A 40% nerf to Witherhoard seriously!?!?
I really don't like the Div nerf, But Ghorn doesn't need less damage and especially Witherhoard I'm just furious about this one!! I'm out on this nonsense, I returned to the game after leaving bc Shadow Keep changes(nerfs) and now I'm leaving again bc NERFS as well as no meaningful changes to the game that go in the right direction. Sick of anything fun or good being trashed. You cant just tank every exotic that people enjoy using bc it's used "too much"!! That counter productive at best, And shotty if we're being honest. Talented weapons design teams make new things that compete rather than nerfing anything that exceeds mediocre. Which seems to be the Bungie mission statement "Nerf them into mediocrity if they're performing in any fun way!". We don't need artificial raid boss difficulty in the form of less damage by our weapons, All that does is make the game more grindy which it 1000% DOES NOT NEED. You guys need to step it up or the player base is gonna be gone completely outside the sycophants that think you do no wrong, Their will be plenty commenting here I'm sure but know they're just contrarians, Not the majority of the base you need to keep this game viable. The great game is dying a tragic death due to mediocrity, We don't need more of that. Sorry if this seems harsh, I don't mean disrespect to all the people who work hard, Just need a new approach before the game gets worse.
Edit: Apparently I may be wrong as it says direct hits will be unchanged, Guess we'll see next week if it dies same damage per shot over time.

So yeah your post is about all of the exotic nerfs basically. Yeah they base it on the usage of certain exotics. People who are talking about pulse rifles and sidearms who claim these archetypes are constantly being used in PvP you guys need to think about the fact bungie does not want to Nerf archetype weapons like pulse rifles and sidearms because it would impact PVE. I don't care how many times bungees going to say that they can Nerf certain stuff and it won't impact PVE after they nerfed stasis stasis is terrible in PVE it's not as powerful as it was at the beginning of beyond light that's for sure in terms of player versus environment. So the idea that archetype weapons should not be touched should be enough reason PvP should be a separate game because there are so many changes that needs to be done to PVP to make PVP more balanced, and the issue is it would impact PVE in a really bad way weapons will be less powerful in PVE. This is why I propose that at least abilities should be nerfed because think about it look how many times you do a trials match or you do a regular PVP activity look how many times they constantly use abilities they basically ability spam they don't use their weapons they only use abilities. Remember in destiny 1 it wasn't like that in destiny 1 it was about who was the fastest to draw their weapon and kill the enemy just like how it is in call of duty it's the exact same way in call of duty people don't know rely on grenades they rely on their weapons! Even the best PVP players out there like true vanguard for example he doesn't rely on his abilities he relies on his weapons that's why he goes flawless every week.. example about a year or 2 years ago true vanguard made a video where he was doing a private match with some kid and another adult, and they were constantly relying on abilities. True vanguard even said in a video to those two players like why can't you guys just use weapons if you're constantly relying on abilities how can you call yourself a destiny player you should be doing both abilities and weapons use everything in your arsenal. basic common sense. So basically we got need to think about the fact that it's not about the usage it's not about the exotics it's about what Bungie favorites because look how many times shotguns were viewed as being incredibly unbalanced and PVP and Bungie never nerfed it you know why because they favorite shotguns just like how bungee would never Nerf jotunn... Think about it that particular fusion rifle toaster exotic it's the most used exotic and trials but it was never nerfed but they Nerf all their stuff like our taking grenade launcher our gala horn but they're not going to Nerf something that clearly is their favorite and they don't want it to be bad. Just like when you look on bungees twitch stream whenever they play PVP what they use the most the toaster exotic and shotguns.

Yeah, we know. "Wah wah wah my broken crutch was nerfed, I can't play without my broken crutch"

So which Utuber do you watch that gave you your opinion?

7 RepliesI bet saltygriper complained about it.

14 RepliesDont forget recombination is also getting nerf'd. Going to 100% down from 113%. Even though they worded it as "improved consistency". Bold faced lies like the TWAB that introduced AE.
-
2 RepliesThe hoard nerf wouldn't be so bad if they slightly sped up its passive reload when stoad (I'm sure that's not how that word is spelt but whatever).
-
5 RepliesI wonder if the catalyst didn't require 100 PvP kills if the weapon would be used all that much in PvP.

18 RepliesCan you blame Bungie??? Witherhoard was literally the most used exotic this season and last season people constantly used it in trials. You don't want exotics to be nerfed stop using the same loadout every time you play change up your load out that's the whole mindset of these nerves they want to Nerf stuff that players constantly use because they want players to use different stuff... I'm literally paraphrasing deej from 2016 taken King footage when they showed us the gameplay for supremacy he explained their mindset why they Nerf stuff it's based on how many times something is used they want players to believe in loadout diversity not to be a lazy player

1 ReplyIf it was a big issue in pvp they should have just nerfed it for the pvp side. Don't think anyone complained about it in pve.
-
2 RepliesIf I didn't know any better, I'd say Bungie is TRYING to make people quit playing.
-
This is one of the reasons why I uninstalled the game a while ago. Got tired of the nerfs.
-
Bro, PARAGRAPHS ... anyways, I've learned to never like anything in this game because eventually, enough people will whine about it and it'll get nerfed. Then, there are circumstances like this where Bungie makes you scratch your head ... just stop caring and you'll be fine.

3 RepliesI wish they would have just removed PvP instead...

16 RepliesYou can thank the clowns using it in pvp. Welp it was fun while it lasted.
-
1 ReplyBye bye, take all the no skill weapons with ya, lol…
-
I'm pretty sure they didn't nerf Witherhoard because it was used to much - they nerfed it because of the amount of damage it would add to your DPS passively while allowing you to DPS with another weapon. Same reason they nerfed Anarchy. DoT weapons is always tricky to balance.
-
13 RepliesYou do realise its a nerf to the ground version (portal) only. Just direct impact for the full 10 second duration in PvE...AKA the stronger version.
-
they nerfed it because of the lag 😂
-
2 Repliesgames in the shitter and bungie just pulled the chain lol
-
6 RepliesDivinity needed a nerf and frankly, it got off light. Also stating that anyone that is commenting here (presumably you mean disagreeing with you) is just a contrarian and not the majority of the player base is hilarious. Holding different opinions than you isn't being a contrarian and you don't have a single clue what the majority of the base wants. Witherhoard will still be very good and the Ghorn change isn't going to break that either. Neither is being "nerfed into mediocrity."

2 RepliesPvP crybabies ruin everything remotely good or fun in this game. Nothing new here

I am so glad they finally nerfed witherhoard , now I can do my lmg bounty in strikes without some jerk melting everything with witherhoard before it spawns I think they need to look at Stasis, Chain Reaction,Incandescent and Voltshot next, nerf anything that actually kills things [spoiler]Satire+Sarcasm[/spoiler] -
5 Repliesgood. -blam!- witherhoard on control

1 ReplyEdited by MaDDoG_1724RKOs: 12/3/2022 5:25:45 AMDo I hate nerfs? Yes. Do I hate skilless witherhoard puddles on control points in PVP? Yes. Do I like using it against bosses in PVE in the right scenario? Of course yes. They should have just nerfed it in PVP, plain and simple. But, Bungie could F up their own wet dream about whatever next socially woke cause they're going to make an emblem for so no surprises here.

It could’ve been [i]way[/i] worse. All that’s happening is the ‘puddle on ground’ duration has been reduced by 3s. Damage (numbers) unchanged, direct hits (inc direct hit duration) is unchanged. I suppose overall dps will take a hit but if you direct hit till be exactly the same as it is now.

Oh well life goes on ….just put it on and have some fun with it like I am 🤷🏼♂️😂
