[@enjoiandrew4]

It's literally pointless right now. The roll combos are bugged. Bungie was wrong the other day about perk weighting. There is a bug that effects drop combos based on their place in the perk list in the API, and I doubt it will be fixed any time soon

[@thealldayspecial]

Endless amounts of respect. You still might be one of the few legit people willing to cut the bs and have a practical conversation about Legendary Primaries and how they're not something you need to overthink or make a science project over. I'm just so sick of the clickbait nonsense of "you need to farm endlessly for this perfect primary that only satisfies 1 specific build or else", and deep down it really doesn't matter to that degree.

[@Kait07_]

Switching the name of the weapon for the "identity" was a really good idea!

[@ahawkone8850]

Off topic, but as a Parasite enjoyer, I very much enjoyed Contest Mode of the new dungeon. Using Parasite to demolish the Yellow Bar Snipers in the first encounter was awesome, as was using it on the Servitor Boss to supplement the Titan Behemoths!

[@SpiderReviver]

Parasite put in work in newest contest dungeon. During my run, 3rd person was an lfg and with parasite we cleared 1st encounter in like 4 tries by using parasite to delete bulkier targets. And it helped do actual dps in 2nd encounter, managed a 2 phase under contest with 1 behemoth titan and 3 parasites.

[@amorfati4927]

Parasite is pretty common in my Loadouts anymore. Chunk or delete large targets, if for some reason you need to blow up a room of adds (you’re other weapons don’t do it or your abilities are on cooldown somehow) it does that well too. Just one solar holster mod and you plug and play. If you’re not optimizing for boss DPS or something leg mods tend to be pretty lackluster. So on most builds I’m running one Better Already, one Recuperation and I can either do some random ability regen mod or put on solar holster and equip the beast of everything outside of boss DPS and just use orbs to special finisher.

[@insomniaddictesp]

Good change to focus on function, helps with maybe choosing an alternate if you're just unlucky.

[@Weebfox]

The dungeon having a few really good weapons and Icebreaker for fun stasis builds is nice, makes already fun content even more worth to run when the drop payoff also has a lot of potential

[@Based_Shogun]

10:25 Blast Furnace with KT/ Frenzy and Hung Jury with KT/ Explosive are literally the best legendaries in slot, and will melt champs, mini bosses, vehicles, majors, and fills your transcendence bar up. Super slept on for those who rock kinetic primaries.

[@rafeaustin]

I respectfully disagree. Midnight coup with exp payload one for all is better as the exp payload explosions procs one for all. Whereas kinetic tremors does not. But both of those are good choices. But one for all is a 35% damage buff.

[@Based_Shogun]

@@rafeaustin I have it and have used it. The issue with it and why it's nowhere near the above weapons is the small magazine and constantly reloading. Oh, and I use my explosive/frenzy roll over my OFA one because we're not talking about just ad clear. Your roll is pretty weak against tanky combatants since its damage perk is moot without ads to proc it. Frenzy at least will have that lightning fast reload and handing, and the 15% damage. I've got 1400 kills with mine and 800 kills with yours. Different tools for different jobs, but KT/frenzy is insane for ads as well since you can just hold down the trigger and move from one to the next to keep it proccing and getting the massive AOEe effect with the frenzy benefits as well.

[@rafeaustin]

@@Based_Shogun thanks for your the reply. Yes it’s a HC and has less mag capacity. However mine has 14 w back up mag and a 78 reload with flared mag well so its not an issue for me and I ad a kinetic reload perk as well. As far as mini bosses go OFA procs simply off of exp payload so hitting ads before is not required. And not to mention every activity in the game that’s harder content has high add density so I’m missing your point there. What’s great about it is that it will 1 shot most red bars in high level content. And for mini bosses or champions in something like a GM or a dungeon I’m using a special or heavy weapon w ability spam to chunk their damage not a primary. I have a fatebringer with frenzy and exp payload and it’s a great weapon, and I have those roles you mentioned in your initial post also, but the synergy and damage profile with exp payload and OFA is unmatched imo. And because OFA stacks more quickly with that role it requires less ammo to reach max damage output vs KT on a pulse/scout. But if you’re play style is to sit in the back of the map with a long ranch high cap mag weapon then sure pulses and scouts w frenzy kinetic do that well.

You're welcome to disagree, but I think you're sleeping on Icebreaker a bit. IMHO, (and maybe it's because I'm just cracked out of my mind with snipers) but I genuinely believe Icebreaker is one of the best ad clear weapons in the game. When I can land back to back headshots on red bars in a raid or GM, I'll usually clear them faster than I could with even sunshot. Not to mention, I think it's optimal in envious arsenal DPS rotations. Realistically, I'm only shooting 1 shot from my other weapons, because most of my dps comes from the GL anyway. However, it does the most damage per 1 shot (outside izi) of any special ammo sniper. Plus, you get the added bonus that it's hyper ammo efficient with double special. I, personally, have been steam rolling with icebreaker + rocket sidearm on prismatic titan.

Chat is an envious b&s bitter sweet better than a cascade b&s chill inhibitor

[@SpiderReviver]

Different rolls for different situations (also chill inhibitor can get env+BnS as well). env is better for more sustained rotations while cascade is better for burst or more niche rotations that can consistently reload gun quickly (RoF, impetus shurikens, etc.). Also different elements, stasis doesn't have many great rotation options while arc has a few. So, keeping a bitter/sweet with good roll is still useful.

@@SpiderReviver I have that roll of bittersweet and have envious explosive light chill inhibitor. Would like to know this as well lol?

[@realnoble676]

In terms of a 1-1 comparison between bitter sweet & inhibitor inhibitor is better. Rapid fire frames are better then adaptives but have for the longest time lacked good perks, but this doesn’t meant bitter sweet is bad, it’s better then edge transit right now because envious assassin is broken. For an example in something with surges, I would rather use bitter sweet over chill inhibitor if there’s an arc surge and no stasis surge. TLDR: Inhibitor is better but they are both still very good .

[@philalex7256]

i personally think bitter/sweet is flat out better than chill inhibitor in terms of dps i dont understand the hype i personally think a few adaptives are better than chill inhibitor... envious arsenal cascade point bitter/sweet paired with cloudstrike is nuts since both are arc and you can skip the reload animation.

[@amorfati4927]

It’s the archetype that makes it statistically better. Everything always just depends on paring combo. Bitter/Sweet really does fill the hole Arc had in the heavy GL category. VS Chill Inhibitor also filled the hole Stasis had in the heavy GL category. Then the truth of the matter is that it doesn’t matter because all people are doing is min/maxing when regardless you can 1-2 phase most everything without optimizing and only a couple times out of a hundred would it make a difference.

[@Fr0styFriend]

If I need to run an exotic heavy, what are some recommendations you have to fill out my kinetic and energy slot? Like strand rocket sidearm with an energy primary? Or is double special the play?

[@SpiderReviver]

Depends on content/build. During contest dungeon I ran zauoli's with an area denial gl (mostly to build transendence). But plenty of gm speedruns will run double rocket sidearm since they are good for transcendence and still pretty ammo efficient. During most other content I can run consecration with ergo sum + until its return/the call and have 0 ammo issues. If your build is ability focused, double special is still great. If it's weapon focused (like many prismatic warlock builds for example) you probably would consider a primary.

[@cranklovesyou5311]

While I know the nerf to lp was targeted towards boss dps, it pains me to see it's viability into gm level content or even legendary lost sectors be hurt. Before the chnages you could at least kill one champion in one lp activation with a god roll wardens law.

What makes chill inhibitor better than other gls like edge transit, just the faster fire rate and deeper reserves? Also what perks are you looking for on it?

[@SpiderReviver]

Rapid fires have slightly better dps. Main thing for chill inhibitor vs. edge transit is envious arsenal is way more generally applicable than assassin. Too many ways for assassin to lose its stack before going into a damage phase compared to arsenal proccing on every rotation. 5/5 roll: Quick launch, spike (use backup mag to get 8 in the mag), envious arsenal, BnS, Handling MW. Can replace arsenal with cascade point for burst dps (EL also great for burst dps) and more niche rotations with good reload options (RoF, impetus, etc.).

where did you talk about that exotic special thing you mentioned at 18:35? i remeber it slightly but im forgetting when you talke about it

How would Lumina fit into this list especially since you had the healing auto rifle on there? Would it be suitable as an alternative, or is it not worth the exotic slot over other options?

[@SpiderReviver]

I think it's an alright alternative. Hard to argue for the exotic slot since it only gives 35% empowering buff (which is effectively 8% buff over radiant). But, it still has it's use. Still good for speedrunners (especially for lumina grappling) and for general dps situations for an extra damage boost. Would mainly use it when you need a small dps boost and neutral game/survivability isn't an issue.

[@TheAegisRelic]

Lumina lost a lot of value post-No Hesitation release but it's still useful in some cases (like when you don't have a Well)

[@jwilsonred1913]

Does higher blast radius lower damage on heavy GLs like it does for specials? I’ve seen conflicting answers/results

[@TheAegisRelic]

Yeah but very very minimally

[@bleppss2769]

have you tested bitter/sweet with the artifact mods vs chill inhibitor. I know that chill inhibitor is better right now i was just wondering how bitter/sweet did with the artifact mods

[@SpiderReviver]

iirc rapid-fire have ~10% better dps. Artifact mod "Conductive Cosmic Crystal" is a 10% boost to damage (with tonic). So, bitter/sweet should be pretty much equivalent to chill inhibitor if you keep enemy stasis debuffed.

[@Clewe01]

Could I ask why people use the kinetic slot for a 12 punch shotgun? I am trying to make that build but it seems like you'd wanna use that slot for navigator?

[@SpiderReviver]

After you place navigator point you can always swap off and keep majority of special. Kinetic slot also has perfect paradox which is the best 12p shotgun and swordbreaker if you need a strand option (pairs nicely with thread of propagation or the equivalent prismatic fragment). Basically, boss dps scenarios you can just swap to using perfect after placing grapple point or for neutral game it doesn't see as much play since strand titan has been overshadowed for gm speeds and other neutral game areas.

[@TheAegisRelic]

Also people tend to use exotic energy primary so that's a thing too

Aegis, would it be possible to add desired exotic class item rolls to your spreadsheet?

[@SpiderReviver]

I know he thought about it in the past, but didn't really want to rank 192 possible combinations. It could be worth to list maybe top 3-5 rolls on each class since that would be a less arduous process.

[@TheAegisRelic]

Yeah I might do like a best of

[@qualityqontent337]

You were saying its quite niche to run a primary kinetic weapon yet you highly reccomend the new breach grenade launcher from the new dungeon. What weapon would you reccomend used in the kinetic slot paired with said grenade launcher (or something like aberrant)

[@SpiderReviver]

The Call/Tinasha's Mastery are both valid options for that slot. Rocket sidearms even post-nerf have enough ammo for most things that have rally flags.

[@qualityqontent337]

@SpiderReviver So double special is still totally viable? I thought Aegis mentioned in the vid that it was a little more difficult with the reserve nerfs.

[@lazykb]

A shotgun for damage or mountaintop. Maybe rocket side arm if Titan

[@realnoble676]

@@qualityqontent337it is more difficult, but that doesn’t mean not viable, just compared to what it used to be it’s more difficult. Double special has always been viable just run special finisher and scav mods, and if you have a dps phase just swap loadouts

[@SpiderReviver]

@@qualityqontent337 Highly dependent on build & situation. I use consecration titan with stuff like ergo sum & until its return (or the call) and never run into ammo problems even over long activities like gms. However, if you rely more on weapons, sidearm reserve nerf hurts a lot. It's no longer an easy always viable choice, but much more situational depending on activity & loadout.
