In Summary:
Hey guys! Doing this again this week. As you may of noticed the format has been changed up pretty significantly since last time. I wanted it to be more indicative of the stuff you needed to buy and the stuff I thought would be fun to try out.
With that being said, kind of a pitiful showing for PvE this week. I was actually a little bit worried the Keystone would be my only weapon in the top slot. Some pretty decent Rockets to try out this week however. In terms of PvP, we have a pretty strong showing, with another good Palindrome and Parthian Shot, and a bunch of decent things to experiment with. Parthian ended up taking the top spot this week thanks to the God roll Pali last week. If you picked that one up there's no real reason to buy this one, so Parthian takes the top spot.
Note:
This ranking is based off of the vendor weapons and the vendor weapons alone. It does not take weapons from other sources into account. This list is for players who may not be a high enough light to complete endgame content, or for players who are just looking to switch up their loadout.
-
That looks like a pretty decent Parthian Shot. I might pick that up tonight.
-
Although it's not what it used to be, the vendor Clever Dragon is pretty damn good.
-
No mention for this week's Event Horizon? Void, Mulligan, Explosive Rounds, Firefly. Great for PvE.

Edited by mpuchar: 5/9/2017 7:22:36 PMYou're not going to find a palindrome roll as good as last week's. Unless you lucked out with a luna having rifled, rangefinder, and litc

Edited by LovelySpaghetti: 5/10/2017 7:09:45 AMThe keystone isn't s very good gun for Pve because in raids it still can't 1 shot enemies so you might as well chose a scout with more in the clip like cryptic dragon . Only time I use this archetype of scouts is in combined arms The wounded scout isn't that good either because crowd control and triple tap don't really work together good.
-
FWC scout is REALLY good in PvP.
-
I picked up The Wounded earlier today and I'm glad that I did. Such a fun Scout Rifle.
-
I think you might have screwed up the dates :)
-
Posted for the week of August 5? Trying your hand at seeing the future, eh? Methinks you spent too much time with Eris
-
Eh...last week's Palindrome was better. :/
-
How different is that Warpath than the one everyone went crazy about that I missed?
-
Don't bother with the assembly 2, unless you give it counterbalance it is NOT good
-
Is their anyway to find tier 12 armor in the venders this week?
-
If only the wail had litc.... حاحاتيس
-
Sweet! Thanks for this service, most informative. Can I get a bump for later? :)
-
Buy the void titan mark from speaker 25-35 dis/str
-
All I really look for at this point is palendrome and the wounded. Waiting on rifled/outlaw/litc or rifled/rangefinder/outlaw palendrome Outlaw/firefly/full auto or extended mag wounded
-
If that" how dare you" had steadyhand as a sight it would be my new primary weapon. Why can the palindrome roll goddroll after godroll. But the how dare you cant even roll a simple.... Steadyhand. Rangefinder. Rifled barrel.
