Synchronic Roulette god roll & best perks

pandapaxxy (PvP / Controller): Recommended MW: Range. Precision(600) Strand Submachine Gun Primary Ammo. "Slickdraw is an incredibly strong perk and this is the first submachine gun with it. You can invest entirely on range without having to worry about handling or using Peacekeepers. Target Lock is the perk of the season so definitely go out and throw this on against Immortals (Adepts). Kill Clip is another good bet if you want a more reliable damage bonus."

pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): Recommended MW: Reload. Precision(600) Strand Submachine Gun Primary Ammo. "Similar to Round Robin I don’t super love Envious Assassin on primaries. It can be nice in swap builds or with another good add-clearing weapon. Kill Clip is interesting as if your magazine is overflown you cannot reload for Kill Clip’s bonus. I would take Envious Assassin as a nice bonus but not a feature you rely on. Target Lock is nice but a quick 25 percent damage bonus immediately is nice."

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 Strand synergy in general content. Precision frame SMG, so you don't have to worry about recoil direction and range is pretty compressed, so go for handling and stability with your barrel. In the mag, High-Caliber Rounds is always good for extra flinch on a bullet hose, but Armor-Piercing is also decent for damaging multiple adds in CQC, Ricochet Rounds can be run or just get extra stability and Reload speed with Flared Magwell. There's not much PvE-wise in the first trait column - Envious Assassin is much better on a Special or Power weapon, but it's worth it for the occasional overfilled mag. In the second trait column Hatchling spawns a Threadling on rapid kills to play with, and lets you tap into Strand fragments, and the Nanotech Tracer Rockets add both damage and flinch when you proc them - really fun for PvE. Recommended MW: Handling or Reload Speed, with a damage-boosting (Minor or Taken Spec) or Backup Mag mod.|tags: PvE, PvE-MinorSpec, PvE-God, Controller, M+KB

There's not much PvE-wise in the first trait column but Pulse Monitor could be useful if you're out of cover to use Target Lock and are taking damage, to reload you magazine to keep your damage output up, and the Nanotech Tracer Rockets add both damage and flinch when you proc them - really fun for PvE.

Datto's Thoughts, Synchronic Roulette. This is a Strand SMG, 600 RPM, so slower firing and wouldn't you know it, it too has Hatchling as a perk and I'm pretty sure that is the overwhelming favorite right now. In the first column, we have some decent options, Envious Assassin, Keep Away, Pulse Monitor, I might skew towards Pulse Monitor or Under Pressure. Again, Envious on a primary I'm not completely sold on, but it's not like it's a BAD option or anything like that. This might be more of a "pick what you like," kind of option, except for Slickdraw, don't pick that. Pugilist in the second column is also somewhat of an option for those of you with Strand builds as they can to be pretty melee focused. We're looking for range in our minor perks, little Arrowhead Brake again and either range or stability depending on your preference. pve. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlV7QZ5P0Mk&t=353s
