This gun has no place. It can kill but shotguns are so much better, like it was cool at first but now its an average gun but...i will say i am looking forward too a heavy hitting one in the future, but for now the vestian (doesnt do nothing for me)<---expression for the people with an extra chromosome.

There will never be a heavy hitting one. That's what hand cannons are for. It's a low impact, high fire rate side arm. It's meant to provide another style of gunplay. Let's give it the impact of a hand cannon and see the forum overload from the 'this gun is OP' bullshit that will follow, except they will actually have a point for a change.

Goes great with a scout rifle
-
I like it, it shoots really fast and does major damage to fallen.
-
It keeps knobgoblins from armor locking.

Edited by jay p: 5/27/2015 1:57:53 PMIt's a pve gun, meant to be an alternative to fusion rifles. Fusions take a long charge, but do high damage in the mid range. Sidearms fire really fast, but relatively low damage in the mid range. Of course it doesn't compete with shotguns in CQC. That's like complaining that shotguns don't compete with sniper rifles in long range combat. It's the most versatile special weapon. Plus it suppresses a lot of abilities (hobgoblin shields, captains ports and shields, etc). Use it in the manner it was intended and you won't be as disappointed. I just wish I could get a void and solar one.

Learn how to aim in. I've cleaned up in PvP. Can usually beat most shotgun users from range.
-
The gun is great. I like it more than shotguns - it's got better range. I really want the exotic one as it appears to have better range, but in all likelihood I'll get Lord first cuz it looks so nasty.
-
I only use mine when I'm farming keys. Besides that I'd personally rather use a sniper. (depending on my primary)
-
Use it against hobgoblins they don't use their shield against the dynasty
-
So do green pulse rifles, but you don't see anyone complain that they're useless.

Double negative equals a positive

"Doesn't do nothing for me" hmm
-
I can shoot the vestian at 2 or 3 times the range of felwinter's. Taken out plenty of shotgun chargers in pvp with it.
-
The rate of fire on the Vestian is insane! I haven't played much PvP since wolves came out but as crappy as I am at it, Vestian easily takes out Thorners, Mythoclastians, Matadors, anybody!
-
I got it, used it a bit and thought meh. Haven't used it since. Shotguns and snipers so much better in all areas of the game.
-
Needs to have a range buff. Them it will fill a gap. Right now you have to be in shotgun range which makes it pointless to not just use a shotgun.
-
It does feel really redundant. It does eat red bar captains for breakfast. Honestly I use it on patrol just to grind Grimoir
-
I love the vest if specialist modifier is active..
-
Even tho it can destroy in arc nightfalls
-
Funny how they switched TLW's intended range with Dynasty's.
-
I felt like this, I don't see how it fits? If I want CQC then I'm going with a shotgun, and a fusion rifle is better at mid range. I don't see any time where the sidearms are tactically advantageous? What's the point in using them?
-
Fast arc damaging gu with decent range, shotguns do more damage, but the sidearm kills captains like a mofo. I try no to get to close to captains with a shotgun.
-
The gun's pretty good imo
-
SQUIRT GUN FOR THE WIN!!!!!!
-
It is at home on my Titan. It's my bubble weapon. Yes, a shotgun is superior on close quarters vs one target, but I have fists for that. When my bubble is swarmed, the Dynasty clears it out remarkably fast.
-
Its good for the exploding shanks on arc burn nightfall. Killing them with this keeps them from exploding. They just dissolve.
