I am beginning to think that Bungie may have nerfed auto rifles too much especially in PvE. They seem to have gone into a kind of grey area where they are outclassed by other weapons and don't really even fill the medium range engagement role well. I think that they should look at a very small buff in PvP and a slightly larger buff in PvE. I don't have anything scientific, but they just feel underpowered now.
What do you guardians think?

I agree with you on the fact that they should have a buff for PvE, but I have the complete opposite view on buffing them for PvP. The only reason why they did the auto rifle nerf was because way too many people were using them in crucible, which basically means they're over powered. Before the nerf, I would guess and say that at the very minimum that half of my deaths were from the SUROS Regime. I find my self looking at what I was killed by in the top right, and it was almost always the SUROS. The nerf made people want to use other weapons in crucible and not just the vex and the SUROS. Ever since the nerf, I find it rare to be killed by the SUROS, which I'm very happy with.
