Seriously, I'm starting to get Felwinter Lie flashbacks, and I sure as S### ain't enjoying them, I'm fine with everything else about the gun (hell I have a good roll myself) but I seriously shouldn't be seen some of the cross maps that I am, I'm not saying nerf the range hard, just bring it back a by a meter or 2 to feel more inline with other Fusions

The problem with asking for a nerf on Erentil is that it will be applied to all High Impact Fusions, rather than just a singular weapon. They all share similar pools for perks, stat arrangements, and so on. They won't hit just Erentil, they'll hit all HIF at the same time. Unlike pinnacle weapons which are special snowflakes of the weapon world, hence why we don't get them anymore, they don't really differentiate the good, the bad and the ugly in other legendaries. The meta needs to be switched up, for sure, but a nerf isn't how it should be done. They could easily fix other things wrong first, like Resilience being the worst stat in the game. There are plenty of people shouting to the mountains about how Fusions and Shotguns are 'broken' but at the start of D2 they were complaining about them being Heavy weapons. Bungie and the playerbase can't win for losing when it comes to everyone complaining about something. We have two insta-kill single shot fusions, which are exotic and I agree with. A few insta-kill grenade launchers which I'm alright with. It essentially requires a god-roll, or a perfect set of perks and gear options to optimize Erentil; learn the pattern, adapt, and over come. If gorilla tactics don't work, go long range; if you're not hearing the rev up, tune your speakers; or join the crowd and be the person people send hate-mail too. Nerfing is not always the answer, I've never used Erentil that I recall (mainly I'm not fond of Fusions) but I don't want it nerfed because its one domino and if it falls the next one has to go. Its the same thing as all the people blaming various dog breeds instead of the owner: leave the dog alone, its not its fault.
