I feel like a lot of specials in the PvE sandbox need love, but I first wanted to touch on shotguns because they hold both the riskiest yet least rewarding playstyles in the game as of this moment. Slug Shottys are solid, but the Rapid-Fire, Precision, Aggressives and Lightweights are suffering in most endgame content.
As for Acrius has been great for some time but much like Whisper of the Worm got to maintain the original version of Boxed Breathing, now called Whispered Breathing, it'd be nice to see Acrius get the Original version of Trench Barrel that activated on melee for 10 seconds and have no shot limit before that time expired.
I looked up the definition for Acrius and saw in Latin it'd mean Sharply, Vigilantly, or fiercely so maybe calling the new perk "Vehement Barrel" would be fitting like adding context to its name with the catalyst as a follow up word. Fiercely - in a Passionate manner

Acrius is an anagram of Icarus, and the lore tab draws a parallel between the Greek mythology and that of the Cabal.

5 RepliesI keep seeing people begging to buff PVE weapons. I don't know what they're talking about. I sometimes double and even triple shotguns.

When I warlock I rain of fire Tractor, imperial,mindbender,imperial,mindbender,imperial,mindbender,tractor... its overal very solid dps when you can be close for bosses like oryx or dungeon bosses like caitl.
