Holy cow bungie killed them
Sniper inventory reduced by 5-7 shots. That's freaking huge!
Let's talk math(exciting I know lol)
If I have 23 rounds max on my stillpiercer, with boots on and all.
For simplicity sake let's say to a pve boss I do a flat 1000 per hit.
23x1000=23000
Now with hit to ammo lets use avg and say 6 rounds removed
18
17x1000=17000
That is a 26% reduction in potential damage (over a quarter)
That's horrible, and a bad call please bump and comment maybe someone will see this
Edit, I have never trended before so thanks to all
Edit 2, near 1500 replies thanks I've never had over 20 before lol so thanks to all and be careful out there in the update

4 RepliesBungie needs to "rework" whoever is in charge of weapon balance. They LITERALLY only nerfed mida, 1k stare, and terminus because they're too popular. They actually say it in the update that they're being nerfed despite being balanced because so many people use them. Actual word for word what they said on the MIDA Multi Tool: [quote]Ignoring popularity, we think MIDA is fairly balanced in the global scale of weapons but I’m sure many non-MIDA users are starting to get tired of seeing that name come up in their death screen. Considering the popularity of the weapon we wanted to preserve how it feels to use but thought it was best to make it a little less horrible to be on the receiving end.[/quote] On the 1000 Yard Stare: [quote] This is an interesting situation. We don’t like punishing a relatively-balanced weapon just because it is popular, but we also want players to feel like they have options.[/quote] On Quillim's Terminus:[quote]Not to keep banging the same drum, but it is important to us that players feel like they have options and that there isn’t a single ultimate weapon per archetype.[/quote] THEN MAYBE TRY ADDING MORE OPTIONS YOU CLOWNS

What do you win when you get 1500 replies ? :)

1 ReplyI completely ran out of ammo during POE and I was running around the arena desperate for special ammo and none was dropping. Then other games I was spammed with the stuff. It just isn't consistent. The balance is definately not right for pve. My buddy on the other hand said he had tons of ammo dropping for him.

19 RepliesGUYS. No need to panic. I haven't done a raid in a very long time, so I decided to find a chill group and do a little test. I used Sleeper Simulant with armor that lets me carry more ammo for heavy weapons, so I had 12 shots. Everyone else used Black Spindle and were all around the same light levels (between 315 and 318 for the people doing DPS.) We had to wipe at one point, and it was right after I had finished using all 12 Sleeper shots and roughly 8-10 1KYS shots. Well, I won't explain any further, but I'll let the numbers do the talking: https://account.xbox.com/en-us/screenshot/46b46464-7568-4049-8f29-807577b18956?gamerTag=JOHHNN%20CENAAA&scid=37770100-f9ae-4b80-9dad-7c1d0ec14469 I had about 120,000 damage more than anyone else on the team. Please bump this post so people can see! I tried searching a recent video that did a damage test on Sleeper on Warpriest, but all of the videos I had come across were from when the Sleeper first came out and only had 7 rounds. Bump this post so people can see!

1 ReplyGood thing I'm a pvp player and use shotguns only :)

4 RepliesOh darn no more spindle spamming bosses ....sad
-
3 RepliesVery good point. I'm really not happy with how they do everything for pvp. They should have separate nerfs for separate things. The ammo reduction should be only in pvp, not in pve too
-
7 RepliesI was lucky enough to get skip rounds on my 1000 yard, the nerf doesn't even affect me :D

4 RepliesYour max ammo for snipers is 25 with armor that have extra heavy ammo perk, not extra sniper.

3 RepliesAnd our increased light level will mean each shot does more damage

2 RepliesAnother thing that's gonna ruin PvE because of changes to PVP... I think secretly they saw the methods for killing bosses in in the raid, snipers.... Giving you less ammo, means you'll run out quicker, there by artificially increasing the difficulty of the encounter.

I see these posts all the time. Yes, your damage per reserves is reduced. However, your Damage per second and Damage per clip are unchanged. Additionally, how often do you dump your entire reserve of sniper ammo into a boss? For me, including KF, it is close to never. I always have a few rounds left over (1-2). This might be because I always take left side on Warpriest and am usually grabbing attention at Golgoroth so someone can grab gaze. In the case of Warpriest, it simply means high range machine guns will be highly desired (of which, Qullim's Terminus was never in the running). Hell, this also gives ground to Sleeper Simulant and possibly even rocket launchers for Warpriest since the goal is to stagger as often as possible. This is achievable through other means. So yeah, Snipers took a minor hit. Their overall damage is down 26%, as you pointed out, but that is easily made up for through other weapons. It is their burst damage (DPS) that ultimately matters and that hasn't been changed at all.
