Destiny 2: How to Acquire Graviton Spike

Graviton Spike is a new Exotic in Destiny 2, arriving in the Edge of Fate. It is a dual-affinity Hand Cannon that can switch between Arc and Stasis modes. Players can only acquire the Hand Cannon after completing the Edge of Fate campaign. You must pick up the quest from Lodi in Caldera. Once acquired, there are three intrinsics and four catalysts available for the weapon, which we will cover in a separate article. Graviton Spike is craftable.
