So I am a huge fan of the reforging of the new vendor weapons. But for all the people who want to save time having to look at every vendor to see who has the best stuff I have done the leg work for you! First off this is my own opinion but I will try to be objective and base this entirely on stats. Auto Rifles: So from what I found, the Vanguard's [b]Pest Control Matrix[/b] is the best pvp auto rifle being sold. It is almost the same as the Vanquisher VII stat wise with a little less reload and stability. Role the perks right though and the extra 5 on the mag could make all the difference! Rocket Launchers: Rejoice guardians! Days of no one having good rockets on Hard Crota are over! Or at least they should be! [b]The Admonisher III[/b] sold by New Monarchy is not only fantastic stat wise, but comes spray and play AND tracking! Now you might still want to reforge it to get more in the mag or more velocity, but it's a good start. Shotguns: Now the shotgun seletion is not as good now as it was in the Dark Below era, but the Dead Orbit [b]Rude Awakening DOA[/b] has some pretty good range and fire rate. It starts out with range finder and the new perk reinforced barrel which gives it nice range for pvp. Fusion Rifles: There are several fusion rifles out there but none really stand out. Dead Orbit's [b]Final Rest II[/b] has one of the best range, charge rate, and impact combos of the bunch tho. Trust me, I am a fusion rifle nut! It's default perks kind of suck but yay reforging is here so try it out. Hand Cannons: Now I am not that big of a hand cannon expert but I have hawkmoon, fatebringer, and etc. My basis on this was comparing stats to my fatebringer since it too is a legendary. That left us with an almost virtual tie between the Future War Cult's [b]The Fulcrum[/b] and New Monarchy's [b]Red Hand IX[/b]. Both have the same impact as fatebringer and can be reforge to get similar stats in reload, stability, and range. The only major draw backs are Red Hand's 10 in the mag and Fulcrum's 8. Pulse Rifles: As far as pulse rifles go, it is hard to find a replacement for Oversoul Edict, but we must try! The Vanguard's [b]55A-ALLFATE[/b] is the best we can do. It has ok impact, fire rate, and a mag ssize over 25. The base stability is pretty high too so try and reforge one with full auto! Heavy Machine Guns: Like we had with the hand cannons we have two choices in low magazine but good precision machine guns. New Monarchy's [b]Pacifier X[/b] could do the job will if you can role rodeo and field scout, or you can try for similar perks on Dead Orbit's [b]Arma Engine DOA[/b]. Sniper Rifles: Unfortunately this time the tower has a pretty unspectacular selection of sniper rifles. I really can't recommend any of them to replace any old snipers you might have. None of them have Black Hammer impact but some look cool. If you want a brand new sniper design check out New Monarchy's [b]Violator XII[/b] and if you want a somewhat crappy sniper but it has crazy defualt perks for stability check out Future War Cult's [b]The Chosen[/b]. That is all I got folks! Hope this helps you out and best of luck with reforging! The gunsmith will have more motes than the speaker could ever dream of! Haha P.S. Prison of Elders weapon drops could give some good choices that are also reforgable. These are only tower vendor weapons.
