Destiny 2 Sleeper Simulant Catalyst Review

Sleeper Simulant Catalyst from Spire of Stars Raid Lair is an excellent catalyst that makes this a beast with minuscule charge-up time. To upgrade Masterwork kills with each Escalation Protocol weapon: 1,000 Sniper Rifle kills, 1,000 Shotgun kills, and 2,000 Submachine Gun kills.

Sleeper Simulant’s laser overwounds enemies and bounces back off hard surfaces and it is very easy to kill yourself. You need to be careful because it also comes with a trait moving target and it is something that makes that reticle extra sticky when aiming down sights. The weapon has a quick charge time of +75 Charge Time Accelerated Coils.

With the catalysts, you cannot do the same thing with accuracy. You can do the same thing with Actress or the new Tractor Cannon but the dilemma with both of those options is you usually have to close the gap and when you have somebody like a good dawn blade or Maybe even a good hammer that can maintain a distance from you it is difficult to shut them down. Sleeper Simulant does not have this difficulty.

 

When using Sleeper Simulant in PvP do not go for the headshot it does not even matter just go for the body. The main disadvantage of this weapon in PvP is you only get two shots and that is it, the advantage is those two shots will be a guaranteed kill as long as you have got quite a decent aim.
