Extraordinary Rendition

For complete perks, see d2gunsmith.com, light.gg or destinytracker.com.

Extraordinary Rendition is a 750 RPM Kinetic Submachine Gun; part of the S13 weapon set. Both perks and stats are virtually identical to the Cold Front, available only during the 2020 Dawning, so we’ll be able to rely on the work we did there for these rolls 🎉🎉🎉 Ehroar covers the Extraordinary Rendition in depth.

The cornerstone of both PvE and PvP are Surplus. If you end up with a “PvE roll” that also happens to have super high Stability, then you’ve got the Holy Grail. Congrats! For an explanation of these rolls, please read further down towards the specific PvE and PvP sections.

PvP Thoughts#

EA needs a lot of help in the Stability department, which is the entire focus of these two rolls. At best, you’ll be able to get Stability up from 17 to 52 plus the benefits coming from Surplus and Tap the Trigger. This puts you way above the base Stability on the vaunted Antiope-D and other Precision Frame SMGs. The Recoil is 97 so YMMV on whether or not a Counterbalance mod is required (I suggest an Icarus Mod otherwise).

You’ll also notice there are no damage perks in these rolls. Neither Rampage x1 nor Multikill Clip x1 changes the TTK or TTK requirements materially.

PvE Thoughts#

With Surplus, One for All and Frenzy in the EA perk pool, we’re looking at a strong contender for one of the best kinetic weapons of all time (second only to the Ikelos SMG). Surplus improves Stability and Reload and One for All and Frenzy provide a tremendous damage boost and leaves your mod slot free for Minor, Major or Boss Spec.

🕺 The Show Must Go On (pve)#

🖼 A Beautiful Rendition (pve)#

This is going to be immensely helpful in high tier content where you aren’t able to proc damage perks off of kills. While Surplus will be boosting Stability, the Stability is so low and difficult to manage on console that we’ll continue to crave it as a backstop for when we’re at lower tiers of Surplus benefits.

  • Perks 1: Surplus
  • Perks 2: One for All, Frenzy
