My first GOD Wolfhound! (blue)

[Alexri]

I was happy too when I got a syphon/crit/assassin Wolfhound, but they're not as great as you'd think. That extra 6% crit multiplier is 4*0,06*371 = 90 damage. Stalker's 15% extra range is going to outperform that in a lot of situations, especially during scrapper arkfalls.

Also, as pointed out here, radiation is king on wolfhounds if you're using it for arkfalls. IMHO the best wolfhound you could get (on a legendary level) would be radiation/stalker/10% crit/1.15 crit/10% ego power on full reload/+8 mag.

Definitely agree on that build for a Wolf - though I'd argue for a 10% EGO on crit kill vs reload - with the stalker you'd get +25% EGO on crit kills.

So yesterday I was punching my lockbox as I usually do for never giving me a legendary as I ended up getting blues, though this certain weapon caught my eye and completely amazed me at the perfect nano, synergy, bonus and exp bonus to go with the gun.

I'd prefer assassin over stalker for the wolfhounds as I'd only be using it on hellbug destruction arkfalls in close range, so the range wouldn't do be good, so a little more buff in the crit damage is always great . My perfect legendary wolfhound I could imagine would probably be radiation/assassin/x1.10 crit/x1.15 crit/x1.10 fire rate or 10% ego recharge on crit kill/+8 mag

That looks great. I too have some really good blues and purples. I've even had pretty good whites and greens-imagine that. They were good early on because of bonuses. Later I did get better versions of the bonuses they had on blues and purples, but for just starting in the game, they were very good.

See, I think people are totally misunderstanding the idea of a "rare" weapon and all they can see is orange. Some people will even buy crappy orange weapons just to have an orange. But all you are getting with some of them is a potentially better set of bonus rolls. And sometimes you don't get good bonuses.

For max dmg on an ark fall you actually want exp bonus to be the 1.15 crit from hip. I think we were talking ark falls, if not sorry about that.

syphon sucks, the capacity for damage is way better with acid. slap overcharge on and blammo, better than the precious saw

No sir, it does not. You can get syphon to proc quite frequently with blue wolfhounds.
Radiation or "acid" will only proc once to bring down shields.
I have several variations of hounds. Great gun btw.

ive always thought it was radiation.

I've always thought of it as the "We all do more damage when this procs" nano. Probably to big to fit easily into a screen though.

Yes, people seem to be obsessed by orange weapons...and at least in PVE any weapon be it white or orange , will do the job.
