Blood Feud god roll & best perks

pandapaxxy (PvE Controller \ M+KB): Recommended MW: Reload “Blood Feud looks to be the best weapon from Plunder activities. Being a stasis 750 with arguably better roll combinations over Cold Front from the Dawning. Wait just a second, Cold Front was not even Stasis. In PvE I think the absolute best combo is going to be ambitious assassin with headstone. Headstone kills do proc ambitious assassin for you to overload your magazine. It can be a little finicky but it does work. If you would prefer non-Stasis oriented builds and a more neutral weapon you can go for the most punchy weapon this side of Titan (RIP Sloane). Grave robber or pugilist with swashbuckler is the play. Just make sure to have some stability so you will not be looking at Io (RIP Asher).“ (Year 5 S18: Season of Plunder Stasis Submachine Gun Primary Ammo)|tags:PvE, Controller, M+KB

[YeezyGT's S18] [MW: Reload] "Blood Feud is slowly replacing my favourite SMG, Extraordinary Rendition. The new Ambitious Assassin buff is extremely good on this archetype, coupled with S-Tier SMG perk Frenzy. You can get comparable to Threat Detector speeds with a near-constant 15% damage buff, and going beyond double your mag size just by snowballing kills. When you set this thing up the right way, it plays fantastically well. Truly its only downside, from personal preference, comes from poor shading - for me, it doesn't win out on style points. So, is it function over form? Up to you." tags:pve

pandapaxxy (PvP Controller): Recommended MW: Stability “In PvP I do not think Blood Feud will replace other smgs, namely Huckleberry. You can get some interesting Stasis synergy with headstone, but Forensic Nightmare exists. Whether you prefer a 600 to a 750 is personal preference. I think elemental capacitor on either stasis, arc, or void is going to be one of the best feeling submachine guns to shoot.“ (Year 5 S18: Season of Plunder Stasis Submachine Gun Primary Ammo)
