Bungie, by nerfing Luna’s/NF, you are just pushing away more of your committed player base.

I can understand the change to Mag howl damage, but changing to a 150? You’re making a big mistake and I guarantee this will be the last straw for a lot of dedicated players, myself included who worked their butt off to get their NF. This change in particular is crapping on ALL console players where bloom on HC’s is a big issue. Bad, bad move.

  • Elton John is apparently renaming one of his songs to commemorate this Nerf. Instead of “candle in the wind” the new title is “Lunas in the bin”. 😂😂😂

  • If all you see in crucible is luna, NF and Recluse then they need looking at. While they are at it. There is too much heavy in Power Ammo and there needs to be better matchmaking. Last night in Iron Banner I played with a bunch of solos against a full fireteam of 6. One of whom stood in a pulse grenade without taking any damage. They beat us 50 - 100. In the next match, instead of finding new players they put us against the same team. Everyone on my team quit.

    • Bloom isn’t even on lunas/nf just on thorn/tlw. And after weeks of wanting lunas/nf nerfed y’all all of a sudden dont like or want the nerf?

      • After working so hard on my Luna and all the time I'm spending right now to grind for the NF this news is no sense to me. [u]They're called pinnacle weapons for a reason, they have to be the best[/u]! You need skills and A LOT OF GRINDING to get them so good job Bungie, you just spat on our faces!! Now were matches unfair when you get against a full team of LH or NF? Yes, most of the time but nerfing is never the way (I think the same about PvE stuff too). [u]Why don't they buff other weapons that can put a fight with pinnacles[/u]? [b]Why don't they create more competitive playlist (With at least one where pinnacles are banned)[/b]? Or, why don't bungie make it so these weapon are more accessible (like very hard quests that don't require legend rank. For ex: 500 HC kills, 200 supers, 3 valor rank reset, 2100 glory points etc) 'cause let's be honest, the problem is just this: People complain because they didn't mange to get these weapons. On second thought, some people would complain anyway, even if they have these weapons themselves 'cause some skills are required to use 'em, you need to land those crits (and I met people with Luna and NF that were missing all shots. Those are the ones who bought them or used exploits). I'm close to my Warefarer badge so as soon as I get it I'm simply done with this game. Not because of the nerf itself, but for the whole mess pvp and the balancing system are in general.

        • I don’t like the changes either but if you read they will retain the same recoil and animation that they have now. Making them the only none 180 with the “precision” recoil pattern which is straight up and down with minimum recoil and animation. I think the move to 150 is fine the nerf to the mag perk is too much though. They should have just change the perk to do 1 extra damage bullet after 3 consecutive precision hits. Forcing you to get a 3 hit kill before “maybe” getting a 2 hit kill.

          • Don't have LH/NF and not good enough to get them, and do not agree with the nerf but the reality is that any player who genuinely grinded for these weapons will still destroy pvp trash like me without them. I think it is disgusting that they create a great pinnacle weapon and then destroy it but a good PVP player will still be good despite the weapon

            • I've had Luna's since it came available. Barely used it because I don't find 180s very appealing +everyone uses it and I don't wanna be a meta slave. And yes, I do think this nerf was necessary for the health of the game. So many guns yet people use only one loadout 24/7. Kinda sad.

                Yet more pvp related whining, it never stops. There really aren't that many dedicated D2 PvP players so no great loss if a few people leave. In fact, I'll hold the door open for you on the way out...none of you will be missed... Edit - I hope you all got your money's worth from the carries you paid for btw, hahahaha

                  • I don’t see why you’d quit. In D1 no one complained about palindrome and eyasluna being a three tap because they had a balanced skill gap. All of the sudden a 180 three tap hand cannon is getting nerfed and it’s the end of the world? Lol time for you to practice with a hand cannon that actually has recoil

                    • If you think about it, this will make the Luna/NF not special anymore, you could even say that it isnt a pinnacle. The Time To Kill is the same as other 150RPM Handcannons, u just require 2crit 1body to kill instead of 3crit.This wont really make a difference, because people that are good enough to earn Luna/NF are probably good enough to 3crit anyways, meaning the perk is pretty useless

                      • Do you realize it will still keep same recoil, it will be a 3 crit kill in pvp with no howl perk needed? I dont even see this as a nerf. Mark my words if they keep same recoil and changes they will be stronger.

                            I have luna and honestly im glad its getting nerfed. I believe those guns do more harm in the crucible than good (mainly not forgotten). Nf/luna outclasses all of the other pinnacle weapons and pretty much all other primaries in the game. Its a well deserved nerf/adjustment imo. Its not so bad though a 150 being able to 3 tap is still pretty great. Your shots will just need to be paced alot more. I do think bloom needs to be lowered a little for 140s, its a bit much currently.

                            • The committed player base will stay and be fine. They will stomp with another gun. You know who this balance patch will drive away? The lazy easy-moders. Yes, that's right. It's the players that are so lazy that they will grind their ass off, just so they don't have to make any effort in their future pvp. Why do you think there was such a thriving industry for the recoveries and carries? The commited player base would never sustain a single person playing the game for them. It sounds like a total contradiction, and is very hard to explain, but it's true. They saw the Luna's grind as the path of least resistance, as opposed to actually training and improving. Destiny is completely swarming with these people - which explains the 4 stacks with spectral spam in Quickplay. All the Luna's players seem to forget that it will still be strong. The 150 rpm cannons need 2 crit, 2 body to reach optimal ttk. Mag howl will still give you a 3 tap if you get the first 2 crits. It is staying as precision hc, so it will still be a laser. The recoil, aim assist and bloom aren't changing. It is still "unconditionally" better than all the other hc's (a few guns have conditionally faster ttk, only after already winning one engagement and proccing kill clip et al.)

                            • I honestly agree. the effort it is to get the gun is crazy. i can respect the nerf to mag howl but the 180 to 150 is straight up dumb. just thinking ikalos, trust, and many other hand cannons will just replace it so why change the fire rate. the gun is so hard to get in the first place to get nerfed that hard just runes the gun and everything people chased for about it. if left at a 180 fire rate (in my opinion) would allow the gun to still survive but also allow other weapon options to contend with it. the fire rate nerf is just to excessive when the potential two tap is gone. mag howl force a potential three tap is nice but with last word, malfeasance , and ace of spades floating around it will be extremely be outclassed with the fire rate nerf. But that just my thoughts. the gun is stupid hard to obtain already and for those that put in the time (me included) this is honestly infuriating to get shafted so hard. yes i understand pve weapons get nerfed aswell as pvp weapons or cause of pvp but most of the time with few exceptions those weapons are easier obtained unlike lunas when it can take weeks or even months to obtain based on individual skill. its just not right. some may not agree but this is just my thoughts on the matter.

                              • Good, let the sweats who only can play with the Luna’s leave the game. It’s time for a different meta and perhaps a bit more variety. I own a luna’s myself and it’s getting boring now after 7 months having the same stupid meta.

                                • As a player who has not forgotten, I hardly ever use it in crucible. It's mostly an environment weapon for me for the big bulky bosses. I take it in crucible only against other people who are using not forgotten. I have a god roll service revolver that I enjoy using in crucible. Also I can out shoot a luna with that service revolver. Most of it is about playing smart and working angles. The gun is only good if you can use it.

                                  • I support this change. Push aside your feelings for a second and look at the weapon(s). Nothing competes with them. I have multiple comp accounts and using ONLY NF/Lunas gets repetitive and stale. I do it because I enjoy helping my friends and clan mates. I’ve been to multiple threads and they have said varying things like ace of spades, 390 pulse, blast furnace, Last Word, thorn, recluse, Mida, and 110 hc’s will be king... seems like there is a lot variety there. Much more than what we have now.
