I've been here since the release of Crota. I remember the Thorn and its 2 headshot ways. But now we have another "Thorn" situaltion. It took Bungie and entire few months to fix it and i hope it isn't the same for the the Doctrine of Passing. Granted, I don't have it, but the people who do have it are ruling the Crucible right now. So personally, I think it should be nerfed and others are probrably saying the same thing.
-
If it can melt a mida from long range yes...
-
i dont think it needs a nerf. buff pulses back to what they were a couple months ago and increase HC range very slightly. thats my 2 cents. [spoiler]fusion rifles may need a nerf though. got killed by one the other day, so...you know...[/spoiler]
-
No it just covers the range which a sniper can't. Close is covered by Doctrine and melee The rest is sniper. Docrine is only good in this meta. In the HoW it would get destroyed as peope liked shottys
-
Scout rifles and pulse rifles can easily kill someone with DoP at range. If u r at close range (if u have any concept of strategy u won't be) u will lose 95% of the time
-
If you have good aim it's good. Simple strafe dodges shots pretty easily. Shit honestly I've crouch strafed and melted people[spoiler]somehow they didn't see a crouch strafe coming xD[/spoiler]
-
Doctrine isn't OP, I think if handcannon got a buff at damage, accuracy and aim assist things would be fair. buff pulse rifle range too in case of pulse rifles becoming irrelevant.
-
Its not OP. I use it and I used to use thorn. Thorn was OP. Last word was OP, doctrine is not. It is easily out played and countered. People need to stop asking for nerfs. Hand cannons need an accuracy buff and ammo reserve increase, pulse rifles are still fine. I can wreak havoc in crucible with any of the 4 weapons, unlike in year one 1 where I couldn't use an auto rifle, and occasionally a pulse. This Meta has the largest variety of weapon I have ever seen/been killed by. Stop calling for nerfs
-
How about instead of nerfing things we start buffing other things. Pretty much all of the primary gun types suck except for scout rifles and high rate of fire autos. We should buff hand cannons and pulse rifles Back to when they were good and then you will be able to compete with doctrine
-
The gun isn't op. I haven't had a problem with them.
-
You're op bby
-
It's the real SWAG REGIME 2.0. :P
-
Nope, I can outgun a doctrine using my HC4 Uffern handcannon
-
Yeh doctrine is op, it's as strong as thorn is atm and probably stronger then tlw and mida .
-
Yeah fusion rifles are pretty damn op
-
Nope. It's fine. You can out gun it with TLW at close range and MIDA at far.
-
I'd prefer to go against DoP than year 1 Thorn
-
If this weapon causes cries for a nerf then Destiny is well balanced. The gun itself has the perks that a should come with a autorifle. Close to medium combat. Mida kills it in a rangefight and TLW/sidearm very-closecombat.
-
Stfu.
-
-
It's not. Awesome and very fun in pvp and pve. Has a lot of kick even with the stable perks. Idk why everyone want to nerf everything....just stfu and carry on.....that is all.
-
From the salt in the forums it seems it's becoming another Hopscotch Pilgrim...
-
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
No. Give me two at once I'll still be pretty bad.
-
It's not OP. I use it as my main weapon and I have good games where I take a massive shit on kids, then there's games where the tables are turned. It's not OP, it's how you play and if you're good enough to compete with the players on the other team
-
No, not OP. You should hold judgment on a weapon until you've used it. I would happily go back to the days of Thorn. Red Death outgunned it and shotgunners were easy to mow down. Snipers were rarely used. Good times.
-
Not OP but top tier without a doubt .
