I don't hear a lot about pulse rifles, Besides Red Death.
In my experience, it's the most awkward weapon to be consistently good with.
We always hear about autos, hand cannons and scout rifles, but not too much talk about pulse rifles.
Am I sensing a trend? Is it just me?

Been a long time coming. The upcoming weapons patch, along with Bungie's stats clearly show that pulse rifles are the least favourite weapon and also most underpowered.
I've been kicking ass the oversoul edict. It's actually one of the exceptions. With the buff, this gun will rule the crucible and arc burn nightfalls

I have 2 bad seed downs and a super pov vlo. Not feeling bad seed, although they have good perks. One has full auto, the other has headseeker. I wish i had one with both.

My issue is the damage seems lower than scouy rifles overall, and missing with a pulse is more punishing than with a scout.
Scout rifles seem better than pulse rifles in every way.

if you know how to use them, Pulse Rifles can actually be very deadly and consistent at most Ranges. I personally own a Strange Suspect maxed out and it is excellent. next to no recoil, impeccable accuracy, and gets headshots every time. Red Death is arguably the best, with it's kill activated health regen, and some people still give the Bad Juju a chance, despite it's flaws. there are plenty of legendary Pulse rifles that are hidden gems, waiting to be given a chance. come on pulse users, make yourself known!
