Sidearms are obsolete now with TLW out
So sidearms have been a favorite of mine since D1. They are very effective at killing rushers. With the last word out though, it has a faster ttk, better hipfire, and more than twice the range of any sidearm in the game.
Could sidearms get an adjustment to be more competitive at some point? I get tlw is an exotic, but that just seems nuts to me one gun killed an entire archetype of weapon.

My Rat King would disagree!

The smugglers word is an absolute beast ?

37 отв.The last word is trash.

I'd be surprise if they have a D2 version of the trespasser sidearm to probably counter TLW
-
3 отв.I am honestly done at this point responding to these "sidearms suck" threads. Gonna make it as short as I can. Sidearms do not suck they just require skill unlike handcannons.

15 отв.Sidearms should never have more range than a hand cannon. That’s not what they’re designed for. And asking for them to receive more range would impact the actual hand cannon archetype, especially considering how stable more sidearms are and then you want them to have faster TTK? TLW functions as it should and from what I’m seeing it is functioning as it should. Just be glad it doesn’t have the range it had in Destiny.
-
D2 last word I can't stand I'd rather use a sidearm, they feel way more accurate
-
I mean... it IS an exotic...
-
To be fair im holding out on a base opinion regarding sidearms until we see the rat king catalyst. With a fireteam rocking RK's it can be a beast of a weapon and hopefully with some luck the buff will make it a viable option. well we can hope right? I mean it is a fun toy and honestly i love the aesthetic that said common sidearms need a SERIOUS buff...except the smugglers word, that thing is a glorious abomination of fun and DPS
-
3 отв.Nah I seen some person out right owning a crucible match with a side arm yesterday.
-
I would like SMGs buffed again too. Anything to counter shotguns. I get tired of running shotty...
-
"It's not META, therefore it's garbage."
-
2 отв.gonna have to say I would still rather use a sidearm in a lot of really close quarter situations.
-
Eh, the pulse ones still feel good imo. The semi auto ones are beyond trash tho.
-
sidearms should have never even been added to the franchise tbh
-
I personally want them to use special ammo and do more damage to compensate. Basically, make them like they were in D1. I loved them even before they were slightly meta.
-
pretty sure they’ve been obsolete for a few months now
-
This feels like a git gud scrub moment, but im not sure.
-
Yeah ngl, they’ve always just felt like a worse hand cannon to me. Except the Trespasser. I can’t even remember what made it special off the top of my head, but it was the only sidearm I ever liked somewhat
-
I always though sidearms were a stupid addition like sub machine guns.
-
3 отв.They were pretty obsolete in D1 too, so sounds like nothing much has changed there.
-
They need to become special weapons. Sidearms are the special weapons, and SMG's are the primary counters.
