Hand cannons aside from the exotics weren't broken. Pulse rifles are all super strong. Seriously the class as a whole is just way too strong right now because they decided to destroy hand cannons.
Pulse rifles, as a whole class, are stronger than anything has ever been with the exception of perhaps the beta auto rifles.

Tell that to my tlaloc. She will answer: "no guardian...simply no"

Truth. Legendary hand cannons before 2.0 were okay, but also really not a whole lot of use. The exotic ones made it seem like they were some kind of powerhouse as an archetype, but that's simple not the case. Autos and hand cannons need a re-buff to bring them back to competitive level. Pulses are just out classing everything right now.

Nah. Handcannons were stupid OP. As in it was stupid to give them so much range.

I can put gun any pulse unless they spot me first then it's me counting on the perk to activate. Also if you play regular crucible the wolves leash scout from HoW is amazing. Had great target aquisition and a rate of fire that's super fast to take out the enemy team with head shots non stop

Thank you!

HAND CANNONS IN GENERAL WERE NEVER OVERPOWERED! IT WAS THE FRIGGIN EXOTIC ONES! My goodness now they're nearly useless in PvP and even more useless in pve.

2 RepliesThe real problem with pulse rifles is that it made the game really slow. Almost nobody would try to fight you 1v1. And the flinch it gives you even though you are getting shot from across the map is just ridiculous. Either way, I suggest that you should all use pulse rifles so Bungie fixes it on the next patch in a few weeks.

Op or over used?

3 RepliesWhat are the odds that everyone saying not to nerf them or disagreeing is currently maining a pulse rifle. There's at least more pulse rifles to choose from. So there's that. Oh and those absolutely perfect one of a kind autos and hand cannons that compete are exceptions, not rules.

Edited by Sosbanfawr: 11/19/2015 5:19:50 PMThe only thing wrong with Pulse Rifles is range now. In Pantheon today I was using The Last Extremity (scout rifle) and the other guy was using a Hawksaw down the right hand sniper hallway (looking from 'A') and I got outgunned even though as far as I can tell we both fired our first shot at the same time, and I was landing head shots, I assume he was too as I was dead in less than 3 full bursts. Pulse Rifles should simply not be able to land 3 bursts on the head at that range.

I dont get upset when i get killed by pulse rifle. They are all equally great. Dont matter what one you use, they all do the the job. Doesn't matter which one you choose. Red Death, Bad Juju, hawksaw, Nerwin's Mercy, PDX 45, Luymidlia. No one is better than the other. I get upset when i get killed by some other primary besides a pulse rifle.

1 ReplyYeah, I have to agree with you legendaries handcannons were never as good as the exotics ones. Pulse rifles need an over all range nerf they shouldn't have scout rifle range
-
Kinda false, yes pulse rifles are effective but more than half of the people I run into don't know how to use them. Yes they get a cheap kill at long range, but that's because I was scratching my balls, in a actual gun fight where I'm not -blam!-ing around I usually win. Just keep moving and they can't hit shit with them.

False

Let me give you an example of your statement..........machine gun is OP than a pistol. The hand cannon is made for short range combat and not for long range. We have scouts and pulse for long-mid range.

Edited by JSepe: 11/19/2015 5:06:36 PMWell nevermind read wrong lol

Does it even matter? Soon they'll just nerf Pulse Rifles. I use to say this jokingly, but they really are on their way to nerfing everything lol. Tbh, this meta bores me to death. I use to use HC's and pulse rifles back in the day, and it made for a much more exciting crucible experience. This IB is a perfect microcosm for the crucible right now... ITS BORING!

the best pulse rifles are top tier... handcannons are pretty bad... the odd auto rifle can out perform the pulse rifles (I think) a couple of scout rifles with full auto must be pretty powerful but have never had any of the new ones... pulse rifles are my least favourite primary weapons to use but they're the best I have :(

Edited by Ne0nK0ala: 11/19/2015 5:05:18 PMPulse rifles are only at the top because hand cannons are no longer there, they're not op though, not by a long shot. Tbh no primary is anymore. Honestly though I like using a scout now, with the hand cannon nerf you can actually use one well without the constant kick whenever a thorn hits you, which was always.
