Remember that pathetic gun called the "Stranger's Rifle"? Well, anyone who has played much crucible since 1.1.1 went live knows pulse rifles got some love, and this one in particular will take you out like a "pre-nerfed Suros Regime" on crack!
I just want to highlight the obvious over-correction Bungie made when balancing the weapons in PVP. Don't get me wrong, I think Bungie is on the right track (however frustrating it is to endure) in their efforts to make more guns relevant, but I do believe that in this latest "adjustment" Bungie has inadvertently caused many other well-loved guns to become nearly obsolete.
Here's to hoping release 1.1.2 will bring pulse rifles back from the stratosphere, down to a comfortable cruising altitude.

Edited by Revan_Jager: 3/7/2015 8:54:31 AMHonestly I'm comfortable with any weapon class in the game hand cannons too shotguns pulse rifles too snipers it doesn't matter how they change the game in my opinion whatever they buff I'll just switch to that class and continue to annihilate in PvP I really think people focus too much on whats op instead of being flexible and being able to use more than one type of gun I know people who once they got the vex only use the VEX in PvP never used anything else same thing with the last word and the invective learn to use other guns people in any game you play there will always be one or two guns maybe a class that is more powerful than another learn use them or continue to be killed by them and have a bad time its up to you personally I prefer to go with the flow and have a good time and get a bunch of kills but that's just me
