I'm just interested to find out others favorite era of Crucible game play. Mine is around the first IB. Suros was still king in the crucible. Most people had reached level 30 and more people were playing crucible because they had completed the other game content. It was competitive because ARs are easy enough for new players to use but take control to get low time to kill (T2K), so the skill gap was closer. The maps were open enough with good choke points for sniping but snipers weren't totally safe so it was balanced. With the maps being open it took skill to work in close to use the shotgun I could give them credit if I got one shot because they did the work. In particular I'm thinking of Shores of Time, Twilight Gap, and Blind Watch.
That is my favorite time in the evolution of the Crucible. How about you.

Before people did vault of glass hard everyone was using a shingen-E or C and it was the best, nobody complained because nothing was too powerful and it was just so much fun encountering rare and uncommon weapons

Right after the Vex nerf (ya'll know which one I mean) I was using ARs, Fusion Rifles, Last Word, Praedyth's Revenge and one of three MGs. Until Dark Below and I got Hawkmoon then that was my favorite primary. Still pretty much is. But I try to bounce around with my weapons, currently sidearms are a blast, Hawkmoon is still pretty awesome but I'm enjoying my Iron Banner pulse rifle, the new raid scout rifle, still like to snipe occasionally. MGs are still go to Heavy but Swords are amazing fun.

Edited by NathanW18: 11/4/2015 4:52:03 AMAfter the first or second shotgun nerf. Everybody moved over to fusion rifles. They had too much range but damn, they were fun to use. Light of the Abyss will always be my favourite. I also had a really good Light/Beware. RIP. :( I thought most weapons were viable during this period. The only weapon type that really sucked were pulse rifles. The high impact and high range shotguns weren't a thing yet and we didn't have the Grenade and Horseshoes rocket launches. This made things a lot more balanced.

Hand cannon era. Last Word/sniper was my favorite combo.
-
AR era I still hold on to my Shadow Price, in hopes that it can be some day ascended.
-
Probably hand cannon era because you could still wreck with bad juju and the Mida multi tool
-
Before auto rifle nerf.
-
Thorn era that's when my pvp was at best. Not only because of thorn but because I was best with snipers during this time
-
Auto rifle era, back when auto rifles were fun and fusion rifles we good if u could use them right. Now a days it's get sniped by shot guns or splattered by a sniper. There's no way side arms or fusion rifles can hold up against these pesty things

1 ReplyI enjoyed the Month of the Fusion Rifles. I don't know why, they were incredibly overpowered and needed a nerf, but I just didn't get annoyed when I got killed by one.
