Destiny

I know there are many many posts about FotL 2024 and all the issues but was wondering what the Lemmy community thought about it?

I'll go first and spout the frequent criticism of no MM for expert difficulty. I don't understand these decisions, I'm in the everything should have MM and players can opt-out if they like.

Time to look at the reprised GoS weapons. These have been in long need of an update and are the only new craftable weapons this season. Most of these guns had crap perks on them but were otherwise good. I also think a lot of people hate that raid so you don't see them a lot.

Origin Trait: Photoinhibition - Deals bonus damage to shields and targets with overshields. Breaking a shield disorients combatants. Breaking a matching shield also disorients nearby combatants.

Accrued Redemption:

• Kinetic Precision Bow
• PVE Rolls
  • Archer's Tempo/Successful Warmup + Kinetic Tremors/Firefly/Explosive Head
• PVP Rolls
  • Archer's Tempo/Successful Warmup/To The Pain/Killing Wind + Kinetic Tremors/Firefly/Explosive Head
• Its a bow with good perks. I'm still not a bow guy so IDK if I personally care.

Sacred Provenance:

• Kinetic Aggressive Burst Pulse Rifle
• PVE Rolls
  • Rapid Hit + Kinetic Tremors/One for All
• PVP Rolls
  • Rapid Hit/Killing Wind/Heating Up/Steady Hands + Kinetic Tremors/Kill Clip/Headseeker
• I remember this gun being exceptionally good with Headseeker back when it came out. It's got some pretty obvious good combos and is one of the few guns I'd actually want to get from the raid.

Reckless Oracle:

• Void 720 RPM AR
• PVE Rolls
  • Destabilizing Rounds/Demolitionist/Subsistence + Paracausal Affinity/One for All/Repulsor Brace
• PVP Rolls
  • Tap the Trigger/Keep Away/Killing Wind + Kill Clip/Dynamic Sway Reduction
• This is a really good AR that I think flew under the radar for a lot of people because it had crap perks before. Shame it doesn't get Onslaught or Rampage.

Zealot's Reward:

• Void Rapid Fire Fusion Rifle
• PVE Rolls
  • Subsistence/Auto Loading Holster/Destabilizing Rounds + Reservoir Burs/Controlled Burst/Rampage/One for All
• PVP Rolls
  • Under Pressure + Kick Start/Closing Time
• Another good weapon that maybe had like one good roll? I would see it in Crucible occasionally.
• Looks like this one will be a really good PVE weapon with lots of options.

Prophet of Doom:

• Arc Precision Pellet Shotgun
• PVE Rolls
  • This thing is stacked in the first column. I think all the perks are workable in PVE so I'd take a look at it in game or on light.gg. In the second column the only perks I wouldn't take for PVE are Barrel Constrictor or Closing Time
• PVP Rolls
  • Threat Detector/Slideways + Opening Shot/Closing Time
• I loved this shotgun when it came out and it was one of the only guns I ever got from that raid that I actually used consistently.
• Precision Frames are probably still the best SG in the Crucible but this thing has some good PVE rolls too.

Omniscient Eye:

• Solar Rapid Fire Frame Sniper
• It's a rapid fire sniper and it's only good DPS combo is Fourth Times the Charm + Precision Instrument.
• Until Snipers are really good at DPS again (outside a few outliers) I'm not going to give a crap about this one.

Ancient Gospel:

• Void 140 RPM HC
• PVE Rolls
  • Rampage/Air Trigger/Destabilizing Rounds/Rapid Hit + Kill Clip/Explosive Payload
• PVP Rolls
  • Rampage/Air Trigger/Rapid Hit/Eye of the Storm + Kill Clip/To The Pain/Rangefinder/Closing Time/Harmony
• Looks like we got Kindled Orchid back (kind of).
• It's got some interesting rolls but HCs are a dime a dozen now. Rampage Kill Clip might tear it up in low level content or 6v6.
