Auto Rifles did not deserve the nerf they were given. It is one thing to tweak something here or there, but what was done accomplished nothing but eliminate an entire class of weapon from competition. In Crucible, they are outclassed at every range by pretty much any weapon in the game. This is not balance in any form. Pulse rifles were in general bad and needed a buff. After the buff I still don't like them. Why? They are boring, do not have any cool sounds, and just don't have the feel I am looking for. Auto Rifles need more work to at least make them a weapon that can compete with the Hand Cannons, Pulse, and Scout Rifles..
