The upload frequency, the testing, the roll talk, the builds attached when discussing specific weapons or exotics most of the times Keep up the great work man
Yeah the first thing I thought when I saw the perk pool was that Chill Clip should've been there. The raw damage of one for all or high ground vs the guaranteed damage and utility of a lingering pool of stasis slow would've been a cool decision to make.
This weapon and the healer auto have not left my pve loadout since I've gotten them. I don't even use an exotic normally because those two weapons just feel so good to me. Got an ALH/wellspring roll once I managed to get through the servers on day one, and it felt phenomenal in the campaign. On top of that, the GL's damage gives healer auto juice so I can shoot the GL and just keep healing my teammates. After crafting it, I can safely say that this GL is my favorite PvE weapon in the game
@@JarJarBricks01for pure dmg, mtop is better. But if you want something with more utility, that's where this new GL comes in. Just how we used Forbearance for ad clear, this new GL frame is trying to do the same although idk first impressions of the new GL is a bit underwhelming but very fun to use tho
@@wiiwaremania Well I can get utility from mountaintop as well since kills grant grenade energy due to the origin trait. It’s also able to boost you around.
I rarely take it off. I wish it had a nerfed chill clip to apply a small amount of slow but it’s beautiful. Can’t wait to see one of these bad boys with incandescent or chain reaction.
@@fringehouse it would have to be direct hits to proc chill clip tho right? I don’t know if splash damage counts for chill clip since it’s only been on fusions idk if there are any other weapons that roll with it i gotta look 😅
The kinetic slot needs more special backup guns, and this one is exciting. I very much enjoy running an exotic primary in the energy slot, there are many good ones, and then the issue always becomes what to do with the kinetic slot. Auto-loading single tube is often the answer. I think I'll use this a lot.
Could you test the new exotic giant chest piece and a hot head with field prep clown cartridge? I’m curious to see if it is any good for boss dmg in this meta
absolutely love this thing! ive been running it with a getaway artist build so i crafted it with auto loading and demo and man do you get your grenade back fast with it its honestly nuts. Plus like you said about the darkenss energy being a lot faster to build up for transcendence makes this thing so worth it imo. also keep up the consistency man these videos are killer!
My problem with these is are there any scenarios where a special weapon should be used for ad clear? Usually I feel like the job of special is for majors. Double special is the only scenario it’d be good that I can think of
kid named wave-frame gls: but yeah i still only use my special for damage, primaries are pretty much only for add-clear so that's what i use them for. which makes it even funnier when bungie puts add-clear perks on linear fusions or heavy gls
@@dankerbelleven primaries aren't good for adds unless they're exotic just because of how tanky enemies are and the increased enemy density of the game now due to artificial difficulty
@kky7346 this is a little bit incorrect. Legendary primaries are still good, as long as you have a good damage perk. Kinetic tremors, voltshot, incandescent, firefly, dragonfly etc.
Honestly in any difficult content it's dogshit it doesn't kill anything (contest mode) it's really bad. In normal difficulty content it's pretty cool. I like the champ stunning capability seems really cool
Hello friend...what build are you using? I really liked the grenade regeneration. Can you send me the link via din please? You always help me a lot with your videos.
Bruh the fact this doesn't slow and therefore won't stun overloads is so lame. It's still pretty good, but it'd be absolutely over the moon fantastic if it slowed
It’s super weak and only useful for patrol or strikes but Yh it’s neat definitely won’t be getting a crafted roll anytime soon but still great bungie has unique ideas after so long
I was super excited for this GL when I first saw it. Now I'm kinda.middle of the road with it. I like it but I don't love it. I do think it has a lot of potential though
Considered as Witherhoard 2.0, the Lost Signal is quote unquote really weird. I honestly would consider this weapon if you don't have Witherhoard maxed out to full potential plus the catalyst. The perk pool for this weapon was made specifically for Ad Clear, and not for DPS Phases in Raids, Dungeons, etc.. If you choose to go for DPS, the roll that Ehroar had would be it IMO, but for Ad Clear, I would go with either Strategist (Demolitionist for Class Ability), Auto Loading Holster (ALH), Stats for All, or Feeding Frenzy (to especially help with the Reload Speed on this weapon, get a kill, up to x5, and you reload the weapon, bing, bang, boom, you're good to go) in the third column, and to pair any of the four perks that I mentioned for the fourth column, I recommend that you don't sleep on my number one draft pick for this weapon with Reverberation for that Gravaton Lance Like Ad Clear Damage, other selections would be Vorpal Weapon (especially for clearing out side yellow bar enemies), Unrelenting (for those of us who cant stay alive to save an @$$!), One for All (good to pair it with Stats for All) or Demolitionist (for grenade recharge). This weapon, again is for ad clear, and I would recommend getting this weapon IF you don't have Witherhoard maxed out plus the Catalyst.
I just have a hard time seeing myself using this over witherhoard. The ad clear as someone on console who can’t accurately spread out all 5 shots, it’s just not worth the effort to me. Plus witherhoard can double stack against bosses, direct impact plus ground ticks.
As someone who SUCKS with special ammo weapons in pvp I can say for me this is one of if not the most useful special weapons I've ever used. I haven't used it a ton but it's actually really great for people all stacked on each other or holding down tight passage ways
I like it, but I do feel I needs a buff vs guardians, majors, and bosses. In pvp it only deals like 21 damage per tick, and in pve it just feels a little weak vs tougher enemies
Its weird that usually some new good stuff are put in End game content like Trials or dungeon/raid. Surprisingly this time bungie just put it in seasonal which is a easier content.
It's actually a really good weapon on Prismatic to generate Darkness energy if you're not using a Kinetic weapon. Because Transcendence is based on damage output, DoTs actually generate a lot of consistent energy.
I dont know why but the design of the weapon totally doesnt fit the way it shoots and the "projectiles", so i kinda find it of setting(hope this is writen right xD) xD
its my favorite new weapon hands down. I've found that it works well if you throw a glacier grenade and spray the ice with the lost signal, its makes a massive explosion then leaves an even bigger pool behind ;)
I really don't like the animation for it shooting It just feels wrong specially since I'm so used to seeing that model on the ignition code. But it does seem really cool as a new weapon type
ehroar i have a proposition if u get the new handcannon from this activity the 180 can you try enhanced voltshot on it my thesis is based on the origin trait if voltshot gets the kills it will also spawn a pool of vex milk that could be one of the best ad clearing weapons for tigh spaces
I’m rocking a crafted Threat Detector and OFA build for the Helm repeatable mission and am enjoying it. I am using it as a main ad clear, ie reloading over and over, just to get more of a feel for it. So far so good.
I love my SFA/OFA that was the first roll I got. Feels awesome spreading those pools around the combat area, and one thing that I haven't seen too many people talking about is how quick it helps to fill up the Darkness side of Transcendence 👍. All in all, really enjoy switching between this and The Call in my kinetic slot 👍
I feel like this will be slightly less effective on controller where you can’t whip it around as easily. I play on 10 sensitivity and it doesn’t feel great tbh.
Love the fact that all the tests were run in the same lost sector. He literally enslaved the mobs and the whole area as if they were lab rats in his lab.
One for all is very nice for bursting down majors and it obliterates ads. I have auto loading + one for all with a handling masterwork on my crafted and I already have like 5K kills on it
@@jacob-2271 I ran into a warlock using it a few days ago. I think it slows and locks your jump until you’re out of the puddle on top of doing a decent amount DoT. I think there’s definitely a play to made with it in some niche troll builds
To anyone watching, it's not worth it. The ads aren't your regular destiny 1 ads. They move now and aren't going to stand in the pool waiting for you to shoot. The only ads it'll clear is thrall. Crappy weapon.
The upload frequency, the testing, the roll talk, the builds attached when discussing specific weapons or exotics most of the times
Keep up the great work man
The fact that it doesn't slow hurts my soul
Yeah the first thing I thought when I saw the perk pool was that Chill Clip should've been there. The raw damage of one for all or high ground vs the guaranteed damage and utility of a lingering pool of stasis slow would've been a cool decision to make.
@Zed-gj8vq they probably don't want to/can't get that to work. chill clip is exclusively direct hits only
I’ve gotten some shatters with it
Just build a stasis or stand setup.. problem solved
Yes, was so sad when it didn't
This weapon and the healer auto have not left my pve loadout since I've gotten them. I don't even use an exotic normally because those two weapons just feel so good to me. Got an ALH/wellspring roll once I managed to get through the servers on day one, and it felt phenomenal in the campaign.

Even better than the Mountaintop? Because I have a god roll for that and I’m trying to figure out which is better.
@@JarJarBricks01for pure dmg, mtop is better. But if you want something with more utility, that's where this new GL comes in.

What’s the best perks to craft ?
@@JarJarBricks01stop riding the mtop so hard it's good not meta again. Nor will it be loo
Dot over time is a crazy phrase, very funny please keep up
ATM machine
happy someone else saw this lol
SMH my head
rip in peace
Damage over time over time . Squared. To the 3rd power. Junior.
The most annoying thing of this weapon is the stagger effect to the enemy's forcing them get out of the pool
I thought I was tripping when I noticed a small amount of enemies roll or run right out
Honestly I don’t care if it’s good or not it’s new and unique and I’m glad bungie is finally giving us new things
I rarely take it off. I wish it had a nerfed chill clip to apply a small amount of slow but it’s beautiful. Can’t wait to see one of these bad boys with incandescent or chain reaction.
I swear. The only thing this weapon is missing is chill clip.
would be incredible but might make it op. in crucible it’d be toxic as hell lmao
@@fringehouse it would have to be direct hits to proc chill clip tho right? I don’t know if splash damage counts for chill clip since it’s only been on fusions idk if there are any other weapons that roll with it i gotta look 😅
@@saikopomp ya you’re prob right. there’s a chill clip blinding gl I have that i think only chills on direct hit
They will probably give a raid/Dungeon weapon of the same frame chill clip in the future
“You either love it or hate it there’s no in between”
“I’m **leaning** towards love it”
Hi Ehroar man, you da coolest numbers man.
Never did I think I'd see high ground being viable.
Obi wan would like a word
Just something about this gun and Witherhoard making puddles, I just love it. Witherhoard never left my PvE inventory.
This thing also builds dark meter on prismatic so fast!

@@kky7346 lunas howl begs to differ
@@dankerbell yeah the archetype is cool on this one but my first thought was just why not just use forbearance if your goal is ad clear
@kky7346 this is a little bit incorrect. Legendary primaries are still good, as long as you have a good damage perk. Kinetic tremors, voltshot, incandescent, firefly, dragonfly etc.
Congrats on 300k!

I used that with Riskrunner in the Fallen Saber GM, was on warlock. Did a 8:06 minute run 👌
Mainly used it to refill the darkness bar
The Call, Scatter Signal and this are my fave top a lot weapons
I love my auto loading/wellspring combo because I want my abilities back fast.
Bruh the fact this doesn't slow and therefore won't stun overloads is so lame. It's still pretty good, but it'd be absolutely over the moon fantastic if it slowed
It’s super weak and only useful for patrol or strikes but Yh it’s neat definitely won’t be getting a crafted roll anytime soon but still great bungie has unique ideas after so long
Sorry, mountain top is glued to my kinetic slot just exclusively due to the rocket jump function lol.
I use the one for all Auto loading roll on my sunbracers Dragons breath build and it is absolutely nasty and insanely fun.
I got Auto loading/demo on day one of TFS and lost my shit. Its perfect.
I LOVE mine. With auto-holster and demo.
I wish it slowed enneny on hit tho.
I love this weird ass gun. I use it in crucible mostly
Ehroar I have a challenge for you. Pronounce the “G” in “thing”
The problem with the his gun is that I don’t want to replace my The Call
I was super excited for this GL when I first saw it. Now I'm kinda.middle of the road with it. I like it but I don't love it. I do think it has a lot of potential though

its in Kinetic Slot, so no bc Kvostov never leaves this slot
and im not sure sweat even got his ignition code
The first day I got it was the day I realized I’ll never use anything else
Its so underwhelming to me. Doesn't do enough damage waste of a weapon slot
Have a great one for all roll and have close to a hundred crucible kills on it not the best but fun
I just have a hard time seeing myself using this over witherhoard. The ad clear as someone on console who can’t accurately spread out all 5 shots, it’s just not worth the effort to me. Plus witherhoard can double stack against bosses, direct impact plus ground ticks.
You can block off a whole area by just looking left or right
I have the battlepass roll that I use with Gjally Ergo Sum and a B&S Falling Guillotine with Strongholds on Titan, it's pretty fun
As someone who SUCKS with special ammo weapons in pvp I can say for me this is one of if not the most useful special weapons I've ever used. I haven't used it a ton but it's actually really great for people all stacked on each other or holding down tight passage ways
I like it, but I do feel I needs a buff vs guardians, majors, and bosses. In pvp it only deals like 21 damage per tick, and in pve it just feels a little weak vs tougher enemies
Idk if it’s a visual bug, but doing DPS on a boss with One For All, it procs on bosses/mini bosses.
Ehroar hear me out
Pris Titan
Glacial grenade
Throw into big big group of ads
*easy fully charged dark bar*
It’s actually very good. I keep using it, even on master nightfalls, it was pulling some decent damage against ads
Its weird that usually some new good stuff are put in End game content like Trials or dungeon/raid.
Surprisingly this time bungie just put it in seasonal which is a easier content.
This weapon is trash imo. It doesn’t do that much damage
It's actually a really good weapon on Prismatic to generate Darkness energy if you're not using a Kinetic weapon. Because Transcendence is based on damage output, DoTs actually generate a lot of consistent energy.
I cannot wait for a solar area denial frame so I can finally have a flamethrower
I dont know why but the design of the weapon totally doesnt fit the way it shoots and the "projectiles", so i kinda find it of setting(hope this is writen right xD) xD
I just can't really justify a special weapon over The Call right now.
just thought of ergo sum wave and riskrunner perk w stronghold titan could be a pretty crazy build
I used this in the first encounter of the raid during contest mode and damn it slaps! Especially with the artifact mod
its my favorite new weapon hands down. I've found that it works well if you throw a glacier grenade and spray the ice with the lost signal, its makes a massive explosion then leaves an even bigger pool behind ;)
I really don't like the animation for it shooting It just feels wrong specially since I'm so used to seeing that model on the ignition code. But it does seem really cool as a new weapon type
On the contrary, the more you use it, the more you'll hate it.
This weapon is amazing for Onslaught
ehroar i have a proposition if u get the new handcannon from this activity the 180 can you try enhanced voltshot on it my thesis is based on the origin trait if voltshot gets the kills it will also spawn a pool of vex milk that could be one of the best ad clearing weapons for tigh spaces

All in all, really enjoy switching between this and The Call in my kinetic slot 👍
Been using it with strategist and wellspring, one burst can give me back my dodge instantly as hunter 👌
Now, if only they can give us good-looking vex theme armor.
I feel like this will be slightly less effective on controller where you can’t whip it around as easily. I play on 10 sensitivity and it doesn’t feel great tbh.
I was just thinking this, it does feels pretty meh not using MnK
Is high ground procing when you shoting while in the air from a jump?
I think it will be powercrept as soon as we get a Strand now with Slice or Hatchling.
The pools barely get big, you’re insane saying 50% bigger
Even if the damage is bad it generates dark transcendence energy very quickly
Love the fact that all the tests were run in the same lost sector. He literally enslaved the mobs and the whole area as if they were lab rats in his lab.
i love this gun it worked great for salvations edge second encounter
Demo on that gun with the getaway artist build is broken
Imagine this thing had chill clip or some crazy shit 😭
that's cool and all but the call exists
I love this weapon! The only issue is I have to not use Kvostov!
now imagine a strand one with hatchling…
this frame will be insane once a couple more weapons with it release
I was literally just wondering how this weapon is 😂
My only issue with this weapon is that its duration is too short
ou voçe pode passar essa bild
Seen a lot of people hating on this thing and I love it. Got it crafted but still not sure on what 4th column perk I want to run.
One for all is very nice for bursting down majors and it obliterates ads. I have auto loading + one for all with a handling masterwork on my crafted and I already have like 5K kills on it
It’s kinda mid crafted
finally someone who doesn't compare it to witherhoard (a damage weapon) in the title or thumbnail
Why wouldn't someone compare it to witherhorde though?
Which shader is he using ??
Yo, what is that helmet? Also why is that helmet? Lol
That's the new seasons helmet. It's gorgeous, isn't it?
How do you run onslaught normal alone?
I have a threat detector/demo roll and I like it.
We need an incandescent perk for slow
Hi Carl
Does high ground work if you are jumping?
Lil late but nope
This Weapon BLOWS! What A POS.
Really unique weapon and gameplay
Kinda feel like we should’ve gotten a perk in the 4th column that slows enemies in the pools
Chill clip?
@@dutchvanderlinde6568 yeah that would be awesome
Ehroar is officially back baby.
It seems like it slows on hit in pvp which makes it suprisingly good
There is no way
@@jacob-2271 I ran into a warlock using it a few days ago. I think it slows and locks your jump until you’re out of the puddle on top of doing a decent amount DoT. I think there’s definitely a play to made with it in some niche troll builds
Glad you’re back man
"dot over time"
Witherpoored
I hope we get an exotic version that literally just includes the “stasis rounds” buff from the seasonal activity. So much fun
To anyone watching, it's not worth it. The ads aren't your regular destiny 1 ads. They move now and aren't going to stand in the pool waiting for you to shoot. The only ads it'll clear is thrall. Crappy weapon.
