Edited by Willakkuma: 3/25/2017 11:25:54 AMThe elite will always be wrecking balls, regardless of what the game offers. Fact. The last patch actually narrowed the skill gap for them, if you hadn't noticed.

Even with so much no land beyond / sidearm usage, I still hold that it takes skill to use that weapon. It was at one time my favorite gun in the crucible when its usage was much lower. They're about to fix the flinch, but at this moment you have to treat it as you would a sniper rifle in year 1. Meaning you can't just stand your ground, you have to strafe, jump, etc just as if you were dueling with hand cannons. All that is about to change anyway with the flinch correction to the gun and the sidearms no longer stacking ammo.

It doesn't take skill to use a sniper that always has ammo and doesn't flinch when taking suppression. If anything it's a crutch.

If you miss the headshot you're done. There are multiple ways to avoid getting shot in the face by that gun. The one way that doesn't work, at least until Tuesday, is to stand still and shoot at the sniper. I wouldn't call NLB/sidearm a crutch, so much as the most effective way to have a long distance/close quarters option given the change to special ammo. It's just the way it is right now.
