Trace rifle bs in momentum control

How is a trace rifle with no impact better than scouts, AR, high impact pulses, aggressive frame hand cannons. How does that make sense that a gun that does 5 hits of 52 to the head (vigilance wing) doesn’t win a gun fight at pulse ranges. But the trace rifle can cross map ppl in blink of an eye. Talk about broken

  • It’s a bit of a mystery that’s for sure. I would’ve thought everyone would complain about high impact handcannons or scout rifles. Trace rifles being OP? What the heck? LOL

  • Well, they're special weapons, for starters. They SHOULD have more damage output. And guessing that this is for Momentum... It's not supposed to be a serious gamemode. You have summoned me.

  • Well I would hope a special weapon could outperform primaries. Would be pathetic if they couldn't, especially when every trace rifle is an exotic.

    Because momentum is for fun. [spoiler]Also, traces are treated like ARs (in the code) so they technically hit you multiple times over and over again. Plus, they fire at 1000 rpm. Tl;dr, it’s a really fast shooting and stable ar[/spoiler]

  • Momentum is literally the only activity in Destiny 2 where trace rifles have any effective use. We get that PvP variant so rarely that throwing it in as catalyst fuel is fine.
