[quote] Black Hammer
While technically not an exotic, this weapon was chased as if it were. Currently it is the only Sniper Rifle that is more capable of ending a PvE boss faster than Ice Breaker.
•Changes:
◦Increase ammo inventory to 18 rounds
◦White Nail perk now pulls ammo from your inventory

Can it be renamed Siphon Hammer because of this?
I personally won't be using it once this nerf hits because I have a solar Efrideet's Spear with Double Down, Field Scout and Final Round(I primarily use it for PvE not cheap shots in PvP). Why did Bungie wait 8-9 months to do this crap? It's a raid weapon that people have spent countless hours to get... only to just be nerfed because people were, yet again, overusing it, just like the reasoning for auto rifle nerfing way back.
What are your thoughts guys 'n gals? Will you still use yours post patch, or will you find another sniper to end PvE enemies?
P.S. - sorry last poll answer had dustor stuck together, meant to be dust or.

If you can aim of course it is faster than icebreaker you don't have to sit and wait for your ammo to regen for 30 seconds. If anything I thought IB should have regend ammo a little faster.

I wanted it to become an 18 mag sniper called Hammer, I dismantled 2 of mine. I used to have 3, read the update, cried a little, and then I dismantled 2 of mine. I only keep one because of this

I think it's going to still be good, but not a bosskiller, but I had to go with boss killer because it's no going to be out done by other snipers. Not on paper at least.

Why bother with Black Hammer anymore... you'll likely get more rounds off of a NERFED Icebreaker before your Special Ammo Synthesis cools down for an empty Black Hammer.
