One of the most popular weapons from Season 5 of Destiny 2 was the Kindled Orchid. While it has been softly sunset with the introduction of new perks, weapon enhancement, and gear Tiers, it has returned with the Monument of Triumph.
Kindled Orchid is a 140 RPM Void hand cannon from the Black Armory arsenal. It kept quite a few perks from the original version, but it also comes with Void perks to synergize with the Void subclass in the current sandbox.
Here are our Kindled Orchid PvE and PvP god rolls in Destiny 2.

The PvE god roll on Kindled Orchid is very straightforward. The hand cannon offers the staple Void combination of Repulsor Brace and Destabilizing Rounds. You can also go for Demoralize if your build benefits more from Weaken rather than Volatile.
There are far more options for PvP, though. The iconic Kill Clip with Rampage combination is back with the reprised weapon. Kill Clip increases the weapon’s damage by 25 percent when reloading after a kill, while Rampage increases the damage up to 33 percent by landing final blows.
However, it’s only worth it if you’re going for multikills in 6v6 game modes, since both perks last only five seconds. Alternatively, you can go for Magnificent Howl as a damage perk. Magnificent Howl grants up to 10 stacks on precision kills that increase each shot’s damage by 55 percent after reloading.
For dueling, the reprised Kindled Orchid has Rangefinder and Explosive Payload. Rangefinder grants a 10 range when ADS and Explosive Payload, which is a staple on hand cannons like Rose, to inflict flinch on opponents.
