Gjallarhorn is commonly regarded by the playerbase as one of the most overpowered weapons in ''Destiny'', especially during the later half of Destiny 1 Year 1. The weapon was considered to be essentially required to play higher-level activities; for example, many of the LFG posts during Year 1 often included the phrase "Gjallarhorn Req.", meaning that if a player joined without the weapon, they would be kicked from the activity.

Another example of its dominance has to do with how many times it was sold by Xur. In the second week of Destiny 1, Xur sold the weapon to the players. Unfortunately, due to how early Destiny was in its life span many refused to spend Strange Coins on such a "weak" weapon. Many viewed the perks of tracking and wolf pack rounds as too simple or underpowered. The weapon would then go on a nearly year-long drought, with it only ever being sold once more a few weeks prior to the start of Year 2.

Gjallarhorn remains largely unchanged from its Destiny 1 variant with the exception of having the ability to empower other legendary rocket launchers with Wolfpack rounds, and a catalyst being added onto it. The catalyst grants the weapon an extra shot and, upon defeating a target, spawns a faster, more powerful missile at the targets location.
