    Merciless score 250

    Would someone at massive or ubi for the love of god, please explain what merciless score 250 means. I have the ruthless, which is completely useless to me, from day one. I also have the merciless stuck at 450 game score. I have looked on various sites, and to date no one seems to know what this means, or how to work it out. I am currently at 461 game score world tier 5, done al the strong holds etc. This now beyond frustrating!!!!!!’

    Its a drop from Hyena bosses. Best for you is to farm Jefferson trade center, grand washington hotell etc.. And maby a boss will drop merciless for you. If you are GearScore Soft capped for your World Tier it will drop at that level. Go get 500gearcsore first and it will drop for you at 500GS. The Merciless "250" - 250 mark is the MINIMUM required gearscore for the item to be able to upgrade to ruthless.

    But do NOT upgrade it to ruthless. It will break your weapon and it will practically become unusable for anything except keeping it as your holster. Merciless has same perks. Ruthless upgrade is actually a NERF to the weapon.

    Thing is, I already have the merciless at 450 gs. I also have the blueprint, which I can craft at 490. But it will not let me craft one without the merciless score250!!! Which makes no damm sense. And it seems that no one at massive or ubi can be bother to explain or even clarify what the hell this means.

    I have the exact same problem. Ive read tons of info about exotics but nobody seems to know where a level 250 merciless can be found. And the blueprint says its needed to upgrade. Im at GS 470 atm with a 450 merciless which i want to upgrade as soon as I reach GS 500.

    I got a GS492 Merciless drop yesterday. The stats seem kind of low for such a weapon. I shot it in the Armory, but I haven't tried it yet. Does it really rock? Can anyone tell me what is so dam great about it?
    Thanks

    The trick is to combine it with plus explosions stats on your gear. And with the demolition specilization. Hit and hold the trigger, miss the second shot. Repeat once twice or untill a max of five hits with with the first bullet. Then trigger the explosion with a hit from tje second bullet. Its epic on targets with massive health pools. I managed do 600k dmg with GS 450.

    I got a 490 merciless and a GS of 500. I got the blueprint from the vendor for the 500 merciless. However, it wont let me make the 500 Merciless because I need a merciless score 250? I farmed this for days and now I got to find a 250? Dev's need to fix this... ASAP

    Unequip your 490 and unfavorite it and you can use it in the crafting

    Yeah I finally got my first Exotic drop today after 156 hours in the game. The Merciless dropped at a GS of 500 and I was checking the blueprints but it says I needed one at GS 250..... =p

    (wasn't gonna do anything with it since it's already 500 but still =)
