Step 1: Complete One of The Following Objectives

Climbing The Mountaintop mainly requires you to prove yourself when it comes to defeating enemies with Grenade Launchers and there are two options for step one of this quest.

The first option for completing this step is to rapidly defeat combatants using a Breech-Loaded Grenade Launcher anywhere in the system. (Bonus progress in Onslaught Activities)

Note: Breech-Loaded Grenade Launchers are Grenade Launchers that are equipped in your first or second weapon slots instead of the Energy Weapon Slot.

The Mountaintop is one of the weapons that have the Indomitability Origin Trait, which provides you with Grenade or Melee Energy Regeneration depending on your class.

Being that The Mountaintop is not an Exotic Weapon, it can easily be a good choice for one of the weapons in your loadout to deal with excessive damage or to clear multiple enemies.
