SET LOADOUT COMP/TRIALS. Hear me out..

Firstly, anyone who takes the time to read please provide thoughts. Constructive criticism is great and welcomed. I would love nothing more than for comp/trials to provide set weapons to choose from, one of each weapon type, without perks. Stock standard. For years on end, we’ve been waiting for Bungie to prove loot based PvP can be balanced, and after six years, they’ve proven they can’t. You simply cannot. You try provide multiple versions of each weapon type with varying archetypes/stats, and ultimately one always ends up with the best stats, then matched with the best perks, outperforms it’s bounds. Whether it be a legendary god roll that does the job of multiple weapon types in one or an exotic that straight up annihilates, the loot based PvP will never be balanced. I still to this day believe and say that the best crucible we’ve ever had in Destiny was the D1 beta where we all used uncommon tier weapons that didn’t do more than they were meant to. Some even say the pre Taken King build for Rift at conventions was pinnacle crucible because, yes, they were given set weapons to use for it. We have Crucible Labs, a playlist I had so much hope for when it was announced, yet off the top of my head all that’s been tested is Scorch Cannon PvP and half health PvP. Why can’t we at the very least have set loadouts tested in Labs?? Comp and Trials are there to compare player skill, but all it ever comes down to is who can abuse Destiny best. Aim assist stats, bullet magnetism/enlarged hitboxes, godrolls outperforming everything else, broken exotics, select superior classes/subclasses. Set loadouts would remove all the bullsh**. I’d even prefer no supers or abilities ‘cause they get just as abused with 100 intellect hiding & waiting for supers or 100 discipline nade spam. Been flawless, had my ups and downs, even with adapting and countering the issues, it’s never fun even on the winning end. Would set loadouts to choose from for playlists meant to compare us and not our loot really be THAT bad, would that really be worse than the unbalanced flavour of the month stale mess we have instead??
