  • Fatebringer looks crappy compared to word of crota . Word of crota does more dps then fate bringer . Only reason fate still good because of the arc if word had arc it be a differ story .

    • Bump. No contest. The only haters are because they don't have one or they just hate everything for the sake of hating. And when you can level it to 365 it will truly be the one handgun to rule them all. FB is life.

          • I do think it's the best PvE hand cannon there is. But in PvP there are lots of other choices. My Devil You Know, with Zen Moment and Third Eye is amazing. I don't think there is a cure all for every situation in the game. Some weapons perform better in certain situations than other.

          • Lord High Fixer. The Devil You Know. Red Hand (insert Roman numeral amount here). All of these guns' passive stats (Range/Stability/Reload) are very similar and if not, better than the Fatebringer's- and if you get the right Perks, then the guns [i]are[/i] better. Fatebringer just has Arc damage over them.

            • It's the best hand cannon. Hands...down. Vex and bad juju and the most fun for me. And I wouldn't be using FB in pvp over my vex...

            • Honestly I can't wait to upgrade The Devil You Know. I'm glad I decided to keep TDYK in the vault all this time. Anyone else remember this gun and plan to upgrade it to 365?

                Nope, there are quite a few better ones. Fatebringer is handy for certain situations and for Arc Burn, but a real hand cannon aficionado would rather use something with more punch and precision. Better examples of legendary hand cannons follow: Lord High Fixer (my personal favorite) The Devil You Know Red Hand IX Timur's Lash Venation III There's probably others, and which of the aforementioned you prefer will depend on your playstyle and the perks on a given weapon, but I maintain than any and all of these are better than Fatebringer. If you think Fatebringer is the best legendary hand cannon, then you aren't a true hand cannon aficionado. None of this is to say that Fatebringer is not a great gun, but as for hand cannons, I'd much rather use any of the above, unless I'm doing an Arc Burn nightfall.

              • No, I will settle this, once and for all. Fatebringer is an average hand cannon, used by guardians whose precision typically falls between 30%-40%. They are not natural hand cannon users, and rely on the firefly perk, to keep themselves competitive. Rewatch Professor Borman in the Prison of Elders reveal, and observe how he uses Fatebringer. His precision is higher than most who use that weapon, but he still suffers from the same afflictions, that all Fatebringer users suffer, namely poor gun skills, and that constant search for the one great 'cluster kill'.

                • The only good thing about it is the arc burn.

                      I'll give you this one, as I love my Fatebringer. But, a strong case could also be made for Vision of Confluence. Edit: now that the title has changed to hand cannons, Fatebringer stands alone. Amongst all legendaries though, it's tied with VoC.
