    Backfire Bleed damage

    As of this morning the Backfire seems to be doing limitless bleed damage, even with an armour build with armour regen built in you can't overcome the stacks of damage being done to you by reloading, within a day you have made another exhotic just another trophy wall piece with no use, my build has 1.2 mil armour and if you are hitting targets for the stacks it's getting eaten to the stage it's gone. There was a limit on this damage til today that seems to have disappeared overnight.

    The whole batch of exotics had negatives when that group was released I will never use any of them.

    You need appr 93% bleed protection. Most use hazard rolls with bleed gear mods. Not sure its worth the efforts.

    I have been trying to scrap together a build for the backfire but I haven't managed yet. Even have two pieces of Yaahl gear and been using mods with bleed resistance and haz mods too.

    As others have said, spec into hazard protection and bleed resistance mods. I've got 60/150 crit chance/damage and 96% hazard/bleed resistance and the build hits tremendously hard at effectively 60/350 crit and at that bleed resistance, it doesn't even touch me.

    It's a niche weapon, created to make Bruce's DZ Hazard Protection build hit harder

    (2)Ceska + Yaahl. Fill in the rest as you prefer.
