How to get Gjallarhorn catalyst – Destiny 2

Open 3 chests throughout “Grasp of Avarice” to obtain the Gjallarhorn catalyst. 

Look for Reaver Vandals within the dungeon. These creatures are incredibly tanky, and drop Exotic Engrams. Additionally, dealing enough damage gives you the “Burdened by Riches” condition, which lets you open a catalyst chest nearby. 

You must open a chest before “Burdened by Riches” expires to remove the condition, or else you’ll die instantly.
