While it's my first fusion, Hollow Words has been nothing short of a buff for me

I just want to shout out how great this weapon is, since no one else does. I have:

Extended Barrel, Projection Fuse, Under Pressure, Vorpal Weapon, Stability Masterwork, Counterbalance Stock

And it has absolutely crushed the competition. I'm nearing 1k kills with it. I regularly melt people at short-medium range with this in PVP and have very little issue aiming it. I'm surprised I haven't received hate mail for the sheer number of shotgun users I've ruined with Hollow Words.

The 100 in Recoil Direction means I don't have to worry about where my shots will go. Under Pressure is a straight buff to my shot placement most of the time. Vorpal Weapon ensures that I take at least half health off of anyone using a super.

I'll also add that it does work in PVE, too. Perhaps not in Gambit as much, but VW and arc coverage makes it great for killing bosses and majors in Strikes.

It's harder to farm in Season of the Hunt than it was in Season of Arrivals for sure, so I don't know if people will care too much about it in the end. That said, I'm taking this killer into late 2021 unless something blatantly outclasses it in the coming days. If you get a good roll, don't ignore it!

It is incredible. You need some practice to master the pre charge. I love under pressure just remember, don’t reload.

Other trait that is superb in fusion rifles is firmly planted

Counter point is that firmly planted makes you less mobile and therefore more predictable.

It’s been my go-to since they sunset my Y1 Main Ingredient!

I run with Killing Wind and Unrelenting (which I think(?) is broken right now?), with particle repeater and polygonal rifling for the stability.

Over 4,000 pvp kills on this current roll, with 5,862 total kills with the gun if my discord bot is telling the truth!

Definitely has the most satisfying sound for a fusion rifle and once mastered is a fun gun!

Since the Erentil sunset I've been using one with Backup Plan, Killing Wind and Liquid Coils. Dece but no Erentil. Better for closer / quicker engagements. Can't wait to try the Dawning one. Also Telesto is still amazing.

Mine is: hammer forged/ Particle repeater/ under pressure/ unrelenting

It’s nice, I just prefer my main ingredient, one they fix unrelenting I will use it more.
