[b]In summary:[/b]
A wide range of great PvP rolls this week, but unfortunately nothing that really stands out on the PvE end of the spectrum. I'd argue this week's Palindrome is probably the best one that's ever been sold. Also a good week for any avid Scout Rifle users, with a bunch of solid rolls. The Wounded is still going strong, and I have yet to see a bad roll for that gun. Any fans of the low RoF Pulse Rifle will love this week's Parthian Shot, as it comes with a great roll for both PvP and PvE. Unfortunately, a pretty bad week for heavies, as not a single one stood out to me, and even the Bonekruscher, a weapon which has had pretty consistent rolls, is sub par this week.
Note:
This ranking is based off of the vendor weapons and the vendor weapons alone. It does not take weapons from other sources into account. For example, I would definitely use Fatebringer over this week's vendor Wail. However, this list is for players who may not be a high enough light to complete endgame content, or for players who are just looking to switch up their loadout.

I just looked into that wail and it looks pretty snappy with versatility in PvE and PvP. The alternative perk which I'd use more over perfect balance is hot swap which would fit with quick draw and the quick draw IS sight
