As someone that doesn't have a ton of time to game, it sucks seeing Starfire get nerfed. I got back into destiny with Lightfall to start playing with some of my friends again. I feel off during Beyond Light because I'm a Warlock and I wasn't able to contribute DPS on raids or run content solo due to low DPS output. When I got back in I decided to find a great solo build so that I can do stuff solo. My friends have been running a 3 man fireteam for years, so I'm not able to run a lot of content because of that. I spent so many hours grinding just to get a great Starfire build. Since then I've been able to run stuff I never have before. and I'm able to actually have fun during raids.
I don't really understand the nerf to the grave logic. Especially since, from my experience Starfire mostly excells in PVE content. It's not like I'm playing against other people and have a crazy advantage over them. The game finally feels fun for me and has opened up way more with me being able to do content I never could.
With this nerf I kinda just feel defeated and that I've wasted what little time I have in a build that just won't have that same impact. I know I can always chase another build, but honestly, it just doesn't feel worth it. I don't wanna invest that same kind of time and energy just for Bungie to come along and kill that off as well.

No more infinite healing I guess. Otherwise, if you want a backup, Phoenix Protocol is always a plus. It sounds simple, but having a Well at almost every encounter is pretty awesome.
