Hard Light Intrinsic Traits
Volatile Light
Rounds fire from Hard Light have reduced damage falloff, overpenetrate targets, and ricochets off hard surfaces. Projectile damage increases after bounce.
This makes it easier for you to hit more enemies and you can also increase damage by ricocheting bullets to hit enemies.
Using Hard Light can make it easy to eliminate several enemies, especially in tight areas or when there are surfaces that can cause Hard Light’s projectiles to bounce.
How To Get Hard Light Catalyst?
The Hard Light Catalyst increases the Exotic Auto Rifle’s stability by 18, which makes it much easier to control and aim the weapon while firing.
This can become useful when you tend to continuously fire at enemies, making it also a good bonus since you need to be accurate when aiming for ricocheting rounds.
You may obtain the Hard Light Catalyst as a reward when you complete Heroic or Nightfall Strikes.
To unlock the upgrade, you will have to defeat 1000 enemies with Hard Light.
Verdict
Ricocheting rounds are guaranteed most of the time since the Hard Light’s rounds overpenetrate enemies.
Forcing rounds to ricochet is great for dealing bonus damage but not always necessary as this weapon does a good deal of damage already.
You can choose when you want to change this weapon’s damage type to best suit different enemies and make it easier to break shields.
