Rapid Hit

"Buffed Hits" grant 1 Stack of Rapid Hit for 2 seconds. Maximum of 5 Stacks. "Buffed Hits" refer to any "Yellow Number" Hits such as Precision Hits or Hits against debuffed targets. Benefits at 1|2|3|4|5 Stacks: • 2|12|14|18|25 Stability • 5|30|35|42|60 Reload Speed • 0.99x|0.96x|0.95x|0.945x|0.92x Reload Duration Multiplier

Rolling Storm

Weapon Kills grant 1 Stack of Bolt Charge. While Amplified, this is increased to 2 Stacks.

Dual Loader

Reloading loads 1 additional round into the magazine at a time.

Supercharged Magazine

Refills 5% of the magazine (rounded up) every 1.5 seconds while Amplified. Activating Speed Booster increases this rate to once every 0.25 seconds, and allows the perk to overfill the magazine up to double its base capacity.

Hip-Fire Grip

Grants the following benefits while hipfiring: • 25 Stability and 15 Aim Assist • 2.7° larger Precision Aim Cone Angle • 30% decreased Accuracy Cone Size • 20% increased Aim Assist Falloff Distance • 20% increased Damage Falloff Distance The Damage Falloff increase does not apply to The Last Word, Shotguns, Sniper Rifles, and Fusion Rifles. PvP-specific note: the Precision Aim Cone Angle increase essentially just allows you to hit Crits while aimed above or slightly to the side of the head. (This is already the default behavior of Submachine Guns, Sidearms, Bows, Machine Guns, and Linear Fusion Rifles so it does not affect them)

Lucky Shot

Finishing a reload within ? seconds of a Precision Kill grants 'Lucky Shot Ready'. Scoring a Precision Hit while you have Lucky Shot Ready refills the magazine by 1 from reserves and begins a 7 second timer. Additional precision hits during this timer continue to refill the magazine from reserves.

Chaos Reshaped

Being in Combat for 12 seconds grants a Stack of 'Chaos Reshaped' for 7 seconds. Maintaining the first Stack for 12 seconds grants a second Stack. Buff can be activated while stowed. For Chaos Reshaped, being in Combat is defined as having either dealt or received damage within the last 5 seconds. Benefits at Chaos Reshaped x1 and x2: • x1: grants 20% increased damage • x2: grants 35% increased damage and grants a periodic burst of healing Healing effect is bugged! While Chaos Reshaped x2 is active: Stowing the weapon or keeping it readied for 7 seconds grants a continous healing effect of 5 HP per second. Stowing this weapon grants the effect for 1 to 7 seconds (cycling, it's complicated), while keeping it readied after activation makes the healing effectively constant. While this healing effect is active, NO OTHER SOURCE OF HEALING CAN RESTORE THE FINAL [~35 to 5] HP OF YOUR HEALTH BAR! This unrecoverable HP segment can only be healed by Chaos Reshaped's 5/HPs effect. For more details, visit the perk description in the Destiny Data Compendium.

Meganeura

Precision Hits grant one stack of Meganeura for 3.5 seconds. Maximum of 3 stacks. Precision Kills cause targets to explode, dealing 123.89 [95.3] | 173.6 [?] | 207.57 [?] weapon-matching elemental damage in a 7.5-meter radius at 1|2|3| stacks. Explosion has up to 50% damage falloff at the furthest point.

Redirection

Hits against Minor Combatants grant 2 Stacks of Redirection. Maximum of 30 Stacks. Stacks remain active while stowed. Hits against Elite or higher-ranked Combatants consume up to 3 Stacks to grant 33% increased damage per Stack consumed.

Precision Instrument

Direct Weapon Hits grant a stack of Precision Instrument for 1.25 seconds (2.1 seconds on weapons with a Draw/Charge Time). Maximum of 6 stacks. Reloading the weapon (except on Bows) or missing removes all stacks... usually. Heavy Burst Frame weapons can only gain 1 stack per burst. Adaptive Burst Linear Fusion Rifles require 1.5? Hits for each stack (and missing sometimes does not remove your stacks on them). Precision damage increase at 1|2|... stacks: 4.17% | 8.33% | 12.5% | 16.67% | 20.83% | 25%

Gear Shift

Finishing a reload within ? seconds of a Weapon Kill, or becoming Amplified, grants 1 stack of 'Gear Shift' for 15 seconds. Maximum of 5 stacks. Grants 15%|20%|25%|30%|35% increased damage at 1|2|3|4|5 stacks. Buff can be triggered while stowed and refreshed with each new application of Amplified.

Explosive Payload

Splits off 50% of the weapon's bodyshot damage into an Explosive Payload that detonates on impact. The Payload deals 30% increased damage in PvE and staggers PvE Combatants more. On Hand Cannons, the Payload deals 7% decreased damage in PvP. The remaining Impact damage portion receives an increased Crit Multiplier to compensate for the Payload not benefitting from crits. [PvE] Total damage is increased by 15% of the weapon's bodyshot damage. For crits, the overall increase is roughly equal to 15% divided by the Crit Multiplier. [PvP] Total damage remains roughly the same but can vary by 1-2% in either direction for crits.

Tex Balanced Stock

Scoring 4 Hip-Fire Hits within 4? seconds of each grants the following benefits for 4 seconds: • 20 Range, Handling, and Reload Speed • 0.9x Reload Duration Multiplier • 1.5° larger Precision Aim Cone • 10% decreased ADS Movement Speed Penalty Scoring additional Hip-Fire Hits refreshes the buff duration.
