Anyone else playing crucible matches where literally the entire lobby is only using these two guns?

Sounds like a fair matchmaking experience if everyone's got the same guns.
-
That always happens when a PvP gun is sold by Xur. Red Death was everywhere after it was sold but it died down pretty quickly.
-
It's only lie is being a shotgun...
-
Lots of tlw in crucible after xur sold it lol.
-
Using the two together seems a bit redundant.
-
Got a hate message from a TLW/felwinters lie, for using the mida and killing him with it a lot
-
Thorn and fwl don't worry man I got this lol
-
Best plan of action is to use the weapons that allow the best chance of winning. Therefore hawkmoon/thorn/last word/red death with fell winter and jolders hammer is the the ideal loadout. Anything else and you're just handicapping yourself. I miss auto rifles being great but it is what it is.
-
Why does that matter? The gun isn't doing the work. It's skill man. The guns are good yea but you have to be some what skilled using them. At range the red death beats both weapons. It comes down to skill with a weapon and map awareness. And if you keep dying from the last word learn how to use it. It's a great weapon after all. The fel winter is a different story. If you keep getting rushed try to move back when you see red approaching you fast. Usually they have a shot gun. As for blinking noobs with fel winter try to pull out your shotty and slide under them as soon as they blink. It all comes down to overall skill.

Not really, I notice a lot of Thorn spam. Just use your Stranger's Rifle and own them from midrange, lol, that gun is seriously amazing in PVP now.
-
Thats a bad setup my go to setups are Hawk moon with felwinter cuz up close hawkmoon barely survives The Last word with Pradeyths Revenge
-
Weapons are not OP. The man behind the gun... He is OP

Edited by RogueExile: 4/21/2015 8:04:45 PMWell to be honest it's smart to use those two guns together. TLW for mid to close with felwinters sniper for that long range snipe :p

Edited by ArcanumStorm: 4/21/2015 7:53:31 PMthanks for posting this. my bowl of tears had almost dried up. NOW FULL TO THE BRIM! yipeeeee
-
Lol I play TLW, Praedyths Revenge, and Corrective measure! Who needs a shotty when you're primary does it all.
-
Yes, all it is now is the last word, thorn, red death, felwinters and prydeths revenge. 5 guns out of 200-300 are being used 95% of the time in crucible, just sad.
-
Buff auto and scout rifles?
-
Everytime
-
Every lobby. But that's alright. I still enjoy pvping.

Edited by Rawsten: 4/21/2015 2:41:34 PMIt's definitely over half of the skirmish games I play where the majority of the lobby is using an exotic handcannon and felwinters/praedyths revenge. Titans are becoming rarer as well, and the percentage of games where I'm the only non-hunter is probably a little less than 50.
-
I change weapons every match. Keeps it interesting. But yes, its a great combo.
-
Unfortunately yes... All Crucible is anymore is Thorn, Last Word, Felwinters, some Red Death, some Vex Mythoclast and Praedyths Revenge. Howmany hundreds of guns are in Destiny? Well, apparently there are 6... And 90% of everyone uses either a Hunter or Warlock... Took me 9 games to run into ONE Titan yesterday, i counted... But, yeah guys, PvP is totally balanced! Lmao!!! But whatever you do don't complain about the inbalance on the Destiny forum! Too many "git gud" and "shut up meg" responses indicate that its run by 10-13 year olds who don't understand how game balance works and are perfectly fine with using the same six guns out of the hundreds Bungie gave us for all of eternity.

Every MMO style PvP has a meta. TLW, Thorn, Felwinters Lie, Radegasts Fury, Firebolt Grenades, Arcbolt grenades w/ Lucky Raspberry, Sunsinger, Bladedancer and Blink are the meta for Destiny. It will change with the addition of subclasses, gear and weapons eventually that's the great thing about loot based PvP it's not going to be the same forever, but while these options are best, players who want to win will use them. Like it or not it doesn't matter. Extreme cases of lag need to be addressed ahead of anything else.
-
Yep. Fellwinters needs to go away. Shotguns are not snipers.
-
Hawkmoon or Red Death (depends on the map) paired with my two to the morgue with luck in the chamber and shot package is my usual combo. Tttm might get replaced with found verdict though.
