Now then,recently there has been a patch adding a buff to shotguns in PVE and a buff to Pulse Rifles in both PVP and PVE. However,this nerf has made the two weapon types TOO overpowered. They've also,as we know,nerfed Auto-Rifles. I think they've nerfed them too badly,though. These weapons need to be changed up a bit as currently,shotguns can take down a BOSS within a few full clusters in PVE,and Pulse Rifles are the new auto-rifles in PVP and PVE. The Pulse Rifles need a decent nerf in both PVP and PVE,the Auto-Rifles took too much of a nerf,and need to be changed so instead of them being nerfed by 9%,it should only be around 3-5%. Shotguns,on the other hand,need a heavy nerf in general,to both PVP and PVE. I think it should take 2 bursts of a shotgun to kill in PVP,and PVE they need a heavy nerf.

I did not realize the Bungie.net community was this harsh. Although,I do think that Auto-Rifles were too heavily nerfed.

No one is running up to a boss and shot gunning them on the regular

The weapon buff is nice. Pulse rifles are not OP. I've used pulse rifles from the beginning and I can say the changes are nice and the guns are much better, but nowhere near OP. Example would be red death. The gun always did work in pvp 2 bursts to the head 3 to the body. Nobody used it because it was all about ARs. The buff happens and people think it became this strong, when its always been that good. Shotguns are finally relevant in PVE. It never made much sense to use them over a fusion rifle. Now they are what they should've been, hard hitting close quarter weapons.

Edited by LONE RONIN2012: 3/5/2015 4:20:22 PMVanquisher and Suros still work in PvE. Stop crying and learn to use them. As for shotguns they are slightly better, the increased damage in PvE gives a small amount more range, but still need a slight bit more range in PvE.

How about no? Shotguns are finally worthwhile and a rewarding experience, and the fact that you have to be in that close range, you should be able to do a lot of damage. Pulse rifles needed a buff, they didn't have the damage needed to be worth equipping over a scout rifles or auto rifle
-
You do realize shotguns are extremely hard to use on bosses because of their near 0HKO attacks for close range? If you have to get that close to do monster damage, you deserve it. Also, why need Pulse Rifles? They're still grossly outclassed by auto rifles in PvE.

Stfu bitch

Hey it's balanced now ok so suck it up and die from red deaths:D
-
Yeah so basically undo what people asked them to do? You kids are never happy.
-
For crying out loud, are you people never satisfied!!!?
-
No - I finally get useful PR's. I have been waiting for this since the Red Death nerf last year. I can finally have fun with my weapon of choice, and you skrubs complain because you can no-longer cross map with AR's? Git gud

Why ask for pve nerfs you retard or something??? Fml #OPsadguy

-blam!-ing troll
-
are you retarded? lol
-
You're joking right?

Bro, LEAVE MY SHOTGUNS ALONE! Finally they have become the weapon they should! Two burst to take down enemies? Whaaaa... -blam!- outta here. I won't say that pulse rifles are overpowered either. Finally the weapon is useful...and the players that love pulse rifles can finally use them. Even as powerful as they are now, I still don't prefer those shitty weapons...but I will use the most effective for the playstyle. Sorry to disagree so much...but, I do think they were too harsh on Assault rifles. I could accept this patch if they peeled the damage reduction two half of what it is. It isn't right for me to empty half my mag with an Up For Anything to secure a kill...while I can never seem to survive three burst from any pulse rifle. The TTK on pulse rifles is TOO DAMN LOW. Add a burst to all of them #BUNGIE !!!
