Vex nerfed in PVE, hive shields triggering bad juju in phogoth strike, trash mobs not triggering bad juju if any lag at all, and secret handshake bonus ammo perk not triggering at all

After trying out the Vex last night in PVE I discovered that its reserve ammo was lowered from 227 to about 140ish. I have gear on that should keep it higher but it has been lowered by an absurd amount. Its recoil and accuracy is worse now then when it was brand new (this is all still in PVE). When shooting Knights in phogoth strike if they bring up their shields it will trigger bad juju perk of refilling magazine. Alternatively in the rocketyard (didn't test many other places) trash mobs would not trigger bad juju perk if any lag at all. Also it seems that the super boost on bad juju is not triggering as effectively as before, but that could just be my imagination. On the shotgun Secret Handshake the bonus ammo perk does not work at all. This was the same on prepatch 1.1.1 in that it did not work. Small rant now: Please Bungie stop nerfing the Vex. It is a very rare gun and difficult to obtain. It should have a few good perks or at least have a good reserve ammo size. Im not asking to charge it up like it used to be, I'm just asking give it a reserve ammo size of say 350. I feel 560 should be where it is, but I feel that wouldn't happen. Give people a reason to enjoy having their vex instead of groaning now when they get it from Atheon, or dreadfully putting it in their vault. This proposed ammo reserve change would still keep it balanced yet make it actually want to be played in PVE. Thank you and thank you for the shotgun buffs, now if they had more ammo reserve that'd be perfect, I'm actually happy using my Hawkmoon with a shotty in PVE now.

  • The Vex Mythoclast has the same reserve ammo as before. However in crucible it has been lowered in the beginning of the match due to a known bug. The reason you may not have as much ammo may be because you have lost the Fusion Rifle Ammo perk. The max ammo on the Vex is still 262. As for the bad juju, the bug on the hive knight's wall of darkness has be around since launch. It is not a game breaking bug however it is a bug none the less. I do not know what you are referring to on your shot gun, so I cannot explain accurately. Thanks!
