Bolt Caster
On arms day this week I'll only have to complete the strike to get this sword.
What are people's thought so far on this one? I hear that it's a little weaker than the others but that ranged attack still seems to take out level 41 yellows from what I can see in one shot. Looks like it can also take out mobs from a distance if they are close enough. The ranged attack seems pretty clutch since you can still do tons of damage up close as well.
Can people that have used this sword give me their thoughts?
Also, gonna prepare my alt to get a second sword, which one should I get next? Void or solar?

I chose bolt caster first, it wrecks mobs and can take down (most) yellow bars with one special attack, or two max. As well, it has tracking so if it's aimed in their general direction it'll usually hit them. Really good at wrecking witches even though their shields resists it's damage. Second, I'd pick solar. Especially for taken adds (captains, Knights, etc.). The key to me getting my black spindle is I had a friend with the solar exotic and he wrecked all captains and knights before they had a chance to lay down fire or blind. As well, this thing will one hit yellow bars like crazy and does an uppercut so can pull down witches too. Lastly, I'd choose bolt caster because it wrecks mobs up close and far away and its arc reaches for such a long distance with no damage fall off, has tracking, and wrecks in crucible. Worrying someone is gonna shotgun you or swing their sword on you in crucible? Just hit them from a mile away with your special. It's super versatile, definitely worth getting.

The three are evenly balanced, I chose the solar sword because it had the highest DPS

1 ReplyI just picked up my dark drinker last night and it is so much fun destroying groups of mobs. I will be getting the bolt caster next it looks usefull in pvp. I feel like the solar sword is the weakest.

1 ReplySo many problem targets have void shields now. I'd do the void sword next.

1 ReplyFor taking out adds I would say dark drinker. It's so much fun to jump in a group of adds your fireteam is shooting at and just instantly destroy them all.

1 ReplyArc is probably the best PvP sword as the ranged attack can hit someone from crazy range, but nothing can beat the Lighter in terms of raw DPS to one target. I say go Lighter next.

Anyone?
