Seriously!?!? Did they even play test Breakneck before rolling out the changes to it. They nerfed both of it’s traits to the point where it is outputting less damage than a 600rpm Arc Logic auto rifle.
We had to suffer through 40 matches of Gambit to be the thing and now it’s borderline useless.

The fact breakneck got nerfed makes me want to breakmyneck
-
it's horrid. it shoots faster and completely wastes ammo, while not even gaining any damage. onslaught pretty much dumps and wastes ammo when you activate it
-
It literally shoots cheese puffs now. I can kill a dreg if I use 4 clips!
-
Nerfed the shit out of breakneck, a pve weapon from a pve activity, which nobody had a problem with. Barely touched recluse or mountaintop, pve dominating weapons from pvp only activities, which Luke smith admitted broke the game. Bungie logic at its finest.

Try Pluperfect, it’s like Tigerspite but better.

Edited by Dark Warrior: 10/16/2019 3:36:52 AMI used to use the weaps in this order as primary Auto-rifle "Cuboid Aru" > "Hazard of the Cast" > "Breakneck" What to do now? "Recluse"? It's an energy-SMG no kinetic Auto-rifle. If i wanted an energy-Auto-rifle i'd use my "Hard Light" and wouldn't even have to care about the elemental ads. So what's my alternative now? Somehow i think, the catalysted "Huckleberry" might be, but it's an Exotic and SMG, won't suit in any case this way. Someone mentioned "Monte Carlo", which i only know as a location...is it a kinetic non-Exotic-Auto-rifle, since we talked about "replacement"?!

The rifle barely sees much use now due to the current meta, yet Bungie decides to further hobble their first pinnacle weapon. Does anyone else feel like they got bait and switched by Bungie? Neither Breakneck nor Redrix deserved these changes. EDIT: Good summary here -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fstuXODLBmw

What's a good AR to use now then?
-
Breakneck needs about double the size of the magazine to make up for the massive nerf it got hit with.
-
They had to nerf it, it was way too OP, everyday the forums were full of nerf breakneck posts and it was getting out of hand... smfh :)

[quote]Breakneck Has Always Been Terrible[/quote] Fixed the title.

It was already terrible to me. Its the pinnacle weapon i almodt never used. This and delirium.
-
agreed Bungie has to buff this weapon asap and bring it back to life
-
That gun was always equipped as my kinetic. Then they had a go at it, now I'm rocking a Cuboid. Sad state of affairs...
-
But, but, but, it's activision, guys!

A full clip to take down a dreg.. or just punch it!
-
Breakneck was always terrible, i got it. dismantled it for shards and cores. Now, My Halfdan-D..... that.... THAT is something special.
-
Bump for bungie
-
Wait a minute, when was it good?
-
It was always garbage.
-
IT WAS ALWAYS TERRIBLE
-
So, it wasn't just my imagination.
-
It always sucked.
