The RankSurge Marathon hub collects everything you need to plan a run in Bungie's extraction shooter: every Runner shell with its abilities and tier, a weapons database with damage, accuracy, handling and range, and a loadout planner that checks your range coverage. Live player stats arrive when Bungie releases a public API.
What can I do on the Marathon hub?
- Compare Runner shells side by side, with prime and tactical abilities, traits and who each shell suits.
- Search and filter all weapons by type and ammo, sort by any stat, and see how each gun ranks against others of its type.
- Build a loadout from a shell and two weapons, check it for gaps, save two versions and share it.
- See the current meta: the top shells, top weapons and ready-made loadouts, with the date they were last checked.
Why are there no Marathon player stats yet?
Bungie has not opened a public Marathon API, and RankSurge only uses official data sources, never game-file mining or screen scraping. As soon as Bungie publishes an API, RankSurge will add player lookups, vault tools and one-tap loadout equipping, the same way it already does for Destiny 2 in the vault manager.
More Marathon tools: Marathon hub, Runner shells, weapons database and the loadout planner. Playing Destiny 2 too? Try the Destiny 2 build planner.
Frequently asked questions
Can RankSurge show my Marathon stats or vault?
Not yet. Bungie has not released a public Marathon API, so no site can legitimately read player stats, match history or vault contents. RankSurge will add live stats, vault tools and one-tap loadouts as soon as Bungie opens an API. Sign up on the Marathon hub to get an email the day it launches.
What is Marathon?
Marathon is Bungie's first-person extraction shooter for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC, released on March 5, 2026. You pick a Runner shell, drop into a zone with your gear, loot and fight other crews, and extract to keep what you found. If you die before extracting, you lose the gear you brought.
What is the best Runner shell in Marathon?
Current public tier lists put Triage, Assassin and Recon at the top. Triage can revive and heal a whole squad, Assassin uses smoke and invisibility to pick fights, and Recon reveals enemies, including invisible ones. The best pick still depends on whether you play solo or in a squad.
What are the best weapons in Marathon right now?
After the October 2026 balance changes, the Bully SMG, BR33 Volley Rifle, WSTR Combat Shotgun and Outland sniper rifle sit at the top of most tier lists. A common pairing is one close-range weapon, such as the Bully SMG, with a mid or long-range rifle.
When is the next big Marathon update?
Bungie moved its planned Season 3 content into an update called Symbiosis, due on December 8, 2026. It adds the Bishop Runner shell plus new weapons and equipment. The Nightfall Refresh has been live since October 6, 2026.
How do I plan a Marathon loadout?
Open the RankSurge loadout planner, pick a Runner shell and two weapons, and the planner checks your close, mid and long-range coverage, your ammo types and common gaps. You can tap a meta loadout to start, save two loadouts, compare them and share a link with your crew.
