The mission to get the black spindle is a challenge and it was worth all the effort when it dropped at 310 but now it drops at 290 with the same difficulty to get it. I think that it should be a bit easier for the attack that it is dropped. For instance a way the mission can be balanced is less enemies (or blights) or add more/remove time all together.

[spoiler]and while on the topic of black spindle i think since it is an exotic black hammer and the black hammer's white nail perk was nerfed that it would make it fitting if the exotic version had the original pre-nerf ability.[/spoiler]
but this is all just my opinion and most of my friends agree.
EDIT: B8 is as taken as Oryx

Assuming you don't have it, the gun is actually really good; even without the pre-nerf white nail perk. In PvE, special ammo isn't all that hard to find honestly, and the mission to get it wasn't even that hard (with a team of 300+ guardians).
