We need Honest weapon stats (w/ example)

OK so you may all know by now but the weapon stats are garbage. Sure if one weapon has more impact it will be doing more damage but by how much? You have to see for yourself. That tiny bit more on the bar may mean a significant addition to your damage, or next to nothing. That tiny little addition may mean nothing at all, or it could mean huge numbers getting added on. Nothing is proportional. The worst I have seen so far has to be with Auto Rifles. So much misinformation comes from how people look at these weapon stats. So I took one of each of the 3 types of AR and in photoshop edited their stats to show how they actually relate to each other in terms of RoF and Impact Here is the image: http://imgur.com/dApPikk For RoF I used the 100 RoF as the baseline. 77 RoF fires at half the speed of the 100 so that got changes from 77--->50. RPM/Original Stat/New Stat 450RPM / 77 RoF / 50 RoF (corrected) 600RPM / 88 RoF / 75 RoF (corrected) 900RPM / 100 RoF / 100 RoF (corrected) With damage the old 28 impact had a value pretty close to its critical damage in PvP so I based the impact values of each gun on their criticals in PvP to show relation. In honesty Impact should probably be the critical damage value divided by 2. Most guardians will average 200 HP so the impact bar could give you an idea how much of the health bar you critical shot will take off per bullet. But I wanted to keep this simpler and show something relative to current impact stats. Ether way, damage was grossly misrepresented by impact shown, here is the corrected values that lets you see the relationship between the gun types. Critical Damage/Original Stat/New Stat 23-dmg / 28 Impact / 23 Impact (corrected) 19-dmg / 8 Impact / 19 impact (corrected) 13-dmg / 2 Impact / 13 impact (corrected) I know ARs aren't the only ones but this is ridiculous Bungie how badly your showing the 100 and 88 RoF ARs compared to how they actually are, and you are making High Impact ARs look much much better then they actually are.
