Gjallorhorn is NOT and has not every been the best rocket launcher in the game for all uses!!!

Gjallorhorn is virtually useless when trying to kill Atheon unless you want to risk taking damage and dying during the fight - I know there are those who use it for Atheon Hard but I am not one of them. Gjallorhorn is terrible for Public Events on the Moon - due to small blast radius. Gjallorhorn is terrible for some POE encounters due to the way rockets proximity explode due to being killed by the architects rather than proximity to enemies. I know this is a game defect but still it sux to die for this reason. Gjallorhorn works best for Nightfalls and Strikes but not for POE or PVP - I know some love to use their Gjallorhorn for PVP but let's face it there are better choices for PVP simply due to blast radius alone. I have no issues with the upcoming Gjallorhorn nerf because Gjallorhorn fires and reloads faster than every other rocker launcher. I am ok with a reduction in Wolf Pack damage so long as Gjallorhorn remains an exotic but let's face it there are many better choices for some engagements than the current Gjallorhorn. I am not even sure the Gjallorhorn should even be called an exotic weapon now simply because it has such a small blast radius. There was a time when the Gjallorhorn was a true exotic but only because there were no other launchers with the same fire and reload rates but this is not the case any longer. I think Bungie should rework the Gjallorhorn to make it back into an exotic by making the following changes: 1. Fire 2 Gjallorhorn rockets at the same time with reduced Wolf Pack damage based on pre-nerf damage values. 2. Reduce the fire and reload rates by 50%. These changes would increase the damage output and elevate the Gjallorhorn back into exotic status without making it too OP but let's face it an exotic weapon has to be OP in order to be exotic otherwise it's just taking up space in our vaults.

    • For Atheon you just stand inside the relic bubble, stand in front of the relic holder to not blow yourself up. And spam him down. myself and a group of friends killed Atheon in less the one teleport with 3 gallys. We just killed oracles and stood in the alternate timeline while 3 people burnt him so yes it is the strongest rocket.

    • You are terribly wrong if you think gally isn't good for PoE. I agree is not best for every situation, but it is good in PoE.

        • No question its the best rocket launcher. And I'm sorry for people that don't have , but now so many people have cried about it and now it's being nerfed what a bunch of cry babies.

        • Exotic doesn't mean twice as good as a legendary weapon. You don't like Gjallarhorn because it is exotic. You like it because it was overpowered.

            • I hope this is a troll. Because "Gjallarhorn is useless in Event/PoE" is one of the dumbest things I have read on this forum.

                    You sir, are doing it wrong. You have 18k kills with the the galla and yet, thru all of those kills, u can't see its usefulness in defeating Atheon? Nobody can really take this post or draft serious dude.

                      • Yea gjallorhorn is for scrubs and only scrubs need a ghollarhorn crutch for fieghting enimies in destiny. If you cannot down atheon in under 9 seconds without a ghalarhon then you need to find the closet object par to a large cucumber within a square quarter mile of yourself and gently but ever so forcefully insert it into your rectum without saying a word.

                        [quote]Gjallorhorn is virtually useless when trying to kill Atheon unless you want to risk taking damage and dying during the fight.[/quote] Stopped reading after this and checked to see if satire tag was there - it wasn't. 6 Gjallarhorns can down Atheon in one T'sV. If you all don't have it then BH him and jump out at 4 seconds remaining, fire two rockets, repeat.

                            Lmfao, yet you have 18,000 GHORN kills, what a hypocrite, don't even deny that you don't use your GHORN in all PvE encounters.

                            Then what rocket launcher do you use for Atheon? Why are you doing public events on the moon? You can jump when shooting rockets in poe? Wolfpack rounds work in Pvp so that will kill also

                          • You could've added on to the Gjallarhorn Wolf Pack Rounds debuff too y'know? If you did already and I've read over it without noticing, then i sincerely apologise for doing so.
