Well for PvE I prefer to have the Gjallarhorn over everything else for bosses... and Ice Breaker for missions.
And PvP it is good but I prefer others (and better) options like the TLW.
It is really a waste of slot... mine in on vault

what are timur's lash's main stats? a friend who had it said it was good but not great. was gonna put it above devil you know based on impact and range
Yes, no question. If you're using a hand cannon seriously you're accepting management of its recoil. Send It is an awesome mod.
You mean explosive rounds right? Firefly I don't think of as particularly great in PvP

Hopped into Atheon checkpoint on Normal to help a buddy out. Everyone got shards and I got Atheon's Epiloque.
My second!
There was rage, especially because one has been trying to get the Epilogue for a while.
RNG'd.

Mmmmm,mmmmm.

wish more guns would get added to http://www.destinygundamage.info, it's awesome. i want all the info without doing the work!
edit: there are a ton of potential mod rolls for it though. some make it great and others don't work in its favor at all

What's the word on favorite/best heavy machine guns? I just bought The Swarm from the Vanguard Quartermaster and it does BEAST damage, though it has a low fire rate. Eats through adds and Oracles.

thunderlord
jolder's hammer
corrective measure
the swarm
zombie apocalypse
can't go wrong with those
lol fair enough. well, in my own defense, it still BASICALLY means nothing to me until I get my hands on Timur's Lash to see how it feels. I just knew it was a relatively excellent cannon and wanted to see how closely it compared
writing down numbers is so boring tho :X
My first legendary Machine gun, really never leaves my side unless it's for Gjallarhorn or to leverage a specific burn (my version is arc). It's wonderful in PvP too, gotta make your shots count but that's not hard.

the one found from the field is better as the magazine goes up to 60 rounds! But yeah, i prefer a steady firing one that does a ton of damage per shot.
Corrective Measure [raid LMG] is beast mode with good fire rate and very high stability [perk]. Shreds through targets like they are paper, both in PvP and PvE.

Corrective Measure has almost no recoil for a SMG... I found that amazing when I first used it... most times with SMG you need to work with the recoil.
This is a very good list.
Deviant Gravity I've had success with, too....but the dropped version, not the store version.

This is your week for VoC or Fatebringer, I just know it.

Hmm, no range stat? That's a major factor when it comes to damage output. Especially for handcannons.

Good stuff, all, thanks! I haven't seen much talk about HMGs, so wasn't sure what the word was.
Nice! I have a feeling I'll hang onto this guy for a while.

I personally love corrective measure because it's incredibly stable with 100 round magazine, 300 round capacity and "find more ammo" perk. I just got zombie apocalypse yesterday and that's pretty impressive as well. Thunderlord is a beast and is a lot of fun to use but it takes up an exotic slot

Oh good, you're still playing. Didn't want to go away for the weekend and come back with no one to play with anymore... that is if the rumors that this game is dead are to be believed. Ha.
Anyway, you on tonight? If so, I'd be down to roll through all the bounties, etc.
And of course it's NF and heroic night tomorrow night.
Lastly, I need to hit the hard raid tonight just up through the Templar to see if I can get some raid armor and/or the Fatebringer to drop... or Praedyths Revenve... or VoC.
Honestly, the way it's implemented in game doesn't make the stat all that useful. Aside from Thorn (which you can pretty much snipe with), the stat doesn't have much practical use.
For example, The Last Word has a terrible range stat, but in game, it lands shots equal to other hand cannons aside from Thorn and Hawkmoon.
We have someone on our flawless team who just needs flawless. Could happen any day now, maybe tonight!
The only gun I wanted to use since beta was the last word, since then I have gotten
hawkmoon,

Man I cant wait to get my mythoclast buffed. It´s to bad Bungie has no clue on how to nerf a weapon.
yeah i might be on destiny briefly tonight, VoC can only drop from atheon though, but you won't need that pea shooter if you get the fatebringer

Sure thing. I don't get a chance to help people raid as much as I'd like, so I figure this is something that I can give back. Let me know what they think. I'll probably separate the bugs into two categories: general and flawless.
I think we should avoid bugs like "splash damage while the whole team is inside the relic shield" that are buggy because we're using them outside of the normal intended usage.
I would have traded the fatebringer that I got this week for my raid boots.
It is a really great idea. And a definite better use of our resources to affect change than just mentioning the glitches in this thread. I also agree about the splash damage in the relic thing. I don't know if the center platform relic strategy is intended or not exactly, but either way, I have found that totally counterable by just avoiding the left wall and remaining still as the relic holder, so it's a lower priority.
Mm. Timur's Lash certainly outclasses TDYK in range. It's very much in the Thorn family of HCs.

Yep, I agree about the splash damage. Some things like that, or the portals not porting if two people walk through at the same time, don't really bother me because they are predictable and simple to work around.
The insanely broken # of people teleported, enemies spawning in the wrong places inside the portal (like a hobgoblin spawning right next to the relic), a guy falling through the floor, etc.: Those are the serious problems. They very, very clearly didn't test the new patch for flawless runs because the glitches will reset to "normal buggy level" after a single wipe, which seems to let the update code load.
