Genesis chain is way overrated imo. The firefly perk is nice during WoTM but the stability sucks too bad for me. I got an answering chord w/Hammer forged and focus fire, much easier to keep on target and the range is great.

Well it has the lowest aka best time to kill of all legendary auto rifles, so there's that. Firefly is just icing on top of the HCR cake.

All crit shots? Maybe some people are good with autos like that but I doubt most are. Stability is my #1 concern with ARs, ttk doesn't really matter if you can't consistently string together headshots. Just my opinion for my style of play, it's not a bad weapon in the least. But for me there are far better AR options.

See for yourself: https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/4fops1/mercules_massive_breakdown_weapon_stats/ Genesis chain: 5crit 1 body = optimal ttk of . 83sec Answering Chord: 6crit 2 body = optimal ttk of .93sec All body shot ttk times are similarly skewed.

I think I prefer the chord too. Thing is so damn nice to use
