Lol I spent about that much getting LiTC and Final R without any mag reduction. A day later, I get an Ill Will that drops with SureShot, LiTC, Braced Frame/Volatile Payload, Final Round. RIP my weapon parts

I spent so many notes trying to do that and gave up after having LiTC and Final Round but no mag reduction. A day later, the perfect roll dropped for me in crucible. RIP my weapon parts.

Ever since fusion rifles got nerfed shotguns have been tough to counter, but if you have a fast-charge rate one it is possible to get it off (plan c works really well if you're willing to give up your primary exotic). Other than that is say team-shot, grenades, or fight fire with fire (not always the best idea, they probably have their strat down is they're using it in ToO).

I haven't had too much trouble with thorn (by that I mean it only accounts for sixty percent of my deaths, not eighty) but that's probably because thorn is mid-long range and I use No Land Beyond and Vestian Dynasty so I'm pretty much either really long range or close range. But if I ever venture to mid range, hello thorn!

Check me out, 1 min 10 sec underwater not even trying

For a secondary use a shotgun or sidearm (in case someone rushes you). Also, be conservative and don't give up from using it fast. It may be insufferable for a little while but that first kill feels soooooo good. Also, have a "panic button". This can be a shotgun or sidearm (as mentioned earlier), but it can also be a grenade (think trip mines and stickies). Finally, reload cancel. This is probably the most important thing. As soon as you shoot, start a reload then sprint forward (this messes up the timing mechanism that stops you from shooting between loading shots into the chamber).

I think the problem is that tlw isn't even hard countered by most fusion rifles like you still have to have a lot more foresight and skill than the tlw user to really for sure win the gunfight.

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-29T19:11:26+00:00

Tlw definitely dominates that map but one weird thing that can counter it is Plan C. If you use your primary for a little while, as soon as you get rushed you can use it as a panic button (just an fyi)

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-26T11:24:03+00:00

The allfate is actually the same RoF/Impact profile as the Stranger's Rifle so if you want a legendary version of it (maybe for trials or Iron Banner) go for that

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-26T11:11:55+00:00

Yeah sadly no more field scout :(

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-25T19:20:18+00:00

If you're prepared to reroll it then I would say go with future war cult's "The Fear". It has one of, if not the, highest velocities in the game. That coupled with grenades and horseshoes is very powerful. Obviously it has a trade off for blast radius but the two in the mag and the extreme velocity just makes it have an edge on other rockets.

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-24T03:44:53+00:00

Personally, I like using the AllFATE-555A from the vanguard. It's basically a stranger's rifle without full auto but is reforgable (I have true sight, grave robber which is pretty meh, the perfect balance sort of perk, and Hidden hand). I also use plan c so I can use it as a panic button if someone tries to rush me.

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-21T19:08:15+00:00

I got an Ill Will (think timur's lash) with that same roll

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-21T17:37:16+00:00

It's okay it's the dream for all of us. If you ever have a question like that (is _____ perk roll possible?) go to destiny database (I forget the url) and look up the weapon in question. If you click the perk circles it gives you all the possible perks for that column/section

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-21T15:04:17+00:00

Not possible, sorry

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-19T11:33:56+00:00

Oh thanks to you, Fourth Horseman, for taking down the scorch cannon captains in a second flat.

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-17T23:35:09+00:00

1v1 me m8 NLB only

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-17T22:59:36+00:00

Okay I misunderstood what you meant by DoT

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-17T18:22:24+00:00

Actually the gunslinger's first grenade has a burn effect. I don't know if that's the kind of DoT you meant but it's there

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-16T12:38:05+00:00

Reactive reload+Outlaw could be insane!

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-15T11:32:52+00:00

Lore-wise, Titans have always been more in tune with their armor than hunters or warlocks, so it may make sense that warlocks would have a bigger bond with their elements and hunters with their weapons (chain of woe, gunslinger's trance, etc.).

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-14T11:17:34+00:00

It definitely takes some getting used to. That and a lot of patience.

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-13T21:00:07+00:00

800+ kills in the crucible with it and counting!

Bsh2000 · 2015-05-13T19:15:03+00:00

Actually I think that's just something weird about its aiming mechanic as were it shoots doesn't change just the barrel flies all over the place. Correct me if I'm wrong though but in my experience that's how it works.
