Justice for the Unknown

Weapon patch 2.0 was pure gold for many destiny players tried of skillless weapons over used to get an easy kill in pvp. The question unasked is why? What makes Thorn or TheLastWord so hated??? The main reason is the infamous 2 shot headshot. As for 98% of the destiny community a NERF was mandatory among these 2 weapons, yet will a nerf cry really fix the true problem at hand??? 1st off there is huge difference between a PATCH and NERF. A nerf is what the true vets of destiny witnessed to the beloved auto rifle and said nerf rendered the whole [u]weapon class[/u] useless. A patch would simply fixxed what truely makes the weapon over powered. Take Away TLW's bugged headshot dmg of 111 while aiming and what do u have? A very obnoxious, hard to aim handcannon. Take away Thorns Damage over time and it's no longer feared. Why nerf the whole class of handcannons?? Pulse rifles are 2shot headshots and they are receiving buff in the 2.0 update. Counter arguments? Harder to land those headshots with a pulse rifle?? Try useing High Cal rounds on, I dare to say, ANY weapon you can roll it on and go into pvp vs a thorn user. Your odds of winning the gun fight increased from 23% to 45%. How do I know this? How do I get the numbers? Fast fire thorn and try to keep it on a headshot level. Got it masterd? Now try that while getting hit with High Cal rounds and what's left of the stability on thorn is minimal to none. They will not kill you of they can't land the headshots. What's next?? Nerf pulse buff scouts ? Nerf scouts buff fusion? You guys are running into circles, and the nerf cry every time you get killed by something in crusible is makeing matters worse. However, words will not justify an action. Continue and see if my "rant" was true or not. Ghorn got a patch to its perk and every "elitest" raid group CRYED. Why is the nerf to handcannons getting pushed under the rug so quickly? I for one agree I don't want to be useing the same weapon in the next year of destiny, however I do want see the game improve but throwing a nerf here and there is nothing but being pure lazy.

  • so which weapon takes skill? other than maybe no land beyond, none of the weapons take skill everyone looks for the weapons and perks that will give them an advantage. if it's not the exotic hand cannon it will be something else
