[YeezyGT's S18] [MW: Charge/Stability] "Burden of Guilt's primary draws over Deliverance is its faster charge time, and access to Elemental Capacitor. It's hard to compete with Riptide's Auto-Loading/Chill Clip combination, but Burden of Guilt does a good job finding itself high-Handling options." tags:pve

pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "Adaptive frames have almost always been in the shadow of precisions and they are always grouped into the same “frame” changes. For PvE, similar to other fusions, vorpal weapon is the best in slot perk to look for. Perpetual motion is the best reload perk, which you will need with the low 31 reload stat." Recommended MW - Reload.

Inspired by DMB Player Versus Enemies Podcast 20. PvE backup roll for end-game majors, burst damage. The Alacrity origin trait stat boosts make this excellent for soloing content. Arrowhead Brake helps with controlling the burst, and Enhanced Battery takes the mag size to seven, or Accelerated Coils increases burst damage potential. Elemental Capacitor or Perpetual Motion add further useful stat boosts, and High-Impact Reserves or Swashbuckler boost damage. Recommended MW: Handling or Reload Speed, with a Backup Mag or damage-boosting (Major, Boss or Taken Spec) mod.

pandapaxxy (PvP / M+KB / Controller): "PvP is where I think Burden of Guilt will be able to really show its metaphorical stuff. Having both elemental capacitor to max out handling, or stability, or increase your strafe speed; and high-impact reserves to make the damage profile similar to precisions is incredibly strong." Recommended MW - Stability.
