Irukandji god roll & best perks

pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): Recommended MW: Range or Stability or Handling or Reload Speed. Rapid-Fire(140) Stasis Sniper Rifle Special Ammo. "Truthfully I don't think we need another rapid-fire frame sniper with Firing Line. We've had a few and the IKELOS sniper was craftable. Irukandji does have access to Veist Stinger for potentially more shots but I wouldn't rely on that being the deal breaker."

Inspired by @PodvsEnemies Podcast vs Enemies episode 56 (https://open.spotify.com/episode/6hjWp0NaachsNymnN22FDL) with @ImpetusAlways, @Saint_Kabr and @CourtProjects. First-choice PvE roll for Major and Boss damage in a fireteam in end-game content. The Season 20 Veist weapon is a rapid-fire sniper rifle with as-expected lowish stats, as a World drop weapon. Irukandji (a small, rare, highly venomous jellyfish from Australia, because of course it would be) does benefit from the Veist Stinger origin trait which is occasionally useful even in its nerfed state. Remember that as at Season 20, this will do less base damage than an equivalent kinetic weapon so, to be competitive, you'll need the parks to fall your way. The main issue you'll find is with keeping the reticule on a boss's crit spot - you'll need to boost Recoil Direction and Stability to make this easier, so Arrowhead Brake or Polygonal Rifling are your barrel perk choices, and Flared Magwell, Tactical Mag or even Steady Rounds (you're not likely to be outside of the damage falloff distance, even with the range penalty) should be your mag perk options. As your first trait column support perk, Envious Assassin overflows your magazine passively with primary and power weapon kills, Fourth Time's The Charm works extends the magazine if you hit crits consistently, or Rapid Hit improves stability (and reload speed) as you fire to keep your reticule steadier. In the signature perk, second column trait, Firing Line is more forgiving of an occasional missed shot when you're in a fireteam but, if you're flying solo, Focused Fury will boost damage in the bottom half of your magazine if you can hit your crits consistently. Recommended MW: Stability, with a damage-boosting (Major, Boss or Taken Spec) or Backup Mag mod|tags: PvE, PvE-Boss, PvE-PvE-MajorSpec, BossSpec, PvE-God, PvE-EndGame, Controller, M+KB

pandapaxxy (PvP / Controller): Recommended MW: Handling. Rapid-Fire(140) Stasis Sniper Rifle Special Ammo. "In PvP you can get a roll identical to Father’s Sins and similar to Praedyth’s Revenge. Father’s Sins does have lower zoom and is craftable for enhanced perks / enhanced intrinsic perk. The good news is that Irukandji is Stasis and Father’s Sins is Void so they won’t compete. In that realm you’re looking at Praedyth’s Revenge which can get adept mods (should you have the adept version). If you have the adept version you can have incredibly high stats, 100 handling and 100 aim assist. Irukandji is great if you don’t have either of those options, but Father’s Sins is craftable and comes from the Witch Queen DLC. Certainly obtainable."
