In this part of the video, the speaker discusses various weapon perks and their benefits. They explain “Hill Clip,” which provides instant healing upon reloading after a kill, giving 120 HP to the player and 60 HP to nearby allies. The enhanced version extends the duration to trigger the reload. The speaker also reviews perks in the fourth column: “Demolitionist,” which generates grenade energy with kills and reloads the weapon upon grenade use; “Reverberation,” which increases the blast radius upon kills and is beneficial in crowded game scenarios; and “Incandescent,” a popular perk that causes explosions spreading Scorch to nearby enemies, increasing in effectiveness with higher-tier enemies and Guardians.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the “rapid final blows” trait that causes targets to explode into a pool of radiolarian fluid, similar to the incandescent trait after three rapid kills. The explosion deals minor damage and leaves a damaging pool that lasts for 4 seconds, ticking damage up to 1,123 every half a second. Unfortunately, kills from the pool do not proc incandescent. The speaker emphasizes the usefulness of this trait and suggests various weapon builds that maximize ability regeneration and performance, such as pairing strategist or pugilist with demolitionist, the combination of ambitious assassin and incandescent, and a setup with kill clip and incandescent for those focusing on solar builds. The speaker also mentions personal preferences for multiple roles on sidearms to enhance different aspects of gameplay, noting the versatility and value of these builds in various scenarios.

In this part of the video, the discussion focuses on the effectiveness of certain rocket sidearms, specifically abber Action. The speaker debates the merits of incandescent versus Vol shots but ultimately emphasizes that abber Action is a strong weapon. They highlight the synergistic potential with artifact mods, such as threaded blasts for Tangles and solar fulmination for solar ignitions, noting significant damage increases from these combinations. While incandescent doesn’t interface well with current artifacts, future seasons may change this dynamic. The speaker suggests that abber Action holds its own among special sidearms and recommends it despite the inability to focus for it this week due to time gating. They also mention strategies to quickly obtain Echo ingrams and advise PVP players to consider other options. The segment ends with a call to action for viewers to like the video.
