Hey Destiny community! It's your friendly neighborhood Roman here!
You might recall my [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/193514029/0/0]Arminius-D[/url] post? Anyway... it was mildly popular. It brought awareness to the community about the deadly significance of owning a high RoF auto rifle and offered many players the opportunity to melt guardians in the Crucible who weren't fortunate enough to get their hands on a Doctrine of Passing.
Well, I've got more good news. If you missed out on the Arminius-D, but are still looking for an excellent auto rifle, Banshee is selling the Häkke Zarinaea-D. For 2500 glimmer you can get your hands on the next best thing. I've offered a comparison of base stats to the Hakkon's Hatchet to give you an idea.
[b]Zarinaea-D[/b]

[b]Hakkon's Hatchet[/b]

Edited by SnazzySquid: 4/1/2016 6:49:28 PMThey may seem similar, but the Zarinaea-D is a Hakke, which means it only has 2 sight options, one of which will be a an iron sight. The muzzle flash on the Zarinaea-D is distracting, too. The other thing is that Haakon's Hatchet has an aim assist of 79, compared to the 60 of the Zarinaea-D. Haakon's Hatchet sticks like glue to a target and is far more comfortable during gun dancing. Haakon's can get Hidden Hand to further improve this, whereas Zarinaea-D and other Hakke's cannot. If you want a substitute for Haakon's Hatchet buy the vendor version of Dead Orbit's Paleocontact. Slightly lower range and aim assist, vastly better stability.

Gotta look at hidden stats (as counterintuitive as that sounds). All base stats are perk adjustable. Zarinea: Aim Assist: 60 Equip Speed: 40 Recoil Direction: 70 Haakon's Hatchet: AA: 79 ES: 80 RD: 50 I'm taking the Hatchet.

While these posts are great you are comparing paper stats... Not in game stats. Its like communism it looks good in theory but sucks in practice

Nice to see helpful posts around. Keep it up buddy. I'll probably go pick up the weapons you recommend and see what I think.

Thank you! The A-D this week come with very good perks!
