They don’t require precision kills to be effective, they’re easy to use, and most SMGs come with fantastic perk pools.

Updated June 2nd, 2021 by Charles Burgar: Submachine Guns have become a staple in Destiny’s PvE meta. Here are the best Submachine Guns you need to use in Destiny 2. If you want to chuck grenades endlessly or deal great damage up close, there is a gun for you.

Fortunately, Destiny 2 has a great selection of SMGs to choose from that can suit any playstyle. While Shotguns are great when you have ample ammunition, you will still need to rely on your Primary weapon to deal with hordes of enemies. Weapons like Shotguns and Submachine Guns take full advantage of this playstyle, dealing large amounts of damage at short ranges. Playing as aggressively as possible can be one of the most enjoyable ways to play Destiny 2.
