Almost All PvP Balance Issues since Year 1 Stem from One Problem

Weak primary weapons. Bungie you want to balance the crucible? Make primary weapons consistent and fast-killing again. The game was made for them to kill fast, and the reason all these abilities and special weapons seem OP now is because you have nerfed all the strong primaries that were supposed to compete with them. As long as primaries are weak everything else will always seem too powerful. The most obvious example of this today is NLB, at one point a joke of a weapon but now considered one of the strongest weapons in pvp. Is it unbalanced in pvp's current situation? Maybe... but it doesnt need a nerf- primaries need a buff. Even if you nerf NLB, as long as primaries are weak, there will always be something else that seems OP. Destiny was not designed for primaries to take a full second to take someone down. Look back at Year One and see how good the balance between primary and special weapons was- even with shot package shotguns and high aim assist snipers with no flinch. I'm not saying year 1 was perfect- but at least the game played like it was supposed to.
