I honestly think that was a good move on Bungie's part. If you hipfire a fully upgraded Last Word you don't need Perfect Balance; the recoil was really low anyway because of the Signature perk so I used Single Point Sling instead. Even Pre 2.0, it was very difficult to fight at mid ranges [i]if you hipfired.[/i] However, many players specced into Perfect Balance and ADS "Sniped" people across the map. Since I didn't use Perfect Balance, ADS was a waste of time. I'd either duck out or try to Snipe. It was Perfect Balance that made Last Word unbalanced.
