Primaries are useless

Nobody uses them anymore the only primaries people use anymore are 1. TLW and 2. UR and that isn't even a primary and 3. MIDA. It's just pathetic how shit primary weapons really are. They are practically useless. Ask the forums what to do about a shotgunner coming straight for you. Everyone just says use a fusion literally primaries have such a long time to kill that you will either trade or die from that little bitch shotgunner. Snipers literally every door I go around has one camping it, and this isn't a problem??? Seriously wtf. This IB you'd be lying if you said you didn't seen at least 5 shotgun rushers per game. I really wish we could go back to HOW days when primaries actually did something. Update? Don't know how this works I didn't mean to seem like a rant but primaries kill times are to slow compared to God roll shotguns and snipers with no flinch, and how people tell me to use 1 out of maybe 30 weapons they list, but every weapon and arch type should be good. Like grim citizen that arch type needs some work done to it. If your precise enough to land all head shots at mid to long range the shotty rusher will kill you. Oh and I'm on Xbox so telling me to use The Jade Rabbit isn't possible lmao.

        • I don't know.. I've killed by quite a few primaries WAY too fast like .02 seconds fast (almost instantly). Some primaries IMO kill too fast and honestly need to be brought down a couple notches.

        • Supercell served me well last iron banner. Was my primary all the way to lvl 5. Secondary and heavy changed but not my primary. Mostly used it for the chain lightning effect. I actually beat quite a few mida users with it by a nonexsistant sliver of health. Fyi i used solar armor and golden gun. I didnt throw everything into armor but was more balanced perks. Either way, theres some cheap kill primarys but thats because of bungies poor design. Another nail in the coffin.

          • I never liked pulse rifles but got an aegis of the reef with head seeker that I really like. It's mostly a three burst kill, pretty much use it all of the time now in pvp. Before taken King, hawkmoon was my go to, now it just doesn't feel right. Also on occasion will use a Monte Carlo or soul stealer with max stability. Def see a lot more UR and TLW will always be around as long as it can snipe you from the hip from across the map.

            • Primary weapons in Destiny's PvP are indeed useless for many players. I loose EVERY gunfight from any other primary, from any lightlevel. Why? Because my primary weapons don't do damage. Why? Because the most enemies see me at least 0.5 second earlier on their screens. So i'm always already damaged for 80% at the moment i see the enemy. This is because on their screens they were already shooting at me. My primary weapons are the biggest BULL***T!!!!

                  • I made this post months ago. It is ridiculous, and as it kills them so slow you get constant assists! Makes me angry. I have to admit though I do now use UR and sniper

                    • It looks like I get 42% of my Crucible kills on my main character with primaries, followed by 39% with abilities, 11% with heavy weapons and a mere 9% with specials (lol 101%). Haakon's Hatchet was my sole primary during this Iron Banner. But yes, some incentivized variety would be damn nice.

                            Most of my kills come from primary weapons. But agree they need a overall buff.

                            I am also not happy with the state of primaries. The power drain on all weapons and abilities in this game has made it bland and homogenized. Rather then celebrate unique differences we attack them.

                          • I DO despise the universal remote. I will add, thoug, I got myself a soul stealer claw with counterbalance and perfect balance and it is an absolute banger

                          • Tlw, hawksaw, mida, hawkmoon, eyasluna, lord highfixer, doctrine, grasp, pdx45, are all good primaries and i have no problem using any off them so maybe you just suck
