Destiny 2: Warmind - How to Get the IKELOS HC V1.0.1

The Warmind DLC brought a whole new set of weapons to the world of Destiny 2 with one of them being the IKELOS HC V1.0.1 legendary hand cannon. Players who are looking to add the IKELOS HC V1.0.1 hand cannon to their Destiny 2 inventory by visiting Ana Bray on Mars once they have completed the main story missions for the Warmind DLC. Visitng her will unlock a world quest, which is represented by a blue banner with a crown on it marked on the map. In order to collect the IKELOS HC V1.0.1, Guardians must complete the Legacy Code and Piece of the Past missions of the Data Recovery quest line. 

Both the Legacy Code and Piece of the Past missions can be completed solo or with a fireteam in less than 20 minutes, which is good news for Destiny 2 players who are not looking for a long grind filled quest line to complete for a new weapon. The IKELOS HC V1.0.1 will drop at the very end of the second mission, but the overall data Recovery Quest will continue on for players to grab even more rewards. 

The IKELOS HC V1.0.1 possesses a very interesting perk in that kills with the weapon temporarily grant an increase in damage that can be stacked up to three times, which means that the new hand cannon can pack a solid punch against stronger enemies, once you have taken out a couple of grunts. Solar energy is what the IKELOS HC V1.0.1 utilizes as its damage type of choice, and it also has the Precision perk equipped, which causes the recoil pattern of the weapon to be more vertical. 

With a short quest line and an interesting weapon as its reward, the IKELOS HC V1.0.1 quest is one that every Guardian can easily complete in order to add another weapon to their inventory to help in their fight against the forces of the darkness that threaten the Destiny 2 universe.
