I realize this isn't news to some people, but for those who don't already know (and i know many don't because i'm constantly telling my raid groups about this), running the lamp section with icebreaker is a HUGE help. You can turn around and no scope/quick scope into the crowd of thrall and it will destroy most if not all of them, not to mention you get the +2 Agility. Give it a try.
Edit:
MIDA sounds like another great weapon to use for this. Unfortunately though, i do not have that gun. So i can't try it out. :(
-
Mida for solo. IB for teams.
-
yea, i used ice breaker till i leveld MIDA.
-
Yes i agree, it is my go to weapon for the lamps.
-
I never actually run icebreaker on abyss/ lamps. My hunter just bladedances through the whole thin and uses gjally on the ogre. So I have gjally and Fatebringer on him. My warlock just spams nova bombs so I run Bad juju to keep my super up, black hammer for ogres, and hunger for ogres as well. And my Titan just does the cheese jump with the MIDA and places bubble on the Rock and waits.
-
Mida is crazy. At 5-7 weight you can still sprint and 10 you can walk faster than the majority of the thralls.
-
Bad Juju destroys on this part of the raid.
-
MIDA is good, best part is I got it from the abyss chest before that patch.

MIDA is good but I like my IB and scout with explosive ammo setup. All the explosions make it pretty easy as you can actually stop at lights without worrying about the huge group of thrall following you.
-
Mida + bladedancer hunter + don't touch me's = you can't touch this ;)
-
MIDA, you won't even need to fire your weapon. Icebreaker, you'll almost get yourself killed at several occasions because you become a bit too greedy killing things. Yes because it's genuine pleasant to see 10-15 Thralls blow up in a firey explosion (enough to drop your framerate)
-
Running MIDA with my Hunter makes me feel like Usain Bolt.
-
Mid is for people that don't like helping teammates
-
Fatebringer
-
Any weapon with firefly does this. Icebreaker is not special in this case. I swear people think it's the best idea ever and you just don't know how to find and/or get weapons with good perks.
-
Yes it is very helpful
-
Uh, no? I'll use literally any weapon except a sniper rifle with +2 agility. SUROS, VEX, Necrochasm and MIDA are way better choices for the abyss.
-
I use Thunderlord. Run n gun. The hidden firefly perk helps... plus 60 rounds with field scout! 😉
-
I like running my mida and a legendary shotty that has the +2. Turn around blast 6 rounds off with the shotgun then switch back to mida and outrun everything.
-
Fatebringer with IB is a GREAT combo for this part of the raid
-
Fatebringer is the gun to go with. The firefly literally tears apart all the thrall. Not to mention that the outlaw perks helps quite a bit.
-
Ice breaker is beast in the lamps that's all I use in there
-
Not mida. No firefly.
-
Try mida. You will never use icebreaker again
-
Ice breaker's explosion on a body shot is significantly smaller than firefly explosions. Fatebringer is the best gun for the abyss (unless you're confident you can get consistent head shots with the ice breaker)
-
The vog hand cannon helps out too
