As we know, fusion rifles are the least used special weapon type in Destiny. Fusion rifles were a very good, borderline OP weapon type until they were nerfed. Ever since then, the weapon has become obsolete, and useless, which is sad because it is such a cool concept to have an energy weapon. In the weapon rebalancing notes in Update 2.0, we all expected a significant buff, something that will stand a chance against shotguns, but we were hit with very little adjustments, and a slight nerf!? Suggesting a PVE oriented base damage buff to make them a legitimate option for AI ass-kicking.
Please help bring attention to a dying weapon type in Destiny.

Bump, I still use them but at a large disadvantage

I only use my fusion rifle for pve. Unless crucible bounties say otherwise. They are great in pve
-
Bump!!
-
Bump.Fusion rifle needed buffed
-
Bump for use in crucible.
-
I have been using fusion rifles in pvp recently, and have been doing quite well, it's not something I'm going to depend on though.
-
I think their fine the way they are! If Bungie buffs them people will go back and use a fusion rifle the whole game like they did before. You should not be able to one shot somebody from halfway across a map. Fusion rifles are fine the way they are and should not become a OP noob weapon.

Bump, bump, friggin bump

Edited by Zebra D. Luffy: 9/9/2015 11:34:58 PMLet the fusion rifles live again (it may be alright if they added precision damage to them?) Also bit more stability for Vex Mythoclast please! (Or am alone on that one?) Edit: & Please fix Poket Infinity if it ever makes a year 2 comeback, poor thing I keep forgetting about it

Mfw when I went on a fifteen kill streak with Plan C (it's still awesome)

632. End the oppression of fusion rifles

I still use light of the abyss in crucible sometimes, it's weak now but people don't expect it. Can't wait for a rebalance that actually makes them shine again.

You mean doctor Skolas is kell ambassador Skolas is here and would like plan c to be back again

I have to agree with you, fusion rifles need to be buffed in some way... Personally, I think Fusion Rifles should be re-imagined to be a weapon with a ttk in crucible rather than a hit/miss 1 shot since shotguns and snipers dominate that field. Maintaining it's charge theme, I would take it a bit further by making each piece of ammunition fire a sustained beam for a short duration that deals significant damage over that period, requiring players to charge again once that piece of ammo is used up (canceling the beam by letting go of trigger would use up the ammo too). This blast would be capable of killing someone in crucible quickly if you can keep your target for a fair portion of the duration, this determined by impact/charge time; slower-to-charge fusions killing a bit faster than the quicker chargers, excluding Plan C of course. Apply some balancing like giving the beam a travel time and I think this weapon would achieve it's goal of being the mid-range Special weapon. Vex Mythoclast and Queenbreaker's Bow would need to remain unchanged probably (though I think Vex needs to have the shot-spread nerf removed). The new exotic that shoots the sticky/explosive rounds would necessarily have to remain the way it is said to be, but since it's exotic that makes sense.
