pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "When I heard that Vision of Confluence was getting a refresh I was hoping it would get something unique like Doom of Chelchis and it does! Incandescent and Firefly together for double booms. You also get Heal Clip, in the same column as Incandescent (boo) but that means you can pair it with Frenzy for even faster reloads. I was pleasantly surprised by this one particular refresh." Recommended MW: Handling.

pandapaxxy (PvP / Controller): "When talking or taking Vision of Confluence into PvP you really have limited options. You have a pretty slow 1.00s TtK with 3c1b on all but T0 resilience. Zen Moment will help you keep your bullets where they need to go and Explosive Payload will make it harder for your enemies to fight back. Kill Clip allows you to drop a shot and go for 3c on all resiliences except T5 and below instead going for 2c1b. Definitely easier for kill chaining." Recommended MW: Stability.

Adamsdown_Boy written v8.2.0.2 (PvE PvE-MinorSpec PvE-EndGame PvE-God M+KB Controller): First-choice PvE pick for use against Minor adds in both general at-level or better, and in end-game underleveled content. Unfortunately, while Vision of Confluence is a solid scout rifle, it's in the subfamily with the lowest damage output and there are other options which offer much the same set of perks. At base, the stats are decent by comparison with its peers - 46 Range and 20 Zoom equates to 74.93m ADS and 37.46m hipfire, 42 Stability is ×1.1495 flinch resist at 100 Resilience, 45 Handling is 0.41s ready, 0.34s ADS and 0.39s stow speed, 47 Reload Speed is a 2.04s reload and Recoil Direction is 75 (but with the Precision frame intrinsic, you can pretty much ignore the RD stat). The barrel perk can be used to improve the Handling, and the magazine perk can be used to help out a little with Reload Speed and Stability. If you don't already have one, the trait perk combination of Demolitionist and Desperate Measures work together well to provide grenade energy to keep the up to ×1.3 damage boost running. The Timelost Magazine origin trait is very strong for PvE - essentially, the Thresh trait perk for free to build your super quickly on kills, and then providing a ×2 magazine size for 20s after your super finishes, refilling the mag from your reserves. Recommended MW: Handling, with a Backup Mag mod or, when fully enhanced, Synergy to create Firesprites 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-EndGame PvE-God M+KB Controller

Inspired by @PodvsEnemies episode 131 from 5 March 2025 (https://open.spotify.com/episode/2TAB3PL2u2Qigv2YejzhGJ?si=09c3555ccf5c4dcc) with @CourtProjects, @Saint_Kabr and @ImpetusAlways (PvE PvE-MinorSpec PvE-EndGame PvE-God M+KB Controller): First-choice PvE pick for use against Minor adds in both general at-level or better, and in end-game underleveled content. Unfortunately, while Vision of Confluence is a solid scout rifle, it's in the subfamily with the lowest damage output and there are other options which offer much the same set of perks. At base, the stats are decent by comparison with its peers - 46 Range and 20 Zoom equates to 74.93m ADS and 37.46m hipfire, 42 Stability is ×1.1495 flinch resist at 100 Resilience, 45 Handling is 0.41s ready, 0.34s ADS and 0.39s stow speed, 47 Reload Speed is a 2.04s reload and Recoil Direction is 75 (but with the Precision frame intrinsic, you can pretty much ignore the RD stat). The barrel perk can be used to improve the Handling, and the magazine perk can be used to help out a little with Reload Speed and Stability. The first trait perk column offers the option for double damage perks - this is the only primary that can roll with Incandescent, with kills spreading scorch and AoE damage. Any ignition kills will proc Paracausal Affinity's ×1.2 damage boost, making this a natural pairing, but Frenzy for ×1.15 damage and maxxed Handling and Reload Speed, or Explosive Payload for ×1.1 crit and ×1.15 bodyshot damage and Firefly for a solar AoE detonation and +50 Reload Speed will also help spread scorch damage over a wider area, to help even more with add clearing. The Timelost Magazine origin trait is very strong for PvE - essentially, the Thresh trait perk for free to build your super quickly on kills, and then providing a ×2 magazine size for 20s after your super finishes, refilling the mag from your reserves.

What these Vision of Confluence perks do

Rewind Rounds

Upon emptying the Magazine: Refills 60% of the number of Hits landed (rounded up) into the Magazine from reserves. Hits are counted from either your last reload or the last time the perk was triggered. Does not require Direct Hits. Requires firing 28.75% of the Magazine Capacity for the refill to activate. Cannot load the Magazine beyond its base capacity. Hits after triggering a refill do not count while the Rewind Rounds buff is active (1? second). Adaptive Burst Linear Fusion Rifle behavior: • Each individual bolt in the burst counts as a Hit • Refill amount is uniquely 14% of the number of Hits rounded up (numbers are subject to change once we get more data points)

Firefly

On Precision Kills: • Target explodes, dealing 104 [80] Solar damage in a 4 meter radius • Grants 50 Reload Speed for 6 seconds

Explosive Payload

Splits off 50% of the weapon's bodyshot damage into an Explosive Payload that detonates on impact. The Payload deals 30% increased damage in PvE and staggers PvE Combatants more. On Hand Cannons, the Payload deals 7% decreased damage in PvP. The remaining Impact damage portion receives an increased Crit Multiplier to compensate for the Payload not benefitting from crits. [PvE] Total damage is increased by 15% of the weapon's bodyshot damage. For crits, the overall increase is roughly equal to 15% divided by the Crit Multiplier. [PvP] Total damage remains roughly the same but can vary by 1-2% in either direction for crits.

Frenzy

After being in Combat for 12 seconds: Grants 15% increased damage, 100 Handling, and 100 Reload Speed for 7.2 seconds. Works and can activate while stowed. Dealing and receiving damage refreshes the buff duration. For Frenzy, being in Combat is defined as having either dealt or received damage within the last 5 seconds. Self-damage and environmental damage do not count.

Heal Clip

Finishing a reload within 5.3? seconds of a Kill grants Cure x2 to you and Cure x1 to allies within 15 meters.

Incandescent

Weapon Kills trigger a Solar explosion that applies 30 Scorch Stacks (40 with Ember of Ashes) and deals up to 30 damage to enemies within 4 meters of the target. Killing Elite or higher tier Combatants and Players increases the radius to 8 meters and applies 10 more Scorch Stacks. Scorch damage can be increased through Weapon Damage Buffs.

Kill Clip

Finishing a reload within 3.6 seconds of a kill grants 25% increased damage for 5 seconds. Stowing the weapon removes the buff. Does not buff the Splash/Explosive damage elements of other perks.

Zen Moment

Weapon Hits grant 1 Stack of the perk for 1 second up to the maximum of 5? Stacks. Benefits granted per Stack: • Grants ?% Flinch Resistance • Reduces Visual Weapon Shake by 15% • Reduces Reticle Bounce by 15% Stacks gained per Weapon Hit by weapon type: • Hand Cannons, Scout Rifles: 2? • Pulse Rifles, Sidearms: 1.5 • Other Weapons: 1

Paracausal Affinity

Scoring a Kill from any source matching the elemental alignment of the weapon grants 20% increased damage for 6 seconds. Buff can activate while stowed. Light Alignment: Arc, Solar, Void Darkness Alignment: Stasis, Strand

Desperate Measures

Weapon Kills grant 'Desperate Measures x1' (DMx1), increasing damage by 10% for 7 seconds. Grenade or Melee Kills grant 20% increased damage for 7 seconds (DMx2). Scoring another Grenade or Melee Kill with DMx2 active increases this to 30% (DMx3). Can be activated while stowed. Weapon, Grenade, and Melee Kills refresh the buff duration.

Demolitionist

Weapon Kills grant 10% Grenade Ability Energy. Kills with Sniper Rifles, Shotguns, Glaives, and Fusion Rifles grant 20%. Using your Grenade Ability refills the Magazine with a 3 second cooldown. Ability energy gained may be significantly decreased based on your selected ability's Chunk Energy Scalar. Learn more about this mechanic in our explainer blog post on the Clarity website.

Alloy Magazine

Linearly grants a Reload Duration Multiplier as your magazine drops from 50% capacity to empty. Reload Duration Multiplier scales from 0.9x at 50% capacity to 0.8x with an empty magazine.
