So after getting tired of resorting to using Gjallarhorn for literally every boss fight in the game i wanted to find a better alternative, or at least something that came somewhat close. The first weapon that come to my mind was the Thunderlord. I didn't think it would be better than the Gjallarhorn, but i thought it would be a close contender. After further investigation over the max damage each weapon could do with full heavy (7 rockets in Ghorn and 181 shots in thunderlord) it looks like the thunder lord will be doing quite more than the beloved Gjallarhorn. Here is the math. (correct me if i'm wrong my numbers may be off.) (all numbers were recorded from the boss Taniks, im not sure if damage varies from boss to boss, but if it does numbers should still be similar.) Gjallarhorn - 7 rockets Base rocket damage - 3148 total damage of all wolfpack rounds combined(12 wolfpack)- 3504 total damage of one rocket (including wolfpack) - 6652 total damage of one clip (2 rockets) - 13304 total damage of a max heavy Gjallarhorn (7 rockets) - 46564 Thunderlord - 181 shots damage per bullet - 365 total damage of one clip(field scout) - 21900 total damage of a max heavy Thunderlord (181 bullets) - 66065 So now we know that a max heavy Thunderlord does more damage than the gjallarhorn, but what about dps? Gjallarhorn - time per clip including reload 4 seconds ( 2 rockets per 4 seconds) number of clips (4) in a little bit more than 15 seconds the Gjallarhorn can dish out 46564 damage Thunderlord - time per clip including reload 10 seconds (field scout + lightning rounds) 10 seconds ( 60 bullets per 10 seconds) number of clips (round to 3) in a little bit more than 30 seconds the Thunderlord can dish out 66065 damage. So yes the Gjallarhorn has a higher dps than the Thunderlord, BUT i need to further investigate the Gjallarhorn vs. Thunderlord to calculate boss kill times (using full heavy then switch to same primary.) I will also calculate synthesis usage and see if 2 full heavy of ghorn can take down a boss(if it cant i feel thunder lord will be better.) But like i said before i will have to calculate the time it takes to kill a boss using all heavy then switching to an alternative and see wether the Thunderlord or Gjallarhorn takes down bosses faster. As of right now i can still not tell witch will be the better choice. Please bump so others can join us on our voyage to find the superior heavy! :) [b]EDIT:[/b] I went and tested this on various Dragon strikes and came to find getting precision shots consistently with the thunder actually isn't a problem AT ALL. Now yes not all of my shots were crits, but atleast 95% of them were. [b]EDIT:[/b] go to my Xbox live account and watch my recent clip of you want to see 95% crit accuracy. Wasn't the best clip, but I'm busy maxing SGA so I don't have the time
