So I was in the tower a couple of minutes ago to turn in some night bounties. I go to Cryptarch because I had picked up a rare primary engram. I decide to quickly decode it and dismantle for the parts. To my surprise, RNG gives me a VENATION III with the following perks
- Outlaw
- Perfect Balance, Single Point Sling, Field Scout
- Crowd Control
I feel like really lucky right now! Thanks RNG for cutting me a break. What perk do you guys recommend? Anyone else get anything get something really good from a rare engram lately?
EDIT: Got rid of "THE BEST" because everybody going on about Hawkmoon. Wish I had one ;(
EDIT 2: I finally got a Fatebringer! HOORAY
EDIT 3: aaaaand we've been necrobumped

Up for anything Field scout Counterbalance Third eye
-
I have a Devil You Don't with Outlaw, Field Scout and Crowd Control. I still always use Fatebringer.

-
Oh you only got a handcannon. I thought you got hawkmoon.
-
Man I want hawkmoon but rng is a bitch
-
I've got a Vanquisher with counter balance, field scout, and grenadier
-
One way ticket 0000 Tracking Field scout Clown cartridge
-
Nice! Definitely a keeper!
-
The problem is that the weapon is a Venation III. One of the worst Hand Cannon variants. Those are golden perks, but they are on the wrong weapon.
-
Dude, if you're happy with the gun and perk rolls, then -blam!- all these trolls. They just have inferiority complexes. Happy gaming to you and enjoy!
-
A red hand IX w/ spray n' play, send it and final round.

I used to have an old 300 dmg Venation III myself the base stats (impact, stability, reload) are some of the best base stats of any legendary hand cannon. It's ROF (rate of fire) is actually good in my opinion because it's right in the medium so that you'll have plenty of time to keep the cross-hairs where you need them to be for precision damage. The only thing that it somewhat lacks is a higher base range. Since the last patch hand cannons were tuned to where you start to see more of a damage drop off at further distances and things like having a higher base range or a perk to help make the range higher, perks like send-it. Outlaw is a great perk on any hand cannon! Once you start to get used to the hand cannon you're using and start to nail those precision shots with ease you'll love being an outlaw lol! Perfect Balance is nice to have don't get me wrong, but considering the Venation III's stock 8 bullets in the clip you might want to go with field scout to get the max of 13 in the clip and also be able to hold more ammo in reserve. This will help a little with the Crowd Control perk being more of a factor. Crowd Control is a decent perk in my opinion. It's better suited for Shotguns, Auto-Rifles and Fusion Rifles, depending on the charge rate, which are close to mid-range weapons. The bonus damage the perk gives the weapon in use only lasts for about 3 seconds if I'm not mistaken and Hand Cannons don't really get to see the full effect of the perk. If you had a perk like Rangefinder in the place of Crowd Control it would help make the Venation III more balanced and deadlier at range. =) Don't let anybody tell you that a weapon you feel comfortable with and love is something that sucks. Cause if it's good in your mind and you're good with it and what perks you have at your dispense then you'll do fine. Now if it had perks like Grenadier and Mulligan instead of Outlaw and Crowd control, then you'd have to believe anyone that told you it was a horrible roll on a weapon lol! Grenadier and Mulligan suck! Happy Gaming!

I rolled Spray & Play, Perfect Balance/Send It and Final Round a while back. Love it.
-
Timur's Lash is still better. But nice one :)
-
I got one of those too.... mine rolled a little better honestly. -Luck in the Chamber -Ammo Bonus on Kills -Explosive Rounds/High Caliber ^_^ (It's on my titan)
-
Good roll that. I have venation with mulligan send it and return to sender. It's pretty underwhelming. Yours sounds great though.
-
I got fatebringer without any upgrades. It's still better than your venation lol
-
I would use field scout
-
I got the same one but with Send it in Field Scout's place!!
-
Love this gun. I got clown cartridge, field scout, and luck in the chamber. It's a beast.
-
That's pretty awesome man!!
-
You got a good one, not the best.
-
Sweet !!
-
I used to have a 331 Timurs Lash with the exact same perks. [spoiler]i dismantled it, and i regret nothing[/spoiler]
