I got The Wormwood in a FWC package. I don't know if sidearms are really any good, but I've had a lot of luck with this one in the crucible for the thorn bounty. True sight/sureshot/quickdraw is, high caliber rounds/quickdraw, fitted stock/cascade. That roll any good?

Ed; just read the last couple of pages, gently caress you guys sidearms are fun

A CB/HCR Waltz is perfectly serviceable while you burn all your strike keys on omnigul (unless you have a slot lagging behind in light)

My favorite primaries at the moment are genesis chain for pve, PB/counterbalance unbent tree for AR fun, and hammerforged/rangefinder lingering song for hand cannon sniping. Bad Juju gets a nod for archon's forge because it means I never have to reload.

Neither unbent or lingering song are "god" rolls but they are a lot of fun to use and make me look forward to getting different versions of them. I'd love to have a LITC lingering song for example.

I'd be happier with genesis chain if it had a 40 round mag, but as it is firefly on an AR is good times.

(except when wrecks accuses me of not helping him kill the mosh pit of dregs he got himself stuck in on vosik)

The scout doesn't feel that great in PvE IMO if that's what you want it for, even with full auto. It shreds fools in crucible though.

No but
- There have been a ton of great PDX rolls and you should have at minimum two rolling PDX orders
- Clever Dragon exists
- Grasp of Malok exists
- Waltz exits
- Blind Perdition supposedly exists

Ah. I did buy the vendor Waltz while I wait for something good to drop and it seems ok.

One day if I'm lucky I might get a Trials gun. :smith:

Edit: is there a difference between the two PDXs? What am I shooting for, PB/CB/Rifled?

It's better if you get one without full auto for PvE in my opinion. I got an explosive rounds/crowd control one last IB and it's one of my favorite guns to use.

Aim low
- Burn strike keys on Omni
- Rank up FWC for better Waltz's
- Put a PDX order on every character

Yeah, Perdition is p good but there are a ton of much easier options for competitive pulse rifles

yeah a PB(or FS), CB, smallbore (or rifled) hawksaw is still plenty competitive, don't get me wrong. But there are other slightly better options that are reasonably possible to get now, instead of having to farm omnigul during the magic week

after a year of playing with the "mirror" control scheme i switched to "jumper" last night and i think i like it a lot more. i am preemptively apologizing to my raid group this week though for all the times i automatically hit x for a jump and its my super instead

Very good but youll need to use it differently than a max range matador. Ideally you want snapshot and not QuickDraw so you can stack Ophidians or blade perk with it

yeah I switched after playing overwatch because there's a few characters that really need a jumper layout and it was easier to just switch everything than to have a few characters be different

there's a definite adjustment period but ultimately I think it's much better.

having an elite controller or scuf or whatever (or xim) would be better but that's $$$
