When you run across the map with no cover ANY scout rifle and most ranged pulse rifles will mow you down. The Time To Kill is actually long compared to The Last Word and some others. So the problem is not the gun being OP the problem is the players. The reason you see it more? Xur sold it and most year 1 players had it so got their y2 when it dropped. Speed and agility in PvP is crucial MIDA helps that. So quit complaining it's not the gun...change your style. Use cover, learn the maps, it will get better I promise.

It's not that it is OP.....kind of. It's the screwed up way that Bungie 'balances' weapons that make certain guns after each patch 'OP'.....which then leads to them being nerfed....and a new gun rises to the top....and the cycle continues. Meanwhile....the vast majority of weapons are rendered useless in both PvP and PvE. It's 'Forced Diversification". Bungie creates the meta (I have come to hate that F'ing word)....we are forced to play it and bitch on the forums about it.
