He makes good points.
At this point, I'm not sure what meta I would like to see, but it ain't ARs.
English
-
Everyone said buff ARs and bungie does it now you don't want it. You can understand why bungie struggles when they get this type of feedback.
-
It's because Bungie overbuffed them, like they pretty much always do with at least one weapon type with every major balance pass.
-
They didn't though, they perform now as well as they should in my opinion. Scouts and pulse need buffs as do hand canons.
-
They (Autos) really don't. This really is a case where it'd be better to hammer down the outlier rather than trying to bring everything else up. 110 and 140 HCs need a buff, Scouts need a buff, 450 Pulses need a buff, 600 Autos need a nerf (not back to their pre-buff state, but somewhere in the middle). Everything else is more or less fine.
-
And they'll probably get a nerf because of whiners like you.
-
I really don't think EVERYONE wanted ARs. In fact, I remember people being bummed about it, callin it "easy mode." Personally I didn't care, back then, but NOW, I'm ready to move on.
-
Nah sorry, since launch ARs have struggled and every buff post mentioned them.

Edited by Eden: 8/15/2020 11:30:55 AMYou're forgetting that 450 Autos were meta all the way until Warmind.
-
Sort of, duel primary loadouts were a huge mistake.
-
I like pulses a lot. They combine two different weapon skills into one. You have to pace your shots like a HC but also trace your target to make sure the full spread hits like an auto. They are the most skilled weapons in the game in my opinion.
-
Bygones wants a word. That gun is a laser and totally underapteciated in this meta.
-
540RPM Pulses have always had a very competitive TTK provided you can aim, it's just no one uses them because "haha Auto Rifle go brrrrr."
-
I have noticed constant damage causes pressure in gun duels and can make people miss their shots due to not having the composure in the situation.
-
Yeah. I would like to see a Bad JuJu meta or something along those lines.
-
For sure, but I would be worried we would see more team shooting. But hell, we have that already too.
-
The fix for team shooting is raising ttk.
-
Ehhh idk, we had that in vanilla d2 and it made team shooting even worse. I remember like first weekend of trials of the nine and it was like both full teams peek at the same time with Mida. I think autos with lower body shot damage and lower range would help pulses immensely without even tuning them. I think it’s just a range issue mostly right now. Autos competing in pulse space is the same argument when they nerfed pulses for competing in scout rifle space.
-
If Bungie took the time and adjusted hard damage falloff, the game would be better. Make people pay for using a screw driver to pound in a nail, so to speak
-
That’s like asking for a snow day in July lol.
-
It would be virtually be a new game at that point. Recoil and damage fallout would definitely fill up the diapers in the Destiny community. lol
-
Bows!
-
Scout rifles!
