I don't understand how people think autos should've been nerfed. You can wreck any auto using a handcannon. Even without a handcannon; they weren't overpowered, pulse rifles were just weak. Pulse rifles should've been buffed, I think we all agree on that. But completely reducing a type of weapon to trash, pretty drastic. PvE they are weak as all hell, as for pvp, they are garbage. Literally garbage. I mainly use TLW, and auto users have no chance to deal substantial damage. Now, Red Deaths damage in pvp is a whole different can of worms.
