What is the best exotic primary in the current meta?

On PC. Pretty average player with not a lot of time for crucible these days, want to pull something from collections that'll give me the best chance of not dragging down my team.

Going to go against the grain and recommend Vigilance Wing here. It has an extremely forgiving optimal TTK. It only requires you to hit five heads out of ten in the two bursts.

VW might rise to the meta again. My friend cant put it down. Everyone is still playing with blighting lion, so you dont see it often.

I'm upvoting you because this is one of the best weapons for a person to increase their skill with.

Its vicious man and eventually you'll want to leave it behind but while you have it it will give you such a good friend.

I have the cat filled and it's just... What a melter.

I see less and less handcanons these days. 600rpm autofrifles and High pulses have better range, tkk and are more forgiving.

Despite the peek shooting and jump shooting abilites there is nothing that speaks to play 150 Handcanons.

We talking comp or QP? All my comp games past 3000 glory have been 80-90% handcannons.

Yep those god snipers all use spare, and half the pros who win money use it too.

Are you on console or pc? On pc its still mostly handcannons from my experience

Ace of Spades is severely slept on I think.

Bruh correct no one is expecting a 140 hand cannon cause jeez they need a buff but it just has so many perks it really makes up for it

I think Ace is a prime example of why 140s need a buff. With Memento Mori it’s too easy to hang with 150s and 600 autos due to being able to 2crit 1body

Ace is my favorite handcannon by far too many things going for it

Suros regime is definitely better in general but monte carlo is amazing for classes with good melees like bottom tree nightstalker smoke bombs

Suros for sure.

Been playing with Vigi Wing in Dawn and Worthy and it was already good back then. Now it's just insane. Highly competitive TTK alongside with high forgiveness -you only need 50% crits to reach optimal TTK-.

Obviously, Suros is another contender. Low TTK and ease of use combined.
