Oh please. Do tell me how easy it is to line up a shot in Crota's End when you've got dozens of Thrall running at you from multiple directions in the Abyss, with a Knight charging in the background. I can think of several places in the raids, and especially in Nightfalls where you're swarmed by hordes of enemies in similar situations that make it difficult to land the precision shots needed to make Scout and Pulse Rifles effective.

  • It's pretty easy with Fatebringer, incredibly easy with any scout with firefly for the abyss, much more preferable to an auto. NF's typically involve players hiding do damage far away with long range scouts.

  • You do realize you went from talking about the time it takes to line up shots with a Scout Rifle, to how it's easy to deal with hordes using Firefly, a fairly rare perk. My point stands. It's more difficult to land a head shot with a Scout Rifle in most of the situations you run into during PVE than it is with an AR. As for Hand Cannons, they are a bit easier to use if you've got a good one with the right perks.

  • Rare but that is all that is used, you don't see firefly on a Auto Rifle, (for good reason), but they've effectively ruined AR's for PVE.

  • You don't see Firefly on AR's because they don't need it to deal with large groups of enemies. It's fairly easy to deal with hordes as long as you have one that's suited for the task. Abyss Defiant, for example, works wonders in the Abyss because of it's high ROF and great stability. I can chainsaw through waves of Thrall without a problem. It's not so great at mid-range, but that's what low ROF, high impact AR's like Suros are for. You say they've ruined it. I've primarily used AR's, and they still work great for me.
