  Peculiar Charm is the first of a new Aggressive Burst SMG subfamily that shoots four rounds before a short pause - early days, but could be very competitive in PvP, particularly if you're used to Antiope or Shayura's Wrath. The only downside is that the pause makes it difficult to use against snipers, who might well be able to shoot through the flinch. There's no data yet at the @hugowo_ spreadsheet at https://www.destiny2.science/, but Cammy's testing looks like it's a similar TTK to precision SMGs ~0.8s (8c 1b). The stats aren't really comparable with any existing weapons, but notable are the magazine size of 56 at base, and the range - a max range roll reaches out to ~26m, before damage falloff compared to Shayura's ~23.5m. You can see the in-game effect of stat changes at https://d2foundry.gg/w/3620277039 for yourself. For the barrel perk, push out the range, even at the cost of a little handling - if you're using Peacekeepers, Dragon's Shadow or St0mp-EE5, you'll still be covered, and Fitted Stock can straighten out Recoil Direction to a perfect 100 and recover any lost stability. In the magazine, Extended Barrel or Steady Rounds both boost Aerial Effectiveness. For aerial duelling, in the first trait perk column Lone Wolf passively boosts Aim Assist by +5, +15 Airborne Effectiveness and ×0.9 ADS speed (+6, +16 and ×0.85 when enhanced), with those values doubled when there's no ally within 15m. In the second column, Headseeker provides additional consistency with highly mobile playstyles. Recommended MW: Range, with a Range mod/enhanced mod, or your choice depending on your play style.

For kill-chaining, the trait perk combination of Rangefinder boosts Range by +10, and grants ×1.1 Effective Zoom for Aim Assist, which also constrains recoil by ×0.9, together with Master of Arms which grants ×1.15 damage for 7s (8s when enhanced) after a kill with any weapon - that's a ~0.7s TTk (7c 1b), with a second stack of ×1.25 for 4s (5s enhanced) on any kills with the first stack active - which is a ~0.6s TTK (7c). Pair that with a Master of Arms, Harmony or Binary Orbit energy weapon for a kill-chaining feedback loop!

  The main reason that this gun isn't DOA for PvE is because bungie actually custom tuned the damage scalars for red bars and elites to be higher than the rest of the SMG family, so it actually winds up being one of the strongest weapons for the season. The obvious and most direct comparison is to THE Multimach roll - Attrition Orbs & Kinetic Tremors. While Multimach procs both effects faster, Peculiar Charm simply does more damage. In a vacuum I'd probably still take Multimach, but with the New Gear bonus active the draw of Peculiar Charm is too strong this season. PvP is a different story but a similar ending. This is actually pretty good there, having crazy range for an SMG and being pretty forgiving. Fitted Stock seems to be super important, along with as much range stat as possible."
