| '''Legend of Acrius''' is an [[Exotic]] {{icon|Arc}} Heavy [[Shotgun]] released in ''[[Destiny 2]]''. This weapon was previously earned by completing the "[[Imperial Invitation]]" [[Quest (Destiny 2)|quest]] until ''[[Beyond Light]]'', when it became available for purchase through the [[Monument To Lost Lights]].
| | Legend of Acrius is an exotic [[Shotgun]] in [[Destiny 2]]. |

|
| ==Perks== | | ==Lore== |
| *Intrinsic: '''Shock Blast''' - This weapon fires blasts of high-damage Arc energy that overpenetrates enemies.
| | '''"In the Cabal legend, a hero seeks to possess the sun. He succeeds. Then, he becomes Emperor. The Cabal… are not a subtle people." —Tyra Karn''' |
| *'''[[lightgg:202670084|Full Bore]]''' - Barrel optimized for distance.<br>
| | |
| **Greatly increases range.
| | That really is the entire myth. A Cabal named Acrius desires the sun, and he takes it and becomes the first Emperor of the Cabal. Other scholars have already noted the parallels and differences with our own ancient Earth myth of Icarus, which famously has a far more humbling ending. I am more interested in how Cabal leaders throughout history have deployed this legend as a rhetorical and political justification for conquest. Among the most relevant such figures is Dominus Ghaul himself, who appears to have a personal affinity for the Acrius myth. I must also note here that, while linguistic analysis of the Cabal language and its many dialects is incomplete, they do not appear to have a word for the concept of “hubris.” —Research notes of Tyra Karn |
| **Decreases stability.
| | |
| **Slightly decreases handling speed.
| | ==Gameplay== |
| *'''[[lightgg:3142289711|Accurized Rounds]]''' - This weapon can fire longer distances.<br/>
| | It is a wieldable version of the [[Cabal Slug Shotgun]], dealing an incredible amount of damage from longer ranges than normal at the expense of having a very limited magazine size. The Legend of Acrius is available after completing the [[Red War]] campaign and the Adventure [[Invitation from the Emperor]], after which an exotic quest begins that requires the player to kill Cabal on [[Nessus]], then complete the [[Leviathan]] raid. This weapon can be upgraded further to unlock more perks by completing more challenges. |
| **Increases range.
| |
| *Exotic Trait: '''Long March''' - Detect enemies on your radar from farther away.
| |
| *'''[[lightgg:4259401308|Fitted Stock]]''' - This stock makes the weapon stable but heavy.<br/>
| |
| **Increases stability.
| |
| **Moderately controls recoil.
| |
| **Slightly decreases handling speed.

| Previously, the [[Exotic Catalyst]] could be obtained as a random drop from completing encounters in the Prestige version of the ''[[Leviathan (raid)|Leviathan]]'' [[raid]]. Now it is acquired from [[Nightfall]] completions as a rare drop. After 500 kills with the weapon, the catalyst unlocks the following perks and traits:
| | '''The Emperor's Pleasure''' - Equip this [[Weapon Ornament]] to change the appearance of Legend of Acrius. |
| *'''Deeper Pockets''': Increased ammo reserves.
| | '''Warbeast Skin''' - Equip this [[Weapon Ornament]] to change the appearance of Legend of Acrius. |
| **'''+10 Inventory Size'''
| |
| **'''+4 Magazine Size'''
| |
| **'''+40 Reload Speed'''
| |
| *'''[[lightgg:806159697|Trench Barrel]]''': After a successful melee hit, this weapon gains increased damage, handling, and reload speed for a short duration—or until three shots are fired.

| *This is the first of four [[Exotic]] weapons based after real Cabal weaponry, that being a [[Cabal Slug Shotgun]]. The others being the [[Skyburner's Oath]] ([[Slug Rifle]]), [[Heir Apparent]] ([[Heavy Slug Thrower]]), and the [[Grand Overture]] ([[Cabal Slug Launcher]]).
