I'm -blam!-ing tired of dealing with crucibabies and their shit. First Suros. That gun was so fun in PvE, then the shit got nerfed out of all autos. Then Mythoclast. Same thing. I used to melt the Darkness with it, now it hangs over the fireplace. All handcannons. I used to use Hawkmoon religiously, but I rarely did crucible. Al of the sudden, whenever I attack a group of enemies, at least 3 shots out of the twelve miss. Why is this an exotic again? Oh right: it has more than 8 rounds. Then pulses. I had a god roll hopscotch pilgrim before it was cool. I only used it in crucible, but it wasnt OP by any means. now it sits next to my mythoclast. Finally, Bungie turns its attention to scout rifles. Literally all of the primary weapon classes have been or are about to be nerfed. Now lets look at Special weapons. First fusion rifles bought the farm when crucibabies bitched about the mythoclast and Bungie catered to them with their usual ineptitude. Then they were inexplicably nerfed AGAIN because the pussies on the sandbox team couldnt handle being killed by "one guy" who was decent with fusions. Then shotguns got nerfed in TTK, and now they hit like a wet noodle in PvE. Just as a testament to this bullshit, it is now more efficient to snipe a rushing Fallen Captain or Hive Knight then to shotgun them. On the topic of Snipers, now their scopes, zoom, stability, and ammo are ALL GETTING NERFED. Remind me again, what exactly about having more ammo in PvP makes you more OP? Nothing. More incompetence. Heavy weapons. Blast range and damage got nerfed because bitches in Crucible didnt know how to -blam!-ING dodge. Now HMG's are losing their ammo, which will make them useful for about 10 seconds during an entire PvE activity. And thats a stretch. Swords are niche weapons, so Bungie hasnt bothered ruining them yet. In conclusion: Nerfs do nothing. A new meta develops as weapons get shittier and shittier, and Crucibabies continue to bitch. Bungie is incompetent (big surprise) or deliberately ruining things. They refuse to differentiate between the very different settings of PvP or PvE, so everyone suffers do to the whinings of kids who refuse to git gud. Snipers in PvE will be ruined, while they will largely be unchanged in PvP. Because all endgame PvE activities involve standing in a confined space to get a buff (or not die), "increased special ammo drops" are worse than worthless because Bungie is deliberately throwing bullshit in the PvE players faces. "Oh, dont like that you only have 15 rounds for Golgoroth and no other weapons can compete with sniper's DPS? well, we'll give you more special ammo! You just have to stop shooting and run and get it ! Tee hee hee!" Since when did being a badass guardian of the solar system involve scrounging for ammo? In PvP, rarely does one get a full inventory, usually just a full magazine, so they will not be affected. TL;DR Bungie sucks (perhaps deliberately) at weapon balancing, and crucible players' bitchings have enabled Bungie to be this way. If you are a crucible player who has complained about weapons you couldnt combat, then you have no one to blame but yourself for the lack of weapon diversity and interest.
