Fighting Lion Doesn't need to be nerfed.
With the recent pvp changes, Fighting lion is to receive a 20% nerf to its damage, making it unable to kill with 2 close hits. This is isn't necessary as the gun already has a damage falloff depending on how close it explodes and it has a huge skill curve to use. Most players can't use the gun effectively and it's hardly used even now. I understand they thought it would be used due to the special ammo changes but even still it works fine as it is now, it's not op and it still takes skill to use right, even with perfect timing it takes 2 nades to kill and has slow reload. The max damage it does at point blank is 138, and 42 to 68 at farther ranges, this 20% nerf would make it very inconvenient to use and these damage numbers are fine where they are, if the change goes through it would take 3 nades to kill by itself which is just sad. And because it's already hard to use most players wouldn't consider using it over other primary exotics. This nerf is stupid and not needed.

It's just annoying to most players, and there's absolutely no skill to spamming that thing. Leave it in... I don't care. It's easy to counter.

Its a weak primary with low TTK values, it was only good in skilled hands, the skill gap was quite large. Someone will still use it.

5 RepliesFighting lion been easy to use ever since the primary ammo changes. Not gamebreaking broken but in a good players hands its super annoying to play against

The whole pvp update is just stupid in general.

1 ReplyFiguring Lion could use a buff. It should be fully returned to its best state in PvE. Why does the game have to suffer to coddle its awful PvP?
-
Oh right, that gun is in the game! Have not used it in years(pve)
-
You're using it to kill people? Most people are swaping to a HC after the 1st hit to clean up fast. That's why it's getting nerfed.

I love how you're desperately trying to validate your opinion of it being fine and not annoying to play against as YOU'RE USING IT on your Hunter... Yeah totally not a FL main
-
3 RepliesInfinite ammo special weapon in a world where you have to earn special ammo...? Yeah. Nothing potentially broken there.
-
2 Repliesthey're nerfing it because specials are going to be hurt massively. so they're preempting the alternatives also.
-
Imo it's not even that good it's just annoying because the people who use it always just spam pre-fire every angle so you can't take any fights.
-
Yeah unnecessary ! When I’ve played pvp and hear fighting lion it’s fun and games ….same as jotunn and witherhoard …..fun to use and makes it interesting.
