Also rifles are so weak in PvE and PvP so nobody really uses them anymore. You cannot speak of a Buff because auto rifles have a very short life being buffed before then nerfed again completely.
right now they're barely any good for regular level strikes anything higher like hero or legend God forbid master and they are completely useless. it would seem hand cannons are meta not just in PvP but PVE too.
even in PvP the 10 most used weapons consist of shotguns and handguns with the exception of one or two of the weapons. PvP all we have these days is ridiculously fast and cannons and one shot shotguns with ridiculous range.
so in conclusion because auto rifles don't really have a place anymore in general use what is the point in having them in the game they will never receive A buff long enough to stick that would make them a good weapon to using PvE and the advancing levels. if you're not going to make them a decent weapon Bungie you may as well remove them from the game it's all hand cannons and shotguns anyway just like destiny 1 PvP used to be

I only use 2 auto rifles now and that's forward path and gnawing hunger. I have some really good rolls of rapid frames but the damage doesn't put out enough. This whole HC meta needs to die and a different gun needs to be meta. Shotguns only way to out play them is by bring in bigger maps that way scouts, pulse, and snipers can come into play.

I have a pve godroll gnawing hunger and now looking forward a subsistance/trench acrtic haze, those two are beasts

720s are amazing. It's a shame there's only like two relevant ones (one in two weeks). Great archetype with literally no rep whatsoever

9 RepliesLast few weeks in trials its HC’s by 10* over the second besst primary. Yet, people say its balanced. Hc with lie/adored/arby. Those are ur options.

I particularly like Auto Rifles. They could be better but with good perks they are useful. Some are particularly good while others are awful but as a whole Autos deserve a chance at least as ad clearers.

Edited by GrifterDeMier01: 1/27/2021 5:31:59 AMThey are still good just not as good as before. It sucks being stuck in a hand cannon shotgun meta yet again but bungie is full of morons that can’t program and has no clue how to properly balance PvP which is why they just bounce around between purposefully made metas. It much easier than properly play testing and balancing the game.

I wouldn't say they are weak in pve at all, hunger still slaps, suros is great, forward path, monte carlo etc all good.

In pvp everything but 600s could use a buff imo, but pve they’re good

2 RepliesEdited by Sonnabirk: 1/26/2021 9:22:40 AMYou need to find the right drop with good stats, I have Rampage on my gnawing hunger with a Rampage mod to make Rampage last longer. And then *cough you can equip actium war rig *cough, lol you didn't hear this from me but all those combine melts pretty good. Now I just gotta find a replacement after next season... But I might experiment with other things next season, we will see. :) It sort of makes my Titan to a beast in pvp but pve also, I like to run subclass with arc damage... Forward Path is also good imo but I don't have a good roll for that one, wish I had. It was hard to farm for that weapon I only got one drop a few seasons ago... But you also have Suros Regime, just got the catalyst yesterday for it so I might try that one out aswell..
