Low rate of fire pulse rifles
Hey guys its been several works since the gun re balance has taken place. I feel these nerfs were seriously not fair. Especially to the spare change .25. I have tried every single pulse rifle in the game and scout rifles AND hand cannons,. I do not enjoy myself with any of them. Ultimately I resort back to using my spare change and accept the fact that I get extremely out classed by every single gun in the game. Before the nerf the spare change did 38 precision damage and now after the nerf it does 32 precision damage. The gun was basically smashed with a sledge hammer into little bits. As so did other low rate of fire pulse rifles. Not to mention the range and recoil were both severely nerfed. All I am asking is to make the gun viable again and let it be lethal with all head shots landing from 2 bursts. In order to do this the gun would have to be able to do 35 precision damage. Factoring in all the range and recoil nerfs this is the least Bungie could do. I absolutely love destiny and had tons and tons of fun before the big gun re balance. Now I can barely play a game of crucible without getting upset over the fact that Mida and Last word go to town on me.
Sincerly,
A very very sad guardian

I can relate even after all this time I still have a lot of love for my hopscotch pilgrim.

I was just starting to crush people with Lyudmila d. Then.....they killed it. If it can't two burst it is pointless because the other ones cdn 3 burst or 4 burst faster than a 3 burst from it. It makes no sense.

Still waiting for the return of the auto rifle era.

2 RepliesYear 1 Echo 33! Best high inpact pulse. Mine had maxed out stability and decent range. It was OP at almost every range! Miss it soooo much!

2 RepliesEdited by Forever277: 2/6/2016 3:06:44 AMSpare change, lyudmilaD and HerjaD, basically all the high impact pulses were just beat to shit. You never ever see them in pvp anymore because you just can't finish people off in less than 4 bursts (realistically) I have a beast roll of each of them sitting in the vault for whenever they readjust them again

Edited by michael: 2/6/2016 9:21:43 AMEver since they lost the capability to two burst, I've lost interest. Just simply because of how much longer it takes to fire three bursts out of a Spare Change than it does to fire three shots from the last word.

Try Oversoul Edict I've found it to be quite effective and catches a lot of people off guard.
-
They ruined my Dead Air 09F3 pulse, Scholar still best scout rifle though
-
Three Little Words : the two-burst is strong with this one.
-
I agree that the low rate of fire pulses were over-nerfed. Now my Lyudmila collects dust in my vault.

1 ReplyIn other pulse rifle news hopscotch pilgrim still tears shit up 😃
-
Yes I felt the same the day I downloaded ttk and saw my godroll hopscotch pilgrim go from the hands-down best pulse in the game to a five shot pos. While the messenger and other guns got to keep the stats. It's bullshit.
-
Totally agree. Have a Lyudmila-D with GHF, Perfect Balance and Braced Frame... Thought it would be a monster. Sorely disappointed. PDX-41 and -45 are still good!
-
Did you notice the apple of discord has a new vendor roll? Glass half full and full auto. 1 k stare is now a pve monster as well with triple tap and mulligan

3 RepliesAfter the pulse nerf, I tried a few guns and now only use TLW. I love this weapon, but I do miss my nirwens mercy :(
-
I'm sorry you can't 2 shot people. I'm glad pulse rifles got nerfed. Let's compromise. Low RoF pulse damage gets buffed to 35 and low RoF hand cannons damage gets buffed to 104.

3 RepliesSuper Pox-VLO, Three Little Words, and Hopscotch Pilgrim (before they changed its archetype)... They were ALL two burst killing machines... I kept Three Little Words... it looked like a big squirt-gun... it's still OK... but not what it used to be.

Edited by Lorentz Driver: 2/6/2016 4:02:38 AMIm pretty sure The Messenger and Spare Change were doing 36 or maybe 35 precision, so its not that big of a deal.

1 ReplyGrasp of malok? I love this gun, and I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate pulse rifles.

Most pulse rifles suck now. Hard to do those bounties.
