Best Weapon for Thrall?

I'm wanting to know a good weapon for mowing down thrall? Fully auto: spray and pray? Or precision scout with firefly? I would assume it's Fatebringer. But I'm out of luck there :[. Just was hoping for a 'for sure' weapon that'll keep them off of me.

  • Usually well placed fusion rifle shots can take 2-3 out with a fast reload and well placed grenades. No problems.

  • Until I get the Fare Bringer any Scout Rifle with the Firefly perk will do for now!!!!

    It's called "Bladedancer." Less of a weapon; more about class *rimshot* All kidding aside, the [i]Bladedancer[/i] super with area damage perk take thrall down like mowing the lawn. I've taken down over a dozen in one trigger pull with that. The hunter arc grenade is very effective as well. For guns, stick with high ROF for close encounters--a good autorifle with a huge mag or heavy machine gun. Shoot in bursts, don't hold down the trigger. Avoid shotguns and Fusion Rifles. Always aim at the highest threat (usually the closest). The most important thing? Engage in an area you can retreat in walking backwards by memory. Not doing this is what will get you Ganked. Long range? Anything works. Note of caution: TLW is a great gun, but not for a pack of thrall bearing down on you.

  • THORN or HARDLIGHT... I'm addicted to my Thorn, but if I didn't use that as my primary mostly, HARDLIGHT would be my second choice

  • Hard light and fatebringer. Hard light rounds can stagger whole groups plus they overpenetrate for multikills. Fb cause its fkin boss. Exploding heads ftw

  • Bad juju is awesome for thrall mobs. The string of curses perk reloads the weapon instantly upon kill, so you can just keep firing and mow down the whole mob. If the thrall close distance the other perk on it gives it better accuracy when firing from the hip so you just stop aiming down sights and its effective range drops down to hand cannon-ish kind of distances. Keep a shotgun in your secondary and a machine gun in your heavy and you'll decimate thrall mobs.

  • I use fatebringer and recently Montecarlo/hardlight. Fatebringer with firefly(precision kills make enemies explode) and outlaw(precision kills increase reload speed) is a beast! The extra rounds and fire rate of the two auto rifles are good also. Also, I have buddies who use the vex, I've tried it but prefer fatebringer

  • Hard Light. It melts them with the volatile light perk. The bullets don't stop at the first in line, they keep on going.

  • Fatebringer fa sho. Although I'm currently trying to get accustomed to bad juju on higher levels, it's okay, but I definitely prefer the impact of a hand cannon.

  • Vex mytho, Suros is good... Any hand cannon can do the trick. I do [i]not[/i] recommend scout rifles during the first part of CE. They are utterly useless (unless you think you can pull it off. Then go ahead.)

    • Ice breaker is good for no scope crowd control when going through abyss. Murmur works pretty well taking out thrall too. Especially with it maxed

      • Although I don't ever really use it now the Bad Juju is quite good for thrall as it reloads instantly when you kill each one. Pretty fun for thralls but that's about it
