I love this weapon in PvE and I know any changes in PvP will likely have negative consequences for its performance in PvE also. But I’m looking at the game long-term, not just the here and now. Recluse is too powerful. I know many of you feel like you’ve earned it and it should be over powered. But for the rest of us, we can see this is not sustainable. Just like all the other old OP weapons that have gone down the drain, we know it will come eventually. I don’t want Recluse to suffer the same wrath that other pinnacle weapons did but damn, as it stand right now, it’s just too damn powerful. Everyone and their mom is using it. It’s cheesy af. I know the recoil takes some getting used to in console. But other than that, it’s just too OP. I think the damage numbers need to come down just slightly, at least the body hit damage. You shouldn’t have to hit someone in the head several times with a scout rifle or hand cannons at normal range but then that player instantly kills you with Recluse despite all your head shots. It’s a gross abuse of the current sandbox. Anyway, I know many of you will disagree and send me hate messages or just tell me to git gud or whatever the hell it is. If you think like a reasonable adult tho, you’ll agree with me deep down inside. This is not good for the longevity of the game. It might fix your appetite right now but alas, it’s killing the game experience.

It’s definitely not out of control. Lol

Instead of crying about nerfing it, why don't you go out there and earn it if like everyone else? Ever heard the proverb "If you can't beat them, join them"? Your viewpoint is selfish. Me me me.

I don't know about PC but it's not that good in PvP on consoles. You're seeing it more often because a lot of people may have got it this season due to freelance playlist. I just use Valakadyne and it's usually better than Recluse in PvP.

1 ReplyEhhhh, just get outside of 15 meters. Especially on console, the range is suuuuper limited, on top of the damage perk only lasting 4 seconds, and the gun itself being a glorified Blue without kills. You have summoned me.

2 RepliesJotunn and oem are way, way worse. At least you need some skill to use recluse.

Honestly a good rolled pillager will beat recluse 90% of the time and a calus mini tool is just as good. you only see more recluses because bungie made it easier to get and all the content creators tell everyone to run it.

1 ReplyDon't let them get in close and don't immediately engage if you suspect they have the unique perk procked and you're fine. For everyone beaching about Erentil it's great for killing Recluse users if you know what you're doing.

I know a good exterminator. I'd give you their number, but they don't do spiders.

Recluse range is very short, so just kill their users at a distance and PROFIT! :)

2 Replies750 smgs outpace recluse unless it has its proc. If you have trouble just pull out an ikelos or huckleberry and it’ll destroy them.

1 ReplyHow many nerf Recluse posts are you going to make in 1 day? This is your 2nd today that I’ve happened to notice. You are some butthurt. Do you think anybody who enjoys this game wants Recluse nerfed? Nobody except you. Make as many nerf posts as you like. It’s not gonna happen. Recluse is the best gun in D2.

9 RepliesAll it needs is to remove the Exotic level perk that procs it's damage buff on [u]other weapon kills[/u]. A perk like that should not be on a legendary.

It has nerf-bat in its future IMO. Making the most of it (in PvE) whilst I can 😁
