PISS TAPE IS REAL

Put in for clan and slack, as always pubs are bad/inconsistent. Been doing strike playlists and enjoying the poo poo out of that, I guess I should try pvp now that I have a better grasp on everything.

Challenge of the Elders is extremely soloable again and it's easy to get 30k on any class (nothing manacles hunger voidlock, simmering flames arma sun breaker, gunslinger with incendiaries and frostees).

It's well worth doing a quick 30k run on your dudes because the fusion, sniper, lmg and RL can all roll top tier competitive pvp rolls.

Examples from last week and this week:


(Three rockets right to the mag with no boots)


(Has triple tap and casket mag for PvE, snapshot and hot swap for pvp)

Not to mention you might get something sick on Variks rank up.



(OES, smallbore, full auto and outlaw or CB. It's a monster in any mode)

I could run these three guns and be competitive up to almost the highest skill levels of pvp. Not bad for a few quick runs.

Is it something a mere 383 hunter who isn't a buff gay dude could solo?

Yes. You should be able to do it. It might take a few tries to figure out the safe spots for handling the waves (first round is right at the entrance, second is entrance or far left in the corner, final round is entrance and far right or left corners on the raised areas).

30k weapons and rank up weapons still own.


ViewTac, Injection Mold, HH. Really snappy and the HH makes up for the loss of AA from the range drop in Injection Mold. VT takes some getting used to but its a solid scope. It flinches like crazy though. Still, fun.


OAS, PB, SS, CB. Properly sick.


OAS, Smallbore, FA, RF. Thing thing will easily 3 burst someone at the full length of the waterfall lane in Pantheon, it's reach is absurd. 18 round mag, bring reload gloves because lol

I don't know about you guys, but I can still regularly grab The Best Around medal with my Nirwen's Mercy. Maybe it's got poo poo perks with Red Dot-OAS, Outlaw, Third Eye & Braced Frame, but usually the only people who can match me is somebody else with a Nirwen's. And that's exceedingly rare.

I've held on to my Nirwen's Mercy, even though it's got a poo poo roll.

Heck, you don't even need CB on Grasp if you have Braced Frame. It's that good.

As an owner of a BF Grasp and leveled it up by only shooting mans, this is correct.

The vendor nirwen's is pretty decent but it's too slow to do well in today's game. Going against a HCR clever dragon will send you back to spawn.

Clever Dragon looks like an old rusty tetanus dick. Emphasis on anus. Nerwins Mercy is classy timeless work of military engineering. With all the emphasis some of you put into your cosmetics, you should be ashamed of yourselves for picking the former over the latter.

How much can you really admire a gun if you can't even spell its name right?

It's hard to admire aesthetics when you're dead.

Congrats on not being in a high SBMM bracket I guess?

For shits and giggles I dropped into the weekly zone control on my alt for my radiant treasure box, didn't have any on meta guns so I said gently caress it and tried anyway.

Literally couldn't kill anyone at all before I'd get blinted or skip naded then Luna or Palindromed, so I popped something in with Ishtar after dying 6 times in a row to finish a respectable 3 and 9.

The meta is absolutely rock solid once you're good enough, buddy.

I'm on PS4, so maybe there's just a larger concentration of bad players? I'd consider myself just barely better than the average pubbies, though.

I just got "The Stranger's Rifle" and I can ascend it, is it worth to spend the 25 legendary marks on it? or will it get replaced soon. It has pretty decent stats compared with the stuff I own.

It's good for where you are, but it won't be very good once you get far into TTK or later content. There's an exotic version of it that can be raised to current power levels available through a quest.

It can't go past 170 after you ascend it so no, not worth it. There's an exotic called No Time to Explain which functions similarity.
