June Update - How you broke Sunsingers.
It's like Bungie didn't understand what people's real complaint was. It had nothing to do with Firebolt, it was Viking Funeral in conjunction with Firebolt. Their fix of Viking Funeral was enough to fix the problem.
Firebolt works exactly the same as Arcbolt, and most would agree Arcbolt is far from super deadly. So there was absolutely no reason to break Firebolt with Viking Funeral gone.
Honestly, what pisses me off more than anything, is the phrase, "Sunsingers, while not out performing other players..." Yeah, was running into 3 Sunsingers annoying, you bet it could be. But the point is that in one on one engagements they did exactly the same on average to other Classes (which Bungie admitted by saying this). They essentially broke a Subclass because they were annoying to fight in groups.
Well, I find it annoying to fight 3 Strikers with Armamentarium and Lightning Grenades. Sure, statistically they probably aren't doing any better or worse than any other Subclass, but I'm annoyed and frustrated so I demand you nerf their Grenades.
And what are you thinking with Flame Shield? You already screwed with it and weakened it. In PvP, the only way I was winning Melee engagements is if I hit first. Even with my Melee, if I hit second, I lost. You had already fixed the problem, this new tweak has no purpose except to now make me lose sometimes even when I hit first (which is garbage).
Bungie, you're screwing up your own game. The game has felt more balanced since the April update than it ever had (everyone was saying so, go look). For the first time, I didn't care what build anyone was using. I knew that if I was better, I would win, end of story. And you've just ruined that for no reason.
Realize you made a mistake and fix it. Put at least Firebolt and Flame Shield to how they were before the June update. I haven't been this pissed since Crota's End launched, and I'm not alone. If you want people here to play Destiny 2, stop screwing up.
Edit: I play all 3 Classes, and do not agree with most of the nerfs that they have suffered after this update. But my main character since Day 1 has been a Warlock (the same Warlock I play today). So my main concern is first and foremost with them. That said, it would go a long way with everyone if you actually setup some kind of voting system players could use before you make these sweeping changes. If you honestly care about the people playing your game (and I don't really think you do, but prove me wrong), I don't think this would be hard to implement.
