Playing against Ms5oooWatts taught me something about Crucible

Got a match with her. Was like cool, been winning games left and right, let’s see how good she really is. As I figured with “big” youtubers, they ONLY run the OP stuff. Kinetic: Chaperone Energy: Luna’s Howl Power: Crooked Fang Super: Spectral Blades Now my setup- Kinetic: Hazard of the Cast (switched to Tigerspite) Energy: Wavesplitter Power: Edge Transit Super: Golden Gun (6 Shooter) Clash Results- Enemy Team: 97 Top Player: Ms5oooWattsUS (36 - 12) Friendly Team: 63 Top Player: An0nYm0uSxJAMSK8 (Me) (26 - 18) Now.... I’m using a higher skill tier loadout. She is running a lower skill tier loadout. I don’t have Luna’s because I didn’t want to grind for it in the Sweatfest called Competitive. I can just imagine what life would be like if I ran OP weapons like that. I mean, I can’t say she isn’t a BAD player at all, but she’s not good either. She is on par with me. We battled it out a ton, most of the time I kicked her arse more than she did with me. But when she would pull out her Luna’s Howl, she’d always 3-tap me. That, my friends, is the problem. We have to grind our hearts out to get one of the strongest weapons in the Crucible. Why is that? I think they need to make the Pinnacle weapons a trophy, not a bulldozer. The new Pinnacle weapons for Season 5 are exactly how they should be. They should be there to show off to others, not overpower them. I look at these new weapons and would easily use them for a bit, then throw them on the shelf. I got the Broadsword (finally) and realize this gun struggles to take out players. The only way it’s good is when you activate the Desperado perk. This isn’t a low skill tier weapon, nor is it high. It’s just right. And that’s all it needs to be. The Vanguard Pinnacle Fusion Rifle is only good when you get a kill with the first shot, but is gone until your next reload. The Gambit Pinnacle Weapon just fires faster each time you get a kill, and increases as you stack Rampage. Even the new Crucible Pinnacle Weapon is a grenade launcher that fires a micro missile in a straight line stupidly fast. These weapons are all trophies, not bulldozers like Luna’s Howl/Not Forgotten, AND THAT’S OKAY! So Bungie, if you see this, FIX LUNA’S HOWL/NOT FORGOTTEN! A Precision Frame hand cannon with a perk like Magnificent Howl shouldn’t 3 shot someone within 2 seconds! Especially when it’s in the hands of a skilled player. Update: We’re close to trending! Keep the hate coming! I have the utmost respect to the few that replied positively! And I have even more respect to Ms5oooWatts. She is a great player. I bet if she were on my team, we’d have been competing to who could get the most kills before we win. (Obviously I would be the winner! Lol) So if you see this, GG! And can I get a shoutout in the chat!?

  • I don't get all the Luna's hate. There are quite a few other weapons that are far more overpowered and less skill based than Luna's. The thing a lot of people who like using it like about it is getting in 1v1s versus other people who have it. It is next to impossible to kill someone in 3 shots if they are strafing.
