We continue our series of guides on Destiny: Rising.
This time, our focus is on the goddess of DR — the most broken and most essential character in the game: Helhest.

In practice, the game is divided into two periods: before and after her banner.

Weapons
Unfortunately (or fortunately), Helhest doesn’t have a large weapon selection.
Most optimal build:
Yoshimoto + Royal Contravene
or Yoshimoto + Arbalest (less often)
Yoshimoto
Honestly, there’s nothing really “WOW” about this bow — it’s simply the only mythic bow available at the moment.
It has decent Precision damage, but we use it very rarely, since Helhest has an enormous amount of Heavy Ammo.
Royal Contravene
The perfect weapon for Helhest!
It has two alternate fire modes
(switched by holding reload):
Charged shot that triggers a chain reaction on nearby mobs
Triple-shot — using ONE bullet, fires three projectiles
All three projectiles consume only 1 Salvo charge.
Absolutely broken! We use only this mode.
Arbalest
A weapon from the new Battle Pass.
It has an interesting perk that deals massive damage to shields and creates an AoE explosion when a shield is destroyed.
Allows Helhest to effectively deal with shields of any element without significant damage loss, plus AoE.
A solid option for certain Calamity Ops and Expanse strategies (non-Arc).
