Is there a reason why it seems like less primary ammo drops when I use the SUROS Regime? I hope I'll be able to use it more often again after the patch, but right now I'll regularly run out of ammo. Is that intentional or is it just a bug? Switching to my Secondary/Heavy gets more primary ammo to drop, but it's only like this when the SUROS is equipped.

SR has really bad reserves due to its impact class and Spinning Up exacerbates that. It's a problem with the archetype as a whole in PvE. Run AR ammo perks on your chest of you like using it and deal is the only real option.

Suros has the lowest inventory stat of any AR in the game. The average is around 44, and SR has 20.

So yeah, every brick you pick up will give you less and you'll be holding less in reserve.

The gently caress? 100 equip speed, stupid high aim assist & reload, quick draw. The only reason it fell off in popularity was the shotgun hive mind and people thinking HCR was the only reason to use it.

It's still the only scout worth using. Everything else is niche.

Burning eye is legit though

The ib scout can roll with full auto and is the same fire rate as mida.

I dont expect to see much change from what I've seen the last few weeks in terms of meta there will just be more primary use overall.

A clever dragon and grasp will still be effective and there will still be people trying to ape shotguns when they get special. They'll all just be easier to kill because primaries are getting buffed.

I would like to see the match making parameters relaxed because it would be fun to gently caress about with new weapons to test them out.

I look forward to the people who have shotgun as their most useful weapon crying their little impotent tears into the void though.

Im used to dropping into a game with 12 sniper rounds though which has made using tlw viable to run in any situatio . I doubt I'll change that because theres been plenty of games where I just don't bother sniping but it might force me to use pulses a bit more which i dont mind too much.

They're commonly referred to as "hidden" stats because bungie figured no one playing the game would ever care about them.

Most destiny db sites reveal them but that assumes you're enough of a sperg to go look that stuff up. I did up a table version of it here:

It's not perfect (someday I should get perks working but I might as well wait for destiny 2 at this point) but it's kind of fun to click around on.

Small mag size but can roll HCR which will be fixed. Or Explosive Rounds, tho in the same column as Auto. For sure an alternative. But not for me, MIDA is irreplaceable. It kills stupids, and smarts, so good.

If only they'd fix it so firefly and explosive rounds worked together.

Or at least stop making guns that can have both perks active.

I have two goto scout rifles. One is Jade Rabbit. The other is this Angel's Advocate.



When proc'd it's a 3 headshot kill. Wish it had outlaw but it's still filthy (edit- for a scout rifle)

Depends on what you're shooting. If the base damage kills it, boom. If the base damage weakens it and the explosion finishes it off, that doesn't count as precision damage, no boom.
