When it comes to PvP, this gun is absolutely NOT "dead on arrival." While it does have a base zoom of 14, it has now been blessed with (the one and only) Rangefinder.
Rangefinder effectively increases a weapon's zoom by 10% - so Cold Front over here goes from a zoom stat of 14, to 15.4. This is in line with other top tier SMGs w/ Rangefinder like Funnelweb, Out of Bounds, and recently IKELOS SMG 1.0.3.
Bear in mind that the only non-sunset SMG with a zoom stat higher than this (off the top of my head) is Tarrabah at 16 (RIP Shayura's).
So is Rangefinder mandatory in PvP? Uhh... yes... but this applies for ALL SMGs capable of rolling Rangefinder, so this is absolutely not an issue relating specifically to Cold Front; Bungie has failed to address the insane influence the zoom stat has on SMGs in general.

As a MnK player, I do not care about stability. At. All. Never have, never will. You don't need it. Most SMGs have a base recoil stat of 90-100, meaning you can just pull down on your mouse a little and be totally fine. For my joystick twiddling fellas out there though, you're probably gonna want some help. I personally don't know how much stability you'd need, but I can say you're in luck thanks to another perk: Tap the Trigger.
This perk is phenomenal on this weapon, regardless of your input method. +40 Stability, -50% recoil kick, and a 10% tighter Accuracy Cone, all for 0.6 seconds. What's this weapon's TTK you ask? 0.67 seconds for Guardians with less than tier-8 Resilience. This is in line with the popular Lightweight 900RPM SMGs. Your TTK will go up to a still respectable 0.77 beyond that, whilst maintaining more forgiveness than the aforementioned Lightweights, which now also have a slower TTK (0.73s) against high Resilience, and have a steeper damage & Aim-Assist falloff.
So for 8 out of the 9 bullets needed to secure a kill, Tap the Trigger will be active. I shouldn't have to tell you that's crazy.

My personal god roll I'm hunting for, as a MnK PvP player: Full Bore, Accurized, Tap the Trigger, Rangefinder, Range MW. I'll probably put an Icarus Grip mod on it. That's 23.46 metres of full damage, which beats the likes of Funnelweb, all while having a lesser falloff penalty. You're going to beat any Lightweight at the upper ranges, and still compete up close.
Controller players, sacrifice as much stability for range as you're comfortable with. I'd say Smallbore would be a nicer looking pick than Full Bore, but other than that, T-t-T should have you covered.
One last thing: remember to use the Quick Charge mod, for ALL SMGs. +25 Handling for SMGs, Shotguns, Fusions, and (for some reason) Sidearms. You won't be needing more than 75 Handling ever.

SMGs are great in most activities in PvE; refer to some of the other reviews for a more in-depth PvE analysis.

But when it comes to PvP... dead on arrival? Hell nah! Put some respect on Cold Front!

i'm personally with you on cold front being better than people give it credit for but you know stability does more than affect recoil right? it also affects accuracy cone degredation, so low stability will make your shots start getting less sticky a lot faster. tap the trigger does a lot to help this, but stability is far from useless.

Tap the Trigger still resolves this, but your aim assist & damage falloff is more important than bloom on smgs imo; I hardly ever notice bloom with smgs on MnK.
Like I said, sacrifice as much stability for range as you're comfortable with, but this thing has really low base stability to begin with so Tap the Trigger is realistically the best option you've got

If you missed the Stats for All + One for All roll on The Title during Guardian Games this summer, this is a weaker kinetic version. It's got less stability, reload, aim assist, AE, and zoom than The Title; but has higher handling. I had issues with last year's Cold Front because it felt like 1/10 rounds just disappeared. Honestly there isn't much to work with in this perk pool. Cascade Point is kind of interesting - higher RoF on an aggressive frame feels good; pairs well with an auto-loading special or a bow if you're into double primary loadouts. I would absolutely keep SFA or Perpetual as the 3rd column.

For PVP do not take Gutshot. Low base stability combined with 14 zoom and lower target acquisition means you're going to be missing most of the shots you shoot. Same argument with Slickdraw. I'm looking for Perpetual Motion + Rangefinder which solves both problems. That being said, this SMG is just not built for PVP - Just use Extraordinary Rendition or Blood Feud (which is craftable).

Edit: Pulled a Subsistence + Cascade with Fluted Barrel and Appended mag this weekend, absolutely hilarious to use in casual playlist PVE. Glacioclasm a thrall or shank and go to town with 900rpm aggressive frame damage that reloads on each kill. Definitely a good roll if you're looking to have some fun while you grind out the 2k Dawning Weapon kills to get the gilded seal.

As someone who always loved Cold Front, this is by far the best version of it. Frenzy or rampage for PVE depending on what your playstyle is and the combo of perpetual motion witn rangefinder is one of the highest ranges smgs in the game right now. Highly recommend farming for a good one of these.

Honestly, I'm just really happy another SMG got Stats-for-All/One-for-All. This helps to give that high stat/damage build that Title had, but in the kinetic. :D

Stats for All + One for All is the best damage combination, something this weapon desperately needs for even the legendary campaign. Even if you go with Frenzy, the feeling is like you are hitting a wall when you try to kill ads with this thing. I had to swap to Osteo Striga in the middle of the activity because it was taking too long to kill the enemies. Low level content this thing shred and its very satisfying to see everything dying for this gun, but again - everything dies for any gun in low level difficulty.

For PvP the stats are abysmal for this gun. It has a good perk pool for a SMG, having Cascade Point for anyone who wants Desperado on a SMG, Rangefinder the safest choice for most of the guns in the game, Air Assault now that bungie buffed the perk, Tap the Trigger (another safe choice), and Perpetual Motion that gives you a lot of stats by basically doing what you do - move. But the stats hold back this gun - it's the only reason why no one recommend for PvP.

PvE - Cold front is a solid SMG, with subsistence/stat for all + damage perk being really solid. However outside of that it faces too much competition from the other elemental smgs that can synergize with the class i.e. Funnelweb, Calus, Ikelos, out of bounds. This makes feel like a good smg but fails not due to bad rolls but it's just not the way we build craft anymore. Fun for casual content though.
PvP - This is a melt machine. It makes up for being one of the lower zoom smgs with the god rolls of tap the trigger + rangefinder for the borrowed time roll or something only this smg can do at the moment: Cascade point. Cascade point makes this a bullet hose and shreds anyone from close to medium range with just how many bullets it shoots out. (Personally recommend pairing it with a harmony smg [I use shayura} to become a kill chaining monster)

Absolutely love this thing in PvP. I managed to luck into the max AE roll w/ Fluted + Extended mag + Air Assault + Rangefinder and a handling MW. I absolutely *love* it Combined with In-Flight Compensators (which Bungie should just make a permanent mod), it fires like a dream from the air. I absolutely recommend trying out a maxed out AE roll if you can manage to snag one before Grandma leaves.

I wish I could give it the same glowing review in PvE, but unfortunately, with the advent of subclass verbage and subclass perks, energy or stasis pirmary weapons are more desirable unless the weapon has access to Osmosis for Volatile builds on Warlock, or the gun does something special with either its roll or origin trait. If I want to use a kinetic SMG, it's probably going to be Submission for the Vow origin trait. Kinetic primaries aren't in a great spot right now, especially in endgame PvE. My PvE roll of Perp. Motion + Frenzy feels good, but that's all it really has going for it. In a weapon meta where this has to live side-by-side with insanely good add clear options such as Calus Mini-tool, Ikelos SMG w/ voltshot, and Funnelweb with volatile, I'd unfortunately have to give this a hard pass in favour of other guns in a GM. That doesn't mean it can't be a great daily driver however. It's not flashy, but it can still get the job done.

Final verdict: Absolutely wonderful in PvP, but PvE has much better options. It's a real shame and non-Stasis Kinetic slot primary weapons really need help right now.

Absolutely dead on arrival for PvP until bungie adjusts this weapon's low zoom (14, most other smgs have 15).

Not sure why they forgot about Cold Front when adjusting SMG zooms recently. Plus aggressives have poor stability intrinsically which means most of the time without investment (which you would much rather put into range to offset its low zoom and make it even slightly competitive) it usually has <20 stability which causes you to receive ADDITIONAL flinch. Yeah.

If you feel like using it anyways, viable rolls are smallbore/hammer forged, accurized rounds, perpetual motion or tap the trigger (which is active for most of the TTK) in col 3, and rangefinder in col 4 (again, mandatory for it to be competitive).
Meme roll: slickdraw + gutshot. A true test of your accuracy.

PvE: subsistence + frenzy/rampage, or the tried and true SfA + OfA combo to offset its poor stats. The other stasis smg that released this season just does it better imo.

VERY IMPORTANT EDIT: me big dumdum. According to light.gg Cold Front’s 14 zoom is shared by Funnelweb, Out of bounds, and the new Ikelos smg. All of these can roll Rangefinder too. My “dead on arrival” point is pretty invalid now that the other smgs were nerfed down to 14. Cold Front isn’t really held back anymore. Go nuts grinding rolls guys! (Leaving the original review up)

The base stats and first two columns are identical between this one and the old one.
