Few Exotics embody the theme of their Class quite like Lucky Pants. If you’re a Hunter who loves Handcannons, here’s how to get and use Lucky Pants in Destiny 2.
What are the Lucky Pants in Destiny 2?
The Lucky Pants are a piece of Exotic Leg Armorexclusive to Hunter’s. This Armor piece is sought-after as itboosts Handcannon damagewith the following Exotic Perk:
Illegally Modded Holster
There’s a lot to unpack here, but the part we really care about is theboosted damage on consecutive hits. The in-game description of the perk is wordy, but you can use non-Kinetic Handcannons if your subclass matches the element of the weapon.Lucky Pants reward a skilled Hunter who can reliably land their shots. Handcannons are decent with any class, but this Exotic makes them so much better.
This Exotic perk works with any Handcannon but feels great paired with iconic weapons like theAce of Spades andMalfeasance. The Ace is onethe best Exotics in the gameand fits nicely into that Kinetic requirement for the Lucky Pants.

How to get the Lucky Pants in Destiny 2
Now I’ve sold you on the Lucky Pants, let’s find you a pair.
Lucky Pants can be found asrandom world drops inside Exotic Engrams. The fastest way to accumulate Engrams is by completing nine Vanguard Strikes, which gives three. Sadly,you can only farm Strikes for three Exotic Engrams weekly, but it’s better than nothing.
You may get lucky with Xur on his weekly visits, but it’s potluck. Xur has stocked the Lucky Pants before, but there’s no telling when or if he will again.
Another great source of Exotics isVex Incursions. These eventsperiodically spawn on Neomunaand task Guardians with defeating several waves of Vex. These Vex Incursions are tricky, so you’ll need to tackle them with other players.
Fortunately, you’ll usually find other Guardians participating, andthe reward is always an Exotic armor piece you don’t already own. Vex Incursions are incredible for completing your Exotic wardrobes for every class and well worth the trouble.
If you’re stocked up on Exotics, ensure you’re not neglecting yourLegendary arsenal, as there are some incredible guns up for grabs.
