Every Destiny 2 player has at least one or two Exotic weapons that they use in every build. These weapons have unique perks that make them stand out from every other weapon, especially those that come and go with seasons. Dragon’s Breath is no different, but it’s the Exotic Catalyst that will really make this a powerful tool in the hands of any player once they’ve gotten their hands on both elements.

What Does the Exotic Catalyst for Dragon’s Breath in Destiny 2 Do?

The Dragon’s Breath Exotic Catalyst, Pyromancer, will improve the passive regeneration of fuel in the weapon once players have unlocked it by completing the An Old Flame quest. Any enemies killed with this weapon will spawn Firesprites, which will burn and damage nearby enemies further. This adds another layer of strategy to the weapon that makes it viable in almost every situation.

The Exotic Catalyst will also Masterwork Dragon’s Breath, making it the best it possibly can be. It’ll max out one of the weapon’s base stats to improve it beyond its base capabilities. This can be tweaked somewhat, but the main benefit is the added perk that the Catalyst will bring to this rocket launcher.
