Black hammer
-
Thunderlord
-
icebreaker then corrective measure
-
Icebreaker or ghorn
-
Any type of sniper
-
Just whip out your big, black, hammer, and shove it up atheon's a**
-
I usually use Vision of Confluence/Atheons Epilogue, Ice Breaker and Harms Way
-
I always use Ice Breaker. If Atheon actually stays still and you have a good shot, Black Hammer is probably your best bet.

Edited by Afawafa: 3/28/2015 9:55:14 AMAssuming perfect accuracy, Black Hammer would deal the highest dps by a fairly significant margin. The next best contender would likely be any 331 damage machine gun with field scout. After that it's probably patience and time, but it's worth noting that it's easy to achieve higher damage potential with PnT due to the nice stability and generous aim assist. Edit: Wait, actually shotguns would probably have the best dps against Atheon. Unfortunately they're also probably the least practical weapons to use against him. Also, in terms of raw dps, Icebreaker is probably the 2nd worst legendary/exotic sniper to use against Atheon.

empty the Ice Breaker, empty the Deviant Gravity, go back to the Ice Breaker, leave
-
My go to setup is vision of confluence, icebreaker, and corrective measure
-
Black hammer takes 2 runs Thunder lord takes 1 run as long as everyone is focused
-
My setup is: Vision if Confluence/Mida Multi Tool Icebreaker/Black hammer Hunger of Crota. Does a significant amount of damage to him.
-
I dont think it really matters to much as long as everyone is hitting crits you can take him down in one relic I use ice breaker. I had a team today of ice breaker and one gally and we did in one relic
-
i have icebreaker... it owns... but i hear black hammer is boss...
-
The last word
-
Blackhammer
-
I use vision of confluence, icebreaker(best weapon in my opinion), and hunger of crota
-
Black Hammer. No arguments. Its fact.
-
Maxed Thunderlord with weapons of light is pretty tough to beat.
-
Hmm. Ice breaker or any LMG.
-
Thunderlord setup with field scout is pretty painful on ol Atheons stomach.
-
Black hammer with vision of confluence

Edited by Kryptekk Frost: 3/28/2015 11:54:12 PMI think anything that does void dmg. Right? Obviously high tier weapons tho.
-
Thunderlord or black hammer
-
Thunderlord and Black Hammer. I usually empty one clip of Thunderlord into Atheon (with Perfect Balance, Not Field Scout) then hit him with Black Hammer right after.
