Ghally... Why, just why...

This is going to piss a few fanboys off but I gotta ask... Why does Bungie allow a weapon to stay in the game which takes away all forms of "skill" & negates the need for strategy in all PvE end game content... Seriously, each week people post here with "here is how to beat nightfall in 20 seconds, or " here is how to beat Skolas in under a minute" or the oft used "git gud skrub, u can't join cause no Ghally" due their fireteam using all ghally... I don't have one & have had the game since day 1; yes I really really (fkin really) want one, but I still must ask why... Why would a company who's sole game style is grind grind grind, keep this thing so ridiculously amazing that it can beat any boss before the true "test" of an encounter can even kick in. Seems ridiculous to me, but as I don't have one (& at this point it seems I never will) who cares... I'll just be over here grinding away in hopes of one day "giting gud" Edit: Not a Nerf post... Read it again..[b].[i]For Science[/i][/b] [spoiler]I don't care what weapon it is (although it's generally ghally, thus this post) but anything that lets you end a fight before the mechanic that requires teamwork kicks in, seems like lazy game design. (See also, arc snipers this week)[/spoiler]

  • You will get one some day. I didn't have one up until last December. Then shortly after my first one, I started receiving them once every couple weeks. Right now I'm down to 1 per character. It's a good way to farm exotic shards at the moment.

  • Look man i was right there with you having a little over 500 hours and also playing since day one. I did every activity that dropped exotics and still nothing. I had almost given up hope, that was untill the dlc dropped. PoE is almost a guarantee that you will get an exotic and now that legendary engrams dont give you anything other then what it suppose to its way easier. Just keep at it and dont stop playing because then you wont get one.

    • If anyone wants to spend extra time on crappy end game content they can. I will continue to gally bosses the -blam!- down at every opportunity. I hope you get one though, I would honestly give you one if I could.

        OP, This thread is about as hollow and depressing as the glaringly empty spot in the Heavy Weapons section of your Grimoire. How do you go on each day without wanting to put an end to your torment by shooting yourself in the foot with a Sultan SA/5?

        • Clever...but I see past the lines. You really want a ghorn and you can't seem to score on, its alright, you don't want to sound like all the other kiddos, so instead, you come up with this "thread" on the reasons and other reason surroundind those reasons........its all the same cråp. You WILL get one, just keep up the grind.

          • the best part is the "git gud" comment is supposed to refer to skill, as in monster hunter and other games ive seen this catch phrase in, in this case though, its to get a ghorn and then make it so zero skill is involved i honestly wish i never got my ghorn, and i often try to not reveal i have one because then prople start begging me to carry them through nightfalls and stuff i think in the end, once enough people have it, they'll have to nerf it

                    • I've been playing since day one as well. I just chalk it up to one more example of bad balance. Stupid, really. You don't have to have all Gjallerhorns to get Crota to kneel. It's a myth that only 3 Ghallys can take down Skolas. Perhaps it's just human nature. Excluding others as a means to attempt to feel superior.

                        • Why are there so many people trying to nerf guns! It's really ridiculous. It really is stupid how people on lfg are like you have to have gally, but cmon its a gun that's really good and is fun to use, why take that away from everyone.

                                • Getting a Gally does not make you "git gud". And It is really powerful but its a heavy weapon (which are supposed to be really powerful) and its also an exotic (which usually are the most powerful out of any other kind). I got lucky and got mine ^_^ in a PoE chest last week. REALLY helps with crota

                                      I made a half satire post a wile back asking for it to be nerfed due to its OP on bosses and takes the fun out of strikes ect when u can use skill to beat a boss u use butter cutters op boss melter But I was getting posed with all the nerf this nerf that posts But kinda serious as well If it's nerfed to what other exotics of its class do then it would be balaced yet if it's not a wrecking ball in pvp they won't nerf it at all Fan boys sure got on and posed about that and sure they will when they have a easy ticket to win. Every thing with little to no skill lol and can skip game mechanics built in by killing faster then the mechanics can pop up Plush it needs to be nerfed to some what stop these elitist people who if you don't have one your a scrub when the fact is they have one and are the scrub cause they have the I don't have to try RL lol

                                      • This week my team and I beat Skolas with three arc snipers... same technique as with Gjallarhorns, which means it can be done that way for any burn with snipers. Cheesy strategies exist without Gjallarhorn.

                                            • Gjallarhorn is good and many people use it as a means of making any Boss easier. It is by no means the fastest or only way to do it. Buddy and I was able to bring Skolas down faster using Black Hammer and Ice Breaker. Least it seemed like it from last week.
