What's the best seasonal weapon reward for PvE

[paper wyvern]

u mean weapons from pass?

[prisma moth]

Yez

[hushed sage]

prodigal return with envious assassin isnt bad

[prisma moth]

I accidentally maxed out royal executioner but apparently sucks in this meta

[hushed sage]

its good as well

[vapid bison]

all are bad imo

[exotic anchor]

The exotic bow is decent

[vapid bison]

yeah but it's kinda outdone by the other exotic bows and only really worth using if u have a stasis build

[prisma moth]

I hav that one from a quest

[stark herald]

You are wrong. It has a perk combo that wipes ad groups
envious assassin(always at full mag) + reservoir burst(always proc'ed)

[mild viper]

But you have to efficiently clear ads with another weapon to proc the perk, so you’re already wiping ads with another weapon anyway.

[stark herald]

you need to clear ads anyway. This combo clears groups even faster. idk what's inefficient here.

[barren stream]

Incand is better

Res burst blows

[stark herald]

no, incand just applies scorches but reservoir burst outright deletes groups

[barren stream]

???

Incand is far better, the res burst explosion is super weak

[stark herald]

Use the weapon first bro

[barren stream]

Fusions pierce enemies naturally, if you kill 2 or 3 you ignition every enemy in a group

And it does far far more damage for the same kill requirements

With a larger aoe and subclass synergies

[mild viper]

That’s the problem. If you’re already clearing ads fast enough to proc the perk, why would you need a second ad clear weapon.

[barren stream]

Envious is fine if on double special tbh

You get so much heavy you can just use a rocket shot to proc envious again and overflow double mag

[stark herald]

u don't need to clear ads fast to proc assassin. just get 2-3 kills.

[mild viper]

Ah I guess I could see that working. When it’s in the same slot as forbearance it just seems like more work for less gain.

[stark herald]

just try new weapons for change

this is why sunset happened

[mild viper]

Well if they’re better I will, why would I intentionally be less effective.

[stark herald]

It's not bro. u are just so in denial. watch a video on it. u get how good it is.

[barren stream]

This person is delusional ignore

[barren stream]

You are correct yea

But in the context of fusions incand is exceptionally good

On par with chain reaction for add clear

If they made an incand wave frame it'd prob be game breaking

[mild viper]

any specific one? skimming through CoolGuy and Ehroar's videos they are using it in normal lost sectors, strikes, RoN, and altar of sorrow. not exactly the most inspiring to me.

[mild viper]

haha yeah that would be pretty ridiculous

[stark herald]

watch that profane gaming one. I can't use same weapon for a entire season atleast. gets boring af.

[prisma moth]

Where do u get those perks

mine didnt roll w those somehow

[stark herald]

just farm the defiant battlegrounds, use keys and craft it. easier than farming for the roll itself.

[prisma moth]

oh

and one more thing(cos I'm new) does dismantling maxed weapon onto non maxed max that one oat too

[stark herald]

u mean infusing?

[prisma moth]

yes

[stark herald]

maxed u mean master worked?

no one usually masterwork a weapon they intend to infuse

u did only use trash high power weapons to infuse

[prisma moth]

Oh

ic, but is it possible anyway

[barren stream]

No

[wintry veldt]

reservoir burst is better then incandescent

the explosion from 1 kill is already big enough and the bolt also does about 25 or 40% more

the only good thing to pair with royal exe is osteo

[stark herald]

Finally, someone who ACTUALLY plays the game.
Seeing ppl giving free game advices lately without even doing a GM atleast. D2 players are something else.

[wintry veldt]

the only good things from this season are royal exe and regnant

there may be some bias with royal exe though since I dont have a cartesian coordinate

the other weapons pale in comparison to other weapons

[barren stream]

Res burst just felt weak to me vs 2-3 ignitions at once in master dungeons

[wintry veldt]

incandescent does not proc ignitions that easily

[barren stream]

It does lol what

Fusions pierce enemies, if shooting a group you'll naturally kill 2 or 3 same time

You have such bad takes man it's crazy

[prisma moth]

anooother question, which perk is bettah in racounter, wellspring or shoot to loot

Lastly, what are THE best perks on regant n caretaker

[barren stream]

Regnant is explosive light and alh or envious

Depends what you're doing

Caretaker is kind of a meme sword but can roll like tireless incandescent or something

Or valiant charge for Walmart eager edge

[prisma moth]

damn I'm always so unlucky with these parks

perks

always miss the mark so hard

Do perks have specific rates

[barren stream]

They're craftable you really shouldn't care about the weapons until you have the patterns tbh

[wintry veldt]

reservoir burst chunks down majors harder and is on the same level of ad clear as incandesant

When I pull out my fusion it is 9/10 times to chunk down a champion

however royal executioner has reservoir burst

which helps it chunk down champions AND obliterate a group of enemies

theres a reason reservoir burst is only for the first magazine, if it was for the full mag it would be broken

envious assassin helps it with its weakness
