With Loreley now only having x1 restoration, all I can say is that it was fun while it lasted. It’s still very useful, but there is a slight issue I continue to see with nerfing certain exotics.
Loreley was at the point of being almost broken in PvE and being very useful in PvP. When I used Touch of Malice, I almost could never die with it on. I’d always get healed when brough to critical health. I couldnt wipe with my teammates with the helmet on unless I jumped off a cliff, because I would too quickly for even some major bosses could kill me.
However, where is the nerf to Raiju’s harness? THAT exotic is broken in PvP and very useful in PvE. But yet we see that it receives no such nerf. Even though there is a higher necessity to fix PvP issues rather than PvE ones IMO. Raiju’s harness simply allows a hunter to double their arc staff super and block / dodge at no cost to them. It’s broken. Yet Titans receive the nerf to THEIR exotic? Loreley helped everyone and was mildly annoying in PvP. Raiju’s harness is BROKEN in PvP and doesn’t really help anyone that much in PvE.
Bungie needs to prioritize which exotics they nerf better. PvP issues should be addressed first because they are simply more infuriating to players.

Loreley trivialised PvE and was most definitely too strong for it. It became the new self res warlock. Bad players changed to the Loreley build in order to not die in content they’d usually struggle in. It offered no team synergy (apart from not dying - something all other classes need to do anyway) and was just too powerful. People having to remove the helmet so their team can wipe sums it up. PvP is PvP. Loreley was strong and frustrating but not more so than overshield spam, invis etc. There are bigger issues for PvP than balance at the moment and I truly feel they adjusted it there because it did need it but the PvE nerf came first and they just did this nerf at the same time. I’m regards to Raiju - I see hardly the same people using it compared to Loreley and the benefit only comes during super - that’s once per game, maybe twice. Yes it will likely be adjusted if deemed too strong but it’s overall effect and usage is less.
