PvP/Trials - What's the problem with the currently most used Weapons?

Hello Guardians =) I don't play Trials, but I know that usually when some Weapon is considered the best or broken, people tend to use it anyway because in Trials victories are important for reaching the Lighthouse [i](unless something has changed and I don't know)[/i]. I've seen on Twitter some content creators and users complain about the currentyl most used Weapons in Trials and I was wondering why. Is it because the presence of Weapons suchs as Forerunner, Arbalest and Lorentz? Is is because the are many Exotics? I tied to ask on Twitter but I've receveid no asnwer. Thanks in advance for your opinions =)

  • This meta is bad because it's very strict. Arbalest/Lorentz + smg/sidearm, no counter to it. Same goes for subclasses. More than half of overall trials playerbase using either arc titan or void hunter. And if you literally forced to use those things to have a chance to win against same or higher skilled team it makes D2 boring, it isn't a Counter Strike with only like 5 usable weapons, Destiny should have a variety, but it doesn't right now. Nearly all my trials teammates left pvp for Overwatch and CoD, because pvp is frustrating right now. Even stasis meta was better

    • It’s because PvP is and always has been horrifically unbalanced. Any meta that takes the title is something that’s generally overpowered, requires very little skill, and is hard to counter in most scenarios. There’s usually a community uproar when the meta weapons aren’t weapons those people can adequately use or are allowing players to become untouchable. Then there’s the fact that these issues are only amplified by players being “allowed” to use Cronus and Xim, because players essentially become unstoppable while being able to one-tap you and your teammates.
