    The Modified B-7 Pistol is a Dynamic Heat hand cannon which are rated B-Tier for endgame PvE by @TheAegisRelic tiering spreadsheet https://linktr.ee/TheAegisRelic, providing an intrinsic ×1.15 damage boost against red-bar enemies and ×1.325 against orange and yellow bars and vehicles, plus a ×0.5 heat generation if you manually cancel a vent animation at <12.5% of maximum heat, as per the https://www.destiny2.science/ Destiny Data Compendium. The stats are good by comparison with precision hand cannons, which are the closest comparators - see https://d2foundry.gg/w/1872906663 for how the weapon stats impact in-game performance. The Handling is on the low side, so use the barrel perk to boost that - on M+KB Fluted Barrel is the top pick, or on controller, the +30 Recoil Direction from Arrowhead Brake is useful. For the battery perk, Overclocked Heatsink provides free ×1.02 damage for a slightly slower vent speed - not a problem if you manually reload anyway - or Light Heatsink or Tactical Heatsink improve gunfeel. This is a roll to tuck away for a future correction of a probably unintended damage nerf - in the first trait perk column, Demolitionist to generate chunk grenade ability energy on kills, and an instant heat vent on grenade use, or Firefly for a 4m AoE solar explosion plus +50 Reload Speed for 6s after a crit kill. Alternatively, Rapid Hit or Keep Away both passively improve gunfeel. Pair one of those with Thermal Atomization in the second column to boost damage by between ×1.08 and ×1.14 as heat increases from 50% to 100%, and then proc a 7.5m AoE Stasis explosion on a kill - except the AoE damage is terrible, at only 1/4 of an SMG-generated explosion which feels like it must be a decimal point in the wrong place. For the Origin Trait Air-Cooled Core improves handling and ADS speed when heat is <10%, and boosts Vent Speed for 6s after sprinting. If you're very lucky you'll drop a weapon with the much better option of Accelerated Assault which passively reduces heat by 10% and boosts damage by ×1.05 for getting 3 hits within 1.6s. If you're interested, it's modelled on the MW-20 Bryar pistol used by Cassian Andor (and the K-16 Bryar that inspired that, used by Kyle Katarn in Dark Forces). Recommended MW: Handling, with your preferred choice of mod to boost heat generation, weapon stats, ammo regeneration, or elemental pickups for builds - and don't forget to check any available seasonal fragile mods.

For Stasis synergy, there's the trait perk pairing of Rimestealer to generate a stack (2 stacks when enhanced) of Frost Armor on shattering a Stasis crystal or killing a frozen enemy together with either Headstone to generate a Stasis crystal on a crit kill, which can be shattered for AoE damage and to proc stasis ability effects, or Crystalline Corpsebloom which procs on a kill to provide a 4s buff - kills with the buff active generate a stasis seeker which travels 3m before spawning a medium Stasis crystal (large when enhanced) to shatter for AoE damage.

    Lego describes The Modified B-7 Pistol as having "PvE perks that would have blown minds a few months ago", demonstrated in his video (https://youtu.be/Oc6bHfJCR3w). It's a Dynamic Heat frame hand cannon, with a precision firing rate and reduced horizonal recoil, which are rated A-Tier for endgame PvE by @TheAegisRelic tiering spreadsheet https://linktr.ee/TheAegisRelic having insane damage with Lucky Pants and an okay neutral game. The heat frame is like an extra perk set, first providing a pseudo-Reconstruction, automatically "refilling" as the weapon loses heat when not being used. Additionally, there's an intrinsic ×1.15 damage boost against red-bar enemies and ×1.325 against orange and yellow bars and vehicles, plus a ×0.5 heat generation for 6s if you manually reload when the heat bar is at <12.5% of maximum heat to proc Dynamic Heat Limiter, as per the https://www.destiny2.science/ Destiny Data Compendium. The stats aren't great compared to other precision hand cannons, but you can get enhanced barrel, mag, weapon mods and origin traits to fill all of the stat gaps at Tiers 4 and 5. You can see the in-game effect of stat changes at https://d2foundry.gg/w/1872906663 for yourself. Look for a barrel perk that boosts Range, preferably without any penalties. As the heatsink perk, Overclocked Heatsink boosts damage by ×1.02 at the cost of -10 Cooling Efficiency, which slows the passive cooling a little. For add clearing, and to synergise with Stasis builds, in the first trait perk column Firefly procs a 4m AoE Solar explosion on a crit kill plus +50 Reload Speed for 6s, or Demolitionist generates chunk grenade ability energy on kills and an instant magazine refill on grenade use. In the second column, Crystalline Corpsebloom procs on a kill to provide a 4s buff - kills with the buff active generate a Stasis seeker which travels 3m before spawning a medium Stasis crystal (large when enhanced). Alternatively, Headstone generates a Stasis crystal on a crit kill. Crystals from both can be shattered by Firefly explosions, and are weapon-generated entities so can proc weapon traits like Demolitionist when shattered for AoE damage, as well as proccing subclass fragments. The Fleet Footed origin trait is useful for PvP, stacking up to ×1 on hits and ×2 on kills to boost movement speed and Airborne Effectiveness for a refreshable 5s (6s enhanced). If you're lucky, you'll drop one with the rare Accelerated Assault origin trait which provides 10% cooling and ×1.05 damage when you hit 3 times with 0.8-1.2s between each hit. Recommended MW: Vent Speed or Cooling Efficiency, with a Heat Generated or Vent Speed mod, or your choice depending on your play style.

    The Modified B-7 Pistol is, at time of writing, a solid A-Tier or high-end B-Tier primary, which Lego describes as having been seen 3-tapping in the hands of every streamer since the launch of Renegades, demonstrated in his video (https://youtu.be/Oc6bHfJCR3w). Heat frames are like having an extra perk set, first providing a pseudo-Reconstruction, automatically "refilling" as the weapon loses heat when not being used. Additionally, Dynamic Heat weapons have an intrinsic ×1.025 damage boost against Guardians in Crucible, plus a ×0.5 heat generation for 6s if you manually reload when the heat bar is at <12.5% of maximum heat to proc Dynamic Heat Limiter, as per the https://www.destiny2.science/ Destiny Data Compendium. In addition, this also has the precision frame intrinsic of a ×0.8 horizontal recoil, so you can pretty much ignore the Recoil Direction stat. The @hugowo_ spreadsheet at https://www.destiny2.science/, shows a base TTK of 1.000s (2c2b). The stats aren't great compared to other precision hand cannons, but you can get enhanced barrel, mag, weapon mods and origin traits to fill all of the stat gaps at Tiers 4 and 5. You can see the in-game effect of stat changes at https://d2foundry.gg/w/1872906663 for yourself. Look for a barrel perk that boosts Range, preferably without any penalties. As the heatsink perk, Overclocked Heatsink boosts damage by ×1.02 at the cost of -10 Cooling Efficiency - but this is enough for a 3-tap in 0.667s (3c 0b) with 178 weapons stat, without needing any damage-boosting trait perks. To make the most of this 3-tap roll, start in the first trait perk column with Delicate Tuning, which works like a Heat weapon's mirror to Closing Time, boosting Range by +20 (+22 when enhanced), Handling and Accuracy when a weapon's cold, with the benefits reducing to half at 50% heat. As a pairing in the second column there's Opening Shot, for +25 Range, +20 Aim Assist (+30 and +25 when enhanced), ×0.95 accuracy cone size and ×0.90 accuracy cone growth on your first shot, with a 3s cooldown. Alternatively, Eye of the Storm grants a linearly scaling buff from 40 shield HP to 0 HP (critical health), maxxing out at +30 Handing, ×0.6 accuracy cone size and ×0.83 accuracy cone growth (+33, ×0.56 and ×0.81 enhanced) until your shield regenerates to 80HP - this should start kicking in as you lose Delicate Tuning's boosts. Finally, there's Headstone to generate a Stasis crystal on a crit kill which stops revives, and can be shattered for AoE damage and to proc stasis ability effects. The Fleet Footed origin trait is useful for PvP, stacking up to ×1 on hits and ×2 on kills to boost movement speed and Airborne Effectiveness for a refreshable 5s (6s enhanced). Accelerated Assault sounds good, providing 10% cooling and ×1.05 damage when you hit 3 times with 0.8-1.2s between each hit, but it takes at least 1.6s to proc, so you're not likely to see any benefit within a normal TTK window. Recommended MW: Range, with a Range enhanced mod, or your choice depending on your play style.

    The Modified B-7 Pistol is a bit of a slept-on B-Tier 180RPM hand cannon. It's a Heat weapon - which means you get an ersatz Reconstruction for free from the passive cooling. The Dynamic Heat frame means that when you cancel a manual vent at <12.5%, you get ×0.5 heat generation for 6s or until stowed. The @hugowo_ spreadsheet at https://www.destiny2.science/, shows the TTK, is 1.000s (2c2b), with a higher weapons stat also having no further effect, at base. Compared against its 180 Precision peers, but the stats are decent, especially with enhanced perks. You can see the in-game effect of stat changes at https://d2foundry.gg/w/1872906663 for yourself, once the formulas have been worked out. For the barrel perk, look to improve Handling, and if you want even more then the Shrewd Survivor armour two-piece Reflex Action perk boosts it further. For the Battery Perk, the only real choice is Overclocked Heatsink - with this perk alone providing a ×1.02 damage boost - enough on it's own to work with a 178 weapons stat for a 0.667s (3c0b) TTK. For a duelling roll, in the first column to boost gunfeel, Delicate Tuning works like a Heat weapon's mirror to Closing Time, boosting Range, Handling and Accuracy when a weapon's cold, with the benefits reducing to half strength at 50% heat. Almost perfectly pairing with this, Eye of the Storm in the second column should take over to boost Accuracy and Handling as you take damage in a gunfight by when the heat will be >50%. Otherwise, Opening Shot pairs with Delicate Tuning at the start of an engagement to make the first shot very easy to land, or Headstone's Stasis crystal on a crit kill is great to prevent revives. The Air-Cooled Core origin trait is only really relevant with manual vents (reloads) - you'll have boosted Reload Speed after sprinting which procs the better Handling and ADS movement speed after reloading, but unfortunately to proc Accelerated Assault you need to hit 3 times with 1.2-4s between each hit for the cooling and extra damage which isn't ideal if you're trying to hit an optimal TTK. Recommended MW: Range, Handling or Cooling Efficiency, with a Heat Generated mod/enhanced mod, or your choice depending on your play style.

In the second trait perk column after the first kill, Adagio turns this into a 3-tap 0.800s TTK (2c1b - at 200 weapon stat this becomes 1c2b) after a kill without needing a weapons stat boost. But, if you can add any damage boost of ×1.2 this turns into a 2-tap TTK of 0.400s (2c 0b) while Adagio's active - that means an Empowering Rift, Radiant or Mask of Bakris at ×2 stacks of Light Shift. Watch the video to see the Bakris play loop that keeps the 2-tap buff going!

You can see the in-game effect of stat changes at https://d2foundry.gg/w/1872906663 for yourself, once the formulas have been worked out. For the barrel perk, look to improve Handling, and if you want even more then the Shrewd Survivor armour two-piece Reflex Action perk boosts it further. For the Battery Perk, the only real choice is Overclocked Heatsink - with this perk alone providing a ×1.02 damage boost - enough on it's own to work with a 178 weapons stat for a 0.667s (3c0b) TTK. For a kill-chaining 3-tap, in the first column to boost gunfeel, Delicate Tuning works like a Heat weapon's mirror to Closing Time, boosting Range, Handling and Accuracy when a weapon's cold, with the benefits reducing to half strength at 50% heat. In the second column, Adagio gives you an easy 0.800s (2c1b) TTK with no need to invest in the weapons stat (although if you do have 200 weapons stat, you'll only need 1c2b), but if you're a Bakris Hunter you can go on to potentially achieve a 0.400s (2c0b) TTK at three stacks of Light Shift. The Air-Cooled Core origin trait is only really relevant with manual vents (reloads) - you'll have boosted Reload Speed after sprinting which procs the better Handling and ADS movement speed after reloading, but unfortunately to proc Accelerated Assault you need to hit 3 times with 1.2-4s between each hit for the cooling and extra damage which isn't ideal if you're trying to hit an optimal TTK. Recommended MW: Range, Handling or Cooling Efficiency, with a Heat Generated mod/enhanced mod, or your choice depending on your play style.

    "This is ostensibly a better version of the best PvE hand cannon archetype.

    The only thing it is missing is a damage perk, but it has some decent utility and splash. With the inherent good damage profile of hand cannons, the bonus of being a heat weapon, and being the best archetype of hand cannons - this should be a very solid candidate for all PvE content." Recommended MW: Reload, Cooling Efficiency, Range, Handling.
