Special Changes: Izanagis would have competition if they reversed the box breathing and trench barrel Nerfs. No auto reloading makes the old nerfs pointless. Fusions with damage perks seem fine right now. Seems like specials would be balanced with 2 reversals. Heavy Changes: A few changes are needed for Heavy balance. For Rockets, try an impact casing like buff and increase magazine size for type. Swords need a special perk like rapidly landed hits increase damage resistance and decrease knockback. This would allow the lower damage heavy to have a benefit over others. Rush the boss, attack to allow survivability and more dps, run out when health is low while attacking minors to get to safety. LMG boss damage nerf could be reversed. Linear fusion rifles could use a precision buff. Maybe a new perk for just linears like rapid hit but damage increases with each precision hit up to 3 or 5 instead of accuracy and stability. Sounds like a good exotic perk if too OP for a legendary. Final issue, LFG. Most people post must have x number of clears, must have this weapon, no wipes with the excuse that they want a quick smooth run. They then complain the game is too easy with stacked teams and optimal loadouts. Instead of changing loadouts, they say they're bored and want nerfs. When standard players complain about the nerfs, they say an extra phase on the boss won't hurt anything. They then post requiring the latest meta loadout and boot people preventing a one phase in the new sandbox.

Its not easy killing a corps But bungie found away Damn

Not how game design works Bungie never said you have to get in stomp range, just use xenophage

I don’t remember people complaining about snipers pre-Shadowkeep. So it will be alright. Snipers are the worst one, but with snipers you are supposed to be long range, just take one extra body shot max and it balances out.

I like the last word nerf but unless they nerf snipers in pvp im not too excited about this. When are they going to unnerf lh/nf?

Bungie is determined to drive players away. 💀

[quote]I know why that haven’t put it up here yet. It’s full of nerfs! Can’t do anything without Bungie taking it away. This is ridiculous how they LISTEN to the community. What a joke.[/quote] I’m just sooooo -blam!-ing sick of -blam!-ing nerfs, man. This probably means the “new weapons” are trash and they had to fix all the good weapons to make the new ones look good.

Was wondering how long it'd take to set a course towards Y1 balance. Won't be long until they kill our cooldowns again 😂

This post its full of cry babies oh dear........

Hasn't everyone been asking for nerfs for the past eternity?

Thank god they didn’t nerf Hunters!

Wow they bungied so many guns😂 I mean damn how can a company destroy so many guns and be proud of it😂

It's all to slow us down my friend. They seem to be running out of ideas for this game, so our progression needs to be slowed down. We figured out ways to burn through bosses and raids, they don't seem to want that. Remember in D1 when we could infuse ANY WEAPON and ANY ARMOR with ANY CHARACTER? All to slow us down to a crawl. Yes I understand the "meta" needs to be adjusted at times, but damn. When it takes a whole auto rifle clip to bring down a dreg??? Come....on....now.

Agreed. Complete BS! Like they do realize people don’t use shotguns or swords in PvE for boss fights because every single boss in this game has a stomp mechanic that sends you flying off the map! That or they are floating in the air / off the edge of the playable combat area. Bungie: it’d be cool if we made shotguns and swords OP for fighting bosses Also Bungie: designs all boss to be impossible to take on with shotguns and swords
