The Doctrine is too good for a legendary. The ease of use is just insane. It's usage in trials has blown passed TLW, and probably going to surpass MIDA this week as well.
The combination of stability RoF and magazine size is too good for a legendary and can't be countered reliably by anything, especially when a team of three all has them.
It's turning into the new Thorn, and the only thing needed to prevent that is simply removing either persistence or braced frame.

I'm glad to say that bungie is doing what I believed they wouldn't, and buffed other autos instead. The damage nerf to high rof autod will be altogether irrelevant, and autos will be in a really great place, while preserving the integrity of the DoP. Hopefully Suros will be able to to outgun DoP now, and overtake it as the most versatile. All said and done, they made good adjustments.

I laughed at your post, is any weapons pointed at you and fired first avoidable ? seriously now ! let alone 3 people firing at you lmao
-
Smalbore > brace frame

Edited by D0CT0RJK: 4/6/2016 4:54:16 PMMine has persistence, braced frame and hidden hand. I feel dirty using it. Still infused it up to 320 though :)
-
I'm stoked. I used SUROS Regime a lot, and although I fell in love with Doctorine & Arminius D, I'm looking forward to using SUROS again.
-
Well the weapon tuning has been announce and it's not happening, it is getting a slight reduction of base damage! Get used to getting wrecked by it!
-
Bump for edit.
-
The perks simply work perfectly together. No downsides.
-
Okay take my braced frame. I use small bore for that extra range
-
Just counterbalance maybe. It's good even without it
-
Edited by Sawk monkey: 4/6/2016 5:35:59 PMI use doctrine Guys its broken, the range stat is such a lie
-
Another xbox player trying to get stuff nerfed...
-
Stfu! So tired of bitches calling for nerfs gtfo of these forums

Edited by Combo164: 4/6/2016 5:22:44 PMPfft the new thorn? Exaggerating much? Anyways, a bullet hose finally being useful and people want it nerfed.....
-
any 1 with skill using a last word can easily outgun a doctrine is this a joke. if i land every shot with tlw i dont even come close to dying by a doctrine. Doctrine is easier to use than tlw but tlw kills faster which is why more people use doctrine.
-
It's awesome. Mines has rangefinder as well. Love it.
-
I wish I had it
-
I think you need your balls removed. Ah, wait..they're gone. Good call.
-
Lol I only use doctrine when my accuracy is off
-
Wait a trials weapon being used in trials, this is an outrage what was bungie thinking making a good auto for the competitive community.
-
Do it then my arminus will be Unbeatable
-
I think the only thing it needs is a shorter range stat. It becomes harder to aim over range and the DPS slows too, which would balance it out.
-
Nah it's fine. Just more easily obtainable than TLW, which is just as bad or possibly even worse than DoP. The other weapons in its archetype can compete with it. You're just blaming the name you see most.
-
Yeah remove persistence, i mean it's a hip fire perk and i usually ADS anyways. I hope they exchange it for something more useful like firefly or even crowd control/third eye.
-
I agree DOP is ridiculously OP
-
Go play division. Nerf the whiners.
-
But you're using it on your Stormcaller...
