[quote]Claim what you want but my point stands and that's what every person that gets on here complaining about weapons and things of that nature fail to realize.[/quote] Hey, if you disagree with me, that's understandable. Although my point is exactly that: everyone is complaining because they share the same mentality. That mentality then feeds the "meta." [quote]I don't consider myself a meta chaser but I'm not going to simply lay down and get shredded because I want to be stubborn and use what I like rather than use what works. Get it? What works.[/quote] More to my point, bud. Have you ever played TCGs? I used to play Cardfight Vanguard and that was exactly the same mentality. The point is: what will always work is tactics. When that fails, then Bungie will buff/nerf. I'm fully confident we're not there yet. I'd like for you to keep a very common phrase in mind: if you can't beat them, join them. Keep it in mind because that is the central ideology of Destiny's meta. Cardfight Vanguard's meta. Any meta in any game that exists. My point is not that you're a meta chaser, it's that you can't beat the meta, so you join it. You can't beat it not because you're a bad player, but because you insist that the meta is some indelible facet of the game. If you learn the tactics to outmaneuver these meta choices, then you'll be free to play whatever works for you. Which takes work, but again, that's what separates good players from great players. You have to decide for yourself which you want to be. [quote]To add to that a little, many of the weapons work if used properly. Close range weapons work well against weapons that aren't close range and so on. IMO it's not Mida that's the true op weapon at the moment. It's the last word. Same when everyone complained about thorn. Thorn was manageable, the last word was the real problem.[/quote] The Last Word is fine. I have yet to be killed by the gun where it wasn't my fault. And by that I mean I inadvertently played into the gun's strengths. Get the gun, or use it if you have it. Learn where you need your opponent to maximize the gun's effectiveness. Then, when you're playing against it, *don't go there.* Which may sound like an obvious answer, but it's the deceptively simple things that prove to be the hardest to accomplish.
