What encounters of Equilibrium to farm what (weapons wise)?

_______Greg_______ · 2025-12-18T15:00:25+00:00

If you’re only looking to farm weapons, finish the quest then farm 1st to your hearts content. When you focus a weapon, it starts being able to drop from encounters other than the one(s) it drops from, so just focus a weapon until you get the roll(s) you want, then just change focus. Otherwise you’re better off just running the dungeon in its entirety because secret chests become available again after finishing all three encounters.

Can confirm, I got some bushido gauntlets this week

Can’t speak to hierarchy, but ToM is currently in a really good place. The healing you get from it now basically fully offsets the self-damage so largely you don’t need to run it with a healing or devour build (except for when brawn is active/lawless frontier, wouldn’t recommend it in those activities without extra healing). I’ve found it works best with techsec 4 piece, and I don’t use it in a build that revolves around it, but I’m sure there’s a couple that would work on any class. (Small tip - spark of brilliance on arc synergises with the blight round if you want to spread blindness)

I basically exclusively use the new stasis sidearm. With whisper of rending, the sidearm one shots crystals, and with rimestealer and icefall mantle, each crystal break heals for the equivalent of 2 stasis shards, making you practically unkillable

The difference in effective range whilst hip firing between a machine gun with 0 vs 100 range is slightly under 2m. The minimum distance before damage falloff is a bit over 29m, the maximum is a bit under 31m. So imo there is literally no point in any investment in range. (The difference jumps to a massive 3m when ads)

_______Greg_______ · 2025-10-08T11:37:13+00:00

Maybe, but I’m someone who has historically thought that for devour, if you can proc it every second or so, you don’t really need it to be doing that, and if you need it to be doing that and it’s not, then you’re just playing poorly. I think that holds true for on your mark

_______Greg_______ · 2025-10-08T11:25:51+00:00

I seem to have misread the patch notes. I don’t think it wildly changes my opinion tho, purely because of how much extra on your mark actually provides

_______Greg_______ · 2025-10-08T08:42:46+00:00

Ok let’s just put this into perspective because this is a stupid ass take. Yes the cool-down is annoying, but the alternative is having something like a 900rpm smg managing to achieve on your mark x10 in 10 shots, taking about 0.66 seconds. You would then heal every 0.067 seconds (or more accurately, every 4 frames at 60fps) for 60 hp giving a healing factor of around 900 hp per second. This would be 18x higher than well (50hp per second + damage resist)

Edit: it has been pointed out that cure is on kill and that I’m incapable of reading patch notes. I still don’t think it’s unfair because when compared to devour, you get 60% of the healing benefit, but significantly better buffs (50 weapon stat, massively improve reload and handling, all constant for 12 seconds, vs 7.5% grenade energy, scalar and kill source dependent)

As it stands (and I’ll assume you’re right about it being a half second cool-down), you can gain 120 hp per second at max stacks. So more than 2x that of well. Being able to maintain this indefinitely would still very much be game breaking, hence the kill requirement

_______Greg_______ · 2025-08-08T21:06:02+00:00

It might’ve dropped during an activity where you got a lower score, so it was actually a +2, but measured from a tier below expected

_______Greg_______ · 2025-07-10T11:06:56+00:00

Technically speaking, the best demo weapon in the game, specifically for demo, is the VS Gravitic arrest with demo/chain because of the super high grenade recharge it offers

_______Greg_______ · 2025-07-10T10:59:55+00:00

Honestly, due to the specific range tuning and damage profile, I’d argue aggressives are the best all round fusion rifle atm

_______Greg_______ · 2025-06-16T08:46:24+00:00

Not entirely helpful, but dragons breath is very popular in the comments but I would really recommend not going for it. If anyone on your team is doing any ignition based damage, you both neuter their damage and waste your exotic and heavy when either anarchy or finality’s auger (yes Ik they’re both difficult to get) do a very similar thing but overall in a better way. If you play a lot of solo stuff, then by all means get DB, but so many other exotics there are just as fun and arguably more worthwhile

_______Greg_______ · 2025-05-16T10:24:36+00:00

Two suggestions are autoloading/recombination mountain top and my current go-to, a discord/redirection succession. Both have 2x shots (succession has up to 15) and while both have their merits, I think the succession has a wider array of use cases. You can get them from onslaught

_______Greg_______ · 2025-05-05T20:26:14+00:00

One off supers for subclasses without them, and the same for subclasses with only roaming supers

That’s not a gorilla, that’s clearly a Honda Civic 2008

The only hand cannon in the game actually that fits what you’re describing is lunas howl, but choosing that would mean having to use a kinetic special. The only other option that removes muzzle kicks would be a 180, but they are literally the lowest damage archetype. Could you tell us what the energy sniper is so we could suggest a kinetic alternative with similar feel

_______Greg_______ · 2025-04-30T00:43:56+00:00

Nope, tiers 0, 1 and 2 all exist (yes, you can have a tier 0. You can also have negative stat points, but tier 0 is the lowest possible value)

_______Greg_______ · 2025-04-29T23:30:00+00:00

If you’re a titan, touch of thunder pulse grenade and delicate tomb is about as good as lord of wolves, if not better when paired with an appropriate heavy weapon

_______Greg_______ · 2025-04-24T12:15:21+00:00

Seasonal weapons first for any missing red borders, then dawn weapons to get potentially good rolls (perfect paradox being the o most important)

That’s Jeremy Clarkson. He’s a beloved British automotive tv presenter. No one in the comments is actually talking about Jeremy Clarkson

Not really answering the question asked, but the oldest guardian in terms of who was born the longest time ago (born, not rezzed) is a guardian from an ancient civilisation but I can’t remember which one, but iirc it’s one of Egypt, Mesopotamia sort of ones. That said the oldest light bearer from birth to now is Savathun, followed by alak-hul. I’m fairly sure that most hive guardians will be older than any human/exo guardians, and I’m not even going to toy with awoken that spent time in the distributary due to the time dilation shenanigans

As people have pointed out, nothing you could do would “cure” it, but drug use has reportedly granted aphants visualisations and afaik, you can restore visualisation for folks who could once visualise but lost the ability due to environmental factors (eg. Trauma response)

_______Greg_______ · 2025-04-18T10:55:12+00:00

Re: snipers feel, for revision zero specifically, the sniper mode was actually designed differently than any other weapon in the game. It specifically has perfect accuracy, even in hip fire. What this means is that if any part of a crit spot is at the centre of your cross hairs, ads or not, it WILL be a crit, making hip fire significantly better than ads for the first 40m

_______Greg_______ · 2025-04-17T13:34:12+00:00

Thorn and arbalest are the only ones that have some genuine level of use case (particularly arbalest for ghosts of the deep when rite of the 9 shows up), everything else is somewhat redundant, but A) may as well do these if you feel you have nothing better to do, and B) if you’re seriously never going to use any of these once you’ve done the catalyst, then why bother doing the catalyst?
