Ruin Wings vs. Armamentarium?
Does someone think that Ruin Wings could be a better piece than the Armamentarium?
The perks seem to be somewhat in the same direction. RW reloads special weapons more quickly, while Arma´gives me more ammo for them. RW increases heavy drop rate & rounds per pack, and Arma´, again, lets me carry more ammo from the start.
Arma´takes longer to fully upgrade, but gives me that extra grenade.
Personally, I would prefer to go with Armamentarium, but it seems Xur forgot the upgrade pack for that piece at whatever dark pit full of tentacles he calls home. But what do you guys think?

I got the ruin wings from a legendary engram and i freaked out _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ PSN tiddypeep Feel free to add me i need more people to do the raids
-
Out of these two I go with Ruin wings, but helm of the saint is still my favorite

Edited by AsylumxX: 12/24/2014 8:50:20 AMRuin wings + corrective measure is kind of a godsend for the crota fight. Armamentarium for everything else... Once i get the updated helm of saint 14 though it's game over for both those pieces lol.
-
I prefer the arma to ruin wings just because it gives additional special and heavy ammo and an additional grenade which is amazing!
-
Arma for Pvp and ruin for pve
-
Well I am stuck I have both and i don't have the raid boots just don't know what to use
-
I feel stupid i didnt bougjt them last week i dont even know of i Wanna swap iT for helm of saint14

I say ruin wings. Arma is amazing, I used it since week 2 or 3 when I pulled it from an exotic engram from xur, and upgraded to 2.0 when DLC released. That second grenade is incredibly useful. And +special and heavy ammo too? Awesome. But ruin wings are just godly. My machine gun with field scout holds 296 rounds total. Arma ups that to an amazing 301 (WTF?!?) but I've seen ammo drops of 70-99. Ruin wings I lose those 5 shots (seriously, 5 shots for +heavy ammo?) but the drops I've seen are 170-190 rounds each, not to mention they're everywhere. Haven't tried with ghorn yet, want raid boots with +heavy ammo first, but I can only imagine the number of rockets that drop. Next problem is the only raid gear I've gotten so far is the gloves, so yeah. Fun times...
-
Both situational, gotta <3 double flash nade in PvE or PvP ;) but the amount of heavy drops from wings is a win so both are awesome.
-
I use armamentarium of I'm using a heavy with surplus ammo perk and ruin wings if I'm not.
-
4 RepliesI actually just made a post about this. I'm literally using GHORN as a primary in roc strikes. And during that time you might run out of heavy ammo, a couple of fusion kills (special kills=more chance of heavy dropping) and your back in blow man's land

Edited by EmptyFiber: 12/22/2014 6:24:28 PMWings for pve and arm for pvp. Edit: You missed week one of upgrades. He offered Arm upgrades first week.
-
IMO I like the ruin wings better just bc they look better but both are very good.
-
Heavy ammo all the way. I have both and i use ruin wings more now.
-
What would you chose if The Glasshouse was added to the list?
-
He sold arma upgrade the week the dlc dropped. I know this because I snagged that shiz
-
Heavy machine gun with Ruin Wings seems like a primary at times lol
-
Ruin wings are definitely better. Armamentarium: 1 extra rocket (x number extra mg rounds) and 1 extra grenade Ruin wings: 50% more heavy ammo per pack plus much higher chance to find heavy ammo packs. In other words, slightly more max ammo vs much more ammo overall. Easy choice if you ask me

3 RepliesIf you have gjallahorn and arn't using ruin wings I don't want to speak to you. That combination has made this game a joke for me. Boss isn't dead in seven gjallahorn shots? don't worry there's 12 more lying on the ground in front of you. All I do anymore is go into a room fire 1-4 gjallarhorns, clean the rest up with fatebringer, refill my heavy ammo and walk to the next room. Add on weapons of light and you can sleep while you raid.

1 ReplyThe armamentarium was upgradable the first week Xur upgrades were introduced
-
He had the upgrade pack the first werk after the dlc
-
I'm finding that with armamentarium, I tend to hang on to heavy ammo until the end of a level/strike/raid section. Now having all that heavy ammo at the end is great, I think my ruin wings come in a little more handy. With them, I tend to use my heavy throughout a level/strike/raid section, knowing more is on the way, and typically am still well stocked at the end. I do miss my extra 'nade /tear
-
Ruin Wings + Gjallarhorn = Apocalypse
-
2 RepliesArmentarium. Bonuses are guaranteed. Ruin wings you have to hope you find heavy ammo. Not always guaranteed.
-
Raid boots = more heavy ammo If I get Gally then I'll bust out ruin wings Until then I have to see if I get raid boots or helmet first If helmet I gotta upgrade exotic chest If boots gotta upgrade exotic helm
-
Wings perk doesn't work. I get more heavy ammo with them off
