Not to hate on your post or anything, but I have to disagree. As stated by many others, you did lump together all the gunslinger perks as if they're all used at the same time. Then again, this isn't about the potency of gunslinger. This is about the Achylophage symbiote. Yes, there are some perks that can increase its effectiveness but, circle of life and keyhole aren't those perks. I for one, used the Achylophage because I found myself frequently missing GG shots, although popular opinion seems to think it impossible. With the shortened duration, it's as if even when I miss, I can't make it up because GG usually evaporates after the third shot. It [b]seems[/b] as if you assumed that Achylophage was the most used gunslinger exotic, I'm inclined to disagree. I myself alternated between it and knucklehead radar. [spoiler]Tl;dr Achylophage deserved the nerf about as much as sunbreaker's cauterize and blast radius did.....so not at all.[/spoiler]
