In this part of the video, the presenter discusses various weapons and their perks, focusing on pulse rifles, scout rifles, and sidearms. They highlight the Oversoul Edict, a 540 RPM arc pulse rifle from the Crota’s End raid, which can roll with Volt Shot and has perks like Inline Action and Demolitionist. The presenter then moves on to a lightweight frame 200 RPM scout rifle from the Season of the Plunder, which can also roll with Volt Shot or Explosive Payload, though it’s challenging to obtain. Next is the Brigin Law, a rapid-fire frame arc sidearm praised for its effectiveness and compatibility with Volt Shot, Feeding Frenzy, or Threat Detector. The segment concludes with a mention of the popular Eolos SMG Version 3 from Season of the Seraph, highlighting that it can be farmed from the Operation Seraph Shield.

In this part of the video, the discussion begins with an exotic Pinnacle Mission Volt Shot SMG, highlighting its essential perks like Feeding Frenzy paired with Volt Shot, making it a formidable weapon despite being an aggressive 720 RPM SMG. The focus then shifts to arc special weapons, starting with the less favored glaive nzx whisper from season 17. More attention is given to the IR of Loop, a Volt Shot rapid-fire frame fusion rifle from Neomuna, recommending pairing it with lead from gold or compulsive reloader. Additionally, the loaded question, an arc version of the high-impact frame solar fusion rifle aramite, is discussed, stressing the importance of perks like autoloading holster and demolitionist. The video concludes by praising the dead weight shotgun from Gambit, mentioning its powerful rapid-fire frame and versatile perk options, such as autoloading holster and demolitionist, despite its extensive perk pool.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses some notable Arc weapons in Destiny 2. They recommend investing Gambit engrams in the Dead Weight shotgun due to its effectiveness. They mention that Arc snipers, particularly the Gallu RR3 with Overflow and Focus Fury perks, are sparse but still valuable. The Path of Least Resistance is highlighted as a useful Arc Trace rifle, especially on cenot warlocks, despite the nerf to double special weapons. The video praises the Forbearance grenade launcher from the Vow of the Disciple Raid, calling it an exceptional weapon due to its ambitious assassin and chain reaction perks along with the soul drinker trait. For Arc heavy weapons, Storm Chaser, an aggressive three-round burst linear fusion rifle from the Duality dungeon, is recommended for its good ammo economy and decent perks, despite linear fusion rifles not being the current meta.
00:12:00
In this part of the video, the speaker discusses optimal perks for various weapons. For linear fusion rifles, Firing Line is highly recommended, though Frenzy and Vorpal are also viable. Vorpal provides only a 10% damage boost for heavy weapons. The described linear fusion rifle is good but not the best compared to the cataclysmic. For heavy grenade launchers, the Wendigo is highlighted. Ideal perks include autoloading holster and explosive light, with Spike grenades in column two. Wendigo is a Nightfall weapon.
In the category of Arc LMGs, a featured weapon from the Season of the Witch is praised for its excellent perk pool, including reconstruction, rewind rounds, and demolitionist in column three. Column four offers sword logic, bait and switch, and Target lock, with sword logic and bait and switch giving significant damage boosts. Target lock is effective if shots are not missed. The weapon is lauded as potentially the best LMG in the game.
For swords, a standout choice for DPS is mentioned, favoring Relentless Strikes and Surrounded perks, comparable in impact to the lament. The speaker notes it performs well with light attacks, making it highly effective.

The Hothead is praised for its perks, particularly field prep and clown cartridge, despite being somewhat outclassed by newer rocket launchers with bait and switch capabilities. The segment concludes by inviting viewers to share their favorite roles for the Hothead in the comments.
