I really liked the concept of the initial exotic, but those changes in the TWAB would make it really feel like an exotic I'd want. Bump if you agree?

This gun NEEDS some love. Early in the game, players are offered 3 free Exotics - Riskrunner, which is a great crowd-control weapon against Fallen, Hive, Taken, and certain Cabal, as well as having the interesting ability to melt Vex if you don't mind stepping in some milk to proc the perk; Sunshot, which is a great crowd-control weapon against all minor infantry and is just fun to use; and Graviton Lance, which I used for about 5 minutes and threw in the Vault where it's been since Day 2. It looks cool (especially with the latest ornament!), but in its present state it feels like it should've been a Scout - instead, it trickles a little pee down its leg before landing the one decent hit, behaving somewhere between a weak Pulse and a not-very-sharp Scout without the benefits of either, and I simply haven't been able to justify taking up an Exotic slot (even if I'm not using any other Exotics) for a gun I really hoped would be as useful and fun as its siblings. My Voidwalker is really hoping Graviton Lance becomes worth using, she's been pestering me for a Black Hole gun for a while now and wasn't super thrilled with the original prototype...the void Nergal kept her happy for a while, but she's been itching to blow things up.

2 RespuestasLet's hope it's as good as it sounds. I hope Fighting Lion gets another buff again. I love that exotic. Sturm too.

Yeah the changes sound exciting, I'm guessing that the mathematical advantage will be that it's a 2 round burst instead of 3, making the precision grouping easier. It could also mean the overall fire rate could speed up because of a quicker 2 round burst compared to the standard 3? I'm eager to see what they do.

1 RespuestaI recently took this out of my vault just to get a feel for it. Yup, needs some serious attention. Bad recoil, terrible damage output...used it on a couple of Strikes and not a single enemy was damaged by the Voidsplosion either. Which sucks because I really like this exotic.

[b]BUMP[/b] Can't wait to try it and the other buffed exotics out.
-
Bump for sure. I like the changes they've talked about.
-
Bump. Graviton lance is cool, and I use it once in a while just for the fun factor, but I'm glad they are working to actually make it useful.
-
I completely agree. I just don't want to see it become the clear choice winner of what exotic to equip, so I hope that the buffs to other exotics are equally exotic.
-
I just hope all the exotics, armor included, that are currently useless get a huge buff.
-
I had a few games where I used it to get my void kills but it is pretty lackluster. I'm hoping when they say "mathematically, it will be better than the other pulse rifles" they aren't talking about being better than Vigilance Wing...But I would love to have a good exotic pulse rifle in my energy slot to change up load out. Keep things fresh.

Agreed wholeheartedly. The graviton lance is a big piece of monkey poo right now. I hope it plays well, because it has a great concept.
