I remember the first time I heard about the mythoclast this awesome exotic that could only be obtained from defeating atheon on hard difficulty that could easily cut down enemies like a hot knife through butter. Sadly I didn't obtain the mythoclast until it had been nerfed into the ground thanks to all the cry babies constantly complaining about it but this is where the problem starts. Instead of just nerfing its PVP performance its performance in PVE was also greatly nerfed. The weapon that people had worked really hard for was reduced to a useless piece of crap and was left to later on be slightly buffed. In PVP the buff was enough in close to short range the mythoclast is a beast in the right hands. however its PVE performance is still crap it's only useful if you can get headshots constantly against lower tier enemies and even then it burns through ammo like no tomorrow which is what a lot of people think is the problem. However after thinking about it very carefully I have come to realise its not the ammo that's the problem its the damage of it that's the problem. If the mythoclast had its damage restored (PVE ONLY) then there would not be an ammo problem at all as its damage output what justify the ammo capacity. It doesn't need an ammo buff a range buff or a PVP buff just a PVE damage buff by restoring the vex to it's original damage output in PVE it would actually allow people who worked hard for it be able to use it as a viable option over exotics like the g horn. (the very first exotic I ever had) I know for a fact that if the vex was restored in pve everyone would be extremely happy and it would never be needed to be buffed or nerfed ever again at least that's my opinion I'll just have to wait and see if my wish comes true hopefully it will :)

The Vex used to be amazing… then Bungie happened.
-
Pve it's not good at all. Pvp it's among the best and is about to pass thorn and last word when ttk and its patch drop
-
No, by all means - buff it in PvP as well. I'm tired of all those TLW / Thorn / Shot package shotgun posts. With a few more strong weapons there would be more variation in the whining.
-
Bump even though I don't have one yet
-
-
I agree I think all weapons should have their pve damage restored because who cares about pve that much to complain? Nobody that's who!
-
It's been nerfed heavily. If they can auto balance everyone to be equal in crucible I don't see why can't there be different PvP and PvE stats.
-
Also for anyone who thinks upgrading it to 365 atk will make it better it won't it really, really won't lol. I promise you it will still only be effective against lower tier enemies of course unless there's a solar burn nightfall then its a bit better. It will also not be so bad when the primary weapon damage increase modifier is on in the prison of elders but outside of that it will be disappointing.
-
No one would use it anyway cause ghorn is a god. Right now it actually has the highest dps of any primary in PvE. Doesn't really need a buff maybe they could just nerf ghorn so the other exotics have a use.

I just want the damn thing 😒

Edited by Ω=S/\m TΞktzb¥=Ω: 5/19/2015 5:20:52 AMAgree with actually all exotics. Vex and other exotic weapons should be beasts. Vex especialy, helvete it is weapon awarded from HARD RAID ergo its should be felt in PvE and PvP as well. It is quite ridiculous how PvE players can ruin the weapon through whole game, just because few guys find it in one of the hardest modes in game. Normaly i agree with some balancing, but i defo cannot agree with ruining exotic weaponary, just because someone was killed by it.

Edited by LimpKillerD: 5/17/2015 5:47:08 PMTotally agree, the Vex is my to go primary most of the time, the only usable "auto rifle" left. While it's OK most of the time it can't compete with the likes of Fatebringer or VoC in terms of damage output. Edit: typo.
-
I completely agree. I used the vex on the orchestra and it to a whole clip and some with the extended mag. bungie I understand that How will be all people are talking about but take this into consideration because I'm sick of getting rushed in weekly strike or nightfall by a Minion of darkness and getting slapped out existence because my vex couldn't get the job done.

As a guy who mainly sticks to PvE (partly because I suck at PvP, partly because PvE is just more enjoyable for me), I don't think Vex needs to be changed much. Although long overdue and past its usefulness, I always thought it should have Oracle disruptor as one of its perks. Seemed odd to me that every legendary weapon from VoG has Oracle disruptor, but the only exotic one doesn't. Just my opinion. There are some guns that aren't useful in PvE, and the Vex (for the most part) is one of them
-
Didn't it just get nerfed lol? new ones are dropping at 300 max.
-
Every weapon should be turned into a one hit kill God gun. Peace x
-
Couldn't read. This hurts my eyes!
-
My first exotic was a Suros Regime I got from crucible. It was really cool back then, but now.......
-
It's fine the way it is.
-
Vex = only good for fusion bounty. Had it pre nerf and it was funny to use in pvp but other then that never touched it in pve
-
The Vex is fine the way it is right now. It doesn't need to be touched by Bungie ever again.
-
Id be happy with more pve ammo
-
But it's already better than every other weapon in the game in PvE and PvP?

Longest sentences in history..

In my opinion it should get Oracle disruptor. Crowd control is nice but it isn't exactly exotic...
