Perks - Curated Roll

Intrinsic

• Black Hole - Second shot of a burst rips a hole through spacetime, doing high damage and recoil with no falloff.

Barrel

• Hammer-Forged Rifling - Durable ranged barrel.
  • Increases Range.

Magazine

• Accurized Rounds - This weapon can fire longer distances.
  • Increases Range.

Trait

• Cosmology - Kills with this weapon cause enemy targets to detonate and spawn Void projectiles that track targets.

Stock

• Fitted Stock - This stock makes the weapon stable but heavy.
  • Increases Stability.
  • Improves recoil direction.
  • Slightly decreases Handling Speed.

Catalyst

• Vorpal Weapon - Increased damage against bosses, vehicles, and Guardians with their Super active.
• Turnabout - Using this weapon to break the shield of a combatant or a Guardian using their Super will grant you an overshield.

Graviton Lance Catalyst can be obtained in strikes or in the Crucible. To unlock its upgrade, the player has to defeat enemies, and get Cosmology kills.

The Catalyst increases Graviton Lance's Range by 20, adds the Vorpal Weapon and Turnabout perks, and Masterworks the weapon.

Lore

"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."
