With Bungie nerfing/disabling so many other exotic weapon and armor perks in Crucible, hell, even Gambit (e.g. Lucky Pants, Lorentz Driver, Lumina, etc.), I feel like the Heir Apparent's arc shield perk should also be disabled, as its mechanic in Crucible/Trials is broken as hell.

Could just, ya know, play heavy better.

Shield definitely needs a time limit
-
No just disable the catalyst in pvp. The gun/sheild itself is fine.

You get rid of that shield it's just a nice mg with very low recoil, that also happens to have a spin up time unlike any other mg, which is a serious downside. It shouldn't survive as much as it does, because that as is is a problem. But it shouldn't be flat out gone. We have to consider that while we want these things changed, we still want stuff to be usable. Nuking it into oblivion is never healthy for the sandbox.

Yes, give it a revolving element shield , if you take arc damage it changes to void , if you take void damage it changes to solar and so on

Hard counters: -play the heavy….don’t let them get it -use an arc weapon…arc bows work well (so do arc fusions) -stasis….nuff said -team shoot -run away….they can’t catch up and will most likely waste all of their ammo trying to shoot you as you run away) -apply burn damage…keeps the shield from regenerating -use suppresser grenade -the list goes on Yes, it’s a cheesy gun. But does it have counters? Yes [spoiler] I’ll admit I’ll use it. But sometimes you got to do what you have to do to win rounds in trials. [/spoiler]

The gun is doing what it’s supposed to do, if you see one run. It’s your fault if you chose to challenge. You don’t charge at a fist of havoc, why challenge that?

The Arc shield needs to respond to Arc weaponry and abilities. It doesn’t.

I just wish it was consistent when taking damage. Last time I checked Arc shields are weak and break faster when taking Arc damage yet Heir apparent be tanking Chaos Reach, Fusion rifles and Wardclif like it overwrites the elemental damage. lol Hell, just the other day I tanked a Missile Titan and neither of us could believe it.

Wolftones draw 2 shots kill the user. First shot breaks the shield. Just an option. Basically if you allow the team to get heavy you ha e to adjust but it's not impossible. Carry one into the match switch if you need it and switch back.
