Q: What are masterwork rolls?
A: Most legendary weapons are capable of being Masterworked. The masterwork system is a way for you to upgrade your favorite weapons to their maximum potential.
Q: What does it take to upgrade a weapon to a masterwork?
A: Upgrading your weapons, in broad terms, takes a small amount of glimmer, legendary shards, and, most importantly, Enhancement Cores.
Depending on what Tier your weapon is at, the requirements to raise it to the next tier increase the closer the weapon is to being fully masterworked (Tier 10).
Q: What benefits do I get for masterworking a weapon?
A: Each tier that you increase your weapon will grant a small buff to a single stat, chosen randomly when the item drops.
Beyond that, at Tier 5 you gain access to a kill tracker. At Tier 10, your multi-kills will generate orbs of light.
Q: So what are these "masterwork roll" stats?
A: These are the possible stats that upgrading your weapon will grant a bonus to. Depending on what tier you are at, you can grant anywhere from 1-10 additional points in any of the stats listed to your weapon.
Q: Any catch with this?
A: The Bungie API currently says that all weapons can potentially roll with all stats as their masterwork stat. This obviously isn't accurate, as Blast Radius isn't applicable to, say, Auto Rifles.
The list you see on this page is trimmed to only show stats that actually appear on the weapon. However, it is possible that Bungie has additional logic behind the scenes that further filters these
possibilities to, for example, prevent certain items from being able to have an Impact masterwork. Until Bungie modifies the API files to 100% accurately display which masterwork stats are possible on
each item, take what you see here with a pinch of salt.
Preferable Roll(PVE) - Triple Tap+Vorpal with Fluted barrel, Appended Mag and reload MW.
Overall a great boss damage weapon for when you are solo but not the best when you have a team.
On PvP it shoots bullets, kill enemies handles like a boat 1 star, nothing special.
Pvp, I've tried a snapshot, and it the scope and the way it shoots is weird, so I'll have to get used to it
Get yourself a tactical mag (all mag perks will get you 4 mags so tactical is the way to go), triple tap, and vorpal weapon with boss spec. Deals more damage per hit than Whisper without box breathing (catalyst) to bosses.
For barrel and MW can be anything really, but you won't need range for PVE, tested in tribute hall and doesn't get damage fall off from anywhere possible.
I grinded out to get Triple Tap and Vorpal Weapon, which makes it overall a solid sniper, with an increase to boss damage that puts it a cut above other aggressive snipers in PVE, with absolutely no special conditions for some extra damage.
