Titan gets this. https://www.bungie.net/en/Armory/Detail?type=item&item=2748609458&itemname=Fabian%20Strategy Haven't really heard many impressions here about it.

If the Frontlines perk actually gave a buff more than 1% it would be a beast of a gun. Right now it's just okay.

got a friend who say it sucks worse than hardlight

 

[OkayRene]

I don't admire the task of having to come up with new weapon perks every release/year. It starting to feel like they're already running out of ideas.

 

[Truelize]

I actually enjoy their conversations lol

I like them. But they (mostly Jeff) spend a lot of time explaining how the game works and they obviously do not know enough to be sharing such a strong opinion.

 

[Slammin_Hammon]

Damn, glad I haven bothered with getting my titans gunsmith rank up since both of their exclusive weapons suck compared to the warlock and hunter's.

 

[Raybunny]

Fabian is amazing for pvp. Try it out.

 

[robertlebrone]

The problem is that its signature perk (Front Lines) is almost unnoticeable. It's not worth an exotic slot because of that. Other than that, it's a pretty solid gun though.

Idk, I can definitely notice the fire rate increase and decreased recoil when front lines is active. I tear it up when I use mine. Plus don't sleep on crowd control, I was getting double kills like crazy with Fabian.

 

[PuMa]

I love Giant Bomb. I really do.

But I think they need to stop talking about Destiny.
I feel so bad for anyone that is on the fence with Destiny and is a Giant Bomb listener.
They talk with a lot of confidence but they know less about this game than my 9 year old son.

Listening to them talk about Destiny makes me question every other opinion they have shared about every other game they have ever talked about.

I can't stand any of their conversations, but I'm obvi in the minority there.

 

[LTWood12]

Fabian Strategy is a great auto rifle in the current meta, but the fact that it's exotic renders it way less useful compared to something like the Zhalo. But I love the feel of it. If it were legendary I'd rock it all the time.

 

[LordofPwn]

have a tllaloc not a huge fan of it, will use it in trials though with my sunbro

 

[Noray]

All of the class-specific exotics feel like they should just be legendaries with the possible exception of Ace of Spades for being the only handcannon that's not hot garbage in PvE right now (haven't gotten an Imago Loop, in fairness)

 

[Ocho]

So when do I need to redeem my gunsmith orders? I tried yesterday but it wouldn't let me order more (as if I had already ordered for this week).

 

[Slammin_Hammon]

Do you like the Beastcast? They tend to actually have better conversations about topics. I enjoy the bombcast but it definitely isn't as informed as the Beastcast on many topics.

 

[recks]

Well, if you're using Touch of Malice on Oryx and you want to snipe the ogres, I guess it's useful there. Or if you just doing PvE with another primary exotic.

I don't know if Triple Tap is of any help killing the Ogres tbh, I think it takes 4(?) precision shots from a high impact sniper to kill one, so I don't think Triple Tap is that useful there.

 

[LordofPwn]

oryx with the predictive grammar correction

 

[CouchMaster]

Triple Tap is useless in pretty much any gun imo. Exactly why I don't get the hype over this gun, has okay perks and average stats but is treated as the 'go to gun'.

Tripple Tap makes my Hung Jury fire more bullets than Suros auto rifle before reload.

They have the best convos about Destiny. I relisten to them all the time.

Haven't heard of that one.

 

[VE3TRO]

So no point getting that Titan exotic when I have Zhalo and Monte Carlo.

 

[LiK]

I'll be home around 530 EST and I'm game for the SS strike.

Cool, don't be late!

 

[PuMa]

Collection purposes of course. It's super easy to get anyways.

 

[Tecnniqe]

Might as well get it. But atm there are much better AR's to use as Exotic.

Go watch Mr Fruits TEAAAAAR with this gun. Utterly fantastic.

https://youtu.be/t-faUwwE2-0

 

[Slammin_Hammon]

Haven't heard of that one.

It's Vinny, Alex Navarro, Jeff Bakalar, and Austin Walker. It's pretty good and more focused than the bombcast.

 

[LiK]

I'm not hard up on getting the Titan exotic but I'll do Gunsmith quests just for fun.

 

[flkraven]

Classic Oryx

 

[GutZ31]

We've stepped into a war with the....
Spelling bee.

Really?

I liked how they didn't shy away from talking the very real issues the game has. They did an awesome job in year one of basically standing up for the gamers. But their TTK conversations can be bad.
One guy on the team started playing destiny again and is really enjoying it. Jeff shared his rather negative opinions about the Kings Fall raid during this weeks podcast.
This other guy sounded much less excited now because what's the point in progressing forward if the end game content is so poor?

Are you talking about Fabian Strategy? I've used it a bit. Am I missing something, or does that gun suck ass?

May as well add a pick since I'm top of the page:

 

[ReignofSparrows]

Tripple Tap makes my Hung Jury fire more bullets than Suros auto rifle before reload.

The Hung Jury also fires like fifteen times the bullets as the Ghorn before reload. Best gun ever.

 

[PuMa]

Right there with ya.

I'm still cringing. Hold me.

Good honest gripes that I can relate to. Jeff has warmed up to it with TTK. I enjoy the talks a lot. They make it entertaining.

Heard nothing but bad things about it. I am a bit salty that outta all the gun types they give us AR.

How the fuck is King's Fall "poor".

Fucking Giant Bomb/Opinions.

 

[darthbob]

Fabian Strategy is just so... bad.

In comparison to AoS and Tlaloc it's literally an insult to Titans.

It was either gonna be an AR or a PR. Would've preferred a PR that is low ROF high impact with similar perks to FS.

I've heard it's broken actually. It's supposed to fire quicker when enemies get closer I believe, but the fire rate never changes.

 

[PuMa]

Exactly

 

[Strangelove77]

I got the "Truth" rocket launcher and someone else in my team got "Telesto" from the third chest in the raid. I know people said you could get exotics from that chest, but I just wasn't expecting it.

 

[LTWood12]

Cmon...it's not even that bad. I really like Mr Fruit but whatever! Opinions, and I respect him.

TL;DW: He goes on a crazy killstreak with the gun and it looks fantastic.

I suck in pvp tho

Well, that blows. Should've given us a Zhalo!

Have you listened to his comments this week now that he has played the Kings Fall raid?
Warmed up was last week. This week he is Debbie Downer.

Debbie says:
* Now I have this best guns but there is nothing to do with them. No point in playing more *

 

[gdt]

Ok I'm missing 1 calcified fragment in the T2 CoO. But getting stolen runes is a pain then I gotta hope the right fight comes up? I don't even know which fight it is.
