pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): Recommended MW: Reload. Rapid-Fire(500) Arc Fusion Rifle Special Ammo. "Iterative Loop needs better recoil direction. You might almost want to run counterbalance mod on it at all times. Accelerated Coils bumps up your damage per second. Lead from Gold is a very fun build and this could be a great major / champ killer. Compulsive Reloader and Voltshot would make a great pairing and clear rooms quickly. Not quite as strong as Reservoir Burst but an interesting arc alternative."

pandapaxxy (PvP / Controller): Recommended MW: Range. Rapid-Fire(500) Arc Fusion Rifle Special Ammo. "Over in the Crucible void mains will be happy. Under Pressure and Elemental Capacitor will make this weapon feel like it doesn’t move. Another incredible combo would be Under Pressure and Kickstart. Pair those two with heavy investments into charge time and you will have a 336ms anti-shotgun. This might almost fire so quickly you won’t be able to precharge as often or aim as well. Another issue is you have to be sliding which on MnK you can slide180 our controller players will not be able to as reliably. Making this lean more towards one input over another."

Inspired by @PodvsEnemies Podcast Versus Enemies episode 54 with @CourtProjects, @ImpetusAlways and @Saint_Kabr (https://open.spotify.com/episode/3obSAgsEW0RBeSjYXOVcgN?si=95ac723a75f749c3). First-choice PvE roll for Arc synergy and burst damage. Seeing as fusion rifles apply the highest Jolt tick damage of any special weapon, it would be rude not to pick or shape a roll. Rapid fire fusions need a fair bit of control with nine bolts being fired, so Arrowhead Break takes the recoil direction to 77, or up the stability through Fluted Barrel or Polygonal Rifling. In the battery, there's nothing to help speed up reloading, so Particle Repeater adds more stability, or Accelerated Coils speeds up charge time. Compulsive Reloader and a Reload Speed Masterwork boosts reload to 100 at the top half of the mag, so your reloads after a kill to proc Voltshot should be as snappy as it's possible to get. On top, the Nanotech Tracer Rockets add both damage and flinch when you proc them with rapid kills - really fun for PvE. Recommended MW: Reload Speed or Stability, with a damage-boosting (Major, Boss or Taken Spec) or Backup Mag mod.|tags: PvE, PvE-Boss, PvE-MajorSpec, PvE-BossSpec, PvE-God, Controller, M+KB
