pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "Ancient Gospel comes back with better than ever perks. Besides the obvious Void Synergy with Destabilizing Rounds and Repulser Brace, we also get a Kindled Orchid exclusive perk combination of Rampage and Kill Clip. For those who missed Black Armory this is certainly a roll to try out. With Destabilizing Rounds in the third column you can also pair that with damage perks unheard of adaptive frame hand cannons. There's a ton you can do with this hand cannon and with it being craftable you can try different things" Recommended MW: Reload Speed.

pandapaxxy (PvP / M+KB / Controller): "Ancient Gospel has a particular feel over in the crucible. There's a consensus that this weapon just feels off. Perks like Rapid Hit or Lone Wolf will improve the feel, while Eye of the Storm or To the Pain will improve that even further within your gunfights. Kill Clip will allow for some 2c1b kills, and Explosive Payload will allow you to hit a bit further and retain better damage versus non-Explosive Payroll rolls." Recommended MW: Range.

Inspired by @PodvsEnemies episode 125 from 3 December 2024 (https://open.spotify.com/episode/0unzzecMfqDsL3nxHGSQsp?si=d40055092caa4fa1) with @CourtProjects, @Saint_Kabr and @ImpetusAlways (PvE PvE-Minor PvE-EndGame PvE-God M+KB Controller): First-choice PvE pick for add-clearing minor enemies in general, and end-game underleveled content. Ancient Gospel returns as, for some reason, a void adaptive hand cannon this time with a whole load of PvP trait perks, but not much for PvE fans. At base the stats are solid - 41 Range equates to 29.54m when ADS and 19.69m hipfire, 46 Handling is a 0.34s ready, 0.26s ADS and 0.38s stow time, and 43 Reload Speed is a 2.69s reload. Recoil Direction is a perfect 100. Use the barrel and mag perks to round out your preferred stats - you might lean into Range or Handling for the barrel, and Range or Reload Speed with the magazine. There's really only one PvE trait perk roll pairing that works - Destabilizing Rounds and Explosive Payload - also useful against Overload Champions in particular, needing only two shots to disrupt when the artifact mod is around. The Photoinhibition origin trait is very strong for PvE - a ×1.343 damage boost against barriers and elemental shields and ×1.216 against combatant overshields plus disorienting your target and, if matched with the shield type adds nearby too for 7s. Recommended MW: Any, depending on personal preference, with a Backup Mag mod or, when masterworked, Synergy to create Void Breaches or, when the artifact mod's around, Stunloader.|tags:PvE PvE-Minor PvE-EndGame PvE-God M+KB Controller
