Does Touch of Malice Have a Catalyst?

Destiny 2 raids not only offer a thrilling challenge but also a chance to acquire exclusive weapons and armor that cannot be found elsewhere in the game. These items often boast powerful traits, making them some of the best in the game. In addition to cosmetic items, players can also obtain unique Exotics, such as the Touch of Malice, which have distinctive features that set them apart from other weapons.

How to Get Touch of Malice

Players can obtain the Touch of Malice raid Exotic exclusively from the reprised King's Fall raid in Destiny 1, with Oryx being the final encounter that drops this weapon. In contrast to Destiny 1, where obtaining Touch of Malice required completing a quest, it is now a random drop for players who defeat Oryx on both Normal and Master difficulty in Destiny 2. However, the Season of the Deep has brought about a change in the drop rate, with players now able to permanently increase it by completing a set of challenging Triumphs in King's Fall. The specific Triumphs that boost the drop rate for Touch of Malice are listed below.

The Grass is Always Greener

Overzealous

Devious Thievery

Brand Buster

Gaze Amaze

Overwhelming Power

The Touch of Malice, an Exotic weapon, possesses a distinctive set of characteristics like all others. Its last bullet inflicts additional damage but at the cost of the player's health, which is then restored when the last round regenerates. Moreover, players can recover some health by defeating three targets in quick succession. However, if players are not careful, they may accidentally cause their own demise with this gun's trait.

Does Touch of Malice Have a Catalyst?

Furthermore, Touch of Malice also possesses the Charged With Blight trait, which allows precision hits to drain an enemy's life force and generate a charge for the weapon. Once the charge reaches ten, players can utilize the alternate fire function to fire at a Taken Captain blight instead of a conventional bullet.

To enhance the power of Touch of Malice, players must complete a series of challenging puzzles during the King's Fall raid. The final step involves successfully dunking orbs at the basketball court. Once the catalyst is acquired and equipped, Touch of Malice gains a unique trait that further elevates its abilities.

Rapid Hit: Rapid precision hits provide a temporary increase to reload speed and stability.
