Heat Rises was buffed in patch 1.1.4. It now provides a 16% cooldown to your grenade and melee abilities when getting kills from the air.
In this video I showed how you can use a lightweight frame grenade launcher and an smg to take advantage of this perk.
Stun your opponent with the grenade launcher, jump, and finish your opponent from the air with your SMG.
This can work with a hand cannon as well, but I recommend choosing a hand cannon with a good handling stat, such as Dire Promise or Jack Queen King 3.
I also prefer using the Orewing’s Maul grenade launcher because of the auto-loading holster perk. This boring perk surprisingly is the best option (go figure) and has saved my butt so many times.
Quick Tips:
1. Aiming down sight with your grenade launcher lets you detonate it slightly earlier
2. Don’t let the 16% cooldown buff from heat rises turn you off. Its extremely valuable. I’ve even received messages from people asking how I get my grenade back so fast...
3. Smg’s, Hand Cannons, and explosive weapons are the best options to take advantage of the heat rises perk. Trace rifles can be good too if you practice with them since the have perfect in air accuracy.

Are you like this with every game you play? I bet you’re just plain scary in monopoly

How viable would you say trace rifles are? Hand cannons aren’t my thing, but sidearms and SMGs have a pretty low range. I could get out the Lens again if it’s any good.

It's easily one of the best perks for pve in the game currently and if you pair that with sunbracers everything will burn! It's also good to note that using your grenade or melee to get kills in the air also grants energy. The easiest thing to do for things like raids is to just throw stuff or shoot while jumping but not gliding.

1 ReplyIt’s pretty fun with the antiope, masterwork it for reload speed and add reload mod to the gloves, and you can activate kill clip from the air and decimate. I haven’t tried PVP because being in the air has always gotten me dead quick, but in PVE it’s fun as hell.
