Why is Bad Juju suddenly good?
I may be revealing my Destiny old-age here, but why is Bad Juju suddenly viewed as a good gun? Are ppl using it for something really specific, or did they change perks on the Y2 model to make it better?

4 commentairesHas the recoil changed somehow from pre ttk? I'm finding it unbearable, could just be in my head but it feels different to shoot.

They buffed pulse rifle damage in general a while ago and it's got so much range with send it you can fight at just about any range closer than extreme scout rifle ranges which is really only available in combined arms. On the normal rotation maps it is useful everywhere.

1 commentaireIt's been awesome since the 1.1.1 update. They added a "recharge super energy faster per kill" on top of the "instantly refill ammo" perk, gave it more ammo... and around that time 1.1.1 gave Pulse Rifles a flat 10% damage increase. The increase coupled with the Pulse Rifles' 1.5% damage modifier on Critical Hits resulted in an even higher damage output in skilled hands.

1 commentaireBad Juju hasn't changed, the other weapons just aren't as good. Red death used to outclass it but since aggressive ballistics was nerfed the TTK's are now comparable and with no weapons 2 shotting in the same way that Thorn did or TLW ripping you apart with bodyshots it's now a safe weapon to use.
-
The juju had always been good. However now that pulse rifles are the meta it now had the ability to out performs all other weapon types
-
What's better? Juju or NTTE?
-
No, pulse rifles got buffed. Thus, Bad Juju is good.
-
Bad Juju has been part of the meta for a cool minute now. Way back to one of their first weapon updates that put pulse rifles as serious competitors in crucible, the exotic part of that update buffed the Juju too. It lit people up longer than thorn or tlw were big deals. The y2 version is identical, nothing new but a pretty Covenant purple paintjob.
-
It's been amazing since the pulse rifle buff that happened after TDB
-
Nothing to see here move on.
-
Its been good. I loved it in year one as much as I do now.
-
Because pulse rifles got a bump. It's rate of fire and perks are what solidify it as a great option. In crucible it out shoots red death which I saw a lot of in iron banner
-
Bad juju has been good since it was changed a long time ago back in vanilla days.
-
Because enough people wanted it to end existence, so it may now oblige.
-
The changes to pulse rifles and its original change to string of curses makes it excellent.
-
They fixed Pulse Rifles on the old balance curve and.... well.. unlimited ammo against adds + quick super build up
-
Since you main a warlock, you can try the bad juju and obsidian mind combo with voidwalker using bloom and soul rip. You can get supers every 20 seconds in some situations such as the first room during omnighul. It's a very powerful combination of you run voidwalker.
-
It's always been good. What your seeing is called "Buff by proxy". Bungie didn't do anything to make the weapon itself better, but they did nerf some of the other high TTK weapons and took HandCannons off their pedestal as PVP gods, as well as giving pulse rifles a slight boost overall. This has lead to the comparative strength of weapons like Bad Juju being increased even though they haven't been touched.
-
It's not "suddenly good" It's always been good. The problem was hand cannons would out-range it. Since they corrected that the Juju works now. It's always done 27 Precision damage. It's always been good.
-
It was always useful in PvE, but the pulse rifle buffs along with various nerfs to other weapon types finally made it viable.
-
Well, as a filthy casual, Juju was my first exotic. Loved it since I got it. It chews through red bars like fat kids chew through hamburgers. Absolute beast in PvP, which is why there has been "Red Death vs Juju" comparisons since it got a buff. Obviously Red Death has better perks for PvP, but full auto and no kick keep Juju up on more or less the same level. Can't go wrong with the Juju.
-
3 commentairesWell, y'all have convinced me to give Juju a third try. I'll revive it instead of my trusty Red Death. Still a little worried about killing yellow-bar enemies at range, but we'll see how it does.
-
What's this "suddenly" nonsense? BJJ has been awesome for a really long time, and yes, that included PvP.
-
They made other newer guns comparatively shitty.
-
Don't rush and hang back, let the cannon fodder soften up the opposition and you wipe up them up. Works like charm. It depends on your style man, that's what used to work for me during IB.
-
It's been good since the mag buff. There were just other weapons and nobody wanted to use bad juju
