The lord of the city grants up the blessing of precision with the Destiny 2 Pre Astyanax IV Combat Bow, which is even more impressive with the weapon’s God Rolls. The Pre Astyanax IV was first added into the game during the Season of the Witch, and now acts as a powerful Nightfall reward. The Pre Astyanax IV deals Solar damage with primary ammo, and can easily be a great weapon for both PvP and PvE play styles. However, the Pre Astyanax IV in Destiny 2 is best when it comes with one of the two God Rolls for it. These rolls make the weapon much more efficient and enjoyable to use. Let’s take a look at those God Rolls.

To obtain the Pre Astyanax, you must participate in the Nightfall. This aggressive Combat Bow is a possible prom from the Nightfall activities. Though, the only way you can obtain it for sure is to spend a lot of time running Nightfall while the weapon is one of the active possible drops.
