This is another weapon that sounds great on paper, and it is a lot of fun, but it’s just not worth taking up an Exotic slot to use this weapon for DPS when Xenophage, Anarchy, and Deathbringer are in the game. Its Exotic perk “Payday” states that the weapon has a larger magazine (150 rounds to be exact), increased accuracy when firing from the hip, and when you pick up primary ammo the magazine is automatically reloaded. Sweet Business isn’t a name you hear too often anymore, which is a shame, because it has so much potential to be a top-tier weapon, but again it just falls short in certain areas. Destiny is no stranger to weapons that can kill you, since Touch of Malice is one of the most famous Exotics in all of Destiny’s history, with a near-infinite magazine that would drain your health with each shot you fired after emptying the magazine to its last round until you reloaded, but Tommy’s Matchbook just falls short in my (match)book. Tommy’s Matchbook was the seasonal Exotic from Season of the Worthy, and its Exotic perk “Ignition Trigger” states that “Sustained fire with this weapon overheats it, increasing damage but burning the user.” While this does sound like a pretty neat perk on paper, the actual damage increase from the perk isn’t nearly enough to warrant nearly killing yourself each time you use it.

So, what are our picks for the top 5 Exotic Auto Rifles in Destiny 2? 6. Auto Rifles are pretty underrated for the most part when it comes to Destiny 2, because we have Submachine Guns that can do a better job at ad-clearing at a close range, and Scout Rifles and Pulse Rifles that can handle enemies from a much further range and can also do pretty decent DPS. For players that are more dead set on collecting every piece of gear – there’s a ton of Exotic quests that you can complete to earn these powerful weapons. For players that want to grind out the latest-and-greatest god roll stats – Exotic armor gives them something to chase. These Exotics give the game its unique “flavor” and are part of what makes Destiny so memorable. Destiny is full of a plethora of very unique and very powerful weapons and armor known as “Exotics.” These weapons can range from things like Hand Cannons, Auto Rifles, DMR-like Scout Rifles, Rocket Launchers, Grenade Launchers, Sidearms, Machine Guns, Shotguns, Fusion Rifles, Swords, and so many more.
