Good update, but let's go ahead and change the grenade launcher to a sniper before crucible becomes a mess.
Luna's was fun to go after, because so many opponents were using hand cannons which pushed actual gunfights.
Now it's just going to be a fighting lion/colony/other spam all game long.
This doesn't feel very "competitive" to me.
Snipers had a solid place within our loadouts during Destiny 1 and have yet to be restored to their old status.
Bungie will still have to make some changes to the sniper baseline ADS and handling speed in order to make this Pinnacle weapon worth chasing.
Edit - They could basically just make it StillPiercer and I'd be happy. Maybe add quickdraw intrinsically.

Your kidding right? Hcs in a great place? Hardly. You have maybe 6 weapons or so that I see repeatedly used. There isn't enough weapon choices, or availability of perks that can come on all weapons not just hcs. Scouts and autos are also not at the greatest spot. New maps really are needed, no getting around it.

Oh for sure I agree. I never said Hand cannons or any other weapons were in a good place. I just don't want to see the incoming grenade launcher spam. I've always been a multi tool abuser anyway.

because there are virtually no maps that a sniper can be used on

Equinox is the only really good sniper map. Some others like distant shore and firebase echo are okay.

You should be slowed dramatically if ADS a sniper. Shouldn't be able to strafe. IMO, OFC

It's never really been quick when ADS. I think strafing speed is fine on them right now.
