Whether you\u2019re casually grinding through new Season of the Risen content or getting Raid ready, everyone always wants to get their hands on the latest Exotics. Unsurprisingly, the latest content drop delivers in a big way with plenty of fresh Exotics to hunt down. Among the new batch is none other than the Parasite Grenade Launcher. This weapon is unlike anything else in Destiny 2 so you\u2019ll definitely want it in your arsenal. Below is a full guide on how the Exotic functions along with how to unlock it. Contents Destiny 2 Parasite Exotic Details – How to begin \u201cOf Queens and Worms\u201d Destiny 2 Parasite quest – Of Queens and Worms walkthrough – Destiny 2 Parasite Exotic Grenade Launcher Details While the Parasite Exotic is labeled a Grenade Launcher in Destiny 2, it\u2019s not exactly grenades that this weapon launches. Instead, this gun fires out deadly Hive worms that explode on impact. These Hive worms can be devastating in their own right, but it\u2019s the Worm\u2019s Hunger Perk that makes it a standout Exotic. This ability buffs the size and damage of each worm explosion based on how many enemies you defeat with other weapons before firing. This effect stacks, meaning you can clear weaker foes with an SMG, ramp up the Worm\u2019s Hunger buff, swap to the Exotic Grenade Launcher, and deal absurd damage to a boss target. Furthermore, if you take damage from your own worm projectile, the blast actually empowers your other weapons with a 15% damage increase for 10 seconds thanks to the Worm Byproduct Trait. How to begin \u201cOf Queens and Worms\u201d Destiny 2 Parasite quest You\u2019re unable to start the Queens and Worms Exotic questline until you\u2019ve finished the Witch Queen campaign. The quest unfolds after the final mission, meaning you should avoid this guide if you\u2019re yet to clear the main storyline.

She helps trigger the Parasite questline immediately after the Witch Queen campaign comes to a close. Below is a full step-by-step walkthrough on how to complete the Queens and Worms Exotic quest in Destiny 2. \u201cOf Queens and Worms\u201d Exotic quest walkthrough Speak to Mara Sov at the Enclave on Mars To begin the Queens and Worms Exotic quest in Destiny 2, simply talk to Mara Sov at the Enclave on Mars. There, she\u2019ll give you your first steps to acquiring the Parasite Exotic Grenade Launcher. Complete Birthplace of the Vile Strike Your first order of business is to complete the Birthplace of the Vile Strike. There are no tricks here and no surprise challenges along the way, just a regular Strike to kick things off. This Strike can be accessed in Savathun\u2019s Throne World and has a recommended level of 1510 Power. Complete the activity to advance the Exotic questline. Visit the Temple of the Cunning in Savathun\u2019s Throne World Next up, it\u2019s time to put your hiking boots on as you\u2019re in for a long trek through Savathun\u2019s Throne World. You\u2019re required to visit the Temple of the Cunning location deep underground. It takes a few minutes to reach this area and once you do, you\u2019ll be greeted by a pack of Scorn enemies. Clear them out to continue to quest. Kill 100 Scorn in Savathun\u2019s Throne World After wiping out the first batch of Scorn at the Temple of the Cunning, you then have to kill a separate 100 Scorn enemies in Savathun\u2019s Throne World. This can be done anywhere on the new destination but we recommend tracking down the Resonant Splinter Public Event. The latest Public Event often features huge crowds of Scorn foes, making it an optimal way to farm kills in this quest step. Complete the Sepulcher Lost Sector Now comes the first of three Lost Sectors you\u2019ll have to complete throughout the Queens and Worms Exotic quest. All of which are set in Savathun\u2019s Throne World, so you won\u2019t have to travel too far. Head to the Sepulcher Lost Sector and progress to the end of the activity. After opening the chest, interact with a Deepsight Darkness Orb behind the final statue to spot some hidden platforms in the area. Traverse these platforms and jump up to a secret area where you can then place a Hive worm on a pedestal to advance the quest. Complete Three Patrols in the Florescent Canal Your next task is to complete Three Patrols in the Florescent Canal. These can be any three Patrols so the choice is all yours. It\u2019s simple enough, just smash through any three activities and you\u2019ll quickly be on your way to the next step. Head to Queen\u2019s Baily for a Cryptoglyph The next step in the Queens and Worms questline should pop up automatically on your tracker. Be sure you\u2019ve activated the right quest and your waypoint will guide you to the Queen\u2019s Baily location. Similar to the Temple of the Cunning, once you arrive you\u2019ll have to wipe out all the Scorn in this area to progress the step. Complete the Metamorphosis Lost Sector Now that you\u2019re in a rhythm, it\u2019s time to repeat the same process a few times over. Metamorphosis is the second Lost Sector to clear in Savathun\u2019s Throne World. Just the same as before, complete the activity, use Deepsight Darkness to find hidden platforms at the end, enter a secret room, and place a Hive worm on a pedestal. Find another Cryptoglyph at the Alluring Curtain Repeating another familiar step, you next have to follow your waypoint to the Alluring Curtain. Rather than Scorn enemies awaiting you, however, this time it\u2019s Hive. Clear them out and once again use Deepsight Darkness to traverse up a number of hidden platforms. Three of these platforms have unlit torches on them this time around, however. Shoot these torches to light their fires and unlock a nearby chest. Interact with said chest to advance the questline. Complete the Extraction Lost Sector Last but not least, it\u2019s time for Extraction, the final Lost Sector in this questline. All you need to do here is follow the same pattern as before. Complete the Lost Sector, use Deepsight Darkness one last time to find the room, and place the Hive worm on a pedestal. Return to Fynch With all previous steps complete, head back to Flynch in Savathun\u2019s Throne World. It\u2019s here where you\u2019ll get your final step in the Destiny 2 \u201cOf Queens and Worms\u201d questline. Complete the Parasitic Pilgrimage mission After speaking with Fynch, you have one last job and that\u2019s to complete the Parasitic Pilgrimage mission. While this is a fairly straightforward activity, it could be worth loading into the mission with a few allies to help along the way. Once you\u2019ve cleared Parasitic Pilgrimage, you\u2019ll have finished the \u201cOf Queens and Worms\u201d Exotic quest, and Destiny 2\u2019s Parasite Grenade Launcher is now all yours to run wild with. That\u2019s all there is to unlocking the Destiny 2 Parasite Exotic Grenade Launcher in the Witch Queen expansion.
