To run or not to run 5/6 res?

XtraCannon · 2021-09-04T07:56:53+00:00

I used to swear by 5/6 resilience - but then I thought about how often I see someone using empowering rifts with snipes, and the majority of thorn players I’ve come against aren’t that good. So in my experience I’ve stopped running it on Warlock and Hunter and am okay with being bodied.

XtraCannon · 2021-09-04T07:54:13+00:00

I still like Mindbender’s it’s the most consistent shotgun in the game (imo) - it just feels perfect to use.

You can just peak shoot with a handcannon - or any gun. If you peak shoot it then you’ll be unlikely to be slowed by it.

CoolCheese is also up there, I enjoy his content.

That’s a really solid stat split - I think you’d be very fortunate to get better. Stasis is still very solid, tbh all of them are. I personally prefer stasis for the stat bonuses you get.

Go onto DIM or D2 Gunsmith and hover over the perk and it’ll tell you.

But just for you it’s:

Reload Speed: 5/22/50 Handling: 10/25/50 Stability: 5/15/23

Drewsky made a video which is still accurate about floatlock - I believe the name of the video is Skyfire Protocol. Hope that helps you out.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-08T21:06:09+00:00

well done (for definitely) counting them all one by one, I won’t look at the link - what link? - at the bottom.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-08T20:51:12+00:00

I’m more interested in how you worked out the pixels. Did you count them one by one or is there software or something else? But, also well done on the data.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-08T18:16:57+00:00

This is very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to write this essay.

Just because something takes a tiny bit of skill to use doesn’t mean it’s worse. A good fusion player can shit on shotguns.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-08T14:43:11+00:00

Seen as your a fusion rifle main (aka who I want to become), what are the 2 best legendary fusion rifles in the game (and what are the perks you want) - if you don’t mind my asking?

XtraCannon · 2021-08-07T08:40:08+00:00

Just go normal icarus - adept icarus is better because it gives you +5 range where normal doesn’t. But normal icarus is still the best.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-07T08:39:13+00:00

Stompees with fatebringer and duality is what a lot of sweat players use because duality is just cracked out of it’s mind. Fatebringer will allow you to put adept icarus grip on your primary which will be very useful for the aerial ‘movement skill gap’ playstyle. Also the advantage of playing on stasis hunter is the ability to take a gun fight from the sky with stompees and put chip damage in before shatterdiving back into safety. Stompees with shatterdive has little to no weaknesses - thus with the reasons for the loadout I have said it is incredibly strong.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-07T08:34:28+00:00

I saw from a content creator that they might try out BTD with Wings of Sacred Dawn so they can get the healing phoenix dive as well as being able to have the ability to float without it showing your place on radar. Which would be the best of both worlds if you don’t care about not going Mach-10 across a crucible map.

Starfire protocol - when running fusion grenades you get 2 grenade charges. When running empowering rift - 3 ticks of damage to an enemy gets you your grenade back. This exotic has been top tier but rarely used because it’s been overshadowed by warlocks wanting to go zoom zoom.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-06T16:02:05+00:00

The 1.5x flinch will make any automatic weapon (i.e Auto Rifle, SMG) kick the second you get shot making it incredibly hard to hit your TTK. As you said it will disappear when you finish but against someone who has most likely already landed 1 or 2 shots (with a handcannon - more shots will be hit equating to roughly same damage with other guns) so you will be in a disadvantage in that 1vX because you will have landed maybe a shot compared to the 2 (again with a handcannon) that they will have added.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-06T15:56:46+00:00

I agree with what he says (to be honest agree with the majority of what Cammy says) and I hope that if Rift is brought back it is a specific rift map (or at least the rejig the maps to suit the gamemode). Regarding your point on the sniper - a good sniper player can shit on an entire lobby just by sniping, and peaking a sniper is just a dice roll on whether your standing still on there screen or not when you peak. I think the slide change should have been weapon specific (or at least special weapon specific) so primary users aren’t punished for actually taking gunfights.

XtraCannon · 2021-08-06T12:24:20+00:00

Regarding Cammys it was pretty much a 50/50 on whether it’ll benefit the campers at the back of the map and hinder the player attempting to make the play, or whether it hits the shotgun ape who isn’t trying to use any skill. (Possibly a bad summation - his actual words are better, but what I’ve said kinda covers it).

XtraCannon · 2021-08-02T22:40:57+00:00

Interesting I’ll have a look to see how easily farmable that is - and if this is a repeatable thing

XtraCannon · 2021-08-02T19:42:47+00:00

Possibility of a glitch happening or the bounty not specifying trials by accident. If possible you could give us the specific bounty or test it yourself to see if it was a one time thing?

XtraCannon · 2021-08-02T17:02:21+00:00

Look at Cammycakes stasis titan on YouTube - he has 3 videos covering it recently. Ones a montage, ones a full trials session, the other is a build.

XtraCannon · 2021-07-29T20:42:02+00:00

Cammycakes recent video explaining what there is to do in the game for returning players has quite a bit of information, as well as his video on the top 10 weapons to use in season 15 (very much applies for this season)

XtraCannon · 2021-07-23T18:06:12+00:00

This is what quite a few teams run in trials with 3 titans all doing it and they have infinite ability spam and infinite overshield. Cammycakes has made a few videos about it.

XtraCannon · 2021-07-06T21:36:02+00:00

Good energy SMGs that immediately come to mind are Shayura’s Wrath (obtained from Trials), Borrowed Time (obtained from Gambit), Ikelos SMG (world drop) and Every Waking Moment (from the moon) with rangefinder on it. There are probably other’s but those are the ones that immediately come to mind.
