Sleeper Simulant

I got my Sleeper Simulant the first time it came rolling around. Now it's 318; but I hear people calling it a disappointment? Can someone please tell me how 14,000 base damage and a 17,000 critical hit dmg is [i]disappointing[/i]?

  • I recently took mine to 320 and I can solo a taken zealot in one full ammo supply.

  • It is a fusion rifle technically... Another weapon to add to the list to nerf

    It has a charge rate, ricochet is disappointing and can kill you, the sound is underwhelming, and the quest was ridiculous.

    • It's just a disappointment because people hyped it up so much, expecting to go on a huge quest for it. Only to have it randomly show up in a quest that had only like 5 steps in it.

      • Snipers do more damage and they are specials.

        • It's all I equip for bosses (there are a couple I don't equip it for). Put mine to 320 the first chance I got, It's no Gjallarhorn but it's the closest thing to it for y2

        • I dont use in hm because it can potentially kill me with bounces, and takes my exotic slot

          They say it's a disappointment because they're dumb

            I love using it on Warpriest. If you have a defender Titan with weapons of light plus illuminated and a Nightstalker Hunter, my SS does 27k per crit shot. On Golgoroth it does 100k+ damage. I never use it on sisters because I have Touch of Malice. I also use it on the ogres when fighting oryx

            • I think of it as a golden gun. If you need a major dead really quick the sleeper will take it out in one shot most of the time. Outside of that, the only time I use it on bosses is if there's a solar burn modifier.

              • People were hyping it up to be the next ghally. They saw short clips of its use and jumped to conclusions. I saw through it though. Don't get me wrong, the gun still hits hard, but it is a fusion rifle which has gotten multiple nerfs. If you could tell me what you are hitting on golgoroth without WoL I could compare it to my 318 BS.

                I use mine on WP and strike/NF bosses. Melts them. 320 SS and 320 1k on WP? And I have two gear pieces that increase sniper reload speed? 2x the reload? Forget about it. Only time I use it though, but I did see it used on oryx for the kid who beat it on challenge mode with 1 other person. Only disappointing thing is IT HOLDS 9 BULLETS.

                • Because you have to be accurate with it probably. 12 ammo count when used with the right armour aswell

                • Black Spindle is better. But it is a thing to use when you don't have Spindle or Malice.

                  • I used it last week on a strike , absolutely amazing that gun is . I don't call it weak or a disappointment at all . The only thing the I get irritated with is the kick it has on it . Like I'll be bracing my thumbs for the recoil trying to center my camera and sometimes I'll move my thumbs too early and completely miss the shot .
