Good Morning everyone! I’m back! Before we get started let’s give Haunter & Kroppin a hand for holding the fort down while I was out of town.
It’s a new week, & a NEW Armsday! Aren’t you excited?! [i]Don’t everyone stand up at once…[/i]
I’m Aerikx & I will be making PVE recommendations!
Making it rain with PVP Recommendations is my partner in Crime, not one to saunter, but a well known taunter, the bad ass Haunter.
Supporting us by droppin some bonus orders is the one & only, there ain’t no stopping, the one we call Kroppin.
To speak in millennial: ”We make every Armsday lit. Fam.”
(*urp!* I think I just…threw up & died a little in my soul…)

Roll 1:
Candle/Torch/Signal
Rescue Mag
Lightweight/HLS
Zen Moment/Surrounded
Roll 2:
Spark/Flash/Signal
Icarus
Quickdraw/Rifled Barrel
Zen Moment/Exhumed
Roll 3:
Candle/Flash/Impulse
Rescue Mag
Extended Mag/Smallbore
Firefly/Underdog
Recommendation: None. Roll 3 if you can no longer wait.
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Save
Honestly, I have had time to play with the Chaos Dogma, & this SR can not only rival it, but surpass it.
These rolls are alright but it can be better.
Roll 3 is a decent to above average PVE SR. Firefly + Rescue Mag is a nice combo for regening Health. Extended Mag vs Smallbore will honestly rely on your personal preference. With no Triple Tap, Smallbore is more worthwhile if you ask me.
[b][i][u]Tuonela SR4[/u][/i][/b]
Roll 1:
Spark/Flash/Impulse
Icarus
Snapshot/Rifled Barrel
Firefly/Danger Close
Roll 2:
Candle/Torch/Impulse
Icarus
Snapshot/Smallbore
Third Eye/EotS
Roll 3:
Spark/Flash/Impulse
Life Support
SPS/Rifled Barrel
Third Eye/Underdog
Recommendation: None
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Save
I own 2 Tuonela SRs, these rolls do not do this gun justice. This one very reliable SR, & benefits immensely from Firefly, Triple Tap, & Stability (This gun can be a Laser beam.) Save that order!
[b][i][u]Thesan FR4[/u][/i][/b]
Roll 1:
Void
Candle/Torch
AoO
Accelerated Coils/Braced Frame
Underdog/Surrounded
Roll 2:
Solar
Spark/Torch
Replenish
Quickdraw/Oiled Frame
Life Support/Surrounded
Roll 3:
Solar
Candle/Torch
Grenadier
Quickdraw/HLS
Underdog/Exhumed
Recommendation: None. Roll 1 if you are tired of this order.
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Save
Roll 1 is stronger due to braced frame, the stability + AoO will help you make quick work of powerful enemies as this gun hits hard, and with Braced Frame, there is no longer any kick.
Honestly, wait till next week, while stability is good, it’s best when partnered with a range perk on the Thesan.
[b][i][u]Eirene RR4[/u][/i][/b]
Roll 1:
Void
Corvo/Faucon
Grenadier
HCR/HLS
Unflinching/Mulligan
Roll 2:
Solar
Corvo/Aquila
Outlaw
HCR/Injection Mold
Battle Runner/EotS
Roll 3:
Solar
Yepaki/Aquila
Grenadier
Snapshot/Oiled Frame
Unflinching/Mulligan
Recommendation: None
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Save
Eirene can be A LOT better than this, due to the current state of Snipers, hold onto this order.

[i]“It only takes 1 Round, to take a Mother[oh my lord!]er down!”[/i]
[b][i][u]Judith-D[/u][/i][/b]
Roll 1:
Quickdraw/Sureshot
Triple Tap
Outlaw
Snapshot/APR/Oiled Frame
Roll 2:
Quickdraw/Sureshot
Hot Swap
Rangefinder
Snapshot/APR/Smallbore
Roll 3:
Truesight/Steadyhand
Relentless Tracker
Final Round
Speed Reload/EXR/Reinforced Barrel
Recommendation: None.
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Save
I can’t in my right mind even recommend a “Tired of Waiting” out of these rolls.
[b][i][u]Lyudmila-D[/u][/i][/b]
Roll 1:
SC Holo/LD Watchdog
Headseeker
Unflinching
Snapshot/Hand Loaded/Oiled Frame
Roll 2:
GB Iron/LD Watchdog
Crowd Control
Spray & Play
HCR/Hand Loaded/HLS
Roll 3:
SC Holo/LB Assault
Crowd Control
Feeding Frenzy
Snapshot/Fitted Shot/Reinforced Barrel
Recommendation: Roll 3
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Redeem
Roll 3 is what “I” would call a God Roll.
Crowd Control + Feeding Frenzy is an AMAZING combo. Kills boost reload & your dmg, & Fitted Stock is free Stability.
This PR hits like a Freight Train.
This is a PR to own!
[b][i][u]Herja-D[/u][/i][/b]
Roll 1:
GB Iron/LC Ranged
Surrounded
Zen Moment
HCR/Speed Reload/Injection Mold
Roll 2:
GA Post/LC Ranged
AoO
Feeding Frenzy
Snapshot/Hand Loaded/HLS
Roll 3:
SC Holo/LC Ranged
Last Resort
Spray & Play
HCR/Fitted Stock/HLS
Recommendation: Roll 2
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Reorder
Since this PR can be reordered this week you might as well pick up Roll 2.
This gun shoots very smooth, & kills pretty fast to be honest. AoO + Feeding Frenzy will boost your Grenade & Melee CD & provide you with very fast reloads, add in Hand Loaded to boost the slightly lacking range. This roll isn’t the best but it’s definitely a win-win.

[i]”Dark. Dreamy. Smooth. Soft. Encompassing. Stimulating. SUROS.”[/i]
[b][i][u]DIS-43[/u][/i][/b]
Roll 1:
SLO-12/SPO-28/SRO-37
Fitted Stock
Rangefinder
Lightweight/Rifled Barrel
Roll 2:
SLO-12/SPO-26/SRO-37
Perfect Balance/Appended Magazine
Unflinching
SPS/Reinforced Barrel
Roll 3:
SLO-12/SPO-28/SRO-41
Hammer Forged/Feather Mag
Outlaw
SPS/Injection Mold
Recommendation: Roll 1
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Save or Redeem
Roll 1 is a SR that behaves like a Sniper. SPO-28 gives you SUROS’ best scope, Fitted Stock is a decent stability boost, Rangefinder + Rifled Barrel will cap your Range & possibly hit the cap.
This is a very sturdy Max Range SR. It breaks many encounters in PVE, as this SR also hits decently hard.
[b][i][u]JLB-47[/u][/i][/b]
Roll 1:
Solar
Confined Launch/Soft Launch/Countermass
SPS/Flared Magwell
Whos’ Next
Javelin/Snapshot
Roll 2:
Solar
Confined Launch/Smart Drift Control/Countermass
SPS/Speed Reload
G&H
Perfect Balance/Lightweight
Roll 3:
Aggressive Launch/Soft Launch/Hard Launch
SPS/Speed Reload
Unflinching
Javelin/Quickdraw
Recommendation: Roll 2
Redeem/Save/Reorder: Reorder
This RL can be reordered this week, so pick up Roll 2.
Roll 2 is meant to be dumbfired. Speed Reload + G&H + Javelin = Death to your enemies.
Tracking is a better option, but G&H will make sure that an enemy sidestepping your rocket will still get hurt.
[b][i][u]Next Week’s Orders[/u][/i][/b]
[u]Uffern HC4[/u]: Order
Omolon’s best HC. High Impact, High Stablity, Decent Range, Aim Assist = 50, Mag = 7
[u]JLB-47[/u]: Order
SUROS’ top RL. Can & usually rolls to achieve max Blast Radius & Velocity, easily outshines &/or matches Exotic RLs. If you need to replace the now defunct Truth, this is your RL.
[u]Tamar-D[/u]: PVE = Pass / PVP = Order
Hakke SPRs are not good for PVE gameplay. PVP players however will want to look into these.
They do NOT roll PVE perks such as Triple Tap, Clown Cartridge, Firefly. But tend to roll perks that help in PVP: Hidden Hand to name one example.
[u]DIS-47[/u]: Order
Mid-Impact, Mid-Stability, Mid-Range, Mag = 20. The sister of the DIS-43, while lower in impact, it has Higher Stability & often mixes with Full Auto better than the 43. Can become a Full Auto Laser Beam if rolled properly.
[u]Herja-D[/u]: Order
Mid Impact, High Stability, Low Range. The little sister of the Lyudmila, it has a High RoF, shoots as smooth as butter (in 4 round bursts at that!), & is quite flexible to be blunt. It feels more tailored for PVP gameplay, but it is also quite effective in PVE.
That’s it for this edition of Ahh! It’s Armsday!
I want to once again say thank you to everyone who PM’d me wishing me a safe trip, & a happy vacation. Honestly, the kind words seriously mean a lot. I actually have severe depression, so to be embraced & accepted by all of you really brings my spirits up. I am not sugar coating that either. I legit mean it.
To make up for missing last week I worked hard on this week’s Foundry Ads. I had to make them short & sweet as Crucible is sponsoring us this week.
Have a great week! Gun’s up Guardians!!!

Edited by Mr.Slendykins: 3/3/2017 1:06:20 AM[quote][u]Tamar-D:[/u] PvE = Pass[/quote] Someone really doesn't utilise surplus... I've used my Aiofe since TTK sheerly due to surplus, braced frame (doesn't reduce the magazine size or reserves) and spray and play. It's an excellent PvE weapon, quickly unload into bosses/adds due to excellent stability and reload stats all in the mean time you gather DOUBLE the amount of ammo from gummy blocks for all weapons, that utility factor is a solid factor alone to get this weapon. I rest my case.
