Why Does No One Use Chaos Reshaped?
Why is Chaos Reshaped so underused? Seeing as how a lot of our premium damage rotations require us to stay on one weapon until we’re out of ammo (Still Hunt, Truth, 1K, Leviathan’s, etc.), having a special to swap to that’s been passively ramping up it’s damage is quite convenient, no? Chaos Reshaped offers a 35% damage bonus after having been in combat for an extended period of time (such as after dumping your main DPS weapon) in addition to a minor healing effect. Bait and Switch only offers 30%, albeit more consistently. Is there any particular reason why it isn’t used, aside from limited availability?

Too many damage encounters give you a break before damage begins, where you’d lose your buff and need to wait 30 seconds for it to get back up. Many damage phases are shorter than 30 seconds.

Because it’s either not on my weapons or theres better perks on them

Court's note about it starting and stopping health regen has been removed, maybe it is fixed now? or functioning differently

I don’t know if it’s bugged, but on Apex the solar SMG it’s great. And the healing pulse is very good. It certainly isn’t the best damage perk, because there’s too much setup for a boss phase for instance, but in term of survivability it’s a good one if you use a weapon centric build. It doesn’t require a kill like healclip which can be harder to sustain at -50.

5 RepliesBiggest reason is that putting chaos reshaped on a bunch of weapons has shown off the flaws in the perk. 30 seconds is a looong timer to not only activate in general but to maintain being “in combat” for prior to DPS. Unfortunately a lot of fights have downtime before DPS or the damage phase is just ending at 30s. And if x2 falls off, your damage phase is really bad and basically unrecoverable. BnS is a lot more reliable, and hardcore teams tend to opt for Aggregate Charge or Elemental Honing instead (with the same max damage bonus)

3 RepliesAfaik, Chaos Reshaped 2x is bugged (and will probably never be fixed).
