pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): Recommended MW: Blast Radius. Adaptive(120) Void Grenade Launcher Heavy Ammo. "Regnant is a great grenade launcher. It has incredible utility with Envious Assassin to overflow the magazine and Explosive Light for good dps. You can also roll a similar weapon to Veles-X with Repulsor Brace for an overshield and Destabilizing Rounds to grant volatile to your enemies. It can either clear some adds or deal some great damage."

Datto (PvE, MKB): "First column, Auto-Loading or Envious Assassin are the top choices, but for different reasons. You want Auto for any sort of weapon swap meta or in stuff where you want the convenience of an auto reload, you want Envious for times where you need the ability to lay into something with as many grenades as humanly possible. It varies from activity to activity in terms of what you actually want or need though. Second column, the choice is quite clear: Explosive Light. Orbs drive one of the main engines of buildcrafting right now and therefore, orbs of power should basically be everywhere, which means you might as well just be getting a near permanent damage bonus to your GL. The only other thing I'm considering is Destabilizing Rounds, which is purple Incandescent more or less, but I am STILL not sold on the perk just yet, not until I try out some void build stuff in the future. Spike Grenade is a good choice provided you're hitting targets directly with grenades, but most other things aren't too great, and then we'd like some sort of Blast Radius increase, with the Masterwork being up to you for the most part. Handling is good for both Auto-Loading and Envious, velocity is fine, blast radius is fine, probably not reload though."

pandapaxxy (PvP / Controller): Recommended MW: Blast Radius. Adaptive(120) Void Grenade Launcher Heavy Ammo. "In PvP there are not a lot of interesting rolls for grenade launchers. You can roll Proximity Grenades for really reliable OHKs. Rangefinder makes the trajectory faster and Disruption Break can also help if you splash someone instead of getting that OHK, swapping to your kinetic for a 50 percent damage bonus. This can also help in 6s as any of your teammates get the 50 percent damage bonus after you break their shield. Helpful if you can coordinate with your team but also a nice bonus if you get it going."

Inspired by @PodvsEnemies Podcast vs Enemies episode 55 (https://open.spotify.com/show/36OTFinErCUBrCzu6BaYbo) with @Saint_Kabr, @CourtProjects and @ImpetusAlways. First-choice PvE roll for void synergy. Shapeable. Essentially a void Wendigo with poorer stats, but with access to enhanced traits. You'll be using this roll for add clearing, so you'll want to crank up the blast radius with your barrel with Volatile Launch, High Explosive Ordnance in the magazine, and a Blast Radious Masterwork. Repulsor Brace as your support perk in the first trait column gives you a void overshield for void-debuffed kills, which is exactly what Destabilizing Rounds sets you up for, as your signature perk in the second trait column, making targets near a kill volatile, including chunkier ones for easier clean-up with the next shot. This combination should make you a bit of a walking tank in add-dense areas, as long as you have ammo. Recommended MW: Blast Radius, with a damage-boosting (Major or Taken Spec) or Backup Mag mod|tags: PvE, PvE-MinorSpec, PvE-God, PvE-EndGame, Controller, M+KB

What these Regnant perks do

Rocket Launchers: 25% increased Impact and Explosive damage. (Does not affect Wolfpack Rounds)

Spike Grenades

Increases Grenade Impact damage: • 12.12% increase on Special Grenade Launchers • 12.5% increase on Power Grenade Launchers Due to the ratio of Detonation and Impact damage being tied to the Blast Radius stat on Grenade Launchers, a lower stat will provide a slightly higher overall damage increase.
