Word of crota is literally only good for one thing, void burn nightfalls. And this is coming from someone who loves hand cannons.

... AND the Abyss on Crota's End, on either difficulty. ... and it's MASSIVELY overpowered in the Vault. Massively. So... yup. You're wrong.
-
WoC is not massively overpowered in the vault, Explosive Rounds are. Which FB has. So FB still wins in that situation. Only thing is while you are 1-shotting everything, any perks that proc on a crit - or "precision"- kill will be nullified because the explosive rounds will be killing everything.

Except that WoC is void damage. 4-shots minotaurs on normal, one mag per Praetorian. I use WoC to hold the center on Gatekeeper, solo, even on hard. Never have to switch from primary. One shots every single hobgoblin in the Vault except the yellow bars in the final room; those take 3 or 4, I think. I forget. But it is DEFINITELY overpowered, being both void and having explosive rounds. Don't need to worry about negating any precision bonuses because of explosive rounds, since it's a praetorian/Minotaur killer- no precision bonus to be had. Praetorians on hard? No problem. WoC two-pops shields, two rounds from invective to kill. Done. I can solo plates to open the door and the gatekeeper. I'd say it's pretty damn mean. ^_^

Meh, personally I just switch to my void FR, Plug One.1, and wreck shop. Usually 1 bursts minotaurs, 2-3 for Praetorians. But honestly I typically just Ballerhorn Praetorians haha To each their own, WoC is a good gun, I was just pointing out that the high damage potential is mostly due to the higher damage output of Explosive Rounds on Vex enemies, but having a void primary is handy for those shielded enemies, no doubt.

No Fatebringer is better for both of those
-
No way. Not against Praetoreans it's not.
-
Praetorians should be dropped with with a void Shotty/Fusion/Sniper or even Heavy if you feel like you can spare it. I don't even waste my primary ammo on them 9/10 times haha

Edited by Noctroglyph: 5/12/2015 3:04:49 AM3-4 shots if needed. A penance vs wasting heavy. Agree on the shottie, though...[i]Swordbreaker[/i] pretty much OSKs them. My personal preference is my fully auto void [i]Secret Handshake[/i] that empties it's mag in 2 seconds...that thing is just...hella. Return to sender on it with field scout makes it redicubad.

Take word of Crota against oracles and you get the boot

Anyone that uses a damn handgun against oracles gets the boot. Is anyone that stupid? Oracles are [b]VoC[/b] and [b]Corrective Measure [/b]territory. [b]Fatebringer[/b] can't do crap to them by comparison.
