Bipod is a great perk, just not for dps. But it's absolutely amazing for gms. In a gm setting, nearly everything dies in 1/2 rockets with or without bipod so having the extra rockets in reserves is always worth it. Pairing it with envious on Osprey allows you to shoot 5 straight and pairing with field prep on Semiotician with tripple reserves allows you to hold 20 rockets. 20 rockets is absolutely insane. So while it's a bad perk for raid and dungeon bosses, for nearly anything else, namely gms and non boss raid/dungeon encounters it's a great perk.

I’m not gonna lie, I would always throw on Edge Transit with Envious/BnS for literally EVERY boss (funny part is that it always worked most of the time)

I came back after years for Final Shape and I am grinding for a good Edge Transit. Unbelievable. This was a meme back in 2017. Almost impossible to get a god roll now. But man this does bump your DPS like crazy

Thanks for the video! That player who soloed the encounter with The Witness gave what's probably the best example of damage output and survival, at least for that encounter.

if you need precision damage i would HIGHLY recommend staying away from linears for stuff like whisper, leviathans breath and other exotics as linears are really mediocre damage. dont use them unless you have to.

Use a gernade launcher for 90% of bosses. Never use a linear if possible Swords on bosses that are trickky to hit or have alot of health. Just stillhunt if on hunter

Plz unless there is no other options dont use heavy linears. A taipan with triple tap firing line does similar dps to outbreak with max nanites (within 2%). Linears are very underpowered right now and need a buff. Use whisper, leviathans breath, still hunt, or even microchasm instead. All of these options except microchasm do better dps than the best possible linear which is, Adaptive burst linear fusion rifle Charge MW, Accelerated Coils, Envious Assassin swap to Cornered + enh. Surrounded + Adept Charge Time (Scintillation (Adept)) + Rain of Fire reloads from Aegis's damage sheet.

Great Video, thanks

One small thing about the heavy attacks with swords. For all architypes of legendaries the heavy attacks increase the dps and lower the total damage. The dps increase is often pretty minor so as Shadow said in the video light attacks are usually preferred.

A great video that I totally finished before commenting on

I regret dismantling a LOT of weapons with Disruption Break, now. I didn't think there would EVER be a Kinetic Heavy. Let alone one good enough to see lots of use.

my go-to loadout for the past week has actually been prismatic titan with edge transit, and an exotic mark with star eaters and eternal warrior

Thank you

The sword light attack thing is so true whenever I’m doing herald with my gold guillotine I’m always doing the most damage while I watch my teammates hack away with heavy attacks and they don’t come within 1 million of my damage if we wipe and see damage numbers. I love OG guillotine but the I got mine with frenzy and surrounded or whirlwind blade it literally works in both scenarios absolutely disgusting that they somehow made guillotine three times better with the into the light version.

One of my fav dps weapons is the dragons breath exotic stacked out with improved ignitions and I pair this with an auto loading recombination mountaintop and a golden gun. Constantly gets me damage in the 3 million range

The rocket chest piece on titan can do insane dps on legend and master level dungeons, especially with crafted apex and 2 rocket pistols. Also, the void crossbow from one of the dungeons counts as a rocket pistol so with catalyst you can still debuff without tractor cannon. Looking forward to the new solar rocket pistol so I can slap on those solar surge mods.

Thanks for making these videos they're very informative
