Thread is dead, so I'll take a crack at it.
Neither are "ideal". Stability & Range are what I look for then something like Hot Swap. Reload perks are kinda meh on sidearms, since I only use a sidearm as an emergency whip it out defense. HCR could be interesting, but anyone pushing you into sidearm range is using a shotgun and you barely need to aim those things.
Do you have the Ironwreath from the first Banner this year? People seem to regard that roll very highly.

what was the vendor roll? i have one with crowd control, cascade, and hand loaded, and one with zen moment hot swap and snapshot/quickdraw/reinforced barrel

I got the vendor model with Zen Moment, Hot Swap and QuickDraw. It's my personal ideal roll for a sidearm ... switch to it, hip fire it as fast as possible and most of the bullets will be on target after the first one hits.

Lol this is gold. Saltiest and most cynical player base of any game ever made:
I feel like there's a joke to be made with this kind of stuff going on for 1.5 years and that I'm still here:
Never bought the Ironwreath when it was being sold. Ended up keeping the few I got as drops though. But they're not good rolls. If I ever decide to use sidearms, I have a Havoc Pigeon with Rangefinder, Hot Swap, and QuickDraw in the vault. I should give it a go one of these days.
Edit: wait, is that Cena above? From what movie/show is that from?

Is... is that John Cena?!I feel like there's a joke to be made with this kind of stuff going on for 1.5 years and that I'm still here:
But yes, we're all masochists.
Well Phooey. I did well w/ both these this Iron Banner (when I wasn't playing on Vita). Got over 300 Sidearm kills throughout the course of the week.

It was added to the Vanguard heroic strikes list when the latest patch came out, or sometime around then.
err: Or maybe not, I'm not thinking straight. It may have been there this entire time?

Can run VoG. There were some people still looking for an Atheon kill or the NTTE as well.
CE for some players looking to get flawless raider? Shouldn't take more than half an hour.

Is it true Raze Lighter downs Crota shields with a single R2? I've got to try that lol

Yep. It's Cena. It's from Sisters, the new new Tina Fey/ Amy Poehler movie. It's the first movie I've seen where the studio made gifs as part of the advertising effort. Fey/Poehler + Gifs. Now they're speaking my language.
LT, the hero, does well with lots of different gun rolls, but posts hypothetical to the group to keep the thread moving in hard times.

Yup.
The results will surprise you!
But the guy on Reddit said servers are expensive and unrealistic! And that we should please understand!

git gud?
Fist of panic is very inconsistent, use Aftershocks if you're smashing a control point or heavy spawn, get more kills.

hmmm, I've always used Shockwave instead of Aftermath. I need to try this.
So you think there'll be some kind of content associated w/ them wanting us to login for the 'holiday' window?

I used shockwave in that video, but aftermath is more effective for control. The amount of post-mortem kills you get is ridiculous. Idiots desperate for heavy ammo are easy prey.
Unstoppable is great as well, prevents you from dying while trying to fist of panic, but I can't lose shoulder charge in exchange.
Free emblem.
Free motes.
Free coins.
Please keep on playing our content-less, laggy game.
/s
Everyone gets the gift they always wanted: 15 Motes of Light and 15 Strange Coins!
Oh and you'll get some emblem later in but it's not as good as getting free motes and coins!

Was definitely lag that screwed me over.
It was one of the laggiest matches I've played. So many red bars and teleporting bladedancers.
Yeah I've always built my Nova Bomb and Titan Smash around Control and the protection of flags. I may have to make the leap to using Shockwave myself.
And we all will.
But I don't think I've ever seen it show up on the vanguard playlist until today when it popped up twice in four strikes?
I'm actually down for a flawless CE run including Raiding Party sometime soon.
I'm pretty sure I've purchased enough emblems, shaders, masks, emotes, and books to pay for my very own dedicate server.

I read that thread and felt a little better that we aren't the only community where the level of discourse has tumbled. Although I don't regularly read Reddit so I wouldn't be a good judge anyway.
Literally the only thing to talk about is how there's nothing to talk about....

Weren't we suppose to get an exotic for collecting all the fragment? When will that timegated exotic drop?
Rollo Tomasi
Member
They never said that did they? We got ToM for having 45.

Nope. Just Malice at 45/50.
Better than the SRL Horn Kit I saw drop in one of my NF group this week...
Rollo Tomasi

If you're going to run VoG I am down. I need to finish the NTTE quest.
I've never heard talk of another Exotic, but I'd expect a shader and/or an emblem.

Beltrane was a shader I thought?

This happened so often in trials this weekend that I considered switching to a bubble (even with aftermath).

I just remembered Grave needs both these trophies as well, maybe Strike Party too. Might be all that's left for his Platinum, I'd have to double check.
But I could do a run I guess if there's a group. Seems so silly but whatever, lol.
