  • They nerfed it 30% slick, still missing 1/2 of what they removed

  • Yeah because they globally increased everything. I'm sure they thought to reduce scout rifles to keep everything in line or balanced. Now they see that was wrong or too much and are correcting it. Big deal man. It not like they were actively trying to make scout rifles a weaker weapon. If they thought scout rifles were too powerful that they needed to implement a nerf they would have stated so. Yes they lowered their impact but it wasn't for the sake of nerfing. Forsaken brought a whole new sandbox and adjustments were made because that's where they though they needed them to be. They were wrong and a correction is coming.

  • So you are ok with them lying to us Remember their promise of being more open and honest with community Major fail by them covertly nerfing scouts, I wonder what else they openly, I mean secretly nerfed Don’t defend them when they are blatantly shady and dishonest

  • Really, are you that -blam!-. Do you wear a tinfoil hat everywhere you go? Dude it's a whole new sandbox and it was an adjustmade as they made adjustments to everything! They told us that, where was the lie? You can't call it a nerf cause forsaken hadn't been run out in the wild yet. No could comp lain abp it scout rifle performance in forsaken as none of us had played it yet. They see their adjustment wasn't right and are correcting course. They are letting us know beforebtheu correct it. This isn't defending anything it just what is actually happening. Wake up man.

  • After secretly nerfing them by 30%! So then they are still nerfed by 15% which wasn't needed at all. I know no one who ever used Scout rifles pre-Forsaken, since they garbage anyway. Pretty much everyone was using either pulse or auto rifles. So Bungie was completely off their rocker to nerf their damage by 30% in PVE. Just doesn't make any sense at all. They needed a buff if anything.

  • Mida is a shadow of itself, used to have hcr’s, which bung balanced away

  • Mida was just a hype and one of the easiest Exotics to get at that time.

  • Is that a confirmed number on the nerf?! If that’s the case, 15% ain’t gonna be enough as you rightly point out....

  • weird... the MIDA ruled Crucible before the PR buff and the Nameless Midnight has been a constant utility since launch. 🤷🏽‍♂️

  • I used Nameless Midnight almost exclusively in PVE from the beginning. Hard hitting at long range with very little dropoff and good at clearing weak adds in groups? Yes please. Then they made it suck, even after I wasted cores to infuse it up to 500+.

The simple fact that they thought Scouts needed a nerf, completely baffles me. Either they play some other version of this game or they live in an alternative reality where Scouts are stronger than The Sleeper.

  • Nameless midnight, plaedis corrector and manannan sr4? You watch most streamers and one of the guns was being used in PvE most the time pre-forsaken.

  • So what? Everybody was using Better devils too. What's the point of making good weapons just to nerf them when everybody likes to use them? They should do MORE great weapons, increase the pool of excellent gear, not nerf what's already good. That approach just make everything become average, become boring and not fun. They should know better, they tried that in Y1 of D2 and it was a big flop.

  • That's my point precisely. They were ok, no nerf was needed, either before Forsaken or after. Bungie can't just stop screwing itself.
