With the weapons we use now, some are clearly more powerful than others, but when people ask for nerfs, that just makes a whole other weapon underpowered. So I am here to ask for a buff.
What we need now is a buff of two classes of weapons, these two classes which I can guess you know I am talking about already are almost obsolete in the crucible.
First that needs to be buffed is the auto rifle, the exotics should be able to kill almost as fast as exotic pulse rifles, but not quite. This is balanced because with pulse rifles you have to aim and if you miss a shot it penalizes you more than with any auto rifle. Secondly, the legendaries need to be able to kill almost as fast as legendary pulse rifle, for the same reason as above.
The second class is scout rifles, these need something to be done so they can be used in the small crucible maps. If you can think
of anything that would help balance them out for the crucible maps I appreciate it! I am open to any suggestion.
This would conclude the weapon balancing and make crucible have much more variety and there would be no more need for all of the annyoing nerf this gun posts. Any feedback is appreciated and please try to keep it constructive guardians!
Edit: It seems some people think that scouts are perfect where they are, and I think so as well, but what do you think about them?

Here is a crazy idea to balance the Crucible. NO EXOTICS OF ANY TYPE PERIOD. Save them for Iron Banner. No reason really why everyone in the crucible can't get by with fully upgraded Legendaries.
-
Scout rifles are for medium to longer ranges. Keep them there. Go play combined arms and see how many handcannons you face, then notice how many scout rifles you face... Its a matter of picking the right tools for the situation. Scout rifles are right where they should be. And some are just murder regardless, like Mida being great for most if not all the current crucible maps, and by the look of it all the 4 new house of wolves maps too.

MIDA hype! SUROS hype! VoC hype! Last word+thorn+felwinters= [spoiler]boooooo[/spoiler]

We should be nerfing food Shit is too good

There needs to be more exotic scouts; one isn't much of a selection. AR's were way too powerful pre-patch, but they over did the nerf and now it's lacking.
-
I agree ARs need buffed and TBH I wouldn't mind seeing scout rifles take 1 less shot to kill. Thorn can outperform scout rifles from all ranges. Scout rifles aren't terrible but even with 1 less shot to kill they would be less effective than most hand cannons.
-
I use VoC, and I see no need for a buff. (I'm not saying I'm very good, but I usually have a positive kd and a decent amount of points).

Edited by GreyMaiden: 5/3/2015 4:22:04 PMAutos need a buff, scout rifles are perfect where they are. The only thing holding them back is exotic hand cannons, which need to be toned down. Legendary ones are fine.

Scout rifles are fine. For CQB you should use a high firerate scout.

Auto buff please and more frequent special amo.
