Bungie really left PvP in a bad state. There are SO many guns and archetypes that are viable in PvP but Bungie has left shotguns out of control. People get to main them for entire matches. Between the special brick spawns and ammo generation, no one ever has to use a primary weapon. Not to mention shotguns neutralize everything in the game. From one shorting people out of a super that took all match to gain, to hiding around corners and killing people quicker than they can kill with a heavy weapon, to having a get out of jail card even when someone out plays them. It is AWFUL. Every match is full of nothing but shotguns. Bungie needed to either spawn ammo bricks, OR make everyone generate their special ammo through kills. NOT both. The population is dwindling, so you end up playing the same people every day. Then to top it off, all you see are the same Felwinters, Matador, Inquisitor, Chaperone, sliding shotguns match after match after match. I have to spend half of my time grabbing special ammo crates so the other team can’t get them.
Not to mention the same 3 hand cannons that EVERYONE has to use.
Then you have infinite ability spams from warlocks and titans while everyone complains about hunters going invis.
The crucible is not in a good state. And this is how it will always be

Weapons are out of control yet when I use them I get inconsistent damage output. My opponent’s felwinters can ohk from a distance yet I have to have the barrel shoved all the way up his -blam!- to where the trigger is almost inside, while throwing a jab to get a ohk

2 RepliesYou’re running a smg and a close range pulse rifle and expect to compete with a close range special weapon. If you want to run double primary then you need to have bigger difference in your ranges. For the smg, run a scout or long range pulse. If you like your pulse rifle then run a sidearm. You’ll stand a better chance this way. Alternatively, run a fusion rifle. The most broken special weapon.

1 Replyhttps://destinytracker.com/destiny-2/db/insights 4 shotguns in the top 60 guns on usage. 3 are exotic and numbers 13,14 & 15, the other is 23. Hardly 'all anyone uses & they main them now for full games' 😆
