It's an exotic heavy that if properly buffed could have potential. Why hasn't it been brought up to par with other heavy weapons? It's just collecting dust in most players vaults.
Leviathans Breath should be a dps beast in my opinion.

I take this bad boy into non legendary lost sectors and public events. I must say….. it absolutely slaps.

Agreed. Initially it was great, but it does not do a lot of damage or work well in lost sectors as it should. It needs more arrows and to be a faster draw.

2 RepliesEdited by Daemon White: 10/8/2022 11:58:13 PMLeviathan is in an interesting place for DPS. Most weapons tend to start strong and trail off as you keep firing mostly due to reload speeds. Xenophage for example (I ran on Kalli): On it's own, that first 13 shots is 22.8k DPS. After the reload you drop to 17.5k and now you're out of bullets. 26 shots within 15.6 seconds unbuffed. I think it holds 28, I accidentally saved the wrong damage clip and have to redo it. Leviathan's Breath held a steady 15.5k and slightly increased to 16k in that same amount of time and still had arrows leftover. 8 shots within 15.6 seconds, but you still have 7 more since it holds 15. So it could definitely use a buff, BUT, it also holds steady in longer DPS phases or if ammo is scarce. ...I have not yet done DPS testing with linear fusions yet (Just working on heavy exotics atm), so information still being gathered. As for "But what about X boss?" I find that damage tends to remain relative amongst same-class enemies. It might go up or down, but the Damage remains the same relative to each gun. For example: Templar takes 2.271x more damage than Kalli and it's consistent with every gun since Templar is also a Raid Boss enemy.

1 ReplyI hope is does get a buff. With Divinity out of the picture now, getting crits constantly will be tougher, and in turn should be more rewarding. Damage should be a slight buff. I see Levi as a great balance between burst damage and total damage. The performance will boil down to the user. 25 Arrows is sufficient, before someone opens their mouth, that's the hard cap on Linears, don't try it. 5-10% damage increase, 25 arrows, perfect.

It would be great if it could be used as a machine gun.

Give it Firing Line and more arrows. Something to beef it up.

1 ReplyIt's great for unstopabbles, but nothing else. It does terrible damage as a heavy in general, it's insanely slow and it's got too few arrows. I love bows, I would love to use it more, but you just have to go for rocket launchers or linears in that slot.

1 ReplyIt's a shame because it's a fun weapon to use but not viable for any endgame content. Bump.

3 RepliesEdited by VEXTERMINATOR-btd203: 10/8/2022 8:53:50 PMI've noticed this is getting dislikes. Do players really think Leviathans Breath in it current state is good for anything other than Unstoppable Champions? I'm seriously curious.

Doesn't it have like the same damage as a rocket?
