Need help on choosing which Yeartide Apex

[timber pier]

I need some help with which Yeartide Apex to use. I have 2, both with good rolls. The first is a normal T5 with Flueted Barrel, Flared Magwell, Heal Clip, Chaos Reshaped, Incandescent and Burning Ambition.

The second is a shiny T5 with Polygonal Rifling, Ricochet Rounds, Atrition Orbs, Heal Clip, Chaos Reshaped and Incandescent.

Please, I need to know, guys

This is missing perks if it’s a t5, what are the third perks for c3/c4

The rolls are nearly identical, use the one that feels better to you

[timber pier]

I'm only telling the ones I care about

The only rolls that are actually good

[timber pier]

What about the barrel and mag?

[naive ridge]

If it’s pve, the internals barely matter — literally use the one that feels better to you. If the reload from flared mag well feels better, use it. If the stability and range from ricochet rounds feels better, use that one, if you only want to use a shiny, use that

play around with both of them and see which one you like, that’s the final factor

Honestly you could have made it easier for US to help YOU compare by listing the weapon traits in the same order (barrel, mag, perk1, perk2).

[fallen oracle]

Agree with you, at least perk wise they're literally the same, difference being burning ambition or attrition orbs basically.

I keep multiple copies for different situations, but I personally I have more kills on the attrition orb one

It's pve, like @naive ridge said, the barrel/mag barely matter (especially since the origin trait speed up reload on hipfire hits). If this was pvp that would be a different story.

[naive ridge]

That too, but again, pve, so who gaf.

If I could upload an screenshot from both weapons, I would. But this server does not allow it

[fallen oracle]

didnt ask for a screenshot, just ordering the perks in the same order so we don't have to try and figure out which combinations to compare.

[timber pier]

first yeartide: barrels: fluted and chambered. mag: extended and flared. c3: transcendent, heal clip, demo. c4: burning, incandescent, chaos reshaped

second: barrels: extended and polygonal. Mag: extended and ricochet rounds. c3: transcendent, heal clip, attrition. C4: incandescent, harmony, chaos reshaped

first one has a stability masterwork. Second has a reload masterwork

[fallen oracle]

general purpose one I would pick

[fallen oracle]

grenade build or ignition pick
