Truth is a champ on that Minotaur in green portal Hard mode. 2 quick shots and dead. Its no Gjallarhorn but a great fill in.
I like Hezen too but not for the big boys that have Void shields.

Love Praedyth and Final Boss for the Templar area Hobgoblin sniping. Way faster on the acquisition and there is plenty of ammo on the ground. But, there is something to be said for the stopping power of IB.
Shadow Price, but try Vision of Confluence if you happen to own one. VoC is beast mode for PvE content.
I'm looking to do the normal Raid tonight starting at approximately 9PM EST with my brand new 29 Warlock Alt with loads of maxed weapons and lots of raid experience. If you want to join me at that time then please send me a PM with your PS4 PSN. I might be also looking to bang out the nightfall and the weekly 28 before the reset.

Yeap... I like IB too but for most of my use (Minotaurs/Praetorians) the Praedyth do a better job due the arc (?) damage bonus and break shield... I can kill a Praetorians in seconds without need to reload the Praedyth (the stability makes possible to make sequential shots).
Defense the Conflux at Gatekeeper part with Praedyth is super easy.
PS. It is better for Oracles than IB too due the damage bonus.

Anyhow, since RNG hates me, any thoughts on the vanguard unfriendly giant? Already have the swarm, and i'd like a heavy weapon to blow shit up

I tried using it for praetorians, but the low impact on it makes it pretty useless once you've taken their shields down.

Just for Oracles, yeah.

I've heard alot of AE complaints, saying the Oracles take the whole clip with it on Hard. But I don't remember if the guy that said that was a 29...
Can't say anything about the vendor version, since mine was a drop. It used to get a LOT of play in PvP a few months back, but has since dropped off the face of the earth in most matches I'm in. I see a lot of that Admonisher III now, though. It must be pretty good.

anyone up for 4 person raid later?

Considering that a whole clip for AE is what, 70 rounds...?
PrivateWHudson

Someone did the breakdown yesterday and it was something like: 77 round clip, 40 rounds for the first Oracle and 37 rounds plus Hunter throwing knife for the second Oracle. So two Oracles per reload.
Fatebringer, unfortunately, is terrible for Oracles.
I don't like it for anything other than nightfall with void burn. I don't think it's particularly effect for Oracles, at least not moreso than other weapons. I've always thought a fusion rifle was best for oracles.

as a lvl 30, it takes around 40% of the mag to kill them if memory serves. you do 33% less damage as a 29, so it takes almost the whole mag.
counting oracle bonus.
Huh, you want the challenge, don't you.

Yuup. Of course there might be some exaggeration when I was told but his point was clear lol
I dont have the weapon so I wouldn't know, first hand. I do know a maxed out VOC is a beast on Oracles. If you have to choose between the two, VOC all the way.

I agree VoC do a better job.
I guess the Fusion Rifle and Praedyth are yet better than VoC to Oracles.

whenever people show up i suppose. normal time (6pm EST) works too.
need at least one sunsinger.

Yes Fatebringer is a turd on Oracles. I shelve my 300 FB for VOC everytime on hard.
Sounds about right.

That should work for me.
Hard or Normal?

Mine has stability all the way to the top and reload speed boost and I assure you it's not average
Q: What primary weapon should i use for hard mode raid?
A: Vision of Confluence
Q: What's a good primary weapon for PVP?
A: Vision of Confluence
Q: What's a good weapon for PVE?
A: Vision of Confluence
Q: If there's 1 weapon i need from doing the raid which is it?
A: Vision of Confluence
Q: Why is the Vision of Confluence so good?
A: It's not... It's great. Why? because legendary primary, large magazine, high stability, auto fire (aka easy mode), and it does solar damage along with bonus damage to oracles.
Any more questions?

Depends... are you being a good guy this year?
Would you take a newcomer (actually to both the raid and PS4 - got it in the mail an hour ago)?
I'm a level 28 Warlock, once I get everything set up.

Actually I can't say shit since I have yet to run the raid, haha. But my RNG luck usually sucks, so I'm just preemptively putting it out there.
....Maybe I should finally do the damn raid.
