PvE Randy’s Throwing Knife Roll
| Slot | Trait |
|---|---|
| Barrel | Arrowhead Brake |
| Magazine | Flared Magwell |
| Column 3 Trait | Rapid Hit |
| Column 4 Trait | Kinetic Tremors |
| Origin Trait | One Quiet Moment |
| Masterwork | Range |
| Mod | Minor Spec |
Barrel: Randy’s Throwing Knife has a horrible recoil pattern so Arrowhead Brake is the best choice for this slot. Other options include anything that can help your range, as Rapid-Fire Frame Scouts have poor range stats.
Magazine: Increasing the reload speed with Flared Magwell is a great option here. Other options include anything that increase your magazine size, although avoid Extended Mag.
Column 3 Trait: Like most playlist weapons, there are a lot of options in the third and fourth columns, with quite a few decent options. For this roll, we went with Rapid Hit for the passive benefits that come from making headshots. Perpetual Motion and Pugilist are also decent options.
Column 4 Trait: Kinetic Tremors is a very powerful perk in PvE. If you don’t opt for that Rampage, Kill Clip, Swashbuckler, and Focused Fury are all great options as well.
Origin Trait: One Quiet Moment is a decent passive benefit, but there is no choice here.
Masterwork: Rapid-Fire Frame Scout Rifles have poor range stats for Scout Rifles, so buffing that number is always a great choice.
Mods: Minor spec helps take care of rank and file combatants and is great for scout rifles due to their lesser ammo capacity.
Conclusion: Rapid-Fire Frame Scouts are a great option in PvE, especially where range is necessary. The perks Randy’s Throwing Knife make if a great choice over others as well. A great Kinetic option to have in your kit. Its also great choice for Gambit since it works well against other players as well.

| Magazine | Ricochet Rounds |
| Column 3 Trait | Perpetual Motion |
| Column 4 Trait | Kill Clip |
| Origin Trait | One Quiet Moment |
| Masterwork | Range |
| Mod | Targeting Adjuster |
Barrel: Since Rapid-Fire Frame Scout Rifles have a poor range stat, its imperative to get that stat up as much as possible. Hammer-Forged Rifling does that with no negatives.
Magazine: Ricochet Rounds is always a great perk in PvP, since it raises both range and stability. High-Caliber rounds is also a great choice for the added flinch.
Column 3 Trait: Lots of decent options here. Perpetual Motion is always a great choice. Other decent choices to consider include Rapid Hit and Zen Moment.
Column 4 Trait: Kill Clip is just a great perk in PvP in general. It allows this weapon to kill in 4 shots rather than 5. Other options that work well are Rampage and Swashbuckler.
Origin Trait: One Quiet Moment is a decent passive benefit, but there is no choice here.
Masterwork: Rapid-Fire Frame Scout Rifles have poor range stats for Scout Rifles, so buffing that number is always a great choice.
Mods: Targeting Adjuster is just a great general mod for PvP.
Conclusion: Randy’s Throwing Knife is a powerful and fun weapon in PvP. While its TTK isn’t the best, it is very forgivable and consistent.
