Roll exclusive Menagerie gear or previously released Destiny 2 items.
With the release of the Menagerie and the Chalice of Opulence players can earn runes which can be put into the chalice to unlock certain weapons. What weapons drop when open the Menagerie Chest after the final boss will solely be determined by the runes that you put in the chalice. There are many different combinations that can be used in the Chalice as it has three slots for runes. In this guide we’ll go over what each slot does, the different types of runes that you can slot into the Chalice, some necessary upgrades to get those different runes, and some of the known weapon combinations that can drop in the Menagerie.
The Chalice of Opulence has three slots that can be unlocked using Imperial currency. The first slot will be unlocked when doing the Invitation quest, but the other slots must be unlocked as you go. Simply do activities to earn Imperials and you can then use that currency to unlock slots or purchase upgrades to the Chalice.
- Slot I – Determines what types of weapons or armor will drop
- Slot II – Determines the traits of the weapon or armor
- Slot III – Determines Masterwork Properties
You’ll start out by only being able to find purple runes when completing different challenges that have a chance of rewarding you with Runes. However, if you upgrade the Chalice of Opulence you can start finding Red Runes, Green Runes, and Blue Runes too. These different color runes can be used in the Chalice to unlock different weapon types and other powerful gear. As explained in this Chalice upgrade guide, the Rune Compatibility upgrades are the ones you want to focus on if getting different color Runes is your objective. If you don’t do the Rune Compatibility upgrades for I, II, and III you will not ever see the red runes, green runes, and blue runes.
However, once you do get these upgrades on the chalice you will have a much larger pool of possible combinations. Once you have the top slot (Slot I) and the left slot (Slot II) unlocked as well as the first rune compatibility upgrade you can start getting unique weapons like the Beloved Sniper Rifle or Calus Mini-Tool.
Menagerie Rune Loot Guide
Mixing and matching these runes in the slots will allow you to fine tune the items that you are getting. For example, using a Rune of Jubilation in the top slot of the chalice will drop you sniper rifles, while using a Rune of the beast will drop a sub-machine gun. These drops are guaranteed so long as you use these runes. Now the left side (Slot II) will determine which weapon in that class will drop for you, but it depends on the color of the rune that you use.
