Long sory short this was an absolute busted perk on sniper rifles because it allows snipers to one shot body shot by simply firing your sniper at at wall and gaining the weapon damage without actually earning it.
Ladies and gentlemen may i introduce you high impact reserves on bottom dollar a 120 rpm hand cannon. For those of you who do not understand let me explain. Any damage buff on 120 hand cannons will allow them to 2 shot head shot. This would give this hand cannon the fastes ttk primary in the game outside of of hawkmoon x4 stacks and higher. But unlike hawkmoon you dont need to land 4 presision hits, instead its all for the low low price of firing 4 bullets at a wall. This gun with high impace reserves is going to be one of the most broken weapons in pvp and it needs to have this perk removed, like how dragon fly was removed from. Cold front, or nerf HIR in some reasonable way. I would go for the first.
Who ever at bungie decided to include this perk on this weapon clearly didn't think this through. We all make mistakes but lets fix this one before it starts doing real damage
dragonfly being removed from coldfront was not correlated in any way to it's efficacy in pvp. that was just because a kinetic was not supposed to roll with dragonfly
There are two SMG's that roll with dragonfly, the Dawning one and the Warmind one.
why are you replying to a comment from three months ago?
the dawning one is kinetic and shouldn't have been able to roll firefly, and the warming ones are energy, so it makes sense that they can
Oh yeah you're right about the seventh seraph. So the Coldsnap smg was a mistake? They had DF on it for two Dawnings in a row.
What's wrong with commenting? Old comments need love too my guy.
lol just confused because dawning is over
and yes it was a mistake, they replaced it with swash iirc
Oh gotcha, haha thanks. BTW, did you ever try dragonfly with cold front? What element was the explosion?
AoS
Ace of Spades is the exception and technically doesn't roll with Dragonfly, its perk is called Firefly. It's also an exotic. Cold Front was a legendary.
It has Firefly and it's an exotic
Still a bullshit excuse. There is 0 reason that kinetics cant have firefly.
I saw some tests on this. I don't think it allows for a two tap. Just makes it 1h2b. Maybe if you are at zero resilience or something crazy it might two tap.
The first shot after high impact reserves does 93, I don't know about the others.
My Bottom dollar has 14 in the mag, I use back up mag and appended mag. The bottom 7 get the buff, but the first 2 shots will only kill resilience 2 Guardians of think (186 is 1 resilience and the second shot should deal more damage)
If I only leave 4 bullets however, I think it might 2 shot most Guardians. I just don't have anybody to test it on
Damn that's wild.
Oh well shit. That's pretty crazy.
Thats true but i havent seen any tests with it just lucky's video and the way he presented it it didnt 2 tap or it did and he just didnt show or say that
Run higher resilience. 120s and stasis has made resilience an important stat. I have 9m9Res7Rec (with stasis fragments) and 120s aren't a huge issue.
