God Iron Banner Sucks

Pulse rifle city! It's unbelievable how broken and OP pulses are compared to everything else right now. I would argue it's worse than Thorn, because it's not just one or two weapons, THE ENTIRE -blam!-ING TYPE OF WEAPON IS OP. Some sort of Nerf has to be inbound. Edit 1: Wow over 100 replies! I was just salty about pulse rifles, and decided to make this post. I still think they're OP, and could easily be fixed. Edit 2: Just hopped on Iron Banner, pulses are no less broken then yesterday. God Bungie needs to address this. Edit 3: Great news from the Bungie gods! New balances will be coming in December, along with pulses getting a very very slight damage reduction. Auto rifles will be getting a damage buff, hand cannons an accuracy buff, and scout rifles will stay the same(like always). Can't wait for balance, as I think and hope after this patch we will be the closest to a balanced Crucible we ever have been. Edit 4: Woohoo 300 replies!

    I knew this would happen. People pick on the weapon they get killed by more than anything else. I call bullshit! You're no different than me, I see a few red deaths, hacksaws, but mainly its weapons I've never even heard of. So stop with this shit before Bungie decides to take another weapon line and totally blow it up. And further, Bungie should shove their stats up their ass and leave us alone. Who cares if more people use X weapon or X super. Back the F off and let us play for once, like we F'ing want to!!! Edit: Well I guess you got your wish based on the news I just read regarding the December 2015 weapon tuning update. I hope you're soooooooooooo happy now!!!! Damn, Bungie blows major ASSSSSSSSSSSS

    I've topped leaderboards with my Hung Jury. The guns aren't perfectly balanced, but it's closer now than it's ever been.

      • Id rather have all pulses be usable than just -blam!-ing thorn and last word.

      • Pulse Rifles aren't broken. Everything else is. Auto Rifles need another slight buff, after they -blam!-ed them up almost a year ago. Hand Cannons' dispersion was borked with 2.0 Scout Rifles are better fit for bigger maps. Sidearm damage rate is a joke. Should've been dual wielded to begin with. Fusion Rifle charge times are too long and have been since they nerfed them almost a year ago. They "break" other weapons leaving us to pick what hasn't been -blam!-ed with. Pulse Rifles just haven't been "fixed" so they actually still work.

      • It isn't broken by any means. Not nearly as bad as me going in and all 12 players, including myself, were using thorn. Now that is broken. A little tuning is coming soon so don't worry.

        • I don't think pulse rifles are OP , they have just nerfed everything else into the ground .

            • What cry nerfs dont seem to get is that if none of the guns had ever been nerfed then by now several buffs could have been applied and wed have a whole host of devastating guns to use in every game mode and thered be no problem. Whenever bungee nerf one gun or type of gun or perk or super, it will always just be replaced by another one. We could have several op weapons right now but nerf was cried and so we have pulse rifles, shotguns and snipers, hammer of sol and final round. Everything else is feather duster territory according to the same people who moaned about autos and hand cannons, gjallahorn being too relied upon etc. If everyone stops crying nerf and just shouts buff instead we might be able to do more than just tickle with all the other guns...

              • Haha, I'm not really enjoying this one because the Hard Mode Raiders dominate... As a 296 non-Raider it feels like I can't even scratch some players...

                  Frankly this pulse rifle meta is better than the hand cannon meta we had. The fact that I can use a auto rifle and win a gun fight makes me happy. I say you make pulse rifles base stability stat trash. This way people hit a couple body shots and a headshot here or there (like what pulse rifles are intended for). The fact that pulse rifles can still get to max stability is ridiculous.

                • What did you expect. Pulse rifles have always been used. That's not new. Red Death, Bad Juju, Pilgrim, Allfate, etc. You never noticed them before because people mostly used Thorn/TLW. It's only logical that people are now going to bitch about the next VIABLE weapon. Do I like pulse rifles, NO. But what choice do I have when they keep nerfing weapons? The list of usable weapons gets smaller.

                • Then use a pulse! Everyone complains about each meta. Like you said, it's not just one or two, it's all of them. So that means you have plenty of options to choose from.

                  • The issue is the amount of quality weapons in the pulse rifle category. All weapon types have viable options, but there are just fewer quality weapons overall in the other archetypes.

                  • I tried to stay away from pulse rifles in the "Iron Hammer" (of Sol) but my Last Extremity wasn't cutting it. The Smite Of Merian is a damn good gun.

                  • Lmao gtfo This is way better than only having the option to choose between 2 weapons to be competitive You can also get success with tlw and hawkmoon Or a good scout rifle Ars are still a little under-par but that's ok bc they take the least skill to use
