Not sure if anyone has tried this yet, but the Stranger's Rifle you obtain from completing the campaign, post 1.1.1 patch, is now a frickin BEAST! xD
Two bursts will drop people with ease in standard PvP. I was having an absolute blast with it now that it has been tuned up to an awesome degree. I even had poor vex users on the run (and even got some hate messages at the end of a couple of rounds LOL).
Now if Bungie can just fix the host-lag issues, the Crucible would actually be my immediate go-to game type ;-)
-
Yeah - broke three down and never even fired a shot with it. Always the way with destiny though. This is why I'm saving my no land beyond and necro. When you finally give up hope and break it down. They buff it!!
-
Now they made pulse rifles OP. They need to give up and move on to PvE.
-
I forgot about that thing. I'm dusting mine off when I get home. I haven't had a hate message in a while.

Edited by Darches: 3/6/2015 2:44:43 AM[b]IT BEAT MY MACHINE GUN.[/b] We both opened fire at the exact same time, and I was using the epic Deviant Gravity. Since the Vex got nerfed by accident, it's probably better than that too. Bungie needs to fix their blam.
-
Why tell people about the gun
-
I have a fully upgraded Stranger's Rifle and a Bad Juju, and in Crucible at least where level advantages are disabled, it's by far the better choice (not to mention, Juju has a design flaw with its featured perk, String of Curses). When it comes to Iron Banner, I definitely would use something else though than the Stranger's Rifle because it's fully upgraded damage is only 215.

Heck I did well with the oversoul edict pulse last night was killing everything
-
Lol. I remember the day I deleted all 3 of my Strangers rifles saying "these were cool for 3 days after I beat the campaign but I'll never use this cap again" Now I'm wishing I had kept at least one of them. It's OK though. I have a beastly 3 little words, juju, OE and a rare PR called Starfire protocol All of these are kicking as in the crucible right now.
-
Yeah, Strangers Rifle outgun a -blam!-ing Exotic Suros that people get after months of grinding, but Strangers Rifle can get any -blam!-ing scrub on day 1. The stupidity and the design path of this Patch is a good waypoint of the future of this game.
-
I wish I could get it back :/
-
This is true. Each hit from the SR has more impact than from the Suros Regime and it fires all three in fast succession so they usually all land on target which means this blue weapon everyone gets from the get go has more dps than the once coveted *EXOTIC* Suros Regime. Still, its not a match for the likes of Hawkmoon and Thorn, which by the way everyone that has them is using right now.
-
Yeah it's dope now Easily my favorite part of this update. Pre patch it was really good. Now it is legend.
-
This makes me want to start a new character now.
-
I've got two still maxed. Only pulse I have. May give it a try!
-
Hmm, I might level up my storage Titan to get that rifle back lol.
