Hullabaloo god roll & best perks

pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "Hullabaloo needed a bit of a buff to feel good and had some unique rolls the last time. If you managed to get them there's nothing to look forward to. All the rolls are basically identical. Voltshot and Chain Reaction are unique together and very fun. But I found myself gravitating toward Envious Assassin with Chain Reaction or Cascade Point." Recommended MW: Velocity.

pandapaxxy (PvP / M+KB / Controller): "While I don't think many people will use the wave frame over a traditional GL in PvP, those same few will almost always catch someone off guard. I can count on one hand how many times I've died to a heavy wave frame GL in PvP and all 5 of those times were during Guardian Games. Impulse Amplifier will help keep the trajectory linear instead of arcing, and Golden Tricorn will just give you extra damage for if you're not quite as accurate on the second shot." Recommended MW: Blast Radius.

Hullabaloo is only one of two Compressed Wave Frame grenade launchers in game atm. At base, the stats are lowerby comparison with its only peer - 28 Velocity equates to 40.35m/s (although you're firing at your feet so isn't that important), 38 Stability is ×1.1242 flinch resist at 100 Resilience, 41 Handling is 0.44s ready, 0.42s ADS and 0.39s stow speed, 39 Reload Speed is a 3.27s reload, Recoil Direction is 80 (but that doesn't matter), and base magazine size is 5 (max 7). With 0/1/2/3 reserves mods, total ammo is 25/27/28/29 (max 31). Use the barrel perk to bump up the Blast Radius, to widen the wave or, if you're swapping a lot look to boost Handling. For a boss roll against Bosses with multiple bodies, such as Raneiks Unified from the Vesper's Host dungeon, Field Prep provides a reserves mod worth of total ammo (2 when enhanced), and +50 Reload Speed (+55 when enhanced) and ×0.8 reload and handling animations when crouched. Alternatively, Envious Assassin can overload your magazine by as much as ×3, or you can bypass reload with Envious Arsenal. As the damage perk, One For All boosts damage by ×1.35 for 10s for hitting three enemies which is S-Tier for Raneiks' damage phase. Classy Contender is an unspectacular origin trait, generating roughly 5% class ability energy on kills. Recommended MW: Blast Radius or Handling with a Backup Mag mod. Also, don't forget to check whether there's a useful Seasonal Fragile mod for the activity you're running.|tags:PvE PvE-Boss PvE-BossSpec PvE-God M+KB Controller

As the second column damage perk, Chain Reaction (the original un-nerfed version) is available to chain 3m-wide arc explosions on kills for greater AoE effect.

Adamsdown_Boy written v8.5.2.1 (PvE PvE-Boss PvE-MajorSpec PvE-God M+KB Controller): First-choice PvE pick for burst damage against Elites, Champions and Minibosses.

For a burst damage weapon, the trait perk combination of Demolitionist and Golden Tricorn to trigger the first stack of ×1.5 damage for 7s, proc the second stack of ×1.5 for 10s with a grenade, which also refills the magazine, and then regenerate grenade ability energy from kills, works well. Classy Contender is an unspectacular origin trait, generating roughly 5% class ability energy on kills. Recommended MW: Blast Radius or Handling with a Backup Mag mod.
