    Honestly I never really touched Merciless in the time between Year 1 of Destiny 2 and Season 15, so I never even realized they moved it from the heavy slot to the special slot. Honestly though, I think they should move it back to the heavy. Its perk is clearly meant to have the player focused on a single target so you can dump your whole mag in there, taking advantage of the ramping charge speed to skyrocket your dps, but with Special Weapon tier damage it just doesn't feel powerful enough to warrant its use. Set it back to a heavy weapon with proper damage numbers to compensate and I think you'll see people's opinion of the gun improve significantly.

    IMO Acrius has been underwhelming since swords swung into relevance. It struggles to compete with them, despite the fact that the Acrius has less reserves and a much higher risk to use. This is especially relevant because it is a raid exotic. These are currently going for a lot of spoils, and the Acrius isn't unique or powerful enough to deserve such a grind. I'd say it needs the radar perk replaced for something tarrabah-esque, which allows the weapon to be a burst dps option, in the same vein as the fourth horseman but as a heavy.

      Something i found out recently; Crimson with the Overload mod can stun the Champions in 1 trigger pull. It counts each bullet of the 3-round burst together as "sustained fire", so it's basically an instant, fool-proof stun for virtually nothing. I dont see many people on PC taking advantage of it, but Crimson on PC is for Rumble and otherwise just a controller-user gun.

      I agree I love Cerberus it is basically a shotgun that is using primary ammo. I do agree the catalyst is kinda meh. After all I only use it for some farther range shots due to it making the spread tighter so each round hits it's mark. For weaker enemies though you wouldn't see me using that firing mode on a boss or something like that. That is just plain dumb due to the slower firing speed you would get shredded. It is a very underrated gun for sure.

With luminas catalyst you have noble rounds super often too so it’s pretty much 100 percent uptime on the damage buff.

Making so you never really need to reload and you rift will last forever because the healing effect of the noble rounds procs the the effect of the boots. While it is fun to do, you will lack the DPS for most things. You are just an RPG healer.

    Eriana's Vow is SO bae. I adore it and always have it on me. I feel like the insane length of the catalyst is a big turnoff for players, but this gun is amazing with it. I dare say that putting in the time on that catalyst is well worth it.

      I just finished my symetry catalyst when I got eriana's vow... Two strikes later I get the catalyst... Now I basically gotta do same thing again DX can't say it's a turn off tho. Because for sym it was well worth the wait... Anyone who does lots of playlists will sail through these...

      @@damonspang9508 the nice thing about symmetry is that NFs count towards its progress while for Erianna’s they don’t. I bought the vow and symmetry a couple months back in season 13 and I’m almost done. Grinding GMs the latter part of season 14 bumped my progress close to that of the vow but either way I’m not tripping. At first I told myself that if I do 10 strikes a day I could get it in 40 days but the grind would’ve been exhausting so I didn’t do that.

    Jade Rabbit was actually really good… for the 1 mission I used it for
    Since the seasonal mod was to use a scout rifle to stun barrier champions, it really came in clutch when doing that mission sent to you by Clovis Bray post-beyond light campaign (the one where you traverse freezing platforms and you can killoberloads instead of getting the shelter of the storm buff)
    Malfeasance looks fun but it’s really a Gambit weapon
    Haven’t used my coldheart yet
    Merciless… I just got the catalyst today. It runs more on its intrinsic trait more than the catalyst. It’s cool but very niche (to be used on only bosses) because that’s the only place it’s useful enough to use the exotic trait

    Malfeasance is fantastic. It shreds through small ads. With the perk it does good damage on majors/ultras/bosses for a primary. With the 5 hit perk, you can kill a guardian at almost any range. It’s a very underrated exotic.

    • @ForeverLaxx
      @ForeverLaxx 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It suffers from "it sucks when solo syndrome" compared to what you could be using. The point of the gun is to run multiple since everyone uses the same hit counter (as it's counted on the target, not the gun itself). With a fireteam slugging away at tough targets, it works much better. But, since no one else is using it, you'll be alone with it and that's the worst time to use it.
      Sort of like Rat King, in a way, though at least Rat King has competitive TTK and good solo utility in more difficult content.

    • @ShunTsukiko

      @@ForeverLaxx I use it solo all the time and it performs just fine. Especially on Taken and Fallen but Malfeasance isn't for everyone especially in crucible.

    • @ForeverLaxx
      @ForeverLaxx 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ShunTsukiko Compared to the exotic energy or power weapons you could be using in PvE, Malfeasance is a joke. Who cares how well you do against an average PvP lobby with a gun that has no advantage outside of maybe getting a cross-map 5 hit kill which is going to be rare, at best? Your best use of the gun in PvP is trying to take out a roaming super, but unless you have lots of space and no other option, that won't work anyway.
      Bring that gun into Gambit, the mode you have to play to even get the weapon, and when it's time to DPS the boss, the one thing Malfeasance can do better than other primary not named Dead Man's Tale with Vorpal, you're still getting completely dominated on the damage chart by your team who are using energy/power/supers. To keep up, you can't use Malfeasance, and when you can't use it in the one place it's meant to shine, what's the point?
      Wiping ads isn't hard either and requires no exotic to do, and boss DPS without energy/power/super contribution is bad. Most, if not all, Exotic primaries generally have this problem in PvE and they need certain niches/styles to be valuable in PvP, or at least have competitive TTK with some sort of upside. Malfeasance really has nothing going for it when alone that you couldn't get better results from elsewhere with a similar Primary and free up your Exotic slot.
      Don't get me wrong. I like the gun, but it needs help pretty badly.

    • @ShunTsukiko
      @ShunTsukiko 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ForeverLaxx I said it did just fine for me. If you read carefully you realize I used "I" my preference. Could I use Hawkmoon yes, could I use Ace? Yes. Could I use any other exotic yea and should I? I do. But I'm not gonna count any exotic out because it doesn't clap 100% in everything by stat and perk when I could use it to practice skill. I wasn't saying it didn't need help. No need to write an essay on things I already know. It has its faults and like every exotic it could do better, but just remember when it first dropped everyone was complaining it needed nerfing like every single weapon and when it does you complain it needs a buff.
      Yea there are weapons that have limited viability Malfeasance one, but at least it's balanced or at the moment fairly close. In my opinion some exotics need limited viability otherwise we'll have another WoW, Anarchy and Simulant issue. Where it claps in everything and some idiot take it into pvp and cause it to get nerfed.

      I put zero stock in "it works for me" claims. Anything can "work" in the right lobby. There's no denying it doesn't really stand out and easily falls behind standard options, though. The game does not work in a manner that Malfeasance can leverage, which was my point.

  • @superstandard
    @superstandard 3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    Ez solution for Leviathan is that when you stun a champion, the bow gets returned to the "mag". As for other buffs I think a merciless type perk where for example each crit increases fire rate and a slight damage boost would be nice. I use the bow all of the time to just remove majors and champions quickly. Usually it takes 1-2 shots and when you get 5 bows per ammo brick and 15 in reserve no matter what mods you use, I think its pretty nice
