The Graviton Lance is an Exotic Pulse rifle in Destiny 2. It is one of the first weapons to be offered to the player, alongside Sunshot and Riskrunner.
Lore
THINK OF SPACE-TIME AS A TAPESTRY ON A LOOM. THIS WEAPON IS THE NEEDLE.
"So wait, that thing you found does... what?"
"It fires black holes."
"No it doesn't."
"Oh yeah. It does. Actual, tiny, bullet-sized black holes."
"Did you tell the others?"
"Only that I found some weird gun in some overgrown tunnel back on Old Chicago. And that my Ghost was all, 'THIS is why we were led here...'"
"Yours talks that way too?"
"What do you think?"
"OK, OK, but the gun-- are you going to tell them?"
"Yeah, definitely."
"When?"
"Crucible."
"Oh no."
"Oh yes."
Gameplay
Graviton Lance is a Void pulse rifle. It has the ability to fire two-shot bursts, with the second burst having high recoil and damage. the second shot in the burst does not have damage falloff, and due to its recoil, it must be treated like a scout rifle. When an enemy is killed with the Graviton Lance, it will release a small black hole that launches enemy corpses backwards and detonates them, leaving a small black hole and releases seeking projectiles that make enemies explode if they are killed by them. The Lance has become a top contender in the Crucible as of the 1.2.0 update, which introduced a significant buff to pulse rifles. Among the guns improved by this update were the Vigilance Wing exotic pulse rifle, which rivals the time to kill of Lance within hundredths of a second.
