    The updated Oversoul Edict is a Lightweight pulse rifle which as a subfamily are currently rated C-Tier for endgame PvE by @TheAegisRelic Endgame Analysis spreadsheet in https://www.destiny2.science/ as "essentially just a worse high-impact auto". The frame intrinsic offers built-in anti-Overload, and +20 to the hidden Mobility stat and ×1.0625 base movement speed as per the https://www.destiny2.science/ Destiny Data Compendium. The stats are decent by comparison with its peers - you can see the stats at https://destiny.report/w/1098171824/oversoul-edictand hopefully https://d2foundry.gg/w/1098171824 will show how weapon stats impact in-game performance when the site is back up and running. The recoil is left and quite loose, so to tighten that up, look for a barrel perk that helps with Recoil Direction or, if you can handle it just go for extra handling, and then with the magazine perk any of the combat effect mags works or go for something that helps improve magazine size or reload. For groups of adds, synergising with arc builds, in the first trait perk column for double damage perks, Rolling Storm generates ×1 stack of Arc Bolt Charge (×2 when Amplified) on a kill, to trigger a lightning bolt at ×10 stacks for both target and AoE damage. Alternatively, Supercharged Magazine refills 5% of the magazine every 1.5s while you're Amplified or, after you sprint when Amplified to gain Speed Booster this accelerates to 5% every 0.25s while the buff is active, overflowing the magazine to up to ×2 capacity, or Eddy Current boosts Handling with a ×0.95 animation scalar and +20 Reload Speed with a ×0.95 animation scalar for 3s after sprinting for 1.5s, which is all applied instantly with +60 to Reload Speed when Amplified. There's also Demolitionist to generate chunk grenade ability energy on kills and an instant magazine refill on grenade use. In the second column, Gear Shift provides up to ×5 stacks for 15s on reloads following a weapon kill or becoming Amplified, providing up to max ×1.35 damage. The Cursed Thrall origin trait synergises well with melee builds - killing an enemy with a melee will proc a 4.5m radius Cursed Thrall AoE explosion for 7.5s (8.5s enhanced) on the next weapon kill. If you're interested, an edict is an official order or decree issued by an authority. So the name implies that the weapon acts as a manifested extension of the Hive Oversoul's power, enforcing the absolute, violent decree of the Hive gods. Recommended MW: Handling, with your preferred choice of mod to boost weapon stats, ammo generation, or elemental pickups for builds.
