I really feel like Jötunn should be a heavy
I really just can’t stand this weapon. It’s essentially a special ammo rocket launcher. Think about it, you [i]spawn[/i] with ammo and get more just by continuing to ravage with it. Fire it down a tight enough lane, and it’s bound to start tracking someone for a kill. Of all the guns in the game, the ridiculous mechanics of the Jötunn have truly astounded me. It’s like no one tested this weapon. Why would anyone even bother running a rocket with it, or even picking up heavy for that matter? It does a rocket’s job well enough. The weapon is so crazy by itself, that picking up heavy ammo is kind of overkill; you don’t really [i]need[/i] it with this gun unless you really aren’t that good. It’s got an endless range, easy tracking, and one-hit-kill damage (with direct hits, [i]and[/i] splash sometimes).
Unless some significant changes or a rework is made to the mechanics of this weapon, I really can’t see a reason for it to sensibly remain an energy weapon. Would it need a buff in crucible if it were a heavy?- probably, but not if it got enough ammo.

Edited by BRAZACK: 5/23/2020 7:15:34 PMAgreed, its a crutch in pvp. Or they could leave it as is but just make so that u cannot use it in crucible. When you go into crucible it gets disabled.

Use it yourself and you will realize it isn’t that good and is actually super inconsistent and way less efficient than using a sniper or shotgun.

I agree it needs a catalyst
-
Make it hitscan with an explosive radius of a charged Nova Warp, and yeah, we can have it as a heavy.

5 RepliesJotunn has poor handling, poor reload speed, a slow charge time and a unique noise when you fire the thing. You have [i]plenty [/i]of leeway to spot a Jotunn user and play around them. Like all fusion rifles, the best thing is to dance in and out of cover and bait them into firing, or work with teammates to flank them while they're trying to charge up. No adjustments needed.
-
Then ALL snipers must be. If you cannot dodge the Jotun rounds you are incompetent but aim assistant snipers are a joke.

4 RepliesNO, the weapon works the way it's supposed to, but it's NOT, I repeat NOT a guarantee kill. It can be avoided very easily, and there is no reason to ruin a great pve weapon just to pacify pvp. It's not overused like recluse or the trials shotgun or mindbender, ECT..... My point is it's not a meta or overused so learn to use dodge and quit trying to get bungie to RUIN another great weapon!!!!!

You can play around Jotunn. It charges slow, reloads slow, has poor handling and it makes a unique noise when firing. Learn to dance in and out of cover and bait opponents into firing. No nerfs. Nerfs don't make the game more fun.
-
A lot of people been asking for that. Myself included. I don’t want it to be nerfed. Just move it to heavy.
-
It's a shotgun with a way bigger range at the cost that it has to be charged. If you don't want to die to it you might want to use your WASD keys / left stick.
