Hmmmm........ I don't have time to explain to explain why I don't have time to explain, but... There was a time when Auto Rifles were much more powerful. But that was long ago. Until Bungie wakes and finds their mistake, I am the one who continues to use Auto Rifles. You must have no end of questions, friend. In its bated breath, Bungie created the High RoF Auto Rifles for those who can wield them as weapons--Guardians--to protect us and do what the true Auto Rifles no longer can. I could tell you of the great battles months ago, how the Auto Rifles were crippled. I could tell you of the power of Bungie, it's ancient enemy. There are many tales told throughout the Forums to frighten newbs. Lately, those tales have stopped. Now... the newbs are frightened anyway. Bungie is coming back. We will not survive this time. Its armies surround us. The nerfs are just the beginning. You must push back Bungie. Guardians are fighting on the Forums and beyond. Join them. Your weapon will guide you. I only hope you choose wisely.
