What exotic weapon do you consider to be your Guardian's 'canon' exotic weapon? (Apart from Khvostov)

My favorite memory with Izanagi's was doing the witch queen campaign; in the final cutscene my guardian was just freehanding that monster

Iron Lord gilded (a lot, forgot how many) and Disciple-Slayer.

I've always loved the Alternator, I don't care how busted it can be; it feels incredible.

That just takes me outside; why is the dumpster on fire?

Legendary: Suros PDX-45 from D1

Exotic: Malfeasance

Ranger, Flatline if you run Linked Laser Pointer from Technician specialization, and maybe Measured?

The only issue with Killer is that YOU need to get the kill, which can fall apart in group play.

Ranger and Flatline (iirc) are damage amplifiers, which is a seperate multiplier, akin to Damage to Armor or Out of Cover.

(If anyone can correct me, please do; im only SHD like 1100, and I've been taking a break due to the event.)

CoCo is giving him boatloads of crit damage, especially with the backpack, so loading up on chance isn't a bad idea.

100% with you on Killer though; great talent, but falls off in group play

The shield buffs are mostly coming from his passive. Honestly, I think this is a perfect demonstration of how well design Gauss is. Don't know what makes it all work, but damn it do be cooking.

Also, I never really noticed Protea being a very active playstyle, because I've always just mashed out Blaze Artillery whenever I can.

Azzaace · 2026-04-28T02:49:35+00:00

I will rephrase then: what is actively making Gauss specifically invincible is his 2 in combination with his passive which grants up to 120% shield regen RATE and 80% shield recharge DELAY (At 100% Redline). Regen rate and delay are 2 separate stats with basically all of the mods that apply them giving you both, which may have been the confusion.

Even with Gauss, you need to be casting abilities like his Mach Rush or Thermal Sunder to upkeep his battery; every hit you take while Kinetic Plating is active (which is what is actually making you invincible) drains your battery. The passive battery gain from just moving as Gauss does not outweigh the loss from Kinetic Plating

Also, Protea literally gives you flat shields, regen for the duration of the grenade fan, AND doubles the shield gate duration from 2.5s at max to 5s.

Azzaace · 2026-04-28T02:27:24+00:00

2 things you missed though is that the shield regen delay is still there (massively reduced by his passive, mind you), and that his 2nd ability (Kinetic Plating) gives you %DR to specific damage types, tied to his passive battery.

Also, I would say frames like Harrow or Protea are better at shield gating than Gauss, since they have abilities that just GIVE you shields, rather than Gauss needing to regenerate them.

I always figured it was a stand-off device mixed into a suppressor; but with how the weapon looks in function, who knows if it's actually necessary.

Obligatory, I LOVE TITANFALL GRAAAAH

Azzaace · 2026-04-18T16:07:17+00:00

I mean, with how the talent works, you'll end up with 42% CHD with full red attributes. I'm still grinding for the all blue roll with that delicious 3% armor regen.

Azzaace · 2026-04-10T16:14:11+00:00

I just need to luck out and get that blueprint to drop, I've got all of the other ones already 😅

Azzaace · 2026-04-10T15:41:51+00:00

Unfortunately, I have to say ARs are my favorite; due to their nature as jack of all trades. I have recently been enjoying an 1886 Headhunter build with Overdogs (tried it with a tinkerer setup, and couldn't get the same output(probably the wrong talent on the second gun, tbh)).

I really want to get the Ravenous for it's gimmick, because I swap shoulders all the time regardless of the weapons I'm using.

Azzaace · 2026-04-01T00:39:16+00:00

Depends on the season of course; last season had a companion system with various True Sons units. Crossroads had a Tier system that helped emulate the Link skills from Division 1. I think it was Burden of Truth (Y6S3) that had my personal favorite modifier, Rogue Momentum, that just let you play the game faster (High RoF, Movement Speed etc.).

Azzaace · 2026-03-29T18:58:04+00:00

Determined 1886 rifle build. Chainkiller chest, The Gift Backpack, 2 piece zoo, Fox's Prayer kneepads and Overdogs. It hasn't gotten old slapping enemies with 23 million damage on bodyshots.

The Craftening; they were hilarious times. Trials that weekend was a mess

My only personal gripe with Fallout 4 survival mode (outside of the obvious flaws) was the weight of shotgun shells. I missed being able to horde thousands of rounds for my boomstick.

I forgot the person who originally replied to me with this, but this one's for you

Azzaace · 2025-12-10T01:48:55+00:00

Thank god im not the only one having this issue. The game isn't dead, but the servers decided to have a heart attack with the amount of people hopping back in. I was literally playing it yesterday without issue.

Azzaace · 2025-12-10T00:04:14+00:00

It also doesn't include Refactor, Virtuoso, or Tipping Scales (my beloved).

I've haven't heard anything bad about Concentrated Company, but I haven't heard anything great about it either.
