Nox Sidereal IV god roll guide for Destiny 2 PvE and PvP

The Nox Sidereal IV is the newest addition to the Aggressive Frame Fusion Rifle arsenal in Destiny 2. While the archetype family was once known for being the weak link, Bungie implemented some reworks to make things more interesting.

The Nox Sidereal IV is also a Stasis weapon, sitting in the Kinetic slot of your inventory. The weapon will grant you access to several synergies with the Stasis subclass, or additional utilities through the perk pools.

This article lists the best perks on the new Stasis Fusion Rifle for PvE and PvP.

The following perks are recommended on the Nox Sidereal IV for PvE:

Arrowhead Brake for increased Handling and reduced recoil.
Particle Repeater for increased Stability.
Ambitious Assassin for overflowing magazine based on the number of rapid kills made beforehand.
Reservoir Burst for increased damage and enemy's 'explosion-on-death' when the weapon is fired with a full battery/magazine.

You can replace Ambitious Assassin with Demolitionist in the third column for Grenade builds, especially if you are going with a Bleak Watcher Turret on Warlocks.

For more Stasis synergies, you can go with Crystalline Corpsebloom in the fourth column.

Aggressive Frame Fusion Rifles aren't the most potent against other players in PvP. The weapon's horizontal recoil makes it challenging for players to land shots on moving targets, making other archetype families more useful.

Hence, we do not recommend using this weapon in PvP due to the absence of suitable perks and the weapon's horizontal recoil.

Nox Sidereal IV can be farmed from the Portal, especially via the Solo or Fireteam Ops. Complete any one of the activities from those Ops, and the weapon has a chance to drop at the end.
