Analysis Raises Eyebrows
Content creators such as X user illPhysics and MattGoesBuck have shed light on the rapid time-to-kill (TTK) associated with the Fang of Ir Yut, particularly when paired with Precision Instrument. Through gameplay analysis, it was revealed that opponents with Resilience Tier 9 or lower could face a TTK as low as 0.7 seconds, prompting concerns among players.
Additionally, comparisons have been drawn with other scout rifles, such as the Hung Jury with Box Breathing, leading to further scrutiny within the Destiny 2 community.
Anticipation Builds Ahead of Update
The impending 7.3.6 update, scheduled for release on April 9, includes a 2% base damage buff for all rapid-fire scout rifles, including the Fang of Ir Yut. While the full impact of this adjustment remains uncertain until implementation, players are bracing themselves for potential shifts in the game's PvP meta.
