There is no doubt that right now, if you ask a PvP player about the weapon he wants the most, there is a huge chance that he/she will end up saying, Riiswalker. And it makes sense, as it is the best Lightweight shotgun for the kinetic slot in the game at the moment. Riiswalker is definitely the top attraction of this season’s Iron Banner. As more and more players are realizing how good the weapon is, more players are flocking to Iron Banner.
Speaking of the weapon, Riiswalker is a Legendary Lightweight Frame 80 RPM shotgun with a Magazine Size of 6. Being a Lightweight, the weapon has insane handling and can be drawn really fast. But that’s not what makes the Riiswalker so awesome. It is the fact that this Shotgun can roll with a perk that is exclusive to Iron Banner weapons, which is Iron Reach. Iron Reach straight up adds +20 Range to this weapon, which allows players to take down opponents easily without coming too close to them. Before you start farming the Riiswalker, it is mandatory to know about the God Rolls for the weapon. Here they are.
Riiswalker God Roll PvP
Now, people who would be farming the Riiswalker, are primarily going to farm for a PvP God Roll. The idea of a God Roll can be different for different people. If you ask me, then a Riiswalker PvP God Roll should be:
- Barrel: Smallbore/Barrel Shroud (I would personally prefer Smallbore as this weapon already has great Handling)
- Magazine: Accurized Rounds (This is a no-brainer. You get +10 Range on your Riiswalker)
- Trait #1: Slideshot (Unfortunately, in the Season 23 or 2023 version, we do not have Quickdraw)
- Trait #2: Iron Reach/Opening Shot (Again, a no-brainer. Probably one of the best range perks you can have on a shotgun. Adds +20 Range. It also reduces Stability by 30. But that doesn’t matter on shotguns)
- Origin Trait: Skulking Wolf (Fixed perk)
- Masterwork: Range (Range is what we are aiming for here.)
- Mod: Targeting Adjuster (For that extra Aim Assist)
Riiswalker God Roll PvE
Again, the idea of a God Roll can be different for different people. If you ask me, then a Riiswalker PvE God Roll should be:
- Barrel: Barrel Shroud (Since we don’t need a lot of range in PvE, Barrel Shroud provides a nice +10 increase to Stability and Handling.)
- Magazine: Tactical Mag (You get an extra shot in the magazine, along with increased Reload Speed and Stability.)
- Trait #1: Shotswap (Comes really handy during DPS phases)
- Trait #2: Adagio (One good damage perk in this slot)
- Origin Trait: Skulking Wolf (Fixed perk)
- Masterwork: Reload Speed (We are aiming for faster reloads here)
- Mod: Major Spec (For that 7.7% damage increase on Elites and Mini-bosses)
