CoolGuy just did his breakdown on the buff to bottom tree Stryker Titan (Code of the Juggernaut). It was already really good but the buffs honestly put it over the top for me. I don't think it's going to get to stay this strong but I will enjoy it while it last. You can easily run around 1 punching people in the Crucible or make any aggressive frame sniper into a 1 body shot kill.
Sturm can 1-shot now under the right conditions:
Everything's great except smallbore, that might let you down. Full choke or rifled barrel are still the way to go for Crucible shotties.IS moving target and snapshot sights with a tac mag and small bore a good roll for a retold in PvP.
As far as energy pulses, a good Right Side of Wrong can still do you just fine. Last Perdition & Swift Ride are also right up there now.
That's fair enough. It seems like I should just carry on with the Forsaken campaign for now then. I've been grinding Gambit to get Bygones, Trust and Bad Omens which I have and I have three exotics now though I am only wearing Young Ahamkara's Spine.
Bygones is great, I play with lots of hardcore players who still main it.
You 100% want to finish the Forsaken campaign before doing anything else, it's not actually that long. That will unlock...a lot of really great stuff you'll want to get into.
