pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): Recommended MW: Reload. Rapid-Fire(720) Arc Auto Rifle Primary Ammo. "While I like Dark Decider coming back and more Veist-Rapid Fire Frame autos is never a bad thing. They are incredibly fun to use. It harps back to Vanilla when I used Hollow Earth nearly every day. A better version in this economy? Heck yeah. Golden Tricorn with an Arc subclass will give you damage that scales up to almost GM level activities. Dragonfly gives you some great add clear potential with Veist Stinger to keep up the shooting, pair that with Subsistence and you can almost non-stop firing. Titans Rejoice a legendary Sweet Business that has ‘splosions!"

pandapaxxy (PvP / Controller): Recommended MW: Stability. Rapid-Fire(720) Arc Auto Rifle Primary Ammo. "In PvP 720s aren’t super meta, but they are consistent, fun and surprisingly lethal. Dynamic Sway Reduction and Rangefinder will give you great stability and range, you can bump up recoil direction to 88 with Arrowhead Brake and a counterbalance mod. Ricochet Rounds gives you some great stability before Dynamic Sway Reduction kicks in."

What these Dark Decider perks do

Subsistence

Weapon Kills refill 10% of the magazine (rounded up) from reserves. Submachine Gun and Auto Rifle Kills refill 17% of the magazine.

While Golden Tricorn x1 or x2 is active: Grenade or Elemental Melee Kills matching the element of the Weapon grant Golden Tricorn x2 for 10 seconds, increasing weapon damage by 50%. Clarity tooltip editor's note: We're replacing the previous Powered Melee term with Elemental Melee. The former is now exclusively used for perks that require the consumption of a Melee Ability Charge. This note is temporary and will be removed in the future.
