Iron Banner Fusion Rifle Fails. Thanks for nothing Wisnewski.

Another video of Fusion Rifle fails. These might not all have been kills before the last couple nerfs, but many of them would have been and the others would have at least done damage. There are shots that hit from well within shotgun OHK range that barely take half their health which is complete bullshit. Snipers have insane stability not only from across the map, but while quick scoping from 5 yards away. Shotguns are shotguns and will always be shotguns, they destroy everything within 10 yards. So where are Fusion Rifle's sweet spot? They used to rule the 15-20 yard range, but now they can't kill from there anymore. Snipers are effective at range and near. Fusion Rifles are now only effective within Shotgun range, but require charge time and more accuracy than snipers. Seriously what the -blam!-? The last patch was supposed to increase stability while you ADS. Instead it gave terrible muzzle kick. The Thesans I'm using have perfect stability and is the slowest charge Fusion Rifle so should be the most stable when you ADS. So why is the stability worse than before? And if you watch, the shots that start on the target, climb up and off. But the ones that lead just in front miss the front bolt and climb onto them. So how the -blam!- do you land them all when the spread from the kick is that wide? It's the [b]slowest[/b] charge. There should be no -blam!-ing kick and almost no spread. Argue if you want, but 3 months ago these were at least draws. Now shotguns win every single encounter within their OHK range and Fusions can no longer OHK outside Shotgun OHK range. And anyone who uses Fusion Rifles like I do know that these all would have been kills once and that some games they still are which is the most frustrating thing of all. There is no consistency to what is a kill and what isn't and at what range. This shit is just arbitrary. Again look at some of these shots that clearly land most bolts that do almost nothing. What do fellow Fusion users think?

  • On a crucible radio podcast he says they have an internal guy who melts with fusions and that the community just hasn't found their potential yet..... But I'm just wondering what this is. it has to be just a very specific roll on a certain fusion rifle type. Ik they don't want to tell everyone because then the fun factor for the people who know that secrete perfect roll is spoiled but I do feel that at this point with 99% of the community using other secondary's they need to say what it is and just let people see how powerful they are because as of now they are just disappointing to use personally.
