farm for a Blast Radius roll to improve the gun's consistency.

VS Gravitic Arrest
We haven't seen powercreep in Fusion Rifles quite like this since Lightfall. This is the first Fusion Rifle to get Withering Gaze, a variant of Box Breathing that loads a burst of Weakening projectiles if you ADS for a short duration. Debuffs have usually been exclusive to Exotics and abilities, so having the ability to debuff targets with your Special weapons opens up some loaodut flexibility in PvE.
PvP is where this weapon really gets to flex its power. WIthering Gaze is absurdly strong when paired with Stylish Executioneron Hunters, giving you invisibility and wallhacks just for killing someone. Throw on Repulsor Brace for even more synergy. If you're looking for a less niche roll, this is also the first Fusion to get Closing Time, effectively Opening Shot that scales based on your magazine size. Your bolts effectively bend towards targets when your magazine is close to empty.

PostsVS Pyroelectric Propellant
If you never got your hands on a Summoner from Trials of Osiris, the VS Pyroelectric Propellant fulfills a similar niche. It's a 600 RPM Auto Rifle that has some S-tier consistency perks for PvP and strong add clear options for PvE. Eddy Current with Jolting Feedback is surprisingly solid roll. Sustained damage will inflict Jolt on targets, and killing those enemies will trigger Amplified, greatly buffing Eddy Current's reload bonus.
We also highly recommend Attrition Orbs with Onslaught.
Crucible players can juice the range on this gun with Fragile Focus. With a good roll, you're looking at an impressive 34 meters of effective range on this weapon. Better yet, you can pair this with Kill Clip for a monstrous 0.6s TTK. And if Kill Clip isn't your style, rock Target Lock for a more forgiving optimal TTK in duels. VS Pyroelectric Propellant has virtually no weaknesses.

VS Velocity Baton
There's one reason you'd use this gun: Attrition Orbs. Velocity Baton is an Area-Denial Grenade Launcher, which means that each trigger pull will activate Attrition Orbs (twice if Enhanced). This is nothing short of S-tier from a utility standpoint. Instantly trigger surge mods on your armor, ramp up Feast of Light stacks, or build up Super energy just by firing this gun. You can even throw on Demolitionist or Unrelenting for even more utility.
This archetype is absolutely terrible in PvP and generally isn't worth using, but that Attrition Orbs tech works here as well. If you're going to use this GL for any reason, it should be to spawn Orbs of Power. Under-Over at least makes this weapon a decent counter to Warlock Rifts.
