Only buffing weapons is not the solution, and will only make things worse.

I agree.

I agree, but I have better ideas in the comments.

To everyone who says that the answer is to stop nerfing and only buff weapons, that is an awful idea. Because in the end, you will end up with ridiculous times to kill across the whole game just like CoD has. And then people will just go back to crying for nerfs. The real solution lies with specific weapon tuning. And here's why; Many people have been crying for a nerf for the Mida. But Mida is one of the only balanced guns left. It's not op and does NOT need a nerf. The problem is that every other weapon type has been unnecessarily nerfed. The problem is that when one weapon out of a weapon type is op, the whole class takes on a nerf instead of that specific weapon. When the SUROS was op, every auto got nerfed. When Thorn and TLW were op, every hand cannon got nerfed. When Red Death was op, every pulse rifle got nerfed. And the reason all of these weapon types climbed to the top wasn't because the others were nerfed, but because those types were also buffed across the whole weapon types. See where I'm going with this? It doesn't make sense and is an awful way to manage weapon balancing. We need weapon specific tuning, and yes, that still includes nerfing, but not whole archetype tuning. That is what's destroying this games balancing; a lack of in depth research and tuning. And instead, Bungie slaps blanket nerfs and buffs across every weapon in every update. If Bungie starts tweaking specific weapons that need some buffing or nerfing instead of tweaking weapons that will potentially become op or far underpowered (like ALL autos back in vanilla) with the new stats applied because they didn't actually need tuning, then I believe balance will be much easier to achieve in this game. I will cut Bungie some slack though. Because when people see a weapon being used frequently, people come to the forums and ask for the whole class to be nerfed instead of asking for that one weapon to be tweaked. That also needs to stop.
