Continue reading to discover the Rapid Fire Ranger, its benefits and many other details.

Rapid Fire Ranger In Destiny 2

Rapid Fire Ranger is a legendary artifact mod in Destiny 2, which can be obtained from the Seasonal Artifact.

It is a void mod that weakens the enemy within 25 meters of the player.

Even though the description from the game explains that the artifact weakens the enemy for some time.

The artifact weakens the enemy for a whopping total of 24 minutes.

Thanks to a player who discovered this information and shared it on his YouTube channel.

The Weaken debuff causes enemies to take 30% damage from all sources.

However, you must shoot at the enemy precisely, much like the Precision Instrument Perk in Destiny 2.

Benefits Of The Rapid Fire Ranger

The main benefit of the Rapid Fire Ranger is the Weaken debuff damage it does to the Rapid Fire Ranger.

Here are some of them;

1. It is a relatively easy mod to obtain; you just have to hit precision shots.
2. The Rapid Fire Ranger can be used in a variety of builds.
3. This debuff can be stacked with other debuffs, which increases the enemy’s damage.
4. It helps to weaken the enemy for 24 seconds.
5. It can be used in ruthless enemy battles for some cover.

Eventhough there are many benefits of the Rapid Fire Ranger, there are some drawbacks, too.

Some drawbacks of the Rapid Fire Ranger are:

1. It only applies to enemies within 25 meters of the player.
2. Enemies nearer or farther than 25 meters can be challenging to maintain.
3. The mod will also not be effective for enemies resistant to void damage.

Can Rapid Fire Ranger Stack With Other Debuffs?

The question of whether the Rapid Fire Ranger can be stacked with other debuffs is debated by many players.

Therefore, a player tested whether the Rapid Fire Ranger could be stacked with other debuffs, and here are the results.

1. Tether

• Tether applied before Rapid Fire Ranger: 1497 damage with Tether, 30% more damage, no stack with Rapid Fire Ranger.
• Tether applied after Rapid Fire Ranger: 1475 damage with Tether, 30% more damage no stack with Rapid Fire Ranger.

2. Tractor

• Tractor applied before Rapid Fire Ranger: No stack with Rapid Fire Ranger, 30% more damage.
• Tractor applied after Rapid Fire Ranger: No stack with Rapid Fire Ranger, 30% more damage.

3. Divinity

• Divinity applied before Rapid Fire Ranger: No stack with Rapid Fire Ranger, 15% more damage.
• Divinity applied after Rapid Fire Ranger: No stack with Rapid Fire Ranger, 15% more damage.

4. Undermining

• Undermining applied before Rapid Fire Ranger: No stack with Rapid Fire Ranger, 15% more damage.
• Undermining applied after Rapid Fire Ranger: No stack with Rapid Fire Ranger, 15% more damage.

5. Void Soul

• Void Soul applied before Rapid Fire Ranger: No stack with Rapid Fire Ranger, 15% more damage.
• Void Soul applied after Rapid Fire Ranger: No stack with Rapid Fire Ranger, 15% more damage.

Therefore, after testing all these other debuffs, it is disappointing that none stack with the Rapid Fire Ranger.

However, one user pointed out that Rapid Fire Ranger can increase the time it weakens the enemy when used with other timed debuffs.

For example, when used with the Tractor Cannon, the Rapid Fire Ranger weakens the enemy for more than 24 seconds.

Other Seasonal Artifacts In Destiny 2

More than 20 seasonal artifacts can provide different perks throughout your gameplay.

In addition, these seasonal artifacts have a division of five columns, and you can allocate up to 12 passive bonuses to buff your character.

Column one unlocks by default. However, other columns require you to unlock a particular bonus amount from previous columns.

• Column 2: 3 unlocked passive bonus
• Column 3: 5 unlocked passive bonus
• Column 4: 7 unlocked passive bonus
• Column 5: 10 unlocked passive bonus

Other seasonal artifact mods from each column are:

1. Column One: Anti-barrier Auto Rifle, Piercing Bowstring, Unstoppable scout rifle, Overload Hand Cannon, and Unstoppable Fusion Rifle.
2. Column Two: Arc/ Strand Siphon Combo, Solar/ Strand Siphon Combo, Void/ Strand Siphon Combo, Origin perk Specialization I, and Diviner’s Discount.
3. Column Three: Thanatotic Tangles, Origin perk Specialization II, Elemental Orbs: Void, Elemental Orbs: Arc, and Elemental Orbs: Solar.
4. Column Four: Overload Machine Guns, Elemental Fury, Communal Pickups, Refreshing Pickups, and Semi-Auto Striker.
5. Column Five: Monochromatic Maestro, Rapid Fire Ranger, Elemental Embrace, Elemental Munitions, and Frenzied Stacks.

The Bottom Line

Rapid Fire Ranger is a legendary artifact mod introduced in the Season of the Witch in Destiny 2.

It is a powerful debuff that can weaken the enemy for up to 24 seconds.

However, other debuffs cannot stack with the Rapid Fire Ranger to increase the enemy damage.

Having said that, when used with other timed debuffs, the weakened enemy damage time increases.

So, use the Rapid Fire Ranger perk and other seasonal artifacts perk to make your gameplay efficient.
