Hi Guardians, today we will be looking at the Top 3 Best Legendary Raid Primaries that you can get from the raids. These guns are arguably more desirable than their Elemental Adept versions which takes up an exotic slot , so you will need to sacrifice things like a Black Spindle, Sleeper Stimulant or a Gjallarhorn to use an Elemental Primary.
In a high skill pve activity like a raid you are probably better off with just a legendary primary, so let's have a look at the top 3 best legendary raid primary in the game.

In the number three spot we have the Fang of Ir Yut scout rifle from the Crota’s end raid. This scout rifle sits in the popular 48 impact archetype similar like the hung jury, cryptic dragon and vision of confluence.
This gun has everything you want from a good scout , it has solid base stats and is an overall very balanced gun.
It has very solid perks like spray and play, perfect balance and third eye , which makes it useful for any encounters in PVE but it is also useful for Pvp as well if you prefer scouts in the crucible.

This is easily one of the best scout rifle that you can get from all the raids. However this gun sits at the number 3 spot because despite it being an overall good scout it does not have anything in particular that stands out compared with the other guns in this top 3. Thus it earns the number 3 spot.

In the number 2 spot we have the King’s Fall pulse rifle the Smite of Merain. I have here the Adept elemental primary version with the firefly perk , and the legendary version comes with one of the four perks in the final slot , which is
Glass half full
Life support
Firefly
And Danger close
Out of these four Firefly is definitely the one that you want to have on your legendary smite of merain.
This is an excellent pulse rifle for any pve activity, the gun has an healthy mag size of 30, solid range and the recoil is very easy to manage. Combine this with Firefly and the gun is just so nice to use in any PVE activity where you can easily deal with large crowd of enemies.
On top of this since it is a King’s Fall raid weapon it comes with the cocoon perk which automatically reloads the gun when this is stowed, so you can switch around to your secondary or heavy and when you switch back it will be reloaded so you can immediately continue your fight in the game. Definitely use this against any Taken encounters since it also has the Will of light perk which deals bonus damage to taken enemies.
So as you can see the Smite of Merain with Firefly has solid perk options which works very well together and it is easily the best raid pulse rifle in the game. And thus it earns the number 2 spot.

And in the number one spot we actually have two guns. The Vision of Confluence Scout rifle and the Fatebringer hand cannon which both can be earned from the Vault of Glass raid. The reason we have two guns in the number 1 spot is because they are both excellent guns in their own territory..
The Fatebringer is an amazing hand cannon with such a great collection of perks with Firelfy , Outlaw and explosive rounds which negates all the of weaknesses of using a hand cannon.
Traditionally hand cannons suffer from range dropoffs, slow reload and they have a low mag size. Having only ten rounds means that you will have trouble dealing large crowd of enemies, however this is negated with the firefly perk. Now you can easily deal with multiple enemies with firefly and this also procs outlaw which means that you can have a fast reload. And the range dropoff is kinda negated with explosive rounds which does not suffer from range drop off which allows the fatebringer to still being able to do some damage on those longer ranges.
So the gun is very strong on the short to medium range , however even though it has explosive rounds you will struggle with hitting enemies which are further away, also hand cannons has been hit with an ammo nerf so you will be looking for ammo most of the time. This can become a problem in certain parts of the raid where you need to lock down a specific platform or area which will not allow you to find ammo for your primary.
On the other hand we have the Vision of Confluence which is an excellent scout rifle with superb stability and it has an high mag size 19 and it is full auto! It is without a doubt the king of scouts in the game. Where the Fatebringer lacks in range and ammo, the vision of confluence makes that up, since it is a scout rifle you won’t be having problems with hitting targets that are further away and it generally does not suffer from any ammo issues as with the Fatebringer. You have plenty of ammo to lock down a certain platform or area in the raid without the need to search for white ammo blocks.
And that is why these two guns are in the number 1 spot , because they are both the best gun to use depending on the situation. If you are in a short to medium range encounters like most of the areas in the vault of glass use the fatebringer , if you are out on an open map with targets from a far like the King’s Fall raid, there you will be better off with the Vision of confluence. And you want to switch these two guns around as well based on the ammo needed in each encounter. For example I would prefer to use the vision in the Vosik fight simply because there are so many adds and you don’t want to die because you ran out of ammo.
But on the other hand I would prefer the Fatebringer in the Vault of glass raid, which has more flexibility for you to run around to get ammo since you are not forced to stay at a particular area in comparison with the Vosik encounter.
These two guns are easily the best legendary primaries in the game and if you don’t have one yet go get it, these guns sound great, look great, and are fantastic to use. These are truly trophies of beating the hardest activity in the game.
