Guerrilla a Fighter is the most useless perk in destiny. I was really disappointed when I got it on my Longbow. But since I got it, I decided to give it a try...
Results?
The behind cover mechanism hardly even works. 90% of the time you end up just aiming at the piece of cover you're crouching behind instead of popping out to activate the perk. There are also hardly any places in the game where it allows you to use this mechanism.
I think it should be removed from the game. Opinions?
Edit: Here's a link to a post that someone else wrote on Reddit discussing the usefulness of this perk

Edited by ChillyPaper074: 9/11/2016 11:38:19 AMYou need to look up a little for the cover mechanic to activate. (yes, otherwise you will just get a closer look at the cover - e.g. back of a wall).

I like the perk a lot. It encourages and rewards tactical shooting and intelligent use of terrain. Sure, you could just run in and gun them down; rely on your quality equipment, perk setup, and superior thumb skill to win the day. -Or you could opt for a team approach, coordinate sightlines and team shoot the opponent. Both are very effective strategies. Or, if you want to be more careful and methodical in your approach to the engagement, you could opt to hang in cover and fire on enemies caught out in the open or suppress enemy activity along movement routes or sniper lanes. If that's an avenue that appeals to you, then this perk is going to be your bread and butter. I get that the Guerrilla Fighter perk isn't your cup of tea, and that's well and good. Destiny is a diverse game, there are going to be parts that just don't interest people. In the same way that everyone knows of that one exotic that they feel is just trash, or the one weapon type that simply doesn't interest them, perks are the same way. What doesn't appeal to you might be the roll that a different style of player is grinding for. I understand that you don't find Guerrilla Fighter appealing, but I think that removing it from the game is unwarranted.

The effect of the perk is contradicting to the name of the perk itself. Guerilla Fighter = Small unit Hit and Run Tactics The effects should have been "This weapon has increase accuracy, handling, and damage resistance when with two or more fireteam" It will feel like "Last resort" perk but active when with a fireteam not when you are the last guardian standing

3 RepliesMost useless perk in the game is the one on gunslinger that says throwing knife kills extend the duration of your golden gun! If I'm gonna throw a knife at you, why not just shoot you with the golden gun?!

12 RepliesKinda off-topic, but has anyone used that perk Take A Knee? If so, is it useful at all?

So long as Icarus is a thing, they won't care.

Edited by $hirtless Captain Kirk: 5/15/2016 7:53:22 PMYou have to actually be in cover.[b] The game actually has a cover system that few know about.[/b] Find a box. Crouch behind it. Without standing up, aim down sights and you'll poke your head over the box and the perk will activate. A PVP place to try it: Twilight Gap. That side where everyone spawn snipes. The A side. There is a little protruding bridge that kind of points to the B capture point. It has rusty looking grates on it. Try it by those grates. It's an undercover system that few exploit. Keep that perk I say
-
Also those perks that require you to be revived so actually be useful. Or the ones that require you to take damage or require your fireteam to be dead...
-
It's like the devs thought [i]"Quick we need one more perk so we can get to work, it'll be a throwaway because we already got the ones that matter in..."[/i].
-
It doesn't even let you know when it's in effect. Bungie either rid of it or make it something that a guardian would actually find to be useful. At the moment it's such a pointless perk that encourages camping.
-
I honestly don't know why they even have that perk in the game. This isn't a cover based shooter. It's not Gears of War. There's almost no cover anywhere

132 RepliesEdited by LoKkingRequiem: 5/15/2016 11:51:02 AMLet's be honest who wants the following: Guerilla Fighter Danger Close Surrounded Eye Of the Storm Exhumed Underdog Partial Refund (Maybe) Vacuum I only consider these perks shit because it's too situational and the requirements to proc is horrible and there are other perks that is worth more of a slot(Triple Tap etc) At least make them better and when I mean the reqs are bad I mean the fact that you have to be low health or dead for the perk to proc which is the last thing you want and enchance the req for Guerilla fighter and I think these perks could be good but not as long as if they are not as good as the top tier AKA God rolls Make these perks more viable AKA not alot
