This weapon (Vex Mythoclast) is still in my primary slot, therefore it is a primary weapon. I believe this should count towards the Primary Weapons bounty during Iron banner otherwise, it's contribution is being trimmed.
Note: I didn't come here to get flamed or bashed by other members, only posting something that should at least get an eye from the developers.

Edit - the section of the weekly update is as follows: [quote]Players have reported that some weapons do not count towards their Iron Banner “Focused Aggression” bounty. Please note that certain Exotic Primaries are still categorized as a Special weapon and will not count for the bounty requirements.[/quote] Hand cannon, Auto Rifle, Pulse Rifle, and Scout Rifle are the only weapon types that qualify for the bounty. https://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Update---02252015/en/News/News?aid=12607 [quote]"Focused Aggression" Bounty can now be completed with headshots from Pulse Rifles, Scout Rifles, and Hand Cannons[/quote] (note, this is in addition to auto rifle head shots)

Cons: doesnt count as primary, pro: easy to complete eris and vanguard bounty to kill multiple enemies w secondary weapon.
-
This weapon is categorized as a special weapon. You can use it to complete Eris bounty to kill 3 enemies rapidly 5 times with a special weapon as well as the Vanguard bounty to get double kills with a fusion rifle. Also, I believe Bungie released something stating that it does not count as a primary for bounties.
-
Well technically speaking it's a fusion rifle and classified as a secondary, even though it's in the primary spot.

There should be some clarification from Bungie, but that's the way it's meant to be. I believe the perk states that "this weapon can be equipped in the primary weapon slot," not necessarily that it is a primary weapon. I agree, it's stupid but that's how they designed it for the time being.
