I find primary weapons plenty rewarding to use right now. Right now actually, in the Iron banner, for the first time in perhaps a long time, I've seen all the classes of primary weapons being used. Hand Cannons, Pulse Rifles, Auto Rifles, and Scout Rifles are all present rather than just 1 meta and every build centered around that singular meta. Most of the unfair builds that people used to complain about are gone now. My only problem is that sidearms spawn you with ammo upon death while no other class of weapon does. That used to be a perk on Vestian Dynasty that it would respawn with ammo, but now every single sidearm does that. They should either nerf that to stay consistent with the other weapons, or let other weapons have a (small) reserve of ammo that players start with upon respawn (ex. 2 shotgun shells or 2 sniper rifle bullets). Personally my preference is the former and the sidearms fall in line with the other secondary weapons.
