  • If you think that autos are a counter to scouts I am not sure what game you’re playing

  • Google also said leaving your child in a hot car for 20 minutes is fine before it got taken down. But yes let believe everything on the internet.

    Idk who wrote that but they are wrong. Currently, scouts and CERTAIN pulses are meta, along side sidearms and spread shot HCs. “Google” is not your answer with games. Some underpaid and under-talented journalist is it’s writing about why he likes to use

  • In the least offensive way possible: You have gotten kills with an outbreak and an auto this week, and you are playing at a 0.64KD. You are not doing fine with that load out.

    [quote]In the least offensive way possible: You have gotten kills with an outbreak and an auto this week, and you are playing at a 0.64KD. You are not doing fine with that load out.[/quote] That's inaccurate if overall. I played many games and finished with a plus KD 99% of the time. Even had a X10 in a trials match. Thing is, its difficult to get better as so many use aim hacks. My overall KD is 1.44, considering I've played very little pvp since launch, I'll take that. It's a weird mode. Though its scout meta, you never see jade rabbit with dmg of 67, yet you get rinsed by something with dmg of much less. Like 50% less. HC that out do scouts and pulses for range? It's a debacle. 😂

Take away the cheats and I'd do better still. I see a fair few autos being used in fairness. Especially comp. Very few shotguns. Pulses, scouts and HC's mainly. Still don't get why you don't see jade rabbit, and crimson though.

  • Just assume double primary is more advanced loadout wise and requires a higher skill curve. At least what you are running. Secondly I know this sounds stupid but anything with special ammo will just beat your loadout. You run last discipline set, then ammo finder and generators and honestly, you dont even have to hard manage the bar either That and pulse and autos have the same 0.8 ttk. Making you literally a target for special weapons to either be rushed or pressured

  • Idfk man, I really don't. Probably a glitch. We had a RDM dynamo glitch which gave someone 5 supers per trials match. Genuinely don't know, dont want to pull the "Cheating" card because I am not at home when it comes to glitches. Some people dont have hobbies and actively try to break the game where they can. The fastest way from my understanding, high intellect with thresh and then its based upon damage. Even then its rare to see what you are seeing. Is this in quickplay or in 3's?

  • I really dont know then honestly 😞 Dunno what servers you are on, I heard Asian servers are quite determined to get a leg up over people (I mean, look at craftening. They found this glitch and have been using it for who knows how long before it was discovered) Honestly, the only thing coming to mind is Dynamo stacking with super generation filled to max in fragments

  • [quote]Some AR's melt. Run around, get kills, play the objective. It's not a difficult concept.[/quote] This! ☝️😁 Find a counter, and be patient! All so-called METAs have a counter in this game. Most of the time, it involves radar manipulation and movement skill. But ARs and surprisingly, Trace Rifles, can be a good alternative.

  • [quote]ARs?! What game are you playing 😂😭[/quote] The new Trials auto rifle Everburning Glitz is a great one. So is Quicksilver. Givers Blessing isn't that bad either. Then you have a slew of others that can be good if you've got a good role for your build.

  • Or I can use a two bursting pulse. Or fang with a drang. Can we get real? This backmap camping meta is an issue.

Ppl do it with snipers regardless of the meta. Players not playing the objective, again nothing new. If you want to counter current meta just play invis hunter as they are favoured in pvp.

  • [quote]Or I can use a two bursting pulse. Or fang with a drang. Can we get real? This backmap camping meta is an issue.[/quote] I was pointing out which ARs are good enough to counter pulse rifle or scout rifles...not pointing out that you can counter that play style with a mirror play style. The point is there is no META that is unbeatable. But yes, the "back of the map crowd" are just using the Easy Button for their skill set. That's on them!

  • They are not countering them. There is not a world in destiny’s current version that ARs beat any scout or pulse with two good players using them on the field.

  • Dextero is wrong. Because pvp wise and it has been since EoF is just run a spread shot handcannon and a long range weapon. I want the lobbies dextero gets because at least I dont have wannabe sweats trying to shove an aureaus neutralizer down my throat every 30 seconds

  • Taken from the game: Fang of Ir yut has a .7 TTM with effectively unlimited range due to it being a scout rifle. Drang kills in 0.6 seconds with a 4 tap, and even less with master of arms 2X allowing it to 3 tap. Spread shot HCs kill almost instantly, as they can be combined with melee abilities to get special weapon like TTKs. All of the above weapons deal absurd amounts of flinch, and are hard to shoot back against because of that.
