pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "Shadow Price returns to us, is it better than before? Depends on what you’re looking to do. Overflow is the best option in column 3 but has no synergy with the best perk in column 4. Voltshot requires reloads to work and Overflow bypasses and does not allow you to reload when the magazine is larger than normal. Strategist works better for Voltshot but does not reload your weapon faster. Permeability works with Strategist as both use your class ability as activation points. One for All is the only good damage perk in the fourth column." Recommended MW: Reload Speed.

pandapaxxy (PvP / M+KB / Controller): "Over in PvP you could utilize Gutshot Straight for better body shot damage allowing you to down T7 resilience guardians and under in 6c1b instead of T5 and below. While not the best it’s still better than the column 3 perks where nothing really stands out as good for PvP. Surplus gives the best benefits but requires you to hold your abilities (also useful on multi-charge abilities), and Strategist gives some stability after using your class ability you won’t have that bonus for every gunfight." Recommended MW: Range.

Adamsdown_Boy - information as at v8.0.0.6 (PvE / PvE-MinorSpec / PvE-EndGame / PvE-God / M+KB / Controller): PvE pick for add-clearing Minor enemies in end-game content. The reprised Shadow Price comes back into a very competitive arc auto rifle ecosystem and, while it's not a bad option, with good stats, it doesn't really offer anything new either so only look at this if you don't have similar arc AR options already. Being a precision frame, you can ignore recoil direction, so just use the barrel and mag perks to improve the gunfeel further and boost reload speed. If you're looking for a Voltshot roll, reload is king, so pair that with Stats for All or Surplus in the first trait perk column. The Vanguard's Vindication origin trait is useful, if not very noticeable. Recommended MW: Reload Speed, with a Backup Mag mod.

For add clearing, the SOFA combination is always attractive to boost all the gunfeel stats and boost damage by +35%, or you can pair Stats for All with Surrounded if you're playing in CQC ranges and gain a +40% (+47% when enhanced) damage boost. The Vanguard's Vindication origin trait is useful, if not very noticeable. Recommended MW: Handling or Stability, with a Backup Mag mod.

Adamsdown_Boy - information as at v8.0.0.6 (PvE / PvE-MinorSpec / PvE-EndGame / PvE-God / M+KB / Controller): PvE pick for add-clearing Minor enemies in end-game content, for Titans using Hazardous Propulsion. The reprised Shadow Price comes back into a very competitive arc auto rifle ecosystem and, while it's not a bad option, with good stats, it doesn't really offer anything new either so only look at this if you don't have similar arc AR options already. Being a precision frame, you can ignore recoil direction, so just use the barrel and mag perks to improve the gunfeel further and boost reload speed. For Titans who need their barricade back as fast as possible to use Hazardous Propulsion with, Strategist speeds up class ability regeneration in the first trait perk column, and you can pair this with either One For All for a damage boost of +35%, or Surrounded if you're playing in CQC ranges and gain a +40% (+47% when enhanced) damage boost. The Vanguard's Vindication origin trait is useful, if not very noticeable. Recommended MW: Handling or Stability, with a Backup Mag mod.

What these Shadow Price perks do

Voltshot

Permeability

Magazine Refill cannot be triggered again without stowing the weapon first. Kinetic weapons lose their Passive Damage Bonus against non-Boss PVE Combatants (10% on Primary, 15% on Special).

Strategist
