Review

Perhaps one of the most famous weapons in Destiny's history, the Fatebringer has long been considered the premiere hand cannon for PvE players, even if it's subpar for PvP due to the lack of range perks. High mag size and one of the best perk combinations in the game help this weapon excel at minion clean-up, which is where Fatebringer has earned its reputation. With SureShot IS as the best sight option, and Firefly and Outlaw working in tandem to provide explosions and fast reloads, most players will find red-bar enemies melting away in no time. In the middle column we do have a choice, however. Single Point Sling is very nice for the boost to the low equip speed, but some people like Explosive Rounds to double up on the fiery capabilities and for the bonus damage. There is a problem with choosing Explosive Rounds, though. If an enemy is killed by the blast from ER, then neither Firefly nor Outlaw will activate, which makes it a little annoying to run both at once. As such, if you don't mind the interference and just want to bonus effects of ER go ahead and use it, but some players who want their headshot explosions, faster equip speed, and reload speed may want to choose SPS.
