I am just sick of getting outgunned by this ridiculously op gun. I watched a little of the #1 player in the world she's my nerd's stream on twitch and asked him about the last word in the chat. He even said it is the only primary he uses period because it is OP and the game is unbalanced. I mean come on, it OUTGUNNED my EXOTIC THUNDERLORD MACHINE GUN at medium range so stop with that " it's an exotic it's suppose to be that good" bs. I really was just about to accept that this game has some horrible balance issues but that was the last straw. It really is a joke how unbalanced this game is. Anybody who uses a last word knows it's OP . Also anybody who uses blink shotgun knows that's OP. Blink needs at least a 2 to 3 second cool down after the FIRST jump period. Anybody who does not also use blink is immediately at a disadvantage against somebody who has mastered the cheap art of blink shotgunning. I play with quite a few people online and most of them who use a last word or who use blink shotgun don't try to defend them. They know what's op and what's not. I don't blame them. Edit: I reduced the rant and instead am offering solutions. Balance issues in the crucible are all on Bungie and only they can fix them. Here are some possible easy solutions. Solution for Last Word: Reduce damage reasonably but Increase the magazine. Solution for Thorn: I enjoy this gun but even ill admit the burn is OP) Burn only activates on Headshots. Solution for Blink Shotgun: Increase cool down after First Blink. Edit: If you blink and shotgun so be it. More power to you but it is OP. Also I'm not condemning the use of the Last Word. I don't blame anybody who uses it. But it is OP. Even the #1 crucible player in the world knows it's OP. It's all he uses. Anyways, getting outgunned by a last word with machine gun is what made me post this thread. I found this video and I'm not the only one who this has happened to and thinks the last word is OP. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hGgWSI6xmHo Edit: No other primary is winning that battle against an exotic Thunderlord. It dropped the guy in less then a second as it did me. It's what TLW does. OP. Edit: This is not a question of skill. All guns take skill to use at a high level. It's just when this gun is used at a high level, it is unmatched in most situations during the crucible, especially if a whole fire team is using it.
