Hello Guardians! Here, I will be talking about how Bungie should fix the Crucible in my opinion. I am, obviously, no expert in video-game design, but I play the Crucible a lot, and I really think that the changes that I am about to mention should be implemented, in order to improve the overall state of the PvP meta-game, because, as it is right now, I believe that it is broken.
So let's talk about weapon balance, or rather, the lack of it on the primary weapon slot. Let's think about this for a second: if you're going into Trials, if you're going into a competitive match, into a tournament, which weapons would you use? Probably either The Last Word, Thorn or MIDA Multi tool. A few might say Doctrine Of Passing or even No Land Beyond (due to the special ammo changes). But I believe that the first 3 weapons that I've stated, Thorn, Last Word and MIDA, should be brought down a little in order to create a balanced Crucible experience.
In this video, I take a look at these exotics individually and explain how I would change them in favor of a more balanced and fun crucible experience.
Leave your thoughts below and let me know how you would tune these, or possibly other exotics, in order to create a more balanced PVP experience.
Thank you for your attention and cooperation Guardians!
May our paths cross as members of the same fireteam, or as rivals in the Crucible!

I didn't watch the video...but I don't think I need to. The last -blam!-ing thing this game needs is more "bringing weapons down" aka nerfing bullshit. Hand cannon accuracy needs to be consistent again, high impact pulse rifles need their damage back, fusion rifles need extreme therapy, and that's it. Doing this will create more viable options because there's a shit ton of weapons that can be great if they'd only be consistent. The weapons you listed needing a nerf aren't overpowered...they're just the most consistent in being successful.
