Ok let me start of by saying Majority of Weapon nerfs stem from PVP . As it Currently stands PR are the meta in the crucible . Why is this ? Simply because they have the fastest TTK among all weapon types but Pulse Rifles are strong but not OP . The main reason they are dominating right now is due to the Hand Cannon Nerf . Aside from Hawkmoon , Last Word and a few others they suck ass . Bungie did it again instead of fixing a few guns that needed tweaks they ruined an entire weapon class . auto Rifles are in a better place winced getting a buff but they could be better . Scout Rifles are very strong but with the way most Crucible maps are designed PR perform better in the close , mid or long range . I just feel like PR are performing how they are supposed too . If they get Nerfed what's next everyone camping with SR . Then ppl will cry about how " OP" Scouts are . Ppl will always use whatever the best guns are its a never ending cycle . The crucible will never be balanced and that's something we have to except . In Conclusion Buff auto Rifles & Handcannons leave PR hoe they are
