Spare Change's weird recoil pattern is largely mitigated by the increased stability of Braced Frame in the middle column.

It doesn't stop the spread from being up and to the left, but it does stabilize the gun enough that the grouping of shots is so tight that one being slightly left of the others doesn't often result in a missed critical shot. That opens up the third perk column for something other than Counterbalance.

I'm using Hidden Hand and like this build a lot so far:

Third Eye, Braced, Hidden.

It doesn't make up for my lost Hopscotch with the same rolls, but if you have a spare Spare Change, it's preeeetty darn close.

Spare has a slightly better AA, ads, and handling value than Messenger IIRC, so I didn't mind investing some motes into it.

Interesting. I have one with third eye, braced, and counterbalance. Counterbalance is probably overkill... But I'm not reforging anything at this point. I'll have to try it out.
 
so my Hunter went to pick up all Abandonned Quests, lol. Now he is overwhelmed by blips on the orbital map.

Nice to see Stranger's missions will give you a chance to get another Stranger's Rifle again.... i think

Hahaha it was one of those times where I felt "in the zone" so much so that I forgot to get ammo and never even noticed it. I love this game.

Epic video. Had you not run out of ammo it looked like you might have been able to get a 25+ streak going. I think you were around 20 when you finally ran out. That was a fun watch.

Hey does anyone here use an a proper headset instead of that pos standard ps4 mic?

Wondering if I could just plug my headsets mic jack into the ps4 controller and have that work? And also if there's an adapter or something that would allow me to get both mic and audio through my headset via the ps4 controller?

I haven't touched a Scout Rifle since 2.0 went live, are they still bad?
They still don't own their range. Hand Cannons can't steal a Scout's lunch anymore but Pulse Rifles have enough range to make Scouts useless.

In the vast majority of encounters, your Measenger will have enough range to outgun a Scout.

I don't think they're bad at all. VoC in particular is stiil surprisingly spry in the Crucible and I've seen more MIDA use lately. I just don't like their optimal engagement distance personally

Outside ideal pulse range, scouts absolutely do own. I think what you mean to imply by "in the vast majority of encounters" is that most maps aren't going to have you engaging at this range very often, which is totally true.

Why was I on live from Playstation and someone was live streaming Trials? I thought it was gone for the next few weeks.

Edit:Nm it was a archived stream. Guess it's new in the FW Update.

So is it still possible to leave Queens wrath since the bounties are gone? I'm about 300 rep short of lvl. 3 and those shaders missing from the kiosk bothers me.
