Warlocks have no exotic buffing specific weapon type

Why are warlocks the only class with no exotic that buffs a type of weapon? Peacekeepers and mechaneers tricksleeves for titans and hunter respectively max out handling of smgs and sidearms and add other benefits. It would be cool if we also had an exotic like that, but I'm guessing it's never going to happen. The only thing kinda similar are the rain of fire exotic boots but the only primary weapon which it affects is the vex mythoclast...

  • Ophidian aspect.. Buffs all weapons by 50 handling and 50 reload and gives more melee range. And you have rain of fire for fusions. Think before you type.

  • [i]Sees someone else finally saying what ive been saying[/i] [spoiler]Knows the incoming hate[/spoiler] Best you have is Tranversive Steps, which is like a slower Hunter-dodge reload. That's what we get and call it balance. Now get ready for the Hunters' hate, Witherhoard spams will be involved

    • Rain of Fire and Vex Mythoclast would like to disagree here lol. That said, Ophidian Aspect is what we Warlocks have that max out handling and that's for ALL weapons, not just a specific weapon type. Put together a nice little bow swap build using Ophidian that won me most 1v1's for a while, but then everyone wised up and stick with teammates and it wasn't useful anymore lol.

Can’t really think of any other than fits their identity. Maybe a glaive, but that seems more hunter focused to me.

        And how many people do you see running these exotics? Very few. They’re just too specific to be very useful. Besides, you have ophidian, rain of fire, and necrotic grip (which is a straight buff to thorn and osteo).

          • They got those exotic legs which buff fusions and linear fusions. Honestly most of the weapon buffing exotics suck. Mechaneers requires you to be nearly dead to proc the damage buff, oath keepers are only good for pvp, actium is very niche, peace keepers are fun but niche as well.

              • I’m assuming it’s because you guys have Ophidian Aspect which buffs all weapons.
