I'm sure that there will still be a meta/nerf cycle in D2 till no-one is playing PvP.
All I could see in the reveal was nerfs. Dawn sword thing will be nerfed to hell and back

As far as weapons go, I don't see where or what they would nerf. Overall ttk's feel about even across the board if they're used in their intended ranges. The only one I could see getting a little range nerf would be the handcannon since it seemed like it was outplaying most primaries in the mid-range from what I could tell. As far as abilities, I agree Dawnblade will almost certainly see a nerf. It seemed to last forever compared to the new Striker Titan and especially the Golden Gun, which seemed to only last about 5 seconds for 6 shots.

From past experience, it really don't matter if it needs it, It will get nerfed anyways. From where we started in Desinty 1 and where we wound up in terms of power. Guardians have been becoming less powerful. I'm staying away from the rats nest that is crucible if I do decide to get the game. I just wonder how they will screw over the pvE player from said nerfs

I'm hopeful but I think they pretty much have primary gunplay where they want it to be. I think if they nerf things it'll be subclasses, their abilities, and maybe an exotic here and there.
