ive liked it for awhile, pretty invaluable when fighting trash mobs (the abyss,waking the hive ect..), now its so much better. it was pretty good in crucible before, even though I preferred the strangers rifle.

its going to be a wrecking ball in mayhem. especially with O. Mind on a Voidwalker. but its great for any class.

my guess for the best classes for mayhem

Voidwalker (please bunch up for me, thanks)
Gunslinger (fantastic for taking out enemies from range, shutting down supers)
Bladedancer (think its going to be hard getting close)
Sunsinger
Striker (with death from above, woo hoo)
Defender (I heard they made it better, but Ihave yet to see results)

Defenders can be a surprise hit with their Supressing grenades. Shutting down supers left and right. Weapons of Light + a good sniper = one body shot kills for days.

This mode will be dominated by Golden Guns. Our nerfed stats make a 100% DIS build impossible so rampant Sunsingers won't be a big a threat as they would have been. Bladedancers: prepare to be Fist of Panicked and Nova Bombed and Golden Gunned into oblivion.

Updated No Land Beyond is awesome. Anyone who doesn't have it should get it from Xur

It's still really satisfying to kill with, but is definitely easier now. The Master still doesn't 1-hit body kill in PVP, but it probably shouldn't. Gun feels really good now. NLB + Vestian Dynasty is probably my favorite PVP combo now. I did enjoy using NLB before, so not sure if the update will turn anyone who totally hated the weapon, but worth checking out the new version for sure.

I get what you mean about the new exotic guns. Lots of them look like generic 20th Century weapons with raid like legendary perks.

I find that the Foundry weapons to be more interesting than the most of the new Exotic weapons.

why not both?

tried timepeice last night. after playing with bad juju. I thought it was broken for a second because I held the trigger down and it didnt continue fireing. oops, not auto
Click to expand...

I've tried the timepiece, but didn't feel as good as the juju. Just personal preference. I know it's good, but just not as fun. Same reason I seldom used Thorn - gun wasn't fun for me.

yeah I still preferred bad juju over timepiece. I haven't tried the strangers rifle yet. I really liked the messenger but haven't tried it out yet post patch

now imagine us having the same conversation about pulse rifles this time last year. lol

what are the rewards for the weekly heroic now? didnt they say you were guaranteed a legendary engram?

I have also gotten 3 legendary engrams on patrol over the last couple of days. pretty sure they upped the drop rate on those

What would be the best way to get some legendary gear for my titan at the moment?

I know that can get an arm from variks, chest USSR already done, but where could I get leg armour?

Lol I wish we weren't having this conversation; handcannons are the best weapon class in the game, but unfortunately were nerfed.

Supposedly, the green armor coming on Tuesday will be better than any legendary armor you can get right now. If you have enough faction rep and marks you could buy some from a vendor.

No more ammo. You only get like 12 shots lol. That's a lot for a sniper rifle to get every life in PVP though. I think the reload animations are faster but not sure. But the sights feel so much better than before, it's really great for quick scoping headshots
