MIDA Macro-Tool god roll & best perks

Inspired by @Saint_Kabr and @ImpetusAlways (PvE PvE-Boss PvE-MajorSpec PvE-God PvE-EndGame M+KB Controller): First-choice PvE roll for burst damage against Banes, Elites Champions and Minibosses and bulkier minor adds in both general at-level or better, and end-game underleveled content. MIDA Macro-Tool is a precision frame underneath, providing ×0.8 horizontal recoil, but is officially a MIDA Synergy frame, which when paired with MIDA Multi-Tool boosts sprint speed by ×1.1 and progress the MIDA Software Trait with kills. The stats are decent by comparison with its peers, and are helped at Tier 4/5 when barrel and magazine perks are enhanced - see https://d2foundry.gg/w/2699423382 for how the weapon stats impact in-game performance. From the @Mossy-Max spreadsheet at https://www.destiny2.science/ base Magazine size is 5 (max 7) and total ammo is 19. Looking at One-Two Punch as the damage perk, using Full Choke as the barrel perk reduces pellet spread a little, or look for one that helps with Handling. For the magazine perk, Assault Mag ups the fire rate by 5RPM or boost magazine size. To pair with One-Two Punch in the second column to rovides +150% melee damage for 3s for hitting all 12 pellets (10 when enhanced), you'll need a first column perk to improve or bypass reloads. Slideshot is probably top of the tree, refilling 15% of the mag (that's 1 shot at base or 2 when the mag is maxed out at 7) and boosting range and stability by +20 each (+22 when enhanced) when you slide, or Grave Robber refills your magazine on an elemental melee hit or any melee kill. Alternatively, Envious Assassin overflows the magazine to up to ×3 capacity at 10% of mag size per kill with primary weapons and 20% with heavy (12.5%/22.5% enhanced) before readying. Finally, Threat Detector which, when you're within 15m of 1/2+ enemies, adds +15/40 Stability (+19/44 enhanced), +18/60 Reload Speed (+22/64 enhanced) with a ×0.9/0.81 animation scalar and +25/100 (+29/100 enhanced) Handling. For the Origin Trait, Roar of Battle grants +10 Stability and Handling for 6s, after dealing or taking damage every 0.5s or so for 2s. Recommended MW: Handling, with your preferred choice of mod/enhanced mod to boost mag size, weapon stats, ammo regeneration, or elemental pickups for builds - and don't forget to check any available seasonal fragile mods.|tags:PvE PvE-Boss PvE-MajorSpec PvE-God PvE-EndGame M+KB Controller

Look for a barrel perk that helps with Handling, and then for the magazine perk, Assault Mag ups the fire rate by 5RPM or boost magazine size. For dealing with groups of enemies, there's a natural trait perk combination once you get a kill with another weapon of Discord which, for 7s (8s when enhanced) refunds a shot from thin air on kills and also grants a ×0.75 ADS animation modifier and improves accuracy, and Master of Arms which provides a ×1.15 damage boost for 7s (8s enhanced) after a kill with any weapon, with a second stack of ×1.25 for 4s (5s enhanced) on any kills with the first stack active. For the Origin Trait, Roar of Battle grants +10 Stability and Handling for 6s, after dealing or taking damage every 0.5s or so for 2s.
