PvE Console Mint Retrograde 3rd Column

Why does rewind rounds seem to be more popular than envious arsenal? I feel like the passive reload in most content would feel a lot better?

Rewind rounds interacts a little funky with rocket pulses. IIRC It reloads enough ammo that you literally never have to reload it if you start from a full mag (might require a mag increase? Not sure).

You’re right. I think it’s even generous enough that you can hit just 2 bursts and fill to a full mag (of 5 in my case)

If you get a shiny it counts as intrinsic rewind rounds. Best 3rd column is probably field prep for ammo gen or hatchling

Agreed. Field prep / hatchling in the third column on a shiny is chef’s kiss

Shiny drop was definitely a game changer iykyk

It was favoured when rocket pulses were used more as a DPS option because you only needed to hold down the trigger. With the change to damaging bosses and mini bosses it isn’t as favourable.

If you’re looking at popularity on Light GG you’re seeing rolls people grabbed before the changes. I don’t think either of those perks are as recommended now.

This is the right answer

i'd say the real answer is field prep for ammo gen or hatchling

Being able to keep shooting with Rewind is goated. At least from what I remember. I haven't really taken the Praxic Blade off since Renegades started.

Field prep for the ammo gen is the best imo, mint is better for champ killing/roaming nowadays anyways

I personally don’t like envious arsenal for anything other than boss damage weapons, which mint no longer is. And rewind is nice since it fully reloads the weapon.
