I guess when Gaul was studying the light and guardians, he must of noticed the power that was felwinter's lie and decided to make his own version of it.
Patrick Casey agree with both man, they shouldve made it different than others, i never thought about it that way but yea that huge body for regukar rounds and reloads ._.
Few things you didn't mention or missed. 1. each hit is guaranteed 50 damage in the crucible on a body shot, even to supers. The extra "40" that pops up separate to the larger number (which is the combined total of the pellets) is the Shock Blast perk which does extra shock damage. (This is actually AoE damage too, so it's even easier to kill enemies packed together) 2. this weapon has a tendency to completely miss all pellets regardless of distance if you try to aim down sights while airborne. 3. Due to the handling speed and the fact that it has no damage drop off at all actually makes this the one gun in the game that is better to hip-fire at all times. (aiming down sight simply lowers you're mobility and harms the aim assist) 4. Because of the AoE nature of Shock Blast perk, it gets more and more damage the larger the group of enemies fired into.
Shotguns can shoot further than 4 meters in real life too... so I don't see why that is a problem. Plus it's a power weapon, it could have a bit more range: given how every boss (except maybe one :D ) has aoe stomp in this game.
destinytracker.com/destiny/lfg Here you go, my dude. Just respond to groups or make your own LFG. plenty of other solo players out there feeling your struggles.
I recommend having helpful power weapon mods on your armor when going for this weapon, the increase in reload speed, and handling should make it a bit more viable to use.
I hope this ends up with a very long quest tree that in the end gives it a 5 shot clip and gives it a lot more ammo. After all that work it should be the best close range weapon in the game and it being an exotic I would be ok with that.
But it's so unfair that you need to do the hardest activity in the game to get the best gun, they should give it to me because I'm an entitled twat who needs to be catered too
Skyler Davidson well they already have the hardcore in their pocket so... Bungie : so people want to have a very hard end game. Activision : no, *we've got to have MONEY* .
The Architect As long as it doesn't turn into the Vex Mythoclast (which I doubt will happen twice), I wouldn't mind seeing that at all. The point of a shotgun is to be a delete button, after all.
I really hope the Last Upgrade gives it 3 shots in the mag, 12 or 10 in total and adds another extra perk for PVE. Or they just make it 320 so it's the highest Level gun
Since I don't have enough time at home to do the raid except if I'm doing nothing on the weekend and I did the dogs and bath part and I was so happy to avyually do it because I'm terrible at raids even thought I'm in a clan that's full
To be honest it has more ammo per kill them most other shotguns, for example hawthorns has 8 in the mag but you need to use basically all 8 to kill a major where as with this you need only 2. So this can net you more kills in PvE then most other shotguns. In PvP its deadly.
I'm salty because Bungie fixed the seals glitch a week after my team had farmed 100 seals. They didn't even acknowledge it until the patch was right around the corner
You should have waited till the last part. In the app when you inspect the weapon you can see it with more ammo and higher capacity. That being 4 in the mag etc.
KlabusterBaeren I caMe here again for that exact reason n to call the idiot out that didn't listen When ppl said that( the gun isn't fully upgraded) the last thing u unlock is the ornament like ppl said the whole time Game _newt
I hope the prestige upgrade makes the gun better. It definitely feels very lackluster compared to Outbreak Prime. But they might not want guns like that in the game anyways. But why not if such a small percentage completes the raid, much less goes through some quest-chain beating the raid a bunch to get a hopefully raid-designed gun. Pretty run-on sentence there but hopefully my point is understood.
There's a reason I'm not a huge fan of this review. No one knows if the current gun we're using is the final version of the weapon. Completing the prestige raid could give the weapon more ammo, etc. Since the quest DOES continue. No mention of this in the review is what I don't think is right.
It's probably for its ornament, if I had to guess. The ornament itself is likely to be something that makes it look like the Raid weapons, if I had to guess.
this gun is stupid fun in pvp, I just wait for people to pop supper's then wreck them with this gun. I get a similar feeling to using mythoclast in d1 (although I got the gun after it was nerfed). I miss those days of getting a hard to get item and feeling like Im running around with Excalibur.

In-depth review already? We don't know if this is the final version. There's still the prestige raid step to do. We can't be sure if its going to get more perks or if its just for the ornament just yet...

Zelda Things bruh j have 305 merciless and i can't 1 phase But with the raid rocket lancher i can kill 2 dogs in 1 phase with 36x power 😊 Edit and it is a legndary so it gives me the choice of using another exotic on power wepone or kintec
I dunno if you are gonna read or if you already done it but i want to know your opinion on the power level in general on pve/pvp activities also that the prestige raid is not gonna give you more light level :DD

Felwinter's *Revenge*
EpicGamerzFail lol
EpicGamerzFail *rimshot*
EpicGamerzFail lmao
Gual watching us in d1 “shit that dudes mappin peps out here...i need it”
I couldn't help but think of Datto and the "nut cannon" whenever you talked about it in PVP.
Don't get me wrong, I love the aesthetics of the gun, but for a giganto shotgun of death I would want a batter reload animation
if it reloaded a magazine that would be a bit more fitting imo. instead of the normal sized shotgun rounds into the massive hulky body of this gun.
Patrick Casey agree with both man, they shouldve made it different than others, i never thought about it that way but yea that huge body for regukar rounds and reloads ._.
It would be hilariously awesome if you reloaded two magazines into the bottom to take up the long reload time.
Maybe like a giant battery?
Patrick Casey yeah, or a giant break action shotgun where you would load 2 giant battery rounds the size of soup cans into the gun.
'You're gonna be having a lot of 1v1 Engagements if your pushing properly... HAHAHA good one, Holtz.
Ya like jazz ikr...teamshot fover
How in the fuck do you use the wrong form of "you're" right after you used it correctly?
Burke Sellers to upset folks like you? I care but not it enough to point it out.
Google this: "rhetorical question"
Hell yeah, Brexxit.
"It's nearly impossible to miss!"
He says as footage of him missing plays
General525 There's the "nearly"
It was a perfectly timed statement
Damn I didn't know a shotgun could be so thicc 😩😩😩
Few things you didn't mention or missed.
1. each hit is guaranteed 50 damage in the crucible on a body shot, even to supers. The extra "40" that pops up separate to the larger number (which is the combined total of the pellets) is the Shock Blast perk which does extra shock damage. (This is actually AoE damage too, so it's even easier to kill enemies packed together)
2. this weapon has a tendency to completely miss all pellets regardless of distance if you try to aim down sights while airborne.

4. Because of the AoE nature of Shock Blast perk, it gets more and more damage the larger the group of enemies fired into.
Great idea. Put the one radar distance boosting perk in the game on a S H O T G U N
Thot Vanquisher why not
Shotguns can shoot further than 4 meters in real life too... so I don't see why that is a problem. Plus it's a power weapon, it could have a bit more range: given how every boss (except maybe one :D ) has aoe stomp in this game.
SuperArppis This isn't real life, but I agree that Acrius has massive effective range
Thot Vanquisher what about keen scout, I thought that gave extra radar distance
Not more range, just more wedges & interactives are highlighted. You can get a better sense of where enemies are, but it's still the same range.
I have the quest I just need to do the raid which sucks since I’m a solo player
Anubis The hunter Guided Games dude
For guided games no one plays it for me to get help
Anubis The hunter ikr
destinytracker.com/destiny/lfg
Here you go, my dude. Just respond to groups or make your own LFG. plenty of other solo players out there feeling your struggles.
Anubis The hunter you also have to do the arms dealer strike at 300 power :/
This gun never leaves my side in PvP, this and transverse steps. I love this gun it feels just so good.
I sure do love the Nut Cannon
I recommend having helpful power weapon mods on your armor when going for this weapon, the increase in reload speed, and handling should make it a bit more viable to use.
I love this shotgun in PvP. I have been using it a lot. I killed 3 enemies with one shot on one of the maps that was crazy.
*Why use this when you can use the Coil and Merciless.. ✅🙂*
I'm gonna laugh if the final step of the quest only gives you the ornament.....then I will proceed to try and get said ornament lol
Psychic...
Geeky karma but the ornament looks sick tho
I honestly miss the rng raid exotics. The hype of maybe getting a vex was always so awesome.
I hope this ends up with a very long quest tree that in the end gives it a 5 shot clip and gives it a lot more ammo. After all that work it should be the best close range weapon in the game and it being an exotic I would be ok with that.
But it's so unfair that you need to do the hardest activity in the game to get the best gun, they should give it to me because I'm an entitled twat who needs to be catered too
Hawk Stirke completely taking a dump on the hardcore fans that made Destiny popular and catering to the casuals. #newbungie
Hawk Stirke lmfao I'm ded
Skyler Davidson well they already have the hardcore in their pocket so...
Bungie : so people want to have a very hard end game.
Activision : no, *we've got to have MONEY* .
The Architect As long as it doesn't turn into the Vex Mythoclast (which I doubt will happen twice), I wouldn't mind seeing that at all. The point of a shotgun is to be a delete button, after all.
God I wish he could do an updated review now that there is a double updated catalyst for this gun.
Reminder that this here Nut Cannon can clutch Countdown games.
Don't believe me? Go watch Datto. He did it.
Imposter
Epsilon he shows his clutch nut during the video
Epsilon 4:30 for reference
Nice review. This might be the first raid exotic I really try for since vex was good.
Necrochasm was extremely good when it returned in AoT, but by then everyone had forgotten about it.
you always have the best weapon reviews
The Cabal shotgun Acrius is made after is actually called a Cabal Slug Shotgun
I really hope the Last Upgrade gives it 3 shots in the mag, 12 or 10 in total and adds another extra perk for PVE. Or they just make it 320 so it's the highest Level gun
lovin the potential allusion to "The Long March" by Mao Tse-Tsung
Hands down the best pvp power weapon in the game. Easily 4 kills per pickup, possibly even more.
Thing should get a buff that puts any boss fired upon on on a 5 second stagger
3:39 "The spread is almost impossible to miss" *Misses in clip playing while saying this* haha
It should definitely have like 10 bullets in my opinion, and 2 or 3 on pick up. And I love it in PvP. I turned a game around with it.
I can't recommend this gun for anything in pve but pvp though... this thing is a monster
this with stompies hunter legs and nightstalker increased sprint speed = bae
Awesome man. Had this bad boy upgraded for a while. Honestly in pvp it can map ppl
Since I don't have enough time at home to do the raid except if I'm doing nothing on the weekend and I did the dogs and bath part and I was so happy to avyually do it because I'm terrible at raids even thought I'm in a clan that's full
Bang bang. I shot them down. Bang bang. They hit the ground. Ban bang. My acrius shot them down.
Helghastslayah1 nice biggie reference
SSTWELVE what biggie reference? Bang bang is a very old song by nancy sinatra
Helghastslayah1 bang bang, i just cringed
So this is the exotic for that quest line
Too bad I don’t have time for the raid.
To be honest it has more ammo per kill them most other shotguns, for example hawthorns has 8 in the mag but you need to use basically all 8 to kill a major where as with this you need only 2. So this can net you more kills in PvE then most other shotguns. In PvP its deadly.
Ik the Acrius would be amazing for trials. Judging from all the videos from seeing how awesome and fun the shotgun is looks pretty dope
I'm salty because Bungie fixed the seals glitch a week after my team had farmed 100 seals. They didn't even acknowledge it until the patch was right around the corner
You should have waited till the last part. In the app when you inspect the weapon you can see it with more ammo and higher capacity. That being 4 in the mag etc.
KlabusterBaeren I caMe here again for that exact reason n to call the idiot out that didn't listen When ppl said that( the gun isn't fully upgraded) the last thing u unlock is the ornament like ppl said the whole time Game _newt
Lol that subtle @datto clip at 4:30
Use rally barricade for dogs and it's a beast
I hope the prestige upgrade makes the gun better.
It definitely feels very lackluster compared to Outbreak Prime. But they might not want guns like that in the game anyways.
But why not if such a small percentage completes the raid, much less goes through some quest-chain beating the raid a bunch to get a hopefully raid-designed gun.
Pretty run-on sentence there but hopefully my point is understood.
Gotta love the "NUT" cannon.
"It's almost impossible to miss."
*misses shot*
😂
I wonder why our cabal shotgun which was modified to us is alot stronger than the actual cabal shotguns
You forgot to mention the random double kills from the over penetration in crucible
There's a reason I'm not a huge fan of this review. No one knows if the current gun we're using is the final version of the weapon. Completing the prestige raid could give the weapon more ammo, etc. Since the quest DOES continue. No mention of this in the review is what I don't think is right.
It's probably for its ornament, if I had to guess. The ornament itself is likely to be something that makes it look like the Raid weapons, if I had to guess.
well it looks like this review is still correct, no more gun upgrades.
this gun is stupid fun in pvp, I just wait for people to pop supper's then wreck them with this gun. I get a similar feeling to using mythoclast in d1 (although I got the gun after it was nerfed). I miss those days of getting a hard to get item and feeling like Im running around with Excalibur.
Its still gonna get better. We still gotta fully upgrade it so we can't be certain if it's good or bad

triigga s ummmmm. Good for you I guess? I got rid of destiny so you and that shit game are irrelevant to me right now. :)
304th... wait....
I would love to get mine, but that strike killing me.
I love his passive aggressive voice
So isn’t there a “level three” legend of acrius that comes out with the prestige raid?
"But it does ok in the bass fight" haha all goods mate
I miss my Lord of Wolves. I'm hoping the Legend of Acrius can make me happy again.
But you got remember Patrick that we still got a few final upgrades and bungee might buff in the near future
Timetaco KlabusterBaeren I caMe here again for that exact reason n to call the idiot out that didn't listen When ppl said that( the gun isn't fully upgraded) the last thing u unlock is the ornament like ppl said the whole time
Truth be told we don’t know if these are the end all stats as the quest requires a prestige raid completion.

The only Destiny youtuber I've seen that doesn't mess around and is not annoying.
Liked and subscribed, keep up the good videos!
wonder what the prestige raid has in store for this gun
were not at the full gun now tho. the last step might give us 12 shots.
This gun is great in pve!.... If you do the wardcliff glitch
3:39 "It's almost impossible to miss" *misses*
To be fair we still don’t know if the gun gets upgraded once we beat pretige calus for the quest or if we just get the ornament .
Foxintoxx KlabusterBaeren I caMe here again for that exact reason n to call the idiot out that didn't listen When ppl said that( the gun isn't fully upgraded) the last thing u unlock is the ornament like ppl said the whole time
"we don't know if the gun gets upgraded once we beat pretige calus for the quest or if we just get the ornament ."
It will maybe gey better with the prestige raid, like could continue the quest for it.
ll Ginge KlabusterBaeren I caMe here again for that exact reason n to call the idiot out that didn't listen When ppl said that( the gun isn't fully upgraded) the last thing u unlock is the ornament like ppl said the whole time
This, is my BOOMSTICK!
Is this the raid exotic?
Like Outbreak Prime, ToM etc.
Huh reminds me of the Red Death not sure why.
You deserve all the likes! Great review! :)
So its essentially a slightly gimped Arca Plasmor.
Something to note is this weapon will probably get an upgrade after completing the prestige raid quest step so this review was a little premature.
The Number1Candyman ....
idiot
Keep in mind that the gun is not in its final form yet. Gotta run the prestige raid for that final upgrade.
wiiownsps3and360 it is the prestige only gives you the ornament
there is no final upgrade, only the exotic ornament for completing prestige raid, that is it.
So yea...this steaming pile of shit is all we get, kinda lame considering the amount of effort needed to get it, what a let down.
wiiownsps3and360 KlabusterBaeren I caMe here again for that exact reason n to call the idiot out that didn't listen When ppl said that( the gun isn't fully upgraded) the last thing u unlock is the ornament like ppl said the whole time
Of you dismantle it how do you get it back?
Aww lucky I can't even,get past the strike
i feel like it might be worth on pools
I like how the hand clips through the gun everytime you reload.
Thats clutch was datto snd no credit for him?
2 bullet mag ? MINE ONLY HAS ONE BULLET
In-depth review already? We don't know if this is the final version. There's still the prestige raid step to do. We can't be sure if its going to get more perks or if its just for the ornament just yet...

you should mentioned that the gun you are using is upgraded and not finished
KlabusterBaeren I caMe here again for that exact reason n to call the idiot out that didn't listen When ppl said that( the gun isn't fully upgraded) the last thing u unlock is the ornament like ppl said the whole time
The gun is fine on dogs!
Majority yea, unless you don't want your team to yell at you for not using merciless.
Zelda Things maybe if your team can’t 1 phase...
Majority my team cant one phase even with merciless. lol
Zelda Things lol!
Zelda Things bruh j have 305 merciless and i can't 1 phase
But with the raid rocket lancher i can kill 2 dogs in 1 phase with 36x power 😊
Edit and it is a legndary so it gives me the choice of using another exotic on power wepone or kintec
3:40 "It's almost impossible to miss" literally a split second later misses
I'll always recognize Datto hitting that hot clutch with the *NUT* Cannon
I have no one to do the strike with whos over 300 and knows what to do rip
I dunno if you are gonna read or if you already done it but i want to know your opinion on the power level in general on pve/pvp activities also that the prestige raid is not gonna give you more light level :DD
KRANOZ it gives you onlly 1 powerful legndary engram when opening a door every week and thats all
prestige mode is not gonna give you more than 305 which makes it pointless to do
Hey holtzman, do you know any good item managers, sorta like the chrome extensions in D1.
destiny item manager is just a website now. use that.
is this review based on the non upgraded version?
"Its almost impossible to miss" misses right when you say that lol
this thing literally deletes people from existence in crucible
“The bass fight”
Do you review exotic armors too? If not are there any channels that do.
The- Purified -1 check out Cool Guy
ye after this weekend ill get started on the legendary weapon/exotic armor video grind.
Legend of Acrius vs Tractor Cannon
Really disappointing that it isn't useful in the Raid. Getting flashbacks of Necrochasm.
If Bungie insist on a 2 round mag, they could at least make the ammo capacity an even number. It's just an OCD nightmare.
Do you do exotic armors too?
OH FUCK PATRICK, SEND ME MEMES!!!!
makes sense having terrible handling, you're using a heavy hitting cabal gun
Isn't there another upgrade for it still? Won't it get better after the prestige releases?
Jared Caviglia KlabusterBaeren I caMe here again for that exact reason n to call the idiot out that didn't listen When ppl said that( the gun isn't fully upgraded) the last thing u unlock is the ornament like ppl said the whole time
I've never seen this weapon before. Is it ps4 only or am I blind?
yer as blind as cyclops with a eyepatch
Kryvex You're not blind. It's just that not a lot of people have this weapon. And if they do, they barely use it.
It's on Xbox, I have it.
You're blind as fuck my dude
🤣🤣🤣 fuck you guys
Fun fact, the Legend of Acrius is based on the Legend of Icarus
