Wow, Bungie is really trying to kill y1 Exotics off aren't they. I know why to, it's because they hope 2 will look like y1 did. News flash Bungie! It's not going to happen you fun killer.

The vanguard says to destroy this weapon at first sight. I can't say I really disagree with them.

Edited by Dinorush: 2/23/2017 5:34:43 PMThe archetype [i]did[/i] get a buff in that one pulse buff patch, but you're right, Red Death and the rest of that archetype are pretty bad right now

Can't forget when it got the hopscotch treatment and switched archetypes

Edited by chickengoujohn93: 2/23/2017 5:34:21 PMRed Death became a 14 Impact (medium) Pulse Rifle waaaayyy before TTK, it actually happened before The Dark Below in this patch here [url]https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/12433/7_Destiny-Update---12012014[/url]. The rate fire was increased and the impact decreased, however, a bug occurred that displayed the impact incorrectly following the change. More importantly it had no weighting in game, just a mere visual error on the stat bar. [i][b]During the glory days of Red Death following the "Great Pulse Rifle buff of 2015" it was a medium impact Pulse Rifle[/b][/i], an archetype which could also two-burst, like the iconic 55A-Allfate. Red Death was even more reliable to two-burst kills thanks to [b]Aggressive Ballistics[/b]. The visual bug as mentioned in paragraph one was corrected in the TTK pre-update here [u]https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/13474/7_Destiny-Update---09082015[/u]. The 14 Impact medium archetype also received a 2.5% damage nerf meaning it could not two-burst reliably post-TTK. The final nail in the coffin was when it received that 8% damage nerf in the SRL patch.

The red death is the new bad juju.
-
Or rather red death is the new old bad juju when it was bad.
-
True. I remember my first exotic from vault of glass. I just got the bad juju. I was so excited. I them went on a patrol and it took 3 clips of head shots to kill a level 2 dreg. What garbage it was.

-
HCR was only nerfed on clever dragon/Grasp archetypes and buffed on all other pulses, autos, scouts, handcannons
-
Don't forget machine guns ,I'm still shocked I've had this bretomarts stand with HCR for a little bit under a year now and they're just now getting to buffing a perk that wasn't working correctly on a weapon how do you take that long to fix a mistake smh pitiful.
-
Basically the same crap they've done to all the weapons.
-
-
Wow when you get all these facts in a row you realize how bad it's gotten. Poor Red Death; I remember what a monster it was during Dark Below and House of Wolves.
-
back when it could (arguably) go toe to toe with pre nerf thorn
-
Yeah arguably lol
-
Thanks Bungie...
-
-
-
Damn straight! It's ridiculous how stripped that gun is now...either buff it ir rename it Red fluffy pillow.
-
Let's Make Red Death great again.
