So bungie, when is that Fabian Strategy buff inbound?

Buff it

238

Its fine where it is

23

Very, very few people can argue that the fabian strategy is not in need of a buff. The gun is outperformed at medium ranges by other autos, and the front lines perk requires you to be in shotgun range to activate. A gun that force you to be in close range to activate the exotic perk should reward you for being so close, or at least provide more of a damage boost. My ideas: Keep the perk as is. Keep the damage the same before and after the front lines perk activation. Possibly add a ammo refill ability when perk activates to account for any loss of ammo beforehand [b][i][u]or[/u][/i][/b] Change the perk entirely. When aiming down sights, the gun provides a juggernaut shield around your body (but not your head) that has about 100 hp (half that of the normal jug shield). There will be a 5 second cooldown timer for when the shield is activated before it can be reactivated. (Cooldown can be adjusted) If you have any ideas, please write them below

    • How about an ace of spades buff too? Or all handcannons. Idk though I'm open to discussion. I just feel like it's hard to hit anything with handcannons, including AoS. Tlalaloc is pretty good right now.

      • My biggest problem with it is ammo count. 40 isn't enough considering the perk it has turns it into a Doctrine.

        Your ideas arent bad at all but if bungie wants to do this easier all they have to do is Replace flared Magwell with hand laid stock Also increase the radius from which the exotic perk kicks in.(There done this before with LoW). At this very moment the front line perk activates within slide shotgun range so you know what usually happens. At this very moment when comparing Fabian Strategy to the other mid impact exotic auto rifles there is no reason to use this one. I have the number to back up my claim however I'm just waiting for the comments that go like "Fabian Strategy is fine and doesn't need a buff, you just have to know how to use the gun". I guess that's why I almost never see it in the crucible, everyone has to be a scrub than. PS. Warlocks and Hunters actually got decent primary and special weapons. The Titan got the shaft :(

        • I just like how Hunters and Warlocks got pretty decent guns and then the Titan guns are absolute garbage fires.

          • I got killed by it a few times this last IB. It caught me off guard, had to do a double take.

          • Yeah change the perk. It doesn't activate close or fast enough, the perk makes the gun worse as you have awful Stability and increased RoF messes it up, and you burn through ammo quicker. A waste of an exotic. Increase Stability and change the perk.

          • Put it back to where it was. Then it should be good. But if you feel like it needs more, give it a small ammo buff. Change ammo from 40 to 45-50 area.

          • Prolly around the same time when they fix the Screen Shake nonsense with Hardlight and wrap it in a pretty bow for Christmas. [spoiler]Or we could see it in by RoI Release, if we at least half heartedly pray hard enough for it.[/spoiler]
