That was a nerf across the whole spectrum of HCs IIRC. So every HC will get the same nerf. So Fatebringer will still be the best HC in PvE by a long mile. So it should be nerfed according to Bungie logic.

There will always be stuff that beats others of its class, and I believe those should come from the hardest content, endgame PvE/PvP Fatebringer does. Hard Templar is one of the hardest encounters in the entire game, especially when we were forever 29

Okay I definitely agree with you there. But the nerf to Black Hammer makes it obsolete. Useless is a bit harsh but it will be much worse than a good roll on a Spear/Benevolence or any other new legendary sniper that comes out in TTK. So what's the difference between Black Hammer and Fatebringer? Both are exclusive legendaries of raids, both were pretty hard to obtain when it first came out. Why the exclusive treatment to Black Hammer?

It has a special perk, FB doesn't; that's all I can think of. I disagree with the nerf, but I understand why it was done. Also, I will never use a Spear in PvE over BH. Even post nerf. It's just to precious to me.
