1 or 2? 1 or 2? (Destiny)

by Morpheus @, High Charity, Wednesday, August 24, 2016, 03:56 (3106 days ago)

And before any of you say it, 'none'; 'neither' or any and all synonyms thereof will not be accepted as answers. Please.

Anyway, let's get to it.

Less than a month! I'm saving up my Exotics for the impending release just in case they can open up something from RoI(yeah right). But unfortunately, I'm starting to run out of Vault space.

I just barely limped my way to Iron Banner Rank 5 last night. Saladin can go screw. I did, however get a good amount of weapons from Iron Banner, Challenge of Elders, and other sources. Too many, in fact. Below is a list of most of my duplicates and their perks. 1 will be in Green, 2 will be in Blue. Let me know for my weapons, which version/roll I should keep.

Again, NO NONE'S.

Finnala's Peril

Reactive Reload and Outlaw? or Mulligan and Underdog?

Not Like The Others

Crowd Control and Reactive Reload? or Who's Next? and Outlaw?

Deidris's Retort(Threesome Edition)

Underdog and Full Auto?--Surrounded and Rescue Mag?--or Exhumed and Army of One?

The Vacancy

Rangefinder and Danger Close/Hot Swap? or Underdog and Surrounded/Army of One?

Havoc Pigeon

Feeding Frenzy or Cascade?

Quillm's Terminus

Eye of the Storm or Life Leech?

Ruin Wake

Surrounded or Eye of the Storm?

The Variable

Crowd Control and Eye of the Storm? or Army of One and Underdog?

Just look those over and see which ones would be best. Pve, Crucible, it doesn't really matter that much. Let me know which ones you would keep!

For ALL Of Them?

by Morpheus @, High Charity, Wednesday, August 24, 2016, 15:36 (3105 days ago) @ SonofMacPhisto

Simply because they were the first ones listed or because they were easier to read(at the time)?

That seems to stretch the "luck" of that order, doesn't it?

Actually, yes

by ZackDark @, Not behind you. NO! Don't look., Wednesday, August 24, 2016, 15:56 (3105 days ago) @ Morpheus

But I'm not much of a fan of Army of One nor Exhumed, so I'm biased as hell. Also, Crowd Control is my jam when no other good perks are present.

reminds me of a prof i had in college. His powerpoints were nothing but wall to wall text, but every slide was different. One would be white with yellow font, then black with blue font, and red with orange font, etc. he would just read the slides from black and white printouts he had. People complained about the colors, and his answer was that we should be paying attention to what he was saying, and not trying to copy his slides word for word. I never understood why he didn't just do away with the slides then.

SO! Now that you all can properly see both options, decide a decisive....decision?

Anyway, choose whichever one you think works best.

Without actually reading the list I'll just go ahead and say that you need to play more and have better luck with RNG.

Heh - that was awesome, but it requires actually hitting all your shots for a series of targets in succession, while under fire.

So... I'm never gonna be able to use that. :)

Hawkmoon's back, baybeh!

by Korny @, Dalton, Ga. US. Earth, Sol System, Wednesday, August 24, 2016, 14:33 (3105 days ago) @ CyberKN

I got a Fanella's Peril from a random drop, and decided to use it just to complete my "Ten Hand Cannon kills" bounty... Only to end up using it throughout the rest of Iron Banner (when I wasn't using my new Jade Rabbit). I got a pretty solid roll, but unless the vendor version has Reactive Reload, I can't Year-1-Hawkmoon it up like that clip. Still, for someone who gave up on hand cannons at the beginning of Year 2, it's a fantastic gun in general (I have no Eyasluna)...

Fanella's Peril ... heh.

Eyasluna is hyped because it does just enough damage to kill in 3 shots if one of them is a critical. It does this half a second more quickly than the slower firing weapons, which also use 3 shots to kill, and a quarter second more quickly than the faster firing weapons, which require 4 shots for a kill (two of which must be criticals). Eyasluna also has high AA, range, and mag size.

by someotherguy, Hertfordshire, England, Thursday, August 25, 2016, 10:36 (3104 days ago) @ Kahzgul

Yeah, but so do many other handcannons. Maybe it's just me, but it doesnt seem to handle well.

Which is a poor choice of words because as far as I can tell the handling stat is fairly high. But it doesn't feel good to me. *shrug*

I use Lord High Fixer instead. I think the recoil direction is what sells it to me.

I'm voting on all of these from a PvP perspective. Keep in mind that none of these are optimal primary weapons and you're probably better off with a vendor hawksaw and quest CT-D than any of the options listed here.


Finnala's Peril

Reactive Reload and Outlaw? or Mulligan and Underdog?

1 by a wide margin.


Not Like The Others

Crowd Control and Reactive Reload? or Who's Next? and Outlaw?

1.


Deidris's Retort(Threesome Edition)

Underdog and Full Auto?--Surrounded and Rescue Mag?--or Exhumed and Army of One?

Ugh. Definitely not 1. I'd probably take 2. Rescue mag is basically unlimited ammo these days.


The Vacancy

Rangefinder and Danger Close/Hot Swap? or Underdog and Surrounded/Army of One?

1 for sure. Probably not as good as the vendor version though (or the same as? I'm not sure). Vendor roll is awesome so if this is that, keep it, otherwise just buy the vendor one.

Havoc Pigeon

Feeding Frenzy or Cascade?

WTF is cascade?


Quillm's Terminus

Eye of the Storm or Life Leech?

I prefer life leech. That being said, I've been getting much better milage out of Thunderlord lately.


Ruin Wake

Surrounded or Eye of the Storm?

Shard em both. You already have a quillim's if you don't want to use an exotic here.


The Variable

Crowd Control and Eye of the Storm? or Army of One and Underdog?

Shard. Both.


Just look those over and see which ones would be best. Pve, Crucible, it doesn't really matter that much. Let me know which ones you would keep!

It's amazing. My perfect roll party crasher would be:

Aggressive Ballistics
Rangefinder
Rifled Barrel
Rescue Mag

Max range and impact, good change to refill itself whenever you get low on health.

Cascade greatly increases the reload speed of your weapon if you kill someone with a melee.

Observe!

That's pretty damn cool. I would only ever want it on shotguns, fusion rifles, auto rifles or hand cannons (maybe). How have I never seen this mod before?

Pretty sure Murmur had it?

by someotherguy, Hertfordshire, England, Thursday, August 25, 2016, 20:40 (3104 days ago) @ Kahzgul

I had a shotgun(?) with it during HoW. Pair it with War Machine and Loader Gloves for even more ridiculous reloads.
