The Symmetry scout rifle is a solid weapon in Destiny 2. It may not be the best Scout Rifle, but its stacking Dynamic Charges and Arc Seekers give it a lot of potential when fired on full auto. It can be a bit tedious due to micromanagement, but with some experience, players can get a lot done using this weapon.

The Symmetry Catalyst is highly recommended for players who want to use this weapon consistently. It goes a long way to expanding its DPS potential and makes micromanagement just a little more bearable.

The Symmetry Catalyst comes with the perk Electric Styx. Electric Styx introduces a single benefit to the Scout Rifle.

• Maximum number of Dynamic Charges is increased by five.

Now the player will be able to stack up to 20 Dynamic Charges. This means even more of a damage increase for greater DPS potential. It will also reload the weapon fully when triggered at 20. The Symmetry Catalyst is highly recommended due to these reasons even if it is a little tricky to track down.

To get the Symmetry Catalyst the player will need to complete the short by grinding the quest Symmetry Remastered. While the quest is technically a three-part questline there is really only one objective apart from reporting to Banshee-44 at the beginning and end.

The main objective is to gain 400 points by completing any of the following activities:

• Sundial runs
• Gambit matches
• Crucible matches
• Strikes
• Nightfalls

Any activity will earn the player a single point. Essentially, the player needs to complete 400 activities. It doesn’t have to be any particular, 400 Strikes or 200 Crucible matches and 200 Gambit matches will get the job done. So the player should pursue whichever they want.

The Symmetry Catalyst is upgraded by killing 700 enemies using Symmetry. The damage can technically come from any source, but the final blow must be dealt with Symmetry. It also doesn’t matter if it’s a result of traditional firing or the Arc Seekers, either will count.

The other thing to keep in mind is that these 700 kills can be obtained retroactively. If the player gained any kills during the 400 activities with the Symmetry they’ll apply to the 700 kills for the upgrade. It’s strongly recommended to use this weapon during these activities to cut down on grind time.

The fastest way to get 400 activity completions would be to win Crucible matches. The fastest would likely be:

• Elimination
• Clash
• Rumble

These game modes typically last a few minutes with a solid team. Other modes like Survival or Countdown will take longer. A good secondary option is short Strikes like Lake of Shadows that can also be done in a few minutes.

Another approach is to take this time to grind for other Catalysts. For instance, the player can grind Strikes to get the Prospector Catalyst. Perhaps the most efficient way to go is to run Crucible matches for time reasons and hunt for Crucible-specific Catalysts like the Black Talon Catalyst.
