Marksmanship.
I always run with a Scout Rifle in my Primary loadout. I'll switch between a Sniper and a Fusion Rifle in the Special slot depending on the mission requirements. I only really started using the Fusion Rifle when the Murmer came out, but it's got much better range than the shotgun and has allowed me to change up my play style in a way that I never could have with a shotgun.
It's all about maintaining separation from the bad guys. If they get within shotgun range, I'm not doing my job and if I really need to lay some spank on the darkness...Hand Cannon (The Last Word.)
Now, if Bungie only allowed us to use a Hand Cannon in the secondary slot instead of a Sniper, Fusion, or Shotty, I'd be a happy camper. Just like the Halo days. DMR and alien energy pistol.

Ohgodyesthisplease! I'd totally load a hand cannon instead of a special weapon for about half the situations I can think of.

I use Invective in PVE as a backup for my scout rifle when being overrun. It gives me enough of a window to pull back. I also like that I don't have to worry about ammo for it.

I have the invective bounty. Is it worth me trying to stagger through the crucible bit?

The crucible part is easier than you think.

Thanks. Will give it a go later. Do like the exotic bounties and playing around with new weapons. Feels like a good time to do this one before the patch.

Did the crucible portion in one match for it
