"Eternity is very close. Can you feel yourself slipping?"
— Weapon description

Necrochasm is an Exotic Auto Rifle in Destiny added by The Dark Below.

Like Thorn, Necrochasm is one of the Weapons of Sorrow; though it would be the first of its kind. It was created by Enkaar, the Anointed from a captured Guardian weapon (likely taken after the Great Disaster) and modified by the Hive to feed on its owner's aggression. Described as a blessing from the Deep, Necrochasm uses the explosions of Cursed Thralls after Crota's brood learned to weaponize them.

Destiny

Perks

  • Intrinsic Perk: Cascade – Melee kills increase the reload speed of this weapon for a short time.
  • Sights:
    • Accurized Ballistics – More range and Impact. Increased recoil.
    • CQB Ballistics – Greatly reduced recoil. Significant penalty to range.
    • Aggressive Ballistics – More predictable recoil. Enhanced Impact. Shorter range and more recoil.
  • Special perks:
    • Cursebringer – Precision kills with this weapon trigger a Cursed Thrall explosion.
  • Stat modifiers:
    • Single Point Sling – Switch weapons faster. Move quicker while aiming.
    • Flared Magwell – Reload this weapon even faster.
    • Fitted Stock – Increases weapon stability.
  • Primary perks:
    • Zen Moment – Causing damage with this weapon increases its stability.

Acquisition

It requires obtaining the Common Auto Rifle Husk of the Pit; upgrading it to the Legendary Auto rifle Eidolon Ally; and upgrading that to Necrochasm with a Crux of Crota rewarded from completing Crota's End on Hard Mode, or with the essence of the Oversoul from completing the 390 Light version of Crota's End.

In Year 3, the Husk of the Pit can be obtained via killing any Hive Ogre, although the drop is not guaranteed. The weapon is then upgraded to Eidolon Ally through killing a certain amount of a randomly rolled Hive enemy. After the Husk has been upgraded, the player must then kill Omnigul, Will of Crota and then obtain the Essence of the Oversoul from killing Crota in the 390 version of Crota's End. Once those two tasks are complete, the gun can then be upgraded into Necrochasm.

Gameplay

Necrochasm's signature ability is "Cursebringer", which allow the player's kills with the weapon to trigger Cursed Thrall-esque explosions.

Grimoire

The Weapons of Sorrow were believed to be nothing more than a myth. But even the darkest myths are born of some truths, and whispers of the Necrochasm have long filled the Light with dread.

It is said the Necrochasm was born in the twilight after Crota's sword first cracked the Moon. That a lost Guardian's weapon was altered by the Hive in an attempt to fuse their own dark understanding with humanity’s mastery of war. The result was a weapon that would feed on its owner's aggression—reaching further when angry eyes drew focus, its hunger rising as it tore through bone and flesh.

Any Guardian who comes across the weapon must ask some very simple questions with endlessly complicated answers: Is your Light bright enough to stand, even briefly, in full gaze of the Hive's abyss? Can it handle what has died and been reborn in those shadows?

Destiny 2

Perks

  • Intrinsic Perk: Cursebringer
    • Precision final blows with this weapon trigger a Cursed Thrall explosion. Final blows with Cursed Thrall explosions refill the magazine.
  • Arrowhead Brake: Lightly vented barrel. Greatly controls recoil. Increases handling speed.
  • Ricochet Rounds: Rounds ricochet off hard surfaces. Increases stability. Slightly increases range.
  • Desperation: Reloading after a precision final blow or a final blow with a Cursed Thrall explosion increases your rate of fire and improves stability and aim assist.
  • Hand-Laid Stock: This weapon is optimized for recoil control. Increases stability.

Acquisition

In Destiny 2 the way you acquire this gun is different. If you completed the Crota’s End raid on contest mode within 48 hours of the raid being released, you could walk up to the raid vendor at the end of the raid and obtain the quest, upon which you would automatically obtain the weapon as well as the Husk of the pit, Eidolon Ally, and the quest for its catalyst. If you did not, then you would simply obtain the Husk of the Pit and the quest after talking to the raid vendor and must complete it.

The first step is to kill 100 Hive anywhere with the Husk of the Pit, with bonus progress being granted in the raid itself. Once completed, you will receive the Eidolon Ally and the next step of the quest, which requires you to obtain 20 Essence of the Oversoul, which are obtained randomly by completing encounters, however they have a low drop rate. You can also complete specific triumphs to obtains some more essence, though they wont grant you all the essence you need. However, there is a chance where all the essence needed for both the gun and catalyst will drop upon completing a full run of the raid and killing Crota. Once you’ve completed that step, you will be awarded with Necrochasm.

Gameplay

In Destiny 2, the original perk remains the same, albeit with a noticeable change: kills with the Cursed Thrall explosions now refill your magazine, and the exotic perk Desperation will grant better stability and aim assist as well as increased fire rate. The catalyst acquired from Crota's End grants the Outlaw perk, giving it faster reloads on precisions kills. Combining with the Necrotic Grip Warlock Gauntlets also enables a hidden interaction that can chain Cursed Thrall explosions to surrounding enemies.

Catalyst

The catalyst for Necrochasm requires you to obtain 35 Essence of the Oversoul, but worry not, as the quest to obtain the catalyst is retroactive as long as you already collected the 20 essence required for the gun itself, meaning you really only need another 15. Completing the cataylst yields the following perk:

  • Outlaw:
    • Precision kills greatly decrease reload time.

Lore

Arise for Crota, Son of Oryx, the Hope-Eater!

He who has seized the Sky lair above Ceres,
which peers into other planes,
now vassal to the might of the Worldbreaker!

Within these keyholes
our brood communes with unheard voices.
They who whisper that the
curse of our Thralls
is a blessing granted by the Deep.

Now, in honor of the God-Knight,
we fashion these gluttonous whispers into death.
His Hellmouth becomes home to the profane:
the corpse of the Sky, reborn in the abyss.

Enkaar, the Anointed

Trivia

  • Necrochasm is the only weapon in Destiny that is acquired by upgrading it from common (Husk of the Pit) to legendary (Eidolon Ally) to exotic (Necrochasm) status.
  • The weapon was referenced in the credits of The Simpsons episode Treehouse of Horror XXVI.[1]
  • In Year 3, Necrochasm is the only Exotic weapon in Destiny other than the Zhalo Supercell that has an elemental burn and requires a player to complete a part of a raid.
