pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "Rimestealer with no Headstone is a damn shame. Dragonfly is great for clearing waves of enemies and Golden Tricorn is huge damage. But not having an ability to start Rimestealer without an ability hurts this for me." Recommended MW: Reload Speed.

Inspired by @PodvsEnemies episode 136 from 1 April 2025 (https://open.spotify.com/episode/6I828LxsIqdth4iIlSYRmG?si=8022df8ede664223) with @CourtProjects, @Saint_Kabr and @ImpetusAlways (PvE PvE-MinorSpec PvE-God PvE-EndGame M+KB Controller): First-choice PvE pick for clearing Minor adds, Elites, Champions and Minibosses in both general at-level or better, and end-game underleveled content. Qua Furor V is in a good subfamily for damage so if you don't have a decent stasis LMG, it might be worth a look. At base, by comparison with its peers, the stats are poor - 34 Range equates to 46.81m ADS and 29.26m hipfire before damage dropoff, 48 Stability is ×1.1630 flinch resist at 100 Resilience, 42 Handling is 0.39s ready, 0.41s ADS and 0.37s stow speed, 40 Reload Speed is a 5.04s reload(!), Recoil Direction is 58, Zoom is 16, and magazine size is 63 (max 91). With 0/1/2/3 reserves mods, total ammo is 435/489/544/571 (max 571). You'll probably need a bit of help with either Recoil Direction or Stability to help hit crits. Then, looking at the glacial reload time, Reload Speed is the priority but the combat effect magazine perks are also decent. In the first trait perk column, if you're clearing adds, it should be easy to get to five stacks of Feeding Frenzy for maxxed out Reload Speed and a ×0.8 animation multiplier. For damage, One For All provides ×1.35 damage for 10s for hitting three enemies or Dragonfly provides a Stasis AoE explosion on a crit kill. If you're interested, Qua Furor translates from Latin to "as rage" or "in the capacity of rage". The Wild Card origin trait is fun, dropping Telesto-style "experimental submunitions" on kills for additional add-clearing potential. Recommended MW: Reload Speed or Handling, with a Backup Mag mod or, when masterworked, Synergy to create Stasis shards or, when the artifact mod's around, Stunloader. Also, don't forget to check whether there's a useful Seasonal Fragile mod for the activity you're running.|tags:PvE PvE-MinorSpec PvE-God PvE-EndGame M+KB Controller

Inspired by @PodvsEnemies episode 136 from 1 April 2025 (https://open.spotify.com/episode/6I828LxsIqdth4iIlSYRmG?si=8022df8ede664223) with @CourtProjects, @Saint_Kabr and @ImpetusAlways (PvE PvE-Boss PvE-BossSpec PvE-God PvE-EndGame M+KB Controller): First-choice PvE pick for sustained Boss damage both general at-level or better, and end-game underleveled content, particularly with a Prismatic build. Qua Furor V is in a good subfamily for damage so if you don't have a decent stasis LMG, it might be worth a look. At base, by comparison with its peers, the stats are poor - 34 Range equates to 46.81m ADS and 29.26m hipfire before damage dropoff, 48 Stability is ×1.1630 flinch resist at 100 Resilience, 42 Handling is 0.39s ready, 0.41s ADS and 0.37s stow speed, 40 Reload Speed is a 5.04s reload(!), Recoil Direction is 58, Zoom is 16, and magazine size is 63 (max 91). With 0/1/2/3 reserves mods, total ammo is 435/489/544/571 (max 571). You'll probably need a bit of help with either Recoil Direction or Stability to help hit crits. Then, for sustained damage, maximise the mag size with the magazine perk, or choose a perk to boost reload speed. In the first trait perk column, for a boss DPS roll, Triple Tap in the first trait perk column will extend the magazine size, while Elemental Honing in the second can provide a ×1.35 damage boost for 20s for cycling through all 5 elemental damage types with your abilities and other weapons. If you're interested, Qua Furor translates from Latin to "as rage" or "in the capacity of rage". The Wild Card origin trait is fun, dropping Telesto-style "experimental submunitions" on kills for additional add-clearing potential.
