Alright,, made a mistake, I get it. Took a shot in the dark out of my comfort zone and it backfired. Lesson learned.
hopefully the main idea at least still gets across and discussed because the weapon still needs help any way you look at it.
Genuinely annoyed at myself.
Sorry for the screw up.
nobody is perfect man. Still a very cool video about a clearly forgotten gun.
Yeah, mistakes happen. Besides, even if you got the specifics wrong, overall the point is still good. DARCI still sucks, and the Jolting doesn't help it at all.
It happens chief, don’t sweat it. Your main point is valid anyway
Honestly I'm more impressed you actually remember the literal 15 minutes of fame DARCI had for Scourge, they made it good for like a month or something and then no more.
you will NOT be forgiven. Your forklift license will be revoked tomorrow morning. ⚠️⚠️⚠️
The jolt is applied automatically. It's not voltshot. It definitely needs help, but having jolt isn't an issue.
I was about to say. Its not voltshot. Applying jolt onto targets from hit with no setup is mildly useful. MILDLY useful. But yeah, you don't waste any ammo to apply jolt.
lol why is he crying about it when he doesn’t even know how it works
You don’t need to reload and shoot another target. That’s specific to Voltshot
Doesnt darcy just jolt when the exotic perk aka Box breathing with another name procs? No need for kill+reload like voltshot
That is correct. Still not amazing, but it is the easiest jolt applicator in the game.
yeah that is correct
Personal Assistant: Aim at an enemy to reveal important information in its scope and mark its weak points. Marked weak points take additional precision damage.
So an effect like the scanner buff from dsc but only for the spots that take precision damage. The mark will take ~2 seconds to activate and linger for 6 seconds after descoping. You would deal 25% increased precision damage when hitting this mark.
Target Acquired: While personal assistant is active gain significantly increased target acquisition, precision damage, and an improved rate of fire.
Remove hipfire and airborne penalties while its active. Decrease the precision damage increase to 25% but it would be 50% when combined with the intrinsic perk. Slightly increase rate of fire to 160 RPM.
Catalyst - Support Fire: Information from Personal Assistant is shared with nearby allies.
Allies see the weak point mark and also deal 25% more precision damage when hitting it.
Basically make DARCI the Gjallarhorn of linears and snipers, and encourage using precision weapons without a Divinity. While also slightly increasing the DPS of DARCI. It shouldnt need to be the best weapon fir damage, but it should give linears and snipers a spot in a meta dominated by rockets and gls.
This is actually a perfect rework in my opinion, very creative and thought out too!
As someone who loved Darci without knowing it was meta, thanks for this brilliant idea of a buff
Cerberus is more relevant than Darci now
It's always been....
Darci Rework idea:
> keep its identity as a targeting system/weapons ai but bring it more in line. Functions similarly to whisper with a gimmick that can lead to higher damage.
> personal assistant stays
> exotic perk: when personal assistant is active, rapid precision hits reveals weakspots on the target. Hits on weakspots deal significantly more damage and can partially reload the magazine.
- think nezzy/tormentor weakspots show up as you deal damage. 7 round mag so every 3 precision hits reveals a weakspot, weakspots take 2 rounds to destroy. If you destroy a weakspot target takes even more damage and adds two rounds to the mag. 2 weakspots per mag basically.
> Weakspots only visible by Darci scopes so allies using Darci can also see them when scoped in. So multiple people can be generating weakspots while others shoot and destroy them.
> idea is to have Darci be able to chunk health as great burst dps, but balanced by not having such deep reserves.
the problem with this idea, is that boss dps phases are not long enough for this to work well enough. + the dmg boost from shooting the weakspots would have to be MASSIVE to use it over a rocket/gl
So many middle pieces can be cut out to have the same effect. Could literally just be: “While PA is active, rapidly landing (idk like 5) precision hits increase precision damage against Arc debuffed targets for a moderate duration. The more precision shots landed consecutively, the higher this bonus.”
The whole weak point thing now requires Bungie to redesign every single enemy in the game to accommodate the whole “weak spot” idea.
Have you seen Skull of Dire Ahamkara dog 💀
thats what im sayin like theres so many other exotics that never even got any love
it's not voltshot lmao it just jolts through it's perk. that being said everything else you said is correct, holy shit it needs some serious attention.
And yet cloud strike exists, bungie def power crept the hell out of it.
If only
I could see them giving DARCI even more synergy with Arc, namely “Being Amplified continuously reloads this weapon from reserves”. Having not used DARCI in years, I’d think all it needs is something that doesn’t require you to reload in order for it to compete in DPS, as rapid fire frames have historically been superior in DPS, but not great in total damage.
Queenbreaker, Prospector, Symmetry, Colony, & Worldline Zero fall under this same umbrella of forgotten exotics that Bungie doesn't care to buff. In an ideal world every exotic would have a use case somewhere in the game, but powercreep is so blatant with these weapons that something needs to be done. Great video
They did just buff 3 of those weapons though?
@@xNeoNxCyaNin fact they did but have seen at least a single person with it?
I thought the jolt from DARCI was applied on hit as soon as the target is highlighted.
It does it’s not volt shot 😂
I'd like them to change it to a Kinetic Heavy Sniper.
Whilst Personal Assistant is active, shots against champions will stun them or break their shields. Deals full damage against elemental shields.
Grants huge aim assist bonuses to bend with a large margin to crit.
Sadly something like that would never happen.
People persisted that they wanted Coldheart changed to Stasis when Beyond Light released because it had "Cold" in it's name, but they haven't changed it because of it's actual lore behind the weapon.
Anyways, for DARCI, the only thing that can be done is to change the perks around and actually give a good exotic perk that isn't well... You can see HP of enemies wow!
This is something like what happened to Bastion now with it's secondary new perk and it is actually pretty busted.
Even if it got changed to a Kinetic, Izanagi's exists. Darci needs to have a juiced catalyst and a desperate reserves buff- maybe the catalyst could be a different version of White Nail where, while Personal Assistant is proc'd every shot is returned to the mag allowing you to mag dump on a boss without a reload. That would make it at least semi-competitive with Izanagi for sustain.
*looks inside weapon vault* The dust is thick on this one.
Looks inside Collections.
Oh damn, it still exists.
This thing either needs 100 ammo or a upgrade in the damage department. I barely was able to tolerate the catalyst grind for Darci
that shit only gives stability bruh not worth
The thumbnail is too accurate
They gave us a special Darci in the form of Cloudstrike
Watching that calus clip, with 100+ skulls and not one phasing is crazy to me
I've got this. It should synergize with my other assistant. Once activated turn all active turrents into prismatic grenade spam on a single target
11:50 *slams hammer* “it shall only be used for gun range testing” *looks at cross fallout and everyone else using it for that*
GTA 6 might drop before Bungie changes DARCI from Heavy Weapon to Special Weapon 💀
It's baffling that we've had several special weapons that absolutely smash everything when it comes to DPS, but they're so stingy with buffing heavy DPS exotics.
Acrius, Whisper, Leviathan's Breath, and Thunderlord got excellent catalysts and small changes that made them incredibly viable for the last 2-ish years.
Meanwhile, DARCI, Prospector, Queenbreaker, Wardcliff, 1k Voices, and even Xenophage have been borderline useless for a few years, outside of a few very specific uses like Deep Stone Security, oracles in VoG, and being a tape measure in private matches. All of them have excellent meta shaking potential, but they refuse to do anything of value to them, except Queenbreaker which they keep saying is getting a rework at some point in the next decade.
Pretty much all of them boil down to either give it something to auto load the gun, or give it a bit better damage and instantly it's at least decently viable. For prospector, it's literally just give it slightly more damage, and make it so grenades dont instantly explode on contact so you can stack the burn.
For Darci, make it a special weapon, or buff the hell out of it. It shouldn't be a heavy weapon that could shoot half it's reserves and barely match the damage of a single use of Cayde's Retribution. It's genuinely a gun that could get a ton of buffs, and not even be that OP in the current landscape. Heavy slot is gradually losing it's purpose, and that goes against the entire point of heavy weapons.
I feel like for champions, personal assistant can become the stun type for that champion for a short period and severely more damage.
Increased the base damage against all bosses by 70%
If this weapon does have a catalyst I'll add something to it.
Getting final blows or rapid precision hits heal the user and grants an additional 10% damage bonus.
And increased stats when personal assistant is active by 10, ignoring impact, this buff will remains active momentarily, so, unscoping and rescoping will keep the PA still active and allows the user to reload musch faster as this stat is tripled by 30.
I really want to understand why bungie pretends its worth wasting your exotic and heavy slot on a sniper that is completely outclassed by legendary special snipers. Even if Darci was a legendary special sniper with the exact same perks it would still be a bad weapon.
There's the idea going around for D.A.R.C.I that the sniper rifle could be reworked into a omni-Champion buster, via the Personal Assistant loading in specialized rounds after a brief analysis of the target. Heck even I had the idea, too. I did get another idea for a modest adjustment to DARCI, though: take off its Voltshot ability, and replace it with modified versions Zen Moment and Target Lock.
The way this new DARCI has the same design philosophy as Merciless. The more shots you fire, the more damage you deal, and the easier DARCI is to control. Eventually, through the power of its sophisticated artificial intelligence, the sniper rifle becomes a recoilless high damage boss buster.
Actually giving it precision instrument and zen moment may actually not be that bad of an idea tbh
@@xNeoNxCyaN Oh right! I didn't even remember the perk, that'd be pretty fitting too.
I guess Target Lock would still work because it's less dependant on you landing crits, but Precise is more fitting for sniper rifles in general.
I really wish that they look into it cause like we got only two heavy snipers in the it feels kinda off to have one of them be utter shit
the sad truth about DARCI is that is an INFO weapon, I think they just want to leave it that way, just to check distance and whatever she offers, which is really sad
My friends called me stupid in 2021 when I said they should give gjallarhorn rockets to swords. Now we have ergo sum. Give darci Wolfpack rounds and a veist stinger and kinetic tremors effect
I hate nerfs so much. I quit Overwatch because I got sick of having to relearn how much damage my guns do. Bungie should just give DARCI ricochet shots like the Khovostov, since it's a 'smart' gun. They won't do it though because it's an idea they could use for a future exotic.
It doesn't have voltshot, it jolts on any hit after a second of ads
the jolt isn't like voltshot, when you are adsing on lets say a boss and you can see its health percentage that's when D.A.R.C.I. applies the jolt
i was thinkin about darci like 2 days ago lol
Locking onto an enemy and hitting that enemy causes constant jolt damage over time as long as you ads. After the first target, you can target more enemies by shooting them. The jolt will bounce from target to target. After every 3 jolt procs DARCI will reload 1 round from reserves. Damage ramps up with every extra target.
Still Hunt and DARCI should switch slots. Everything else would work itself out. Still Hunt could keep its high damage profile and be justified, and DARCI would have an excuse to be as bad as it is
i would change the trait with adding the perk onto it and making a new perk for it or making the catalyst actually do something besides stat bumps
I really don't think they'll nerf still hunt because bungie has been pushing snipers so hard.
Homie literally never used Darci before this video apparently, how do you read the perk and figure out “oh this sniper has volt shot” when it clearly just says it jolts targets
Well I wont say the mistake since you know that already. But I do agree Darci needs help. I love the feeling of the gun, and normally i hate snipers except a few.
I feel like it should get more damage, but also more utility as well. Personal assistant should just gain the effects of target aquired, then target aquired lets you pass all the personal assistant buffs to your nearby allies. Giving them all more target acquision and precision damage, then perhaps the catalyst adds that dealing sustained damage to a target marked increases damage over time(built in target lock basically, but doesnt end instantly upon reload as long as you are locked onto a target). this would make DARCI become a mix of support and personal damage with I feel fits its identity, and give some more options for team set ups. You got Gally, you got tracktor, you got Div, You got determanistic chaos, and now you got Darci. all have different use cases and helps out the team
Also, I would love it if DARCI had a Failsafe ornament where failsafe talks to you while you use it.
I pulled it out recently, to complete the catalyst 😂😂 Pls bungo do something with this gun. It has no place currently.
I would love for Darci to make other arc weapons do more damage, especially since there are very few meta arc weapons for dps.
Similar to old tractor that made void weapons specifically do more dmg than other elements.
Other critical information, like where Darci’s damage went …. 😂😂😂
saying buffing darcie is like saying remaster die rise.
Sad, but true
DARCI's exotic perk: let's you see where DARCI's damage went. I'm ded posting this from the great beyond
Not every heavy needs to be a dps weapon. The jolt on hit is CRAZY add clear and ez overload. Perfect on hyper current sniper champs. Darcy isn't bad. It has its place and it doesn't need to be dps.
Bro didn't use the gun before the review 😂🤡😂🤡😂🤡😂
Darci but you get enough precision shots it becomes a trace rifle and shoots a mega laser
my idea for a darci rework would be to make it the best anti champion weapon. give it double or even triple damage against champs and make it so when personal assistant scans a champion, darci gets innate anti champion for that type of champion. so if darci scans a barrier champ, it gets anti barrier but if u scan overload right after it changes to overload. its balanced by the fact it is a heavy weapon so it would be good for boss dps, but would be the best anti champion weapon in the game.
I'd make it so the cascade point idea is applied 10x, meaning it turns into a 7-burst pulse rifle sniper. and if you hit 4 of the shots, it jolts. maybe if you hit all 7 it does something more as well, perhaps loops into the next magazine?
I miss one tapping nokris with celestial
Also this vid can be titled
"Fool doesnt know the difference between voltshot and darci and didn't even pickup the weapon to test how it works"
I have an idea for a buff. Give it somthing i call the Tremendous Individual Targeting System, or T.I.T.S. Basically it gives Darcy a pair of huge buffs, inflicting blind on foes, but T.I.T.S also buffs all guardians as well.
Honestly the biggest thing they could do for darci is make it a special ammo weapon instead of heavy.
Me and my friends think the same
Fun fact. In year 1 of d2. Borealis was miles better than darci. Borealis while on void could out dps whisper with the catalyst
But its was playstation only at the time
I miss y1 borealis 😢
The perk should be weaken instead of jolt, the ammo should be increased and the damage output should be at least 10-15% higher to be competitive. At this moment the weapon is just ass
Whats wrong with jolt?? We are no in a heavy weapon meta where heavy is only for damage
Not voltshot u noob
Please bungie for the love of god just make it a special weapon 😩
Meanwhile whisper was able to instant ignite enemies last season on every shot
Since they gave it jolt, they should go further into that identity and also give it eddy current and a unique trait with amplified. While amplified, it does more damage and has a faster fire rate.
Ive had uses for darci for a mixed playstyle for primarily onslaught for doing damage on big targets while jolt takes out ads. I do wish it was on par with wisper but with more burst DPS instead of total damage, probably with a perk like cascade point but for hitting marked targets it activates. Would love to see more Heavy snipers with the other elements though.
Id take Darci being made special, but still hunt needs to just not interact with nighthawk that would be the one nerf id see them doing.
@issacne1085 they wouldn't, that's the bug idea with still hunt
Here is the 2 ideas ive thought of for Darci. I wish it was better since it was my first exotic for my lost account.
For DPS
Hitting a precision hit amplifies the next shot up to 6 stacks at 25% and reloads 1 bullet from reserve(basically Precision Instrument with an amped up Rewind Rounds)
For ad clear/utility
Dealing precision damage to an enemy grants 1 stack of Data Collection(name is just a place holder but feels fitting) up to 7 stacks. Upon killing an enemy with a precision hit, grants 1 bullet for each stack of Data Collection into the magazine(can overfill).
Both ideas ive given is an idea. But it is a choice of 1 or another. These ideas does have a difference. If the DPS route is taken, it would be like the Whisper while in the other route, it is there to have the workings like a precision Eyes of Tomorrow. I do think the ad clear/utility idea makes it have a very unique identity though. Even though they can add both together, it does make for some infinite ammo boss fights as you can just shoot the boss 7 times in the crit spot and just kill a random add just to overflow the magazine to 14. But a better approach to mix both together is having the autoloading part from the 1st idea only activate on non lethal precision hits. But i do want to see what could be changed to the ideas which ive given.
Darci Buff
Move to Kinetic Slot while Personally Assistant is affecting a champion Darci can stun them.
Change the catalyst to
Analysis Unmovable: When Personally Assistant scans a boss or Mini Boss the rounds are changed to tracer rounds that linger for 5 Seconds and buff Darci's Damage
I'm all for any attention being brought to outdated gear that just didn't age well. So this is pog and I hope they do something with it
also mistake or not this brings up the question of why Bungie allows certain gear to be meta and others to barely function.
Lets just make Darci the new still hunt for warlocks or titans same functionality as still hunt but its "super shot" is a thundercrash or a chaos reach that just does insane dmg and make it work with cuirass by giving it the bonus dmg and geomags which would refund some of the "super shot" meter
also this is a joke don't take it seriously
But it jolts
Instead of jolt it should be weaken, one which can be overridden by a better version of weaken like tether, increase damage by 20 percent, make it so personal assistant is active immediately upon scoping in on an enemy. Or keep jolt and add some of this shit to the catalyst, and change the catalyst to just kills rather than precision kills. Oh and the mandatory increase in reserves ofc.
It's an arc weapon
@@Ineednohelp nah but it would fit the weapon. An ai that helps identify an enemy's weakness, what better debuff than weaken
@@charliejones5953 no its not void.
@@Ineednohelp k bro
It doesn't need a kill to proc the jolt though, still bad but it does apply jolt pretty easily
regardless of the jolt taking effect on hits or after kills ( similar to voltshot ), looking at ur opinion actually made me think about these things too and im actually wondering why the hell were getting special weapons that outclass heavy weapons in every possible way it literally makes no sense and i feel like some special weapons overall need changes, still hunt being the most superior one ofc, but also some other things that are substantly better than some old gems from way back in the day. to me it just feels like they wanted to bring new, powerful stuff into the final shape, WHICH IS FINE, but atleast dont let old weapons, specifically exotics suffer for years and years being useless in every single way
Make it so it leaves an arc trip grenade on impact
I mean, I would rather bungie pushes it even further into utility. I want more utility based heavy weapons, not everything needs to just be damage. Like darci actually performs fairly well in nightfalls,
cascade would be nice but doesn't fit the theme of darci
"LOL," said the comments, "LMAO."
Why does it even exist at this point
Imo I think letting it load an anti-champion round (specific to whatever champion you target or last damaged) would be awesome. It could be an alternate reload by izanagis and could be enabled by killing enemies or smth
maybe its just me but I feel like heavies for the most part shouldn't have champ-related perks unless it's an all-in-one kind of deal or a case like levi's breath where you get full damage + the stun on initial hit.
@@SneakyBeaver it would have an all-in-one since it’d load an anti-barrier, unstop, or overload round depending on what champ you scan or last damaged
Thank you someone remembers my good old girl darci, I hope they buff her plz we need to get this shit trending or something
Lol the crazy thing is that people keep asking for bungie to make it a special but it would still be dead in the special slot not even counting still hunt I think cloudstrike beats it
I’d like a complete rework about its functionality, because its old form never had an identity in my opinion, other than dealing big damage, I kinda want it to be either “bait and switch” but as an exotic, or maybe its damage is used to fuel supers or abilities, so a warlock could use this as a grenade spam weapon, but those are very lack luster ideas, but are things that I would hope to see redefine the weapon rather than it just being able to deal damage because “it need deal better damage”
The balancing team is holding this game back SOOOO hard
How?
@@Ben-M112 No changes to old exotics and boring metas
PvE balance is probably the best its ever been
7:06 Bad news. Trophy Hunter isn't returning. Its not in the database.
I think you're misunderstanding the difference between Jolt and Voltshot
Queenbreaker, Borealis, and DARCI need buffs to damage, and not just jolt (Ik that borealis doesn’t jolt)
darci needs to be a special weapon
You're right that darci is in the dumbster, honestly i didn't even know that it was good as some point so ty for that information. Honestly tho i don't think it will get buffed at least a little bit to it's former glory, probably because darci is free, it's base game but sill hunt it's the new shinny thing with the new dlc and for izanagi you have to buy the forsaken pack....
I'm just giving my 2 cens here but i think i understand what you're getting at.
The problem with the gun is if it was a special weapon it would be one of the best special weapons, at least for snipers because it would be right there with supremacy on damage if I remember correctly from the tests. Which still isn't enough because one is a legendary the other is an exotic,
It doesn't have a place it isn't a preeminent debuff weapon or weakness applying weapon (I consider those two different concepts because imagine a weapon that makes it to where using a certain type of thing gives you increase damage versus a flat increase) and it's not an insane damage weapon it's one of the worst heavy weapons in the game, and if it was a special weapon it still would be behind legendaries the best in class but it would still be behind,
They need to either make it a special weapon and change nothing or they need to change everything, since it's a sniper they should probably just make it better at single Target. They could give it its own version of calibrating data so that way they can give it a stronger affect just as an added thing to it and since there is a split between the sandboxes even though they forget so often, they could make it something like in PVE once you hit enough headshots or kill enough things it increases the base damage of the next magazine or guarantees headshots and causes the bullets to go all fifth Element.
Because genuinely I don't know a way to make this weapon better. They could give it a stacking buff that can exponentially increase the damage on a single Target the more around you land on Target, there isn't a lot they can do. Because it seems like for some reason when they were paying attention to the weapon they were afraid of it, and now they don't even care about the weapon,
And that's consistent with them there's a lot of exotic armor pieces that have needed reworks for half a decade and they haven't done anything with them. I just don't think they care.
DARCI should have an enhanced crit modifier that reveals a weak spot on enemies at random that deals more crit damage than your typical headshot, that stacks up. Only way I see them using the "info" darci gives when scoped in a power fantasy. More difficult and more rewarding sign some mains up.
I put this on in pvp just for the memes
Wait we used Darci to check Simmumah health on master Gotd cheese so...
Yeah, I remember that, that's when I did the master cheese 😂
Make it like still hunt or cloudstrike
Darci haters will try to convince you moving it to special wont fix its issues.
Don't you dare listen
All this video is going to do is just nerf all snipers.
No mention of borealis?
At this point just make it a special 💀
yeah like 95% of this video is cooking for sure. Just the remaining 5% of not realizing that the wording was VERY specific in saying "applies jolt" & misinterpreting that as voltshot is kind of unfortunate, lol. Sitting here wishing Darci was better while hearing "it should just apply jolt naturally just while shooting" like...it already does that now. Still isn't helping, lol.
Give Darci precision instrument
wait, they're cooking
Imagine if the actually go an make DARCI useful, would be nice
Jolt ≠ Voltshot
darci my beloved
Bro doesnt know how jolt works
slap it onto the special slot and bam, easy fix
Then it would compete with cloudstrike and still never be used
What about queenbreaker 💀
Uh oh. Did you use this before you made the video? Lmao
Darcii, is so fucking bad the accuracy is so bad
