    • The special weapons are almost all instant kills though. Shot guns for close range, fusion rifles for mid, and snipers for long. Each one will kill you in one hit usually. In fact, the only one that will almost always do it is the shotgun, if the fusion rifle misses a few of the shots then it wont kill you, and the sniper rifle wont kill with body shots in one hit.

        • What they really REALLY need to do is make maps bigger so closer quarter weapons don't rule the game.

            I find fusion rifles very annoying on the crucible, some of them can do more damage than a shotgun and with a higher fire rate But the one that is truly broken IMO is the Pocket Infinity. Low charge rate means nothing if you can pre-charge your weapon.

          • I don't want to associate my self with the nerf/buff crowd, and I fully understand that all the special weapons are meant to be 1-hit-kill style. All I want to say is that some of the charge times seem a little ridiculous considering the advantages.

          • Here is the problem with that. You see, a while back there was a coat hanger nerf in effect. And well, as a result the gene pool was contaminated when they couldn’t prevent the conception of whiny children like you. :-/

            • The only problem with fusion rifles is the spread. It seems that if using "Aim Down Sights" the projectile spread doesn't actually spread at all. So, you get one-shot-kills at much too far range. They just need to make it more of a cone-shaped, instead of a wide column-shaped one. This would also help it to be a more effective "room clearer" in PvE. Just one dude's opinion, of course.

              • The idea that fusion rifles in general need to be nerfed strikes is, in my opinion, misguided. for the majority of fusion rifles, the charge times and spread put you at a severe disadvantage. When considering that it also takes pretty much a full burst to kill (If you can even hit those pesky hunters) you could say that they are evenly balanced. You should also take note of your own condition. Were you injured? Were you outnumbered? Did you land the majority of your shots? The variables to be taken into account when considering weapon balancing and whether a weapon (or weapon type) is overpowered are vast in their multitude. On a different note, each weapon type will have it's own "super weapons" - weapons that have good stats mixed with amazing perk combos which make them highly effective. Every weapon type has these kind of weapons (i.e. Shadow Price [When from engram/drops], Thunderlord, etc.). A final thing to consider: nerfing isn't always the best answer. Continually decreasing the effectiveness of specific weapons/types will often result in other weapons being considered to be the new "best option" and thus results in a balancing problem. Destiny PvP shouldn't have a "best option", Bungie said it themselves, Hence the changes across all weapon types. If you were to change ONLY fusion rifles then who's to say that shotguns or auto rifles don't become the new go-to weapons again? - not intended in an entirely serious manner, just an example. Please Note: I did not post this to alienate or offend anyone in any way. I am NOT in any way a professional gamer, I do NOT consider myself an expert in any way - for all I know Destiny's mechanics work in magical ways which I may never understand. Opinions are not fact, and I have merely provided an opinion. Anyway, have fun out there folks!

                • The one thing Bungie could nerf to make the game really great for me is: nerfs.
