"Stick to wall, ground, human… then FFFFFRRRRRYYYYY! Hehehehehehehe."
Siviks, Lost to None

Anarchy is a Exotic Arc Grenade Launcher. It was originally acquired as a rare drop from the Scourge of the Past raid. As of the Beyond Light expansion, it is obtained through the Monument To Lost Lights in the Tower.[1]

Gameplay

Anarchy was a staple for raids and other challenging content for a very long time due to its high ease of use, strong ammo economy and capability of dealing high damage over time. This made it the strongest Exotic weapon and the strongest heavy weapon at taking down bosses, while also being a solid option for add clear. This became an issue, as many fireteams would refuse to run raids with players without Anarchy, but a large amount of Spoils of Conquest (which are obtained from raids) are required to purchase the weapon from the Monument to Lost Lights. This significantly narrowed accessibility to raiding for most people, with only seasoned raiders who already owned Anarchy, or people with close friends who play Destiny 2, being allowed to raid in a large amount of circumstances.

With the release of Season of the Lost, Anarchy was notably nerfed. It received a 30% damage reduction to bosses, as well as a large reduction in total ammo capacity; from 26 to 16. This nerf was significant enough to end Anarchy's long reign, allowing for much more variety in heavy weapons to be used in raids and challenging content.

Lore

"STICK TO WALL, GROUND, HUMAN… THEN FFFFFRRRRRYYYYY! HEHEHEHEHEHEHE."—SIVIKS, LOST TO NONE

"You little rat. You took my warm hospitality and stomped all over it like an ungrateful child. Is that any way to treat one of your dear 'brethren'?"

Siviks laughed. A cold, twisted laugh. Then offered up a large wad of spit at the Spider's feet.

The Spider just rolled his eyes. "Let me know when you're ready to make nice," he said.

Siviks' laugh now grew into something maniacal. He topped it off with another wad of spit, this time directly in the Spider's face.

Once he'd wiped his brow, the Spider leaned forward, looking Siviks in the eyes, and said, "I think our little rat here needs a time out. Perhaps someplace with the rest of the vermin."

The many hands of Spider's men gripped and restrained Siviks. As they dragged him off, he shouted, "You… as bad as all Fallen! Worse, even! A friend even to humans… All must die!"

The Spider simply waved goodbye, taunting, "Bon voyage, my friend!"

Once Siviks had gone, the Spider looked longingly toward where he had stood. He sighed a deep, regretful sigh before continuing with business as usual.

Trivia

  • Anarchy is one of only five weapons in Destiny 2 that deal damage over time. The other weapons are: Le Monarque, Osteo Striga, Thorn and Witherhoard. It is the only weapon to deal Arc damage over time, and the only heavy weapon to deal damage over time.
