Catalyst that does not justify the grind.

What are the exotic catalyst that you finished and it feels like it was not worth the time?
I did the Borealis one just for the sake of doing it and it seems it gave only Reload Speed and no hidden perk?

I only feel massive Improvment on The Whisper Catalyst, and outbreaker does not feel as much. What do you think?

Well it tells you what it will do beforehand so you can decide then and there if its worth doing

I am doing it cause don't have much else to do, also because people say you should finish catalysts in order to have drops for weapons you need.

Sunshot catalyst.
I try to get it since 2 years in strikes.

My dad just got sunshot and its catalyst in the same week...

All catalysts are worth it for the orbs

I feel you, I havent even seen other people get that bloody thing.

I got Sunshot cata some half year after i got the actual weapon. RNG. Clanmate had the same experience with Graviton Lance cata.

All catalysts are worth doing, if for nothing else but to be less bored. Some of them though, like Eriana's, Izanagi's, Acrius etc are giving major boost. Outbreak's cata is far from being bad, if you need wave clearing or boss damage in Leviathan or Last Wish, its wiping the battlefield.

The worst ones are likely Mida and Worldline. Mida gets something that it doesnt need and Worldline got pretty much pulverized by the nerf, barely anyone using it.

add black talon to the list, sword changes made it useless

Quick question on topic ~

I don't bother much with catalyst hunting ( I do find some though ), but should you ideally have the weapon in your inventory if your hunting a specific catalyst ? Or will it just drop activity-wise ?

So far, for most of my exotic catalyst drops I didn't have the weapon in my inventory, so it's definitely not required. I don't know if it increases your chance, but I doubt it.

Defnitley sunshot catalyst for me, it took me 400+ hours to finally get that damn thing. Sunshot sitting in my vault since i'm not even currently using it.

Its gotta be Mida. The scout with the fastest reload speed in the game did not need outlaw. Second the Graviton lance catalyst, "Whats that?" Bungie cries. "A pulse rifle with infinite range? Give it more range!"... Well its not like they could have done anything fun with the catalyst anyway, like bump the range on the void projectiles or made them travel outwards from the explosion until they find targets to latch onto or something.

Black Talon is frequently used in PvP because its ranged and you can peak with it.
