My reaction was as follows:
Thorn. No one cares.
Universal Remote. Finally.
Touch of Malice. Doesn't matter.
Sniper Rifles. Assuming they add a legendary sniper in Y3 with the same impact as Black Spindle / Efrideet's Speer, this is actually a good decision. If they don't, then it is a very bad decision. I am 50/50.
Everything else was good, except for the Queen's Choice. That gun did not need a nerf, but oh well.

Yeah, that's true about the QC. Higher damage seemed like a good tradeoff for it not being hitscan but there's like 100 new sidearms coming so it might be related to something that's coming. Not sure.

5% damage reduction due to it being a "non hit scan" weapon.

Literally the only thing I was disappointed about. If they don't add a higher impact sniper rifle, that will be the biggest disappointment.

Non hitscan has to deal with travel time... Why would they nerf that? Or am I missing something? Efrideets spear was my go to for both PvE/pvp. I miss high impact snipes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitscan Non-hit-scan weapons seem like they would be at a disadvantage, so this nerf doesn't make sense. Seems like it deserves a post to raise awareness and pose the question of "what the heck, Bungie???" Because, as far as I am concerned, The Queen's Choise is the real casualty, here... Unless they don't reintroduce the Efrideet's Speer, then sniper rifles will be the second.
