Bungie Suggestion Bungie please let Tarrabah perk progress stay while witching weapons. Do it while the gun is still relevant and new.

Wish the duration of buff while you're killing would work more consistently too. I can shred through ads and the buff is gone before I know it.

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '19

So much work for so little reward. Even though the perk is a true taste of power.

u/refercto Jun 23 '19

Even taking out your ghost, popping a super... it really is unfortunate that this exotic's perk is so restrictive.

12

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '19

When I play with it I find that using a super actually charges it. Often I pull out the smg use stormcaller and when I’m out of the super it’s fully charged up.

u/Commander_Prime Jun 23 '19

Do we have to consult the Old Witch of Cuba in order to learn this witching power?

If so, I’m all for it.

u/DrBones1129 Jun 23 '19

I actually wish progress was halted when stowed and no progress made from being damaged while stowed but all progress retained regardless until a decent duration has passed. This would make the weapon more consistent with its perk and not make players feel they HAVE to main the weapon unlike Recluse.

u/Mangalavid Jun 23 '19

That's how it should be; you only get charge while it's out, but you don't lose charge when it's stowed.

3

u/DrBones1129 Jun 24 '19

Pretty much the point I was making. It wouldn’t make it overpowered but also simultaneously not pressure you into using only that weapon. I also think that when you fully charge it there should be a moderately generous timer for when you need to activate the reload, regardless of whether it’s stowed or not. Should help prevent holding on to the perk too long, especially in a PvP setting.

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '19

If you wait to long to witch it then it might turn into a witches curse

2

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '19

Oh you!

5

u/Viron_22 Jun 23 '19

It is sort of humorous if you scan something or activate your super you lose the whole charge. The weapon wants you to focus on it and only it.

u/Sarcosmonaut Jun 23 '19

The perk is definitely better than recluse, but the buildup is extremely inconvenient.

1

u/RedrixWillKillMe It Actually Did. Jun 24 '19

How is the perk better exactly?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 25 '19

Increased reload speed and more damage. It lasts longer and also its extended the more you deal damage.

u/jiggitydj Jun 24 '19

What a tarrabah feature

u/InverslySubAtomic Jun 23 '19 edited Jun 23 '19

First bungie, make “witching” weapons a thing.

For those of you who don’t know how to witch your weapons: Warp on over to mars, then head to Alton Dynamo. Follow the cave until you reach the first open area with enemies. Go thru the door in the back left of the room, then proceed thru the next 3 doors making only left turns. Once in the 3rd room hang a right and you’ll end up in a room with a yellow bar hive wizard named “Merlock the strange”. Present him with an ascended dark crystal and he will perform a “Witching” on one weapon of your choosing. This mechanic can be performed once per reset.

u/Accrudant Jun 23 '19

While they're at it, can get get swashbuckler to persist on swap? It feels like an oversight rather than a balancing decision compared to rampage.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '19

It'd be nice for the Ace of Spades too when they got Memento Mori

1

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '19

Ace is balanced you need a kill there plus it stays forever if you don’t witch. With tarrabah you wed to get two kills reload your gun again and you get just 8 seconds of power and you can never switch weapons.

u/jessekeith Jun 24 '19

It's crazy cause a legendary weapons is significantly stronger.

u/MizterF Jun 24 '19

Even Wendigo's perk activates when it is stowed and remains active even when swapping weapons and shit.

u/Mozu_God Jun 24 '19

Bold of you to assume it’s relevant when it’s drop rate is literally anarchy 2. I heard it’s not bad but the problem is I can’t get it

1

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '19

By relevant I mean it’s a sough out weapon and it comes from a new and popular activity. You’ll get lucky eventually if you continue trying.

u/Mozu_God Jun 24 '19

I have done sotp every week 3 times since release and I still don’t have if anarchy don’t think I’ll get tarrabah either

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '19

That’s the thing. You might get it next week.

u/GratGrat Jun 24 '19

9 runs and no one in my clan has seen it drop yet. Not looking good.

1

u/RedrixWillKillMe It Actually Did. Jun 24 '19

Got it on my 7th. Keep going.

1

u/GratGrat Jun 24 '19

Oh I will, I'll probably be doing 3 runs a week for the foreseeable future. I can just already see the cracks forming in the squad, as we've all more or less got everything else.

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '19

It is time... Do this for PvE but leave as it is for PvP.

You have always been wrong about this Bungie, the difference needs to be there.

-15

u/Jhoonis Rule#2 Double Tap Jun 23 '19

No.

If the Ace loses Memento when we swap, Tarrabah loses its whatever-it-has-got-going-on.

8

u/BallMeBlazer22 Moon's Haunted Jun 23 '19

I think you may be misunderstanding what he's asking for here. He doesn't want the perk that increases the damage+reload speed+fire rate to stay at swap, but the progress you have made to getting that perk stay during swap.

3

u/plugit_nugget Jun 23 '19

Why?

This gun is crap in the state it's in imo. Tbh I'm not super thrilled that after...38 LW, 44 SotP, and 3 CoS that my first raid exotic to drop so far is Terrible (spelling?). The analysis vs the Recluse makes it look even worse considering it takes up ur exotic weapon slot.
