Every blaster in Destiny 2 Renegades has a Star Wars counterpart. For the Compact Defender, the inspiration was Leia’s blaster. While it may be a sidearm, it comes with heavy-hitting perks that offer both damage and subclass synergy.
Compact Defender is a Dynamic Heat Void sidearm. It fires at 360 RPM, placing it in the same category as Lightweight Frame sidearms, such as Heliocentric QSc or Faustus Decline. As a Void weapon, there are tried and tested combinations to synergize with your build, as well as a few additional damage options.
