The great pulse rifle nerf
I've been a pulse rifle user from long ago. I love the feel of the weapon and how it rewards precision. It's true they are the top choice for crucible and other weapon types have a harder time competing. However, was 'nerfing' to this degree necessary? 9% base damage reduction to LROF and 8% to MROF? I'm sure with head seeker there will still be a possible two burst kill. But, does anyone feel this may be an overkill? Thoughts?

2 RepliesI would have been happier with a 5% nerf. With the condition is that is not enough they could do a 1% each weak till balanced. I don't like to see swings in damage by 10%. Pulse rifles are strong now. HC's are currently trash, shotgun sliding is ridiculous. And fusion rifles are unusable. So the weapon balance update will change crucible. Hopefully for the better. On the plus side, Bungie is boosting most weapon damage for pve.
