Beloved god roll & best perks

Inspired by DMB Player Versus Enemies Podcast 18. PvE backup roll for general. Shapeable. To Excess origin perk is most useful with Tier 4/5 supers with the shortest cooldown, but can add to melee/grenade builds. The traits don't really help with PvE boss damage, but there are a couple of potentially decent rolls - focus on stability to make crit shots a little easier, and No Distractions and Box Breathing to make the most of single shot damage. Recommended MW: Stability, with a Backup Mag or damage-boosting (Minor, Major or Taken Spec) mod.

Inspired by DMB Podcast 262 conversation with @ItzShadow. PvP backup A-Tier roll for duelling. Shapeable. Decent across-the-board stats and a mid-strength zoom, although the origin trait won't be of much use in PvP, unfortunately. Look for range with barrel and mag, without damaging other stats. Without Snapshot Sights, you'll be better off using this roll for lane control with Firmly Planted or No Distractions, while Moving Target boosts your aim assist and ADS movement speed. Recommended MW: Range, with a Targeting Adjuster mod.

pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "Unfortunately for Beloved’s PvE presence, the best fourth column perk is box breathing. It’s not the worst perk for a sniper, but is severely outclassed by more PvE dedicated snipers." Recommended MW - Reload.

pandapaxxy (PvP / M+KB / Controller): "Beloved was made for the crucible. [...] Instead of going all into range like previously, the recent sandbox changes have made handling more important than ever. Both quickdraw and snapshot are still incredible on Beloved, but now you can go for surplus, moving target, or firmly planted and still have a smashing good time." Recommended MW - Handling.
