Hopscotch Pilgrim replacement?
Hmm..... a surprised (targeted) nerf for Hopscotch Pilgrim in patch 2.0, and after trying for a few rounds in Crucible for a week, I can conclude that it is about time to bid farewell to this once amazing Pulse Rifle that I enjoyed so much and achieved my first IB rank 5.
Without any doubt, it lives up to its name as a legendary item.
So fellow guardians, if you are on the same boat as me, what is your PvP primary now?
And will you be hunting for a Hopscotch Pilgrim replacement in Year 2?
Edit: great feedback! Seems like there is still a lot of love for Hopscotch Pilgrim.
Other PR recommended:
Exotics: Bad Juju, Red death
Legendary: The messenger, Spare Change, 3 little words, 55A AllFate, Stranger's Rifle (upgraded as a purple in 2.0)

1 ReplyMessenger will not be going anywhere it looks like sadly. Thing is just as bad as Hopscotch pre-nerf. Just as forum overhyped. Hopscotch didn't deserve how it was treated.

1 ReplyEvergreen II.I with reactive reload.. Its a rare... And I will not be using it during IB or trials.. But for every day pub stomping it's my go to weapon.

1 ReplyI have a god roll Hopscotch, (OAS | Outlaw | Braced Frame | Rangefinder) Still have max stability and the range, oh the range. Yes, it's 3 head shot kill now, but depending on your roll, I'd say stick with it through next week. Also I have every other Pulse, Messenger included. If you're determined to leave the HP, try The Messenger if you have it, then Red Death. However, I find the Red Death hard to control coming from the HP. Bungie learned their lesson, there won't be a max stability weapon in TTK, IMO. If you play back, try MIDA.

And then that weapon gets balanced as well. I can't wait for all the tears :)

Still love my hopscotch. I'll occasionally use the mida also but I mostly stick with HP now.

2 RepliesHopscotch is still great, in fact i kinda prefer it now to what it was before.

2 RepliesLiterally just run strangers rifle. It's always been an animal. Has ridiculous aim assist, full auto. I use it religiously. When level advantages matter, I run all fate, true sight (might be red dot ores), feeding frenzy, braced frame, reactive reload. I do much better w it than red death or messenger (I need the higher rof as I find its much more foregiving).

By using it anyways because it is still a good gun.

AllFate = Love

Bad Juju new meta

1 ReplyA rancid puddle of tears that stink of longing and regret. Nothing can replace my Hopscotch.

3 Replies55A-ALLFATE Bought it from the vanguard vendor and rolled some pretty good perks on it, it's a monster

Bad juju/ messenger

2 RepliesMessenger... Bad Juju and Red Death are the tits too.

2 RepliesSpare change.25 with counterbalance and feeding frenzy, braced frame or skorris revenge with similar perks, skorris is still a laser beam.

2 RepliesBad juju is supposed to be awesome now I personally like the last word and strangers rifle but that's just me
