Gjallarhorn nerf and Whitherhoard nerf not necessary

You need to stop nerfing weapons based on usage data. How about making meaningful buffs to the exotics that are underused? You make these buffs to weapons that literally have no real impact and that is why your sandbox stays stale. You cant say oh ok this weapon is underused because the damage is not that good then say ok we are going to buff the weapon we gave it more aim assist lol wtf one has nothing to do with the other. Both of these nerfs were not needed here you go ruining the fun again.

  • Witherhoard is my all time favourite, and yeah it needed a nerf. With the catalyst you can have more than 100% up time on puddles while using other weapons, that's busted af. These forums never cease to be filled with toddlers having tantrums.

      • I’m glad Witherhoard is getting nerfed. It’s annoying in PvP and a crutch in pve lol

        • Ghorn will still be good and it's more of a support weapon. Witherhoard is deserved without ruining it in pve

        • That’s how they are now unfortunately. “[i]Hey Guardians, (Bungie Dev) here. We’ve noticed that you’ve been using (insert weapon/armor) quite a bit lately. You like using it? You think it’s useful? Well guess what? We’re gonna ruin it just for you![/i]”

        • I still have the Master Chief Collection loaded on my console primarily for two reasons… the Bandana skull and the Scarab gun skull. These two skulls make the game a ton of fun. Add in the kinetics skull, and you can send Grunts into orbit. Plus, you can now grenade jump to places you never knew existed. It’s all great fun… That’s what’s missing in Destiny. Fun… Nerfs are anti- fun.

            • Probably why half the players like myself have retired their guardians I'm sick of un needed nerfs to exotics, weapons and abilities that never needed touching. I'm still loving the fact they never reimbursed anyone for the broken artiface armor they refuse to fix i can guarantee if it gave players two extra mod slots instead of none it would of been fixed pronto

              Whitherhoard yes (PVP mainly) Gjallarhorn maybe maybe not. They have a history on confusing 'most viable' and 'most used' at times. 'Most used' can easily at time fall into the 'it really is OP' category most time. Whitherhoard is completely over oppressive in PVP and impresses as the 'no skill' weapon most times. Like most GLs the only skillful thing about Whitherhoard is landing the shot where you want it. The OT ticks are too much. In PVE it overlaps into other OT damage sources at time so I can kinda see why they did it.

            • Bungie, why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not that way. I hate so much about the things that you choose to be.

            • Ghally still will be a top pick and will still be good in group play Witherhoard nerf was 100% coming with how much peoples power use it as an easy add clear solution ...honestly I'm surprised it took this long after the anarchy nerf

              • I haven't really used rockets for anything unless I have a bounty for it and I still don't really use gally.... I haven't really used witherhoard much but I know it's about to be a nearly dead exotic after the nerf like most weapons have become... Like skull of dire ahamkara, and shards.... I rarely ever see people using them anymore for example.

                Wh nerf was probably warranted but not that severely. Poor ghally just wants to be left alone.

              • We can't have streamers doing day one completions in under 12 hours. It would make Salt and company really sad if that were to happen. I think honestly we should just have no health at all and melee only day one. Then after day one is over we are only allowed to use common loot weapons in end game activities. That's what the people want!

                • Also non sarcastic legit comment now. I love witherhoard because it is one of the very few weapons that do effective AoE damage and since Bungie loves to scream out load that this game is an MMO FPS it would be nice to have more ways to do AoE but considering it is one of very few that even work well it sucks that it's getting nerfed. I will wait to see how the nerf is before I flip out over it but again for a game that swears it wants to be an MMO there are very few AoE weapons and healing in general other than using abilities? Forget it. Would love for there to be actual weapons and roles defined for certain jobs like a true MMO. Again I'm just asking for the features that an MMO has since Bungie will tell anyone that this game is an MMO. (It's not.)

                  • Witherhoard's was coming at some point. Gjally I will admit kinda confused me because many already use it as the support Rocket like Bungie wanted
