Edited by ironcitysteelers: 9/13/2015 10:54:12 PM2.0 has brought multiple weapons type as options, more over it brought multiple options within each of those groups. Never before have I see this. Some say pulse is the king now in pvp. Maybe they are correct at the moment, but the best thing it's multiple weapons not just one or two. Bad juju, red death, strangers rifle, 5a1 or whatever it's called, and of course the messenger. That said, HC are still doing work. They are not clearly the op weapon they were before but certainly useable in the right hands. Autos are good too. Suros 1.0 is ehh, but give me my vanquisher or other HROF legendary and good to go. The scouts have been crushing me too. You name the weapon it's done the job. Let's not forget the vex is burning people's asses again too. So for me, there are many options going into pvp unlike before. ....the best part. The next op weapon is still yet to come.
