Re-Buff Auto Rifles Completely! Poll.
So, understandably Bungie nerfed Auto Rifles as the statistics proved they were the most over-used weapons in almost every activity. Now that they've castrated and killed Auto Rifles completley and buffed Pulse Rifles to top-tier and Hand Cannons to the most over-used genre of weapon, they might as well restore ARs to their former glory to compete with the newly buffed and overused Hand Cannons. If they re-buff ARs, will you not use Thorn anymore?
TLW: 2 Hipfire = Kill.
Thorn: 2 Headshot = Kill.
Red Death: 2 Headshot = Kill.
Scout Rifle: 3 Headshot = Kill. ( G-Demise )
Auto Rifles cannot compete with any of these weapons at close range.
If two players that were both pros shot at eachother with perfect aim from the same distance, all of the weapons I just mentioned would clearly win. Unless you get the first shot, no.
The first 3-10 shots in, you will lose any gunfight with an Auto Rifle against a skilled player.
EDIT: Bungie finally gave in. Not only are Thorn and the Last Word receiving a due nerf, but Auto Rifles are receiving the exact buff we decided on ( Or mostly )
To restore Auto Rifles to their prime damage but to keep the range nerfs in place to limit Auto Rifles to close-mid range encounters like Thorn and Last Word were originally intended to be.
Thank you all for consistently bumping this forum and I'm gladly looking forward to the Auto Rifle buff.

Please I have 80 plus days played on Destiny.....PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF DESTINY REBUFF AUTO RIFLES PLZZZZZZZ.....with Motes of Light on Top

3 RepliesI picked 2 but this is not correct. ARs were out of balance just looking at the class. The low ROF ARs vastly outclassed the other types. The the mid ROF ARs outclassed the high ROF ones. The nerf was needed to address this. Now, ARs in total are out of balance with other primaries. So a buff the is nneded.

1 ReplyI think they should increase damage but keep range nerfs in place.

1 ReplyI'll say this. I'm in love with my The Last Word and I will choose it over any primary every single day. So please Bungie, PLEASE do not F*** with my gun. If you want to even things out and make other guns more powerful then go on ahead, but don't touch my pistol. It is love. It is life.

3 RepliesWouldn't say the high impact auto rifles should be buffed "completely" back to their prior state, just slightly upgraded and rebuff the mid impact/low impact autorifles

1 Replynot necessarily back to what they originally were but could definitely use a good buff, they aren't even a legit option at this point

4 RepliesHand cannons are in a good place. Pulse rifles are finally in a good place. Scout rifles are in a good place. Auto rifles have been beaten mercilessly with the nerfbat. They need to be brought back to their former glory. Bring back the damage they did but keep the range nerfs.

1 ReplyI challenge anyone to an auto rifle buff debate! Im for a buff. If you are against one, I will tear your arguments into the 9th dimension.
