Lemme make this real simple: Bungie nerfs the Gjallerhorn because Raid groups were too stubborn about who can and can't join their games, basically who has Gjallerhorn and who doesn't.
The scummy part of this community goes, "Durr hurr, I'm gonna require Gjallerhorn even more now to teach Bungie a lesson!"
Bungie says, "It looks like Gjallerhorn is [i]still[/i] the go-to weapon for Raid groups, so we're gonna nerf it some more."
[b][i]REPEAT THIS CYCLE UNTIL YOU IDIOTS LEARN THAT BEING A JERK TO PEOPLE OVER A WEAPON IN A VIDEOGAME IS PATHETIC AND WRONG.[/i][/b]
But by all means, if you're so afraid to do endgame content without Gjallerhorn, be my guest, and get your precious rocket launcher nerfed into the ground.

I have never required a ghally or think it's necessary to complete anything, but from now on I will require a ghally for any activity. I don't care if it's iron banner, VoG normal, or PoE 32...no ghally, no group. All of you whiney kids who would rather whine about a weapon than grind for it are pathetic and now you will be completely excluded from everything. It's no longer about needing the weapon. It's now about spiting the complainers that got the weapon nerfed.
