Luna's and NF nerf: why?

Luna's and NF are meant to be high skill, high reward weapons, and they are. Hitting consistent headshots with 180s in a row isn't a walk in the park for those who haven't spent time practicing it. Luna's and NF are superb guns, but they are not overpowered and absolutely did not need rebalancing. They are the exact definition of what a pinnacle should be and yet you feel the need to nerf them? I don't know what the thought process was at all and I'm honestly super disappointed.

  • a weapon that breaks the ttk of a given archetype just for landing consecutive shots, which in the case of luna's howl is not difficult to do, is the definition of overpowered. it's a needed change for the overall health of the game and i look forward to trying out the changes in june. it's just a shame it took them 9 months to implement.

    • The high skill part is kinda stupid. If it's the Meta it most likely means very low skill.

    • When LH howl makes up nearly 11/12% of total crucible kills there is something wrong ! What is the point of having any other energy weapons? And it will add some diversity in crucible allowing for some other weapons to shine! This nerf won’t really affect skilled players as a skilled player will destroy with any -blam!-in thing!!

      • [quote]Luna's and NF are meant to be high skill, high reward weapons, and they are.[/quote] Sure lol high skill with barely no recoil/bloom and being able to outgun just past medium range WITH barely any damage fall off, due to MH, then sure it’s a “high skill” weapon.

        • By your logic then all the other pinnacle weapons should also be the best guns in their category but instead every other pinnacle weapon sucks ass except for maybe broadsword. But even broadsword isn't the best of its class, its like the 5th or 6th best. Stop trying to justify the LH and NF being op. They are 2 guns that were leaps and bounds better than every other gun in the game. They were 100% unfair and just because they were a grind to get is no excuse for them being so over powered. They needed nerfing and they needed it a long time ago. They should have been nerfed before novawarp was. This nerf won't even ruin them, they are still going to be good only now they will be more on par with all the other guns.

            If you want to win a gunfight and you aren’t going for consistent headshots you might need to get your head examined. Discounting weapons that don’t operate on headshots for their damage.
