Ticks do 100 damage. Wolf Clusters do 200 and track. This is 307 breath vs 300 gallahorn.
No enemy is gonna also just sit there and take the full ticks off nova as well. As the Solar Flare does not last very long either.
Either increase duration or damage on ticks (as nobody will sit there and take the full duration or trash will die in the first rocket)
IMO the solar flare duration should be a lot longer as damage is not on par vs wolfclusters and no enemy will willingly run into the flare and take the full ticks anyways
[b]*Addendum 1[/b]
I want it to have different purpose and not be another gallajorn obviously, but it's simply not justifiably usefull outside of luls.
the solar flare doesnt last long, has crap radius and no enemy is just gonna stand inside it like a dumbass as the A.I - (seen from cheesing) is made to walk away from it every time. If duration last longer it would be a cool reason to use it for flanking enemy's or holding enemy's in place. This is not a solid option due to duration.
If it's not gonna have tracking then the velocity needs to be maxed - the solar flare needs to last longer, and the flare should ignite so (even 1% damage or low damage ticks as it can be a useful way to keep regen down) The prevention of Armour regen would be another solid option if ignited, but this does not happen either. Not an option at all.
[b]Addendum 2[/b] -
It also does Solar flare so it's it's not a viable alternate for weekly's if you have Gallajorn (Solar, Hunger of Crota, and Hezens Vegence)
If it had arc damage then it would be an okay alternate for weekly's burns. Not an option at all.
[b]Addendum 3 [/b]- Needs to work with Sunbreakers - cuz we need more gamechanging builds - Monte Carlo + Clawa of Amahkhara, Bad Juju + Obsidian Mind. Sunbreakers + Dragonbreath + perks please.
[b]Ammendment 4 on 1/8/2015[/b] - In lieu of ignite, tracking, proximity.... The rocket launcher could have Full Auto, Higher Fire Rate, and High Velocity with good stability (Now stability on rocket would matter lol) multiple Flares would actually be on the ground long enough at the same time to trap targets if needed. And would not be OP in crucible as it would eat ammo quickly if used improperly.

2 RepliesPairing Sun Breakers with Dragon's Breath would probably work. Will have to test
-
Overall they just need to add tracking and a better solar grenade effect
-
3 RepliesWhy can nobody on this forum spell Gjallarhorn?
-
I think the Truth is better.
-
No it just need the velocity jacked up
-
4 RepliesDragons breath is really good you just think that since it's exotic it needs tracking
-
I have mine fully upgraded and think it's pretty good. I don't have a Gjallarhorn, so it's a decent fallback option.
-
It would be cooler if it was like hezen-- the rocket exploded, 4 additional shells launch out, but then each additional shell leaves a solar flare. I think that would be neat. It might not be good either, but it has enough uniqueness to be exotic.

8 RepliesIf u think it sucks ur definetly using it wrong. Every exotic can be great, its how use them that defines the strength of the weapon, and you as a player. For instance its great for keeping a large number of ads (eg. Thralls) at a distance for a brief time, while you have time to refortify yourself, or gun them down with scout, pulse, or hand cannon weapons.
-
I bought it just because I think they'll tweak it. It's definitely underwhelming compared to other exotics. Looks really cool tho

1 ReplyIt needs tracking and fullauto added to the dragon breath perk then it would be a good alt to galla in pve

Edited by IIDREDDII: 1/8/2015 7:50:19 PMDragons Breath works pretty good as a defensive launcher and keeps enimies like Undying Mind at bay or in one spot so I think its a good launcher and I have the nee Gjallahorn maxed and the DB. BTW all of the Expansion One exotics are underwhelming so you know they will get buffed and maybe tracking might be a way that DB gets buffed.
-
2 RepliesThe db has a huge blast radius. By far the biggest in the game. All you need to do it get it near your enemy and bang your enemy is gone.

I just use it so I look like I'm pooping smoke as I walk.

1 ReplyIf all weapons are the best weapon no weapon will be the best weapon. Have you played borderlands? Not ever shotgun or pistol or rocket launcher is the same as other shotguns,pistols, or rocket launcher. I get that it's exotic but still not every exotic is gonna be as good as all others just look at hard light vs suros hahahahahah.

1 ReplyEdited by UnholyJanitor: 1/5/2015 4:08:55 PMIf you are going to use your exotic in the heavy slot go gjallahorn or go home. There is just no justification to use this inferior launcher.
