Looks like I do have a good roll on mine. I remember reforging it a few times but couldn't remember why. I'm not really a fusion rifle connoisseur.

The big shock with Perun's that I remember from my old one that I discarded was how little help accelerated coils were. Something to keep in mind with those fast charge ones: you don't necessarily need accelerated coils if you can minimize projectile spread instead. It's one of the reasons I think Murmur is especially good: outside of Plan C, I haven't used a fusion rifle with a tighter projectile spread. Getting a Perun's with a tight projectile spread is basically having a Plan C as a legendary.

Plug One has most of the perks mentioned here. The vendor issued one has max stability and ludicrous range with virtually no spread. If you're not sure what to spend marks on, spend them on this.

The actual Iron Banner event is super easy right now because of Christmas Noobs who are playing at level 21.

The mindless glimmer farming to actually buy everything is the hard part and, frankly, has never been worth it. Why the hell does a PvP event REQUIRE SO MUCH PVE FARMING???

I'd say it's because they want to give you incentive to play the non-PvP part of the game... Grind and all that.

I keep it on my secondary character just so it has a decent handcannon (fatebringer, TLW, thorn are all on my primary).

Specifically regarding Perun's fire:

Perun's Fire:
Red Dot ORS1/Hip Fire/Hammerforged/Any

The massive range bonuses of Hammerforged/ORS1 tighten the hip fire spread even further beyond the effects of Hip Fire and maximize the speed of the projectiles. Hip fire build to maximize OHKOs. I feel it's better to go for Range as the Vendor Light/BEWARE already has a flawless Stability build and Range has a nice effect on both the spread of the projectiles when hip firing and speeds them up to make it harder to strafe out of part of the blast.

Odds are 1 in 75 rolls.

Odds of getting any combination of Red Dot OAS/Red Dot ORS1, Hip Fire/Rangefinder and Hammer Forged/Perfect Balance are ~15%. Those are the best overall sights/perks, imo. I don't recommend Accelerated Coils on this gun as it barely alters the charge time. You're so close to the cap on charge speed that you don't get the full benefit; Light/BEWARE and other Fusion Rifles also hit max charge speed with Accelerated Coils but are higher in every other stat since their base charge speed is lower, making them better choices.

It looks like those two have the same impact, right? Can either/both of them compete with Hawkmoon/Thorn/TLW in crucible - two-shotting teh noobs?

I got the primed big sky as an iron banner drop yesterday, and accidentally went into a game after being in the tower (I had it equipped for bounty experience, forgot to switch back to TLW when I fired up Iron Banner) - it does a lot of damage, but its firing rate is so much slower that I thought my gun was broken or that there was lag or something. ;)

Don't have a Timur's Lash, but I'm guessing that Primed Big Sky will make a nice alternative to TLW when I'm prepared for the slower rate (and want a different exotic in MM). ;)

Yeah... compared to TLW, everything seems to have a slow rate of fire. :-)

Apparently the Timur's Lash (hand cannon with the highest impact in the game)

For Crucible purposes, apparently others might challenge this notion:

Personally, I don't find that (or anything else) to be a compelling enough reason for me to bust my butt grinding Iron Banner rep. I enjoy crucible, so if fellow DBOers are looking to run together over the next several days, I'm more than happy to join in...

Had fun running those few games with you tonight. Won them all, I think.

Yeah, I had a lot of fun too. Would have been happy to keep running Iron Banner all night if it weren't for the chance to run 5 Nightfalls/Weeklies in less than two hours.

Still, it's a chance to create your own field scout / firefly / zen moment monster scout rifle, or crowd control / explosive rounds / clown cartridge hand cannon. I don't have the perk tables in front of me but you get the jist.

Apparently the Timur's Lash (hand cannon with the highest impact in the game) is on the purchasable menu (instead of being a random drop) - so there is that, I guess.

1. Wait till the weekend.
2. Buy the tempered buff
3. Wear all your shaders and shit from last time

It shouldn't take nearly as long.
