I owe you an apology, I wasn’t conversant in your recreation.
Hushed Whisper wasn’t as standard as the opposite choices on this 12 months’s Competition of the Misplaced, however this bow remains to be one in every of Future 2‘s hidden gems—particularly with a god roll.
We ignored Hushed Whisper at first look, focusing as an alternative on Gunburn, Competition of the Misplaced’s different new addition, and the reprised Arcane Embrace. However due to a selected synergy between two of those perks, we’re joyful to maintain one copy of it in our vaults.
This weapon struggles as a Legendary bow (and one in every of two aligned to Strand), because it doesn’t get the bonus in opposition to enemies from the Want-Keeper Unique. Bows are additionally not in the perfect spot within the meta, however it might nonetheless be price protecting a duplicate of this in your vault.
Listed below are our Hushed Whisper god rolls, based mostly on perk knowledge from d2foundry.gg.
Hushed Whisper PvE god rolls in Future 2

- String: Polymer String, Elastic String, or Pure String.
- Arrow: Straight Fletching, Fiberglass Arrow Shaft, or Helical Fletching.
- First perk: Tear, Slice, or Profitable Heat-Up.
- Second perk: Archer’s Gambit, Explosive Head, or Hatchling.
The synergy between Tear and Archer’s Gambit is what provides Hushed Whisper its taste, at the least in our expertise, and that’s why it’s our god roll. Should you’re aiming for tougher content material, Archer’s Gambit allows you to line up pictures rapidly due to its draw time bonus, and Tear will sever enemies in an area-of-effect on a precision kill. Gambit doesn’t want a kill both, so you will get it operating with little setup.
Should you’re struggling to land your pictures with out aiming down sights, you can ADS to line up your arrow and launch the intention enter simply earlier than letting it fly, so it nonetheless counts as hip-firing.
Nonetheless, that’s not the one choice for Hushed Whisper, which has just a few tips which will complement your playstyle. Melee-focused gamers would possibly get some use from having Collective Pugilism as a second perk, and Strand-based builds can also profit from Hatchling as a second perk.
If that’s the case, your god roll will depend on what you’d wish to pair it with essentially the most. Tear and Slice are good choices, particularly in tougher content material, however there’s one other perk which will shine right here, as seen beneath.

Should you’re taking your new Hushed Whisper for a spin in a better exercise, nonetheless, it’s price contemplating Profitable Heat-Up within the third column over Tear. This will get you a constant draw time buff triggered on kills (that are simpler to come back by with decrease energy deltas) and opens up room for a damage-boosting perk, similar to Explosive Head, on column 4. Precision Instrument is a bit hit-or-miss: it does grant you appreciable advantages, however it’s tough to maintain it stacked.
For elements, we advocate going for accuracy and draw time. The previous works nicely basically, and the latter helps you retain firing extra rapidly earlier than triggering your perks. In the case of bowstrings, Polymer boosts each accuracy and draw time, whereas Elastic grants you extra draw time with a penalty in accuracy, and Pure doesn’t influence your draw pace however bumps different stats.
