If it has field scout alone it's worth keeping, I'm actually hoping to get it one day in void.

lol I'll use it no matter what, but it doesn't quite have that range.

Thunderlord will melt Sepiks so fast he won't even get time to teleport.

Pretty sure I got it, hopping on now.

Yep, did that last time. Unloaded 2 clips and he was pretty much dead, I don't think the Shanks had even spawned yet.

I'm giving you the same reaction I gave her:
Point proven.

You can get crit shots on the walker from the starting cheese area, the range is that good.
or was at least, might not be as effective after the HC range nerf.

Hey, I'm the person who said "you'll have to rip Fatebringer from my cold dead hands".
You don't need to convince me it's that good.

I still need to put XP in last 3 bubbles
Also between Fang and FB, don't forget FB explosions are also arc. On arc burn NF this means if you hit crit, you pretty much clear the room.
The annoying part of this is AR's were already not the best weapon in PvP. Smart people used other weapons.
The whole AR nerf is puzzling.
They will. Just not yet. The time to say goodbye will come when Destiny 2 and Bungie decides to not allow character transferring.Hey, I'm the person who said "you'll have to rip Fatebringer from my cold dead hands".

Wish I had a Fatebringer, probably the most OP arc primary in the game, especially for Arcburn.
Looking forward to breaking in my recently maxed Fang.
Gonna give Edict a good workout too, but no where near maxed.

Yeah, I pity those dregs.
Guess I'll switch my loadout:
FB + Arc Supremacy + Thunderlord for starting area and Sepkis.
Fang + P&T + Arc Admonisher for Walker.

Bungie don't care, man. Bungie don't care.
Gonna use Arc Efrideet's against Walker/Sepktis tomorrow. Same impact as Black Hammer. Patience and Time has crappy impact. It'll be good in an arc burn but I'd only use it if it was my only arc sniper. I don't think P&T is very good in PVE at all unless you need to abuse the invisibility.
No Fatebringer so Fang or Oversoul Edict for me. And of course Thunderlord.

Arc burn, it is?
Primary
Fang or Fatebringer? With Arc burn, I suppose the difference in TTK will be miniscule, so I'm gonna go with Fatebringer.
Special
LDR or P&T? As far as I remember, the former has higher impact. So, LDR it is.
Maybe Light of the Abyss or Plan C if I need to get closer to enemies.
Heavy
Valedictorian, Song of Ir Yut or Swarm? My Swarm is pre-DLC and therefore capped at 300 damage, but its impact and stability are huge, so I'm gonna go with this one.

Shotguns are pretty much useless for Nightfall except for rare circumstances.
I expect Bungie to nerf shotguns after swinging the pendulum way too far the other way, but I hope they keep it. Shotgun use is way up, but not so high that it dwarfs usage of any thing else and really, its not that game breaking. It makes numerous encounters way more fun and there is still the increased risk of close quarter combat.

Ha ha ha ROC strike just gave me another Plan C. Would've preferred something I didn't already have but can't complain.
Bungie better not nerf shotguns. They finally made a weapon genuinely fun for PVE.

Why wouldn't you use Tlord on Sepiks? Do the Field Scout to Perfect Balance trick. The first magazine alone will drop him to less than half health. If others do similarly, he drops in seconds.
Well, you'll have to wait for Xur to show up to finish it.

Fang
Longbow (Don't have an LDR, impact still good)
Thunderlord
Will also do one NF with Edict. Pulse Rifle buff + Arc and auto fire sounds delicious.

wait, septic tomorrow? aww yiss
been waiting for a NF i can solo

Yeah I probably will. Was just thinking that it's easy to stunlock him with Efrideets/BH impact but might as well just tear it up with Thunder.
It'll probably be my main weapon for the first part too. When I use Thunderlord I tend to use it like a primary weapon

Fatebringer works well enough on those bastard shanks. Takes like 3 shots max to take down their shields.
This week's NF is the easiest one to solo.
If you can stand cheese...

Not confirmed, but leaker data mine says Sepik.
Seems reasonable too considering it has been a while.
Darknyss09
Member
eh, I would switch to IB or Abyss Defiant for the shanks. They are pretty much a wave all to themselves. Save heavy for the captains. They are essentially the bosses of that NF.

What if it's Omnigul on arc burn?

glitching out of the map sounds really sweaty so i didn't bother.
I'm not sure why I even listen to it. It just makes me mad every time.

Valus is easy to solo.
Not when you are soloing it and you're being shot at by 3-4 of them at the same time. And Fatebringer reloads slow when you don't get a precision shot. A quick Gjallarhorn ends all that though.

Ah, my arc Efrideet with spray and play, firefly and perfect balance. Tomorrow you get to play.
Icebreaker one shots them, whatever the burn.
[EDIT] Now that I think about it, maybe it leaves them with a sliver of health when not on solar burn... will have to check! ^^

I think it's Resist! Resist! DEAD.
Orthogonal

Talk about overkill, but those bastards deserve it. Solar Shielded Arc shooters are absurdly OP. Like Newtons 3rd law, hit them with an equal and opposite OP weapon.
Ice Breaker would be taking up a slot over a much better weapon.
I have no need for it nor do I intend to use it after getting much better snipers.
The only good thing it has going for it is the ammo regen.
Twilight Gap

if you're hiding somewhere they can't hit you. at that point i'll wait for a fireteam.
