Why did Bungie nerf Fusion Rifle damage by 20%?
[b]Watch the video[/b]. Damage per bolt reduced by 21% with this recent patch. With the added stability reduction fusion rifles have been made almost entirely obsolete.
This thread is not to troll. Seriously. [b]21% damage reduction[/b]. I went flawless in Trials with my Vortex when most people were using 1000-Yard Stare.
I made a thread about my love for the weapon when it was released, which trended with some praise that fusion rifles might be fun again: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/157441046/0/0/1
The weapon has been changed entirely. Entirely. I might as well breathe on someone at medium range. Meanwhile, The Last Word + 1000-Yard Stare returns as the meta. Thanks, Bungie. You never cease to amaze us.
EDIT: [b]For those of you telling me I can't aim, that I'm missing all the shots, etc:[/b] that's an entirely different discussion about the stability nerf. I'm not bad with fusion rifles. I main them. I know how to use them. [b]This topic is about the pre-patch 43 dmg per bolt getting nerfed to 34 dmg per bolt with the 2.1.0 patch.[/b]

I agree with your findings and consider them to be accurate. Also, we were promised more ADS accuracy and tighter coil groupings, but we got the opposite. Finally, the hipfire perk doesn't seem to work properly anymore, it almost seems as if the failed code they inserted to instigate the changes disabled it. I would like to say that I think Bungie can do better than this, but I am not so sure now.

They probably meant to nerf it by 2.1% but screwed that up too just like the auto rifles which was apparently a "typo"... Pffftttt yeah right.

Who even used Fusion rifles, so it's not overused. Hardly overpowered either.

Its because bungievision is mad that fusions challenge their shotgun range

Because Bungie has no idea what they're doing.

It's because they don't want you to use anything but a sniper, they ruined shotguns well and truly and now fusions are even worse than they already were

1 ReplyEdited by yipikiya: 12/14/2015 4:45:05 PMIts funny but I thought games were for the consumer to play how they want with what there given. Bungie keeps changing all aspects to make us do what they want us to do. Im down to just two frickin primaries I care to use in PVE and just snipers for secondary. Heavy will always be rockets so not complaining their. Fusions use to be my go to mainly but since this recent adjustment I agree OP, they don't want us using them anymore. I like variety sometimes but that's out the window now.

This shit is ridiculous. I was a heavy user of fusion rifles in pve before this update. Rolled in to hipfire starting at the chest like I always do, end up six stories high after shooting now. Ads in, and it's just as bad! WTF. The hipfire was perfect before. Absolutely perfect. Made the guns a hidden gem in pve. Just can't even use it now.
