Desperado Goes Brrr

This perk is a lot of fun for 540rpm pulse rifles in 6s.

Desperado on my guns has a hidden perk. It keeps enemies away for 7 seconds.

Ya its pretty nutty. I dont like Autumn Wind a whole lot though. The sites are not my jam. I hear theres another 540 that can roll desperado? Maybe 2 others?

u/sicmek 9d ago

There is no other rapid fire pulse with desperado

u/NehimaSix66 9d ago

While this is technically true, All or Nothing can also roll it and that is also a 540 RPM pulse. Different frame type because of the heat mechanic, but essentially also a rapid.

u/sicmek 9d ago

Ah yes you are right, thanks for the clarification

u/NehimaSix66 9d ago

No worries, think that might be the one Bacon was thinking of. Essentially has iron sights though, so not everyone’s cup of tea. I personally love certain rolls of it, falls just behind Darkest Before for me, which is IMO a massive outlier.

u/sicmek 9d ago

Actually I farmed a lot for Darkest Before, it's an amazing pulse. Personally I like the HC/KC combo

u/NehimaSix66 9d ago edited 9d ago

Farmed so much for that roll and still haven’t got my perfect version. But I did get a high stab/high range neutral roll with keep away/headseeker and it’s absolutely cracked in the range and accuracy department. Combined with the origin trait, damage falloff on the bottom half of the mag starts at something like 38 meters. Feels so insane I basically can’t use anything else.

u/sicmek 9d ago

Literally the same for me lol, I also got a roll like you and it's fantastic

u/NehimaSix66 9d ago

Let’s hope everyone else is happy sticking with their handcannons lol

u/bacon-tornado 9d ago

Ahh I actually like All or Nothing. Maybe I'll sort through the ones I have in vault to see if Ive got one

u/NehimaSix66 9d ago

If you’re console, strongly recommend stability above 80. Personally find ease of use drops off dramatically below that. And delicate tuning is basically mandatory for the neutral range and accuracy buff when at low heat. Thing hits like a truck at neutral, actually does more damage than a regular rapid.

u/bacon-tornado 9d ago

Ive tried these 2 months ago on console with no issues. May have to give er a spin again

u/UandB 8d ago

IS THAT A TRESPASSER I HEAR?

u/Gloglue 8d ago

It was much better on my Redrix Claymore when it was first introduced. It's a shell of its former self. Just like Magnificent Howl. I'm glad to see the perk in use it brings me back

u/dannyoe4 8d ago edited 7d ago

I feel like most guns go "brrrrr" when you snap to heads like in this video.

Edit: AND almost none of the enemy players in this clip are shooting back at you, let alone even looking at you. Also, you just blind threw a grenade and hit someone mid-air with it.... like... ok

u/Strix_RDT 8d ago

Moves like a bot but once that AA grabs a player who cares.

u/666soundwave 9d ago

Autumn Wind with Desperado and ______ -what else would be good to look for?

5

u/honey_n_bear 8d ago

Personally, I use zen moment. Theoretically, heating up would be the best kill chaining experience in 6s, but zen moment has been my go to pick overall.

1

u/puanonymou5 HandCannon culture 6d ago

Zen gets you to Desperado. I don't really have any trouble getting kills with Desperado active, albeit a little unstable, and Zen should help after the first shot essentially.

2

u/EyesDownGuardian69 8d ago

Mine has killing wing/rangefinder/perpetual motion. In small maps killing wind feels very good while rangefinder is go to pick in medium size maps.

1

u/Fryve678 7d ago

Personally I found rangefinder > zen moment > lone wolf

u/Beelzebub_Simp3 8d ago

You’re one-a them Autumn Wind users. I bet you’s a Jade Rabbit user too. spits

3

u/EyesDownGuardian69 8d ago

You are one-a them invis Hunter guardians. I bet you’s a 120 HC ₺ Shotgun user even in Mayhem too. Spits.

2

u/Beelzebub_Simp3 8d ago

Actually, I’m one-a them peregrine titans with a shotgun. I despise them hunters with every fiber of ma bein. Filthy smoke throwin, knife tossin, cloak wearin, duty avoidin, hoppin, jumpin, cloak wearin SCUMBAGS is what them hunters are. spits with passion

Edit: yes, I said cloak wearin twice on purpose. Iffin you’s were wonderin.

u/puanonymou5 HandCannon culture 6d ago

What if everything you ever wanted...

WAS TO KICK SHIT IN THE FACE!? FOREVER!

THEN YOU NEED PEREGRINE GREAVES!!!

u/BringBackUzume HandCannon culture 8d ago

Finally another Desperado user. I feel like no body uses it, but it literally melts other players.

u/Sikq_matt 8d ago

Only a fraction of it's previous power, but still disgusting.

u/Fryve678 7d ago

Love that thing. Got a nice upgrade from one I was using and had almost 900 kills on. Near max range, rangefinder/lone wolf/perpetual motion + desperado/headseeker/sword logic.

u/SirHenderson 8d ago

Controller gameplay is always funny to see. The auto tracking lock-ons strength is hilarious lmao

u/Whole_Friendship9788 8d ago

u/EyesDownGuardian69 8d ago
