The weapons from this raid kinda make me scratch my head, other than the pulse rifle they all have worse stats or perks compared to their vog counterparts. I was excited about the scout rifle being 331 damage atleast but losing the autofire makes it alot harder for me to use (having to aim while rapid fire tapping is the game equivalent of rubbing your belly and tapping your head at the same time) and as if it wasnt bad enough losing firefly on the handcannon its impact is poop lower than fatebringer thus negating the higher damage.

1 ReplyEdited by lionkeeng: 1/24/2015 2:35:42 AMFatebringer absolutely reigns supreme. Just upgraded my WOC to 331, and it does a whopping 35 dmg increase to enemies!!! Seriously Bungie. IDK why i even bothered beating crota on HM when you give me a gun far inferior to one that dropped 4 months ago! WOC - Slow ass reload, small reserve clip (i'm constantly running out of ammo), and of course no firefly! Definitely NEEDS a BUFF!! or just buff my fatebringer to 331, You could have given it the same perk as black hammer and that would make it worth it, but adding a few more bullets to the clip...USELESS!

Edited by Shorty 1170: 1/24/2015 4:18:45 AMFatebringer has more impact and less RoF, how does this confuse people.

Edited by Purestrain: 1/24/2015 5:07:49 AMLOL LETS BELIEVE A GUY WHO HAS NO SCREEN SHOTS OR NUMBERS BUT SAYING IT DOES 10 LESS DMG. Fycking genius. Prolly hasn't even maxed out his word. Guess what, with words bonus you get far more bullets out of it than fate bringer. So even if it is only 10 more dmg you will get 5-6 more shots out of it than fate bringer which is a huge buff.

Still would be cool to have both and it's withy the grind
-
Some solid proof right there......
-
Not necessarily... You're just talking about damage. The perk can allow you to do several points more damage if you keep getting precision shots. They are both useful in their own way. I look forward to maxing out Word of Crota!

1 ReplyYess! Fatebrimger is life <3

4 RepliesLol headshots WI have fatebringer give me a 445 damage and with a not upgraded word of crota 576. How do you mean 10dmg difference
-
5 RepliesI have both weapons maxed. Woc's perks are useless and it barely does more damage than fate bringer because of the lower impact. Fate bringer is still the best legendary hand cannon even at 300 damage lol.

39 RepliesIn the crucible that's fine, but in PVE against targets over Lvl 32, you may as well bring a nerf pistol over Fatebringer.

They do not have the same stats, different impact, this comparision is worthless :/ sorry

4 RepliesI'm going to get that crucible scout rifle with outlaw and firefly and 331 and hope it's any good

1 ReplyEdited by Neutrill: 1/23/2015 7:00:41 PMWas this tested in hard raid? I feel like level 33 would be a big difference.

I need the fatebringer.....

11 RepliesIf the word of crota has the hive disruptive perk(more damage to majors) it'll beat the fatebringer in terms of raw power against yellow enemies
-
2 RepliesI am betting money on the fact that the guy who tested the two guns did not even upgrade Word of Crota to the 331 damage capacity. Thus even though all Fatebringer lovers want their gun to still be amazing it is in fact out classed by Word of Crota because of the increased damage capacity.

7 RepliesEdited by GhastlyGunter: 1/23/2015 5:07:03 PMNo, because it still does a bit more damage in pve and shoots way faster :/ that makes it a better weapon for crucible, at the very least Edit- I know FB will do more damage in crucible due to higher impact. But the DPS rate is higher on WOC.
-
Great test!!! [spoiler]total sarcasm[/spoiler]
-
And all there are still people whining that Fatebringer should be 331. Not that big of a deal.
-
A pro .... or he could be lying..... you know the latter seems more legit to me

73 RepliesEdited by magburner: 1/23/2015 5:01:18 PMSo you are comparing Fatebringer to Word of Crota, which is an average hand cannon at best. What of the comparisons with Hawkmoon, or Timur's Lash? I can guarantee you that Fatebringer will look like the poor relation.

Good ol gamefaqs
