Guardians plunged back into the suffocating darkness of Rhulk's pyramid during Episode Heresy, drawn by whispers of power within Sundered Doctrine. This dungeon isn't just another tomb raid—it's a treasure hunt where the Dread's hungry tendrils brush against your ghost-light while you chase that elusive exotic, Finality's Auger. Sure, Vesper's Host weapons stole the spotlight earlier, and everyone's still raving about that killer Indebted Kindness sidearm from Warlord's Ruin. But let's be real: sleeping on Sundered Doctrine's gear? That's like ignoring a Hive knight sharpening its sword behind you. These uncraftable gems pack the adaptive Subjugation origin perk and some seriously spicy rolls that could shake up your loadout. Time to dig into the loot pool's juiciest offerings.

Unvoiced: The Void Slug That Talks Big

Slug shotguns? Yeah, they're that weird cousin at the family reunion—kinda niche, sometimes awkward in the Crucible meta, but oh boy, when they click? Pure magic. Unvoiced struts in as a void slug with recoil so predictable it's almost boring. Perfect for when you wanna stare down a champ or boss and whisper "hold still." Forget Nessa's Oblation; this beauty pairs Destabilizing Rounds with Demoralize for add-clearing chaos. Need boss DPS? Slap on Bait and Switch and Envious Arsenal—suddenly you're playing musical chairs with Taniks' health bar without reloading. Crucible mains might scoff (Chaperone exists, hello?), but Lone Wolf + Closing Time turns Unvoiced into a special-ammo nightmare. Just... maybe don't miss.

Unworthy: Your Pocket Thunderstorm

Rapid-fire scout rifles don't usually get love, but Unworthy? It's storming the charts. This arc 260RPM beast sits pretty between Randy's Throwing Knife and Trustee, packing Firefly for explosive precision kills. Now, Voltshot's flashy—zap one enemy, reload, watch others fry—but Rolling Storm? That's the quiet MVP. No reload gimmicks, just lightning casually dropping from the sky while you sip coffee. Arc builds feast here: Bolt Chargers get their fix, Jolt enthusiasts get their chain reactions. PvP? Keep Away + Zen Moment keeps it steady, but scouts ain't meta darlings. Still, for those long-range pulse rifle haters? Unworthy whispers, "Try me."

Unsworn: The Laser Light Show

Trace rifles. Oh, trace rifles. They're not your burst-DPS queens—more like the weirdo cousin waving glow sticks at a rave. Unsworn leans hard into utility with Detonator Beam (think Kinetic Tremors but shinier). Hold that beam, watch enemies pop like confetti piñatas. Add Rewind Rounds? Suddenly you're clearing whole rooms without reloading. PvP guardians, though? Just walk away. Trace rifles in Crucible feel like bringing a spork to a knife fight—awkward and kinda sad. Lodestar's arrival just rubs salt in the wound. But in PvE? Against swarms of Thrall or beefy Cabal? Unsworn cackles, "Imma firin' mah lazar!" and means it.

Unloved: Strand's Burst-Fire Bad Boy

Heavy burst hand cannons—new toys, fresh pain. Unloved is Strand's first entry, and Lucky Pants Hunters are already drooling. But this ain't no precision monster; it's an add-slaying beast. Dragonfly + Hatchling? Congrats, you just turned minor foes into tangled confetti. Frenzy or Elemental Honing boost damage for general mayhem (Prismatic builds, wink wink). Tear adds Sever debuffs, making champs feel flimsy. Now, PvP? Well... burst HCs reload slower than a Titan after leg day. Rapid Hit + Outlaw helps, and Kill Clip might save you, but meta this ain't. Still, in Gambit or seasonal activities? Unloved goes from zero to hero real quick.
