The Hero's Burden

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

The Hero’s Burden is a Void, 900 RPM Submachine Gun, re-released in S17’s Iron Banner with a slate of new perks. It has applications in PvP and PvE, and there’s several rolls worth checking out.

There are some old standbys like Feeding Frenzy and Kill Clip of course, but you absolutely want to keep an eye out for rolls featuring the new perks Fragile Focus and possibly even Repulsor Brace, a new perk that harmonizes with Void builds.

😈 Nemesis (pvp)#

Iron Reach minimizes Stability but gives a huge bump to Range, and on console/controller, you’re really going to feel that. With a base Recoil of 93, a quick Counterbalance Mod (or barrel perk) will grant you vertical recoil which helps offset such low Stability. We’re going to focus on Stability in the other slots as well to compensate.

✈️ It’s a Plane! (pve)#

New this season, Repulsor Brace complements Void builds, granting you an overshield when you kill a Void-debuffed enemy. With Hero’s Burden being Void, it can get Volatile Rounds, which places a debuff itself. Well-Rounded is interesting in this context because presuambly you’re using your melee and grenade to grant those Void debuffs.
