pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "Oh boy, did I not expect to see another Adaptive Frame auto rifle. We just got Khvostov, Summoner, and Ros Arago IV. And all those weapons are strong within their own right. VS Pyroelectric Propellent has one trick up its sleeve and that's Jolting Feedback. You can pair this with Attrition Orbs for some extra orb generation, or Eddy Current for faster reload when Amplified. The other weapons fit into their specific elemental roles and that applies here too. The more you like Arc the more this weapon shines." Recommended MW: Reload Speed.

Inspired by @PodvsEnemies episode 120 from 29 October 2024 (https://open.spotify.com/episode/3tLWOteO62mxx6Yh2Ll4k3?si=bb40d9918c564281) with @CourtProjects, @Saint_Kabr and @ImpetusAlways (PvE PvE-MinorSpec PvE-EndGame PvE-God M+KB Controller): First-choice PvE pick for add clearing minor enemies in general and end-game, underleveled content, particularly with an Arc build. VS Pyroelectric Propellant is funky-looking arc adaptive auto-rifle with very decent stats. At base, 42 Range equates to 25.60m while ADS, 60 Handling is 0.35s ready, 0.28s ADS speed and 0.32s stow speed, while the Reload Speed of 50 is a 1.81s reload. To be honest, you'll be good with pretty much any barrel and magazine perk combination (except maybe Full Bore) - play into your own preferences. If you are looking towards the new-to-season-25 Jolting Feedback trait perk in the second column though, larger magazines work well - you might be able to apply Jolt to three targets before you need to reload. For arc builds, you can pair this with Eddy Current in the first column for gunfeel boosts while Amplified. Jolting Feedback is a great end-game trait perk, applying Jolt on the 16th bullet (12 when Amplified) - and one fewer (15 and 11) when Enhanced - and not requiring a kill to proc. Maybe pair with Sparks of Amplitude, Ions and Discharge or Facets of Awakening and Purpose to synergise with arc builds. The Bray Legacy origin trait is useful in PvE, working in the background to add ability energy to the one closest to a full charge on every tick of weapon damage. Recommended MW: your choice depending on your preference, with a Backup Mag mod or, when masterworked, a Synergy mod for additional Ionic Traces for more frequent Amplification, or Stunloader when there's a matching artifact mod.|tags:PvE PvE-MinorSpec PvE-EndGame PvE-God M+KB Controller
