      Hes got a lot of weird decisions that i wholly disagree with. Namely bad juju being bad because "we get supers back fast already". Yeah...so...? Running it with an armor exotic that gives you super regen makes it so disgustingly good its not even funny. It also is pretty good at ad clear. Like same with hard light. Piercing bullets is super good with how much enemy spam there is in seasonal events. Even crimson can be good in pve. Just because its not the best endgame weapon doesnt mean its bad...

      Yes, but you also have to remember that double special is the meta this season, I use the navigator in my strand build 100% of the time personally I can see why it’s better, of course quicksilver has the built in grenade launcher but navigator (being a trace rifle, trace rifles got a massive buff this season and also it’s incredibly easy to get) and also that new exotic helm that buffs trace rifles (which isn’t that hard to get either just do legend lost sectors) it’s easy to see why so many more people use it and why it is indeed better
      Edit* forgot to mention artifact mods making strand even more cracked this season synerging with the navigator better than quicksilver

    You have no idea how much I wish Symmetry was good. It feels absolutely phenomenal as a 260 scout rifle (which Wicked Implement really should have been) and the altfire is still decent for basic ad clear, but with the existence of Quicksilver Storm, Polaris Lance, etc, it is so far gone. Giving the altfire access to Arc 3.0 verbs would make it so much better.
    Maybe at 10 stacks, the altfire will blind targets, and at 20 stacks (which requires the catalyst), the altfire will additionally jolt for further ad clear.

    This seems pretty fair for the utility or power granted by slotting it. Some of the exotic primaries people love may be really good at killing red bars and even majors, but so is everything so it's not as valuable or impactful as something like witherhoard, div, or gjally. And the primaries that do make it into S teir have to be truly busted.

    I think ticcus isn’t b tier. I am not the most experienced player but I fell in love with it because it has a lot of dmg. For example if there is a knight in the middle of a lot of smaller red bar enemies, if you give the knight a crit it also crits around him and kill everything around it. It also has some single target dmg especially with the catalyst that boost its dmg by 107-277% which isn’t bad. I think wishender is the best bow but after that it’s ticcus in my opinion.

  • @Megatherium
    @Megatherium 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I’m sorry for this essay, but Leviathan’s breath is S+, I think it’s the best general-use endgame exotic weapon. This is coming from someone that does day-1 guilded conqueror and duo raids.
    Each arrow does same damage as a base rocket, yet with archer’s tempo it shoots at almost 50 RPM. No weapon in this game can match the DPS of Levi’s breath without a dedicated damage scenario like Wolfpack rocket rotations, or acrius. That means that this weapon is the highest DPS weapon that you can take with you anywhere in the game.
    It has strong ease of use and ammo economy, making it a powerhouse in GMs, raids, and dungeons. Each normal scav brick gives 5-6 arrows, making it one of the highest damage-per-brick weapons in the game. It’s not tied to any exotic armor or mods. It kills GM champions in 2 shots with void overcharge and a debuff or surge.
    The bonuses that push it over-the-top are that it’s unstop and it’s prone to damage-glitching at high FPS. At 160+ FPS you can stun and kill Unstoppable champs in a single shot in Master raids.
    This weapon is not punishing if you miss crits. You still do about 80% damage if you miss crit.
    For light blade, we ran div-cenotaph, and 2 Levi’s. The part with the huge ogres, we spent 1-2 arrows each and just killed everything in 45 seconds, from safety. In boss room, we would div a champ/lucent, then instakill them with 1 Levi shot each, and we would gain ammo from this. Then we just used heavy on boss because we’d be full. Using auto to break barriers is no problem when you instakill them every time. Unlike wishender this weapon is god tier everywhere.

    Rat King in F tier should be considered a hate crime and I will not stand for this slander. Even without rat pack triggered or even building into the perks it’s at least high B tier, if you’re actually building into it rat king is S tier. If you have a single stack of rat pack it’s the best exotic primary and if you get the fabled 5 stacks of rat pack it’s flat out THE best weapon.
    People forget outside of rat pack it’s still an amazing gun, turns out built in devour, invis on kill, and hitting like a truck makes a really good weapon that makes you straight up immortal while there’s any red bars

    Certain why tier exotics I'd have to hard disagree with ngl.
    All of them are playstyle dependant, though other exotics got higher ratings due to that as well, so why couldn't they?
    My rating increases and reasons why are:
    Hawkmoon is an incredible Primary in PVE, since it's single target dps can easily hang with most special weapions with the only requirement being to land crits. It isn't as Versatile as Outbreak and the likes though, so I'd argue mid C at least.
    Devil's Ruin is actually increadibly strong with its mini 1k laser beam + it offers anti champion capabilities, I'd suggest you use it, this thing can melt majors even in GMs, as if they were made out of butter, imo an easy B tier.
    Tommy's Matchbook, please at least use it with either a good titan or Warlock build focused around ignitions and the Restoration buff, this thing absolutely melts like crazy and effectively has intrinisc unstoppable with its ignitions as well, so I'd say easy top of B.
    Polaris Lance is in a similar situation, though you don't have to worry about restoration with it. Never reload, constant explosions that deal scorch and eventually ignite, all from a safe distance, sign me up. This thing is an absolute monster in mid to lower high end content and should not be underestimated, easy high C or even lower B tier.
    And last but not least, I'd argue that Traveler's Chosen is at least worth a lower C tier, as it can be crazy effective on certain ability spammy builds where cooldowns might not be as favorable as you'd want them to be.

    I think overall the rating is pretty good (im glad that quicksilver storm is in A and not in S cause I feel like people kinda overhype it and the other options in kinetic slot such as witherhoard, osteo etc. are way better).
    Altho I think some weapons dont deserve to be in "WHY" tier (= dont deserve to be on same tier as stuff like mida, manticore and other garbage, maybe separate tier?).
    Lorentz in full void build is both fun and solid option, it is still a linear fusion and with perk up + surges the dmg is actually pretty good (and its not that hard to proc the perk).
    Travelers chosen dmg is not bad, it can synergy with any build because of osmosis and can even further amplify ability spam which is the "current" meta in Destiny.
    Skyburner with Dawn chorus and schorch/ignition build is actually kinda fun way to deal with unstop champs and while niche, its solid pick for Proving grounds.
    Also I feel like many people (in chat) havent tried Revision Zero after the buffs - the dmg is actually pretty good (after all, Graviton was buffed to be on par with Revision and everyone is going "crazy" about Graviton yet neglect to mention Revision) and solid anti barr choice for people who get tired of using Wishender in any gm/activity with barr champs

    • @ballaxx3150
      @ballaxx3150 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Osteo is more overrated then quicksilver, with quicksilver the amount of damage you can do even in gms is honestly ridiculous and being able to one shot yellow bars that would usually take a full 50 bullets with just one rocket for just a primary weapon and getting the rockets are super easy and allows for more loadout freedom, with Osteo it’s a noob friendly weapon that’s it in a sandbox where ability uptime is so high having a build that relies on a primary for all your ad clearing is just kinda stupid. Osteo was meta in gms for two seconds cause the vorpal bug and that strand warlock build so overused and is garbage. And the point of quicksilver isn’t your usual primary use cases.

    Talking about Destiny exotics. . . Can we talk about Whisper of the Worm real quick? I have no clue why Whisper is still in the power slot, hell I've no idea why it's still an exotic, especially considering Crota's End is back. For anyone who doesn't know, Whisper started it's life back in destiny 1 as The Black Hammer, a legendary sniper dropped from the Crota's End raid. It dropped with the (at the time) new perk, White Nail. Back then White Nail refunded ammo to the magazine without drawing from reserves, allowing you to shoot without loosing any ammo as long as you could land 3 headshots in a row over and over again. Bungie eventually sunset Black Hammer and replaced it in a later DLC with the exotic Black Spindle, the exact same gun, but now exotic. Fast forwarding to Destiny 2, Bungie moved all secondary weapons to the heavy/power slot, and are forcing players to use double primary weapons. With this in mind, Black Hammer/Black Spindle is added back into the game as Whisper of the Worm, now in the power slot. However, back then Whisper was one of the best DPS methods in the game, with most raid bosses standing still almost all the time. Bungie nerfs Whisper, taking white nail and turning it into the exact same thing as tripe-tap, completely removing the entire point it was turned into an exotic in the first place. Now we fast forward even further, and now secondary weapons are no longer stuck in the power slot. This leaves Whisper of the Worm as an exotic sniper rifle doing secondary weapon dmg in the power slot with an exotic perk that just boils down to triple tap. Why is it an exotic and why is it in the power slot?

I was super not looking forward to using it, but after a handful of GMs and a vow, I can say it truely does it all and IS worth the exotic slot. Edit: Also discounted entirely the stunning capabilities of Salvations Grip smh. I know the system is relatively new, but you can't shit on one guy for saying anarchy is not deserved of S tier (an excellent compliment to double slugs, especially in a FT with a tractor) saying it's not like before and succumb to the exact same glaring issue.

I’ve found 2 new ones. We’ve grinded another 4 hours until the first one got his hierarchy. So we did it on master so he gets the catalyst with a deal so if one of us gets hierarchy in that run well do it again on master if another one of us gets it. Of course my other mate got it that run. So we did it again and also said if I get it we’ll do it again, after like 5 hours you can’t leave your tm8 hanging. So we did it again on master. And of cours I didn’t get it… so we said Ggs and I went lfg again. After 11 hours I finally got it. But my tm8s didn’t want to do it Master so it took me like30 minutes or so to find someone for master. So we did it again on master. I then went 30 min or so Farmington the catalyst. After roughly 12 hours, 3 am or so with catalyst unlocked i… was just done. But I had to test it….

    whisper is an underdog oryx meta again. we are easily outdamaging izi+cata users. straight B at least, maybe even A imo
    salvations grip i would give at least C aswell, because the "why" can be answered with "skips, oobs and the likes of sanctified mind glitching" . gotta give it that at least
    hawkmoon is at least C, prolly a solid low tier B, cuz paracausal shot is so fun to use in high end content aswell, plus it's unstop handcannon right now and it's just satisfying to cacaw unstops out of existence with it
    revision zero is a low B for me aswell, simply for the fact of having very high damage output on a primary aswell if need be

      1, as ad clear weapon u can place it on spawn point (and then focus on other spawn points) of enemies who will just literally get spawnkilled (duration used to be even longer but it has been nerfed)
      2, great additional passive dmg (it is used for min maxing dmg even on raid bosses) on single target (can even stack it by direct hit + hit on ground). the passive dmg has great synergy with many perks such as bait and switch which is one of the best perks atm
      3, one of the weapons with best ammo economy and ammo efficiency, its almost impossible to run out of ammo unless u are wasting your ammo
      it doesnt have intrinsic anti champ perk, however, it works with anti champ keywords, such as radiant, and with those its also one of the best weapons to pair it with (for example u can stick target with witherhoard, get radiant and the shot will still get anti barr function and given its dmg over time effect, it will start working as soon as possible even if the target will be gone from your line of sight)
