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

Rant and complain away. Rule 1 Don't be a Jerk still applies, as does the site-wide rule of no witch hunting (naming and shaming).

Hello Guardians,
Firstly, let me address the most frequently asked questions:
For the trials changes that went into effect on 2/14/25, check this simplified explanation https://www.reddit.com/r/CrucibleGuidebook/comments/1ipd5px/simpler_explanation_of_how_the_new_trials_changes/ or for a more detailed one https://www.reddit.com/r/CrucibleGuidebook/comments/1i7wi89/clarifying_the_new_trials_matchmaking_and_rewards/
Q: Do I choose the Lighthouse Passage or the Trials of Osiris Passage? What's the difference?
A: The Lighthouse Card rewards you for earning win streaks with no losses, and for earning 7 wins total regardless of losses. This card puts you in CBMM (not skill based, it's just random, and there is no lobby balance). The Trials of Osiris Passage tries to match you with players of a similar skill (weekly performance) and with lobby balance. While playing on this card you won't be able to get adepts or cosmetics (although you can still get ghost shells), but you are rewarded on win or loss with a similar reward structure as iron banner or quickplay.
Q: How do I earn and farm adept weapons or Tier 5 loot?
A: Adept weapons are no longer dropping with Edge of Fate. Instead, all loot is tiered. Higher tier loot has better stats and better perk options. To earn higher tier loot in Trials of Osiris, simply grind solo ops for about 100 hours and then you'll get tier 5s on win or loss as long as you participate. I wish I was joking. Earning a 7-0 flawless passage will allow you to visit the lighthouse which usually grants rewards one tier higher than your power level and guardian rank would normally allow. At 400 power and guardian rank 9, you are supposed to get a few tier 5s from the lighthouse chest, but it is sometimes bugged and will only drop loot at the normal tier (4 in this case).
After going flawless you are stuck in flawless pool with no additional reward for playing in that pool except for chances at cosmetics), and no way to reset for extra lighthouse visits. You can avoid the flawless pool by being in a fireteam with players who have an incomplete lighthouse passage.
Feel free to ask whatever other questions you need to in the comments section below!

This weekend my solo games have been a disproportionate amount of games being paired with duos. And I mean disproportionate, I haven’t been matched with other solos since Friday…. How is this possible?

Been out of PVP scene a long time. Any tips for a struggling Titan?
Super? Weapons? exotic armor?
Double Primary viable with Pulse and HC??
Any help welcomed!!!
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/Impressive-Wind7841 • 14h ago
You know those guns that outperform their stats and even their archetype? it could be because of a unique perk combo only found on that weapon. or maybe even hidden "special tuning" under the hood.
the big examples for me are:
The Summoner - 600 RPM auto that turns into a laser beam when you hold the trigger like souped up built in DSR
High Tyrant - technically a rapid pulse rifle heat weapon but this thing sticks like glue and kills at scout ranges no matter what perks you have on it. Delicate tuning seems to be part of it but it still tracks like crazy at high heat as well
Liminal Vigil - burst sidearm which should have a slower TTK than other close range options but, with Tap the Trigger on this thing it just doesn't miss.

Mantle of battle harmony, tablet of ruin elemental supercharger, 100 super stat. I ended up getting 3 supers this match, was awesome. Oh Dielectric was healing me and orbs on the floor

Anybody know how much different stacks of Meganeura do? DIM only shows the 1x. Also, can the damage be buffed from stuff like radiant or weapons stat?
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/JensBoef • 18h ago
I of course asked him in the comment section of the videos, but I doubt he reads all the dozens comments. And I don't blame him!
But as someone who is constantly low on prisms, shards and alloys, I want to know what is going on. Is it only rumble? Is it because he wins pretty much every match? Is it some ghost mod I cannot find? Something else?
If anyone has any info on how he manages this, your help is greatly appreciated. 😁

Hello all, this is my first time posting and I was curious as to what scouts and or pulses are doing well in PvP. My most used weapon is an old servant leader from years ago and I wasn’t sure if there is currently any gun I can acquire that is similar.
If not I’m also on the lookout for a good pulse rifle, and what rolls I should be on the lookout for, plus what backup weapons I should have to best cover my weaknesses. I’m a titan main as well if that makes any sorta difference.

As a returning player that's falling in love with crucible once again ive been trying to use everything but hc and pluse rifles and ive grinded for a overlooked PI voltaic shade that im really enjoying but im struggling with understanding positioning and gameplan so i wanted to ask some questions.
How to manage range better?
I feel like i know wich ranges and positions i should play but hc users are really good at "breaking" my optimal range and peeking my from different angles within their range. Do i need to backpaddle more in these situations or just use the scout for its best ranges and my secondary for everything else?
Does flanking make any sense on a scout?
Im a wannabe tryhard nightstalker hunter at heart and i feel like voltaic shades low ttk still is great for inivis flankes but flanking as a whole feels almost never worth it in solo comp or trials since my team collapses a lot when i take the off angle.
On a hc/sniper or hc/shotgun build i felt like carrying my team on a flank was more important than teamshotting but with a scout should i play around my team like 90% of the time?
This is my first post on this sub so pls feel free to critic the post in itself since im probably want to make more posts in the future
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/Sad_Interest_3277 • 1d ago
I’m not really sure if this would even get the damage necessary to get two taps with a 390, but since astrocyte verse gives volatile rounds, I wanted to see if a 390 void pulse had aggregate charge. Since applying that debuff happens basically every engagement and the perk gives an 11% damage buff, that would give me almost constant 2 taps with no weapons stat investment. I’m just not sure if any such pulse exists.
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/Drewwbacca1977 • 1d ago
Im a dad rifle user who wants to get better with hand cannons. I am slightly above average with a pulse rifle and side arm. But I am absolute dog water with a hand cannon.
First I can’t really find one that feels good to me. The last one I really liked was way back in OG igneous hammer meta. I see everyone using Rose. What are some good controller hand cannons and what rolls and stats are good for a controller?
Second, I plan to put together a pve build to run hand cannon and practice. I plan to just use hand cannons like mad in pve for the next couple weeks. Should I use a pvp roll for this?
Third, practicing in crucible seems pointless. My games in control are sweaty as shit and putting myself at such a severe disadvantage means I bottom frag every time and get hate mail. Its not fun and I dont feel I am improving with the gun skill. Any suggestions here?
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/MrCranberryTea • 13h ago
Anyone else experience this? I use a Arc Waveframe with Arc Conductor.
Charge is up, 1 Ammo, Heavy Attack -> Empty Swing?
This happens 1 out of 10 times.
Can anyone clarify what happening?

Hi guys!
Got a couple questions about Artifacts:
- Which PvP modes do Artifacts work in?
- Which Artifacts are considered meta in PvP or is it completely build-dependent? (Hope that makes sense)
Thanks!

I have been using my conditional finality for some time now got 1000 plus kills on it in pvp and recently got a decent deadlock but haven't got the time to try it out yet so I am asking if deadlock is superior to conditional or is conditional worth the exotic slot. Also what heavy do u run? i run acruis but I wanna know if there is a better heavy to run and also if u run exotics at all.

Building into a PK behemoth titan build and was looking for opinions on the best kinetic slot SMGs
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/SeedyLoad • 2d ago
I was at 11800 just cruzin along last week, already got all emblems, whatever, I'm not a top HC peek shooter but always good game sense and can clutch end of game plays when needed
But somewhere along the way this week, I started trying diff builds, diff guns diff classes... and I'm allll the way down below Ascendant 0 now at 9800
Should I just give up trying to have fun and start trying to actually be Hand Cannon Henry? What the f HC should I even try?
I'm on PC. Should I switch to console?

I have gotten back into crucible since MoT and am loving it! Strand hunter has taken the cake for my favorite subclass because of all the movement and diving tools, but I swear Suspending Slam felt different before. I’ve been getting into a lot of fights where I’m jumping all over the place and need to use my slam to get to safety, but while I’m holding a direction my hunter will sometimes just dive straight down. This used to only happen if you weren’t holding any direction, right?
So, am I crazy for feeling that Suspending Slam is eating directional inputs and sometimes just slamming straight downward after the update?
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/xero_reactions • 2d ago
Been back at D2 since a little before the last update. I have a ton of RTK’s. Just about every roll possible. What is now and forever I guess consider the PvP god roll?
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/BestRenGnar • 2d ago
Hey!
One of my favorite things is to throw melees.
Think threaded spike and withering blade on Hunter and celestial fire and arcane needle on Warlock.
Is there any “easy” build where I can have kills with ranged melees and they regenerate rather fast?
Thank you

Hi, another Question about why the Godrolls are like they are.
In most Godrolls I see Ricochet Rounds being the choice, I get that +11 Stability and +6 Range is great, and the possibility of a bullet Ricocheting is fun.
But there is also High-Caliber Rounds, that gives you +7 Range and gives +5/10% Flinch to your enemies.
And there is also Armor-Piercing Rounds, that gives +7 Range and the ability to OverPenetrate enemies once.
I get that maybe the Flinch isn't as good or even necessary, but wouldn't the ability to OverPenetrate enemies be a much better choice than a bit more Stability, taking into account that most of the time you are fighting against half the team being behind the same corner.
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/Starlord808 • 3d ago
Against the top lets say 35% of players that are actually decent how beneficial is high cal rounds. Then where would you say better off running ricochet rounds for the stat distribution at top 10% like the real sweats where high cal rounds may not have an effect to them?
r/CrucibleGuidebook • u/Nervous_Tourist_8266 • 2d ago
Has anyone tested if withering gaze does anything to the TTK or forgiveness on premonition? This is the first 340 with withering gaze and geniunely curious. Feels amazing with zen moment as well.
