Volatile rounds feel significantly worse on all weapons after recent hotfix.
1 second per activation is way too long and gyrfalcons feels like -blam!- as you don’t regain invis 8/10 times.
Please shorten the volatile cooldown.

it's about a single second ... the only thing this Fixed did, (I can't call it a nerf) is to adjust that LMG ... I'm only a hunter player, and it seemed ridiculous what that LMG could do with Volatile ... . But the game style remained the same, always invisible, volatile clear good. it still remains a very good build for day one raid

52 RepliesEdited by SirMang: 1/19/2023 12:10:03 AMHad to figure something was coming with how broken the retrofit escapade was with volatile rounds. BTW you can blame content creators for this change for how many videos they put forth showing off the retrofit and how broken its DPS was prior to the change.

Customers were having fun. Hotfix! Artifact bugged? API broken? They get to it when they feel like it. It’s astounding how accurate the above statements are.

3 RepliesThey need to up the volatile explosion to every 0.5 seconds. Having it proc every 1.0 seconds killed the weapon it puts it back down to the bottom of the pack for heavy weapon DPS. It definitely needed a rework but not this much.
-
28 RepliesIt’s literally one damn second. God forbid you can’t use volatile for a whole second Anyone who’s complaining about this just shows y’all used the exotic and LMG as a crutch. I just did all 6 GMs and used gyrfalcons on 4 of them. Didn’t notice the nerf at all.
-
You're complaining about 1 extra second.....wow
-
They fixed a bug! IT WAS AN UNINTENDED BUG!!! Hence, the bug was fixed. Go cry about blue engrams…. Oh. Looks like you’re going to need to warm up that next nerf to liners coming next season.
-
4 RepliesYes, tell Aztecross, he did a video on how bust it was as it was a rare known issue.... and then they nerfed it

14 RepliesI'm glad I never fully crafted the new machine gun lol. Was about to but now I'll pass

1 ReplyYeah I noticed immediately after playing. You just have to adjust now knowing ok the rounds are not nearly instantly going to proc like before, but it can be inconsistent.
-
1 ReplyWell it was fun while it lasted time to go back to arc 😢
-
It needed a nerf anyway. I’ve been demolishing everything with volatile rounds since the season it came out. It’s so easy to maintain it’s up time and it got easy for hunters.
-
1 ReplyThat’s what bungie wants you to feel, so you’re motivated to pay for the new supers and abilities in a few weeks
-
6 RepliesHave they rooned the gyrfalcons? That exotic turned this season into season of the void 4.0. For hunters...
-
There were so many sources of invis. Smoke bomb, gamblers dodge and finishers. After abusing volatile rounds in gambit, I can assure I had my volatile rounds were up all the time. I see why they got nerfed for the sake of Gambit.

11 RepliesSo everyone suffer because of hunters... again.

7 RepliesEdited by Albin0: 1/19/2023 12:08:30 PMThe fix reduced the rate volatile procs on a single target under sustained fire, i.e. when shooting a high health enemy, meaning volatile still works exactly the same when used for add clear on lower health enemies. The internal cool down doesn’t keep you from spreading volatile amongst multiple targets in quick succession. Yeah retrofit was fun but it wasn’t working as intended and was literally breaking encounters and volatile/gyrefalcon is still a strong option for easy add clear and survival through invis, there’s still plenty of good dps options to use along side it

6 RepliesEdited by Zoidberg: 1/18/2023 11:48:11 PMIf hunters get something fun, it just gets nerfed. Just switch to the never nerf titans. It's much better over there.
-
They nerfed them because they said, they’re going to make it a perk like voltshot, incandescence
-
1 ReplyEdited by PhenoZero: 1/19/2023 4:10:26 PMThe only thing that changed is that now it doesn't destroy raid encounters/bosses... Still a valid and one of the strongest builds in the game for all activities and you can be perma invis(and always proc volatile)like before.

Edited by The Hermit IX: 1/19/2023 2:07:04 PMI was never a fan of them. They’re ok but not game changing. Everyone knew they were bugged after a crafted legendary LMG was putting out ridiculously high DPS. So they fixed the bug and it’s exactly why I didn’t waste crafting materials to use it for one hot minute.

1 ReplyStylish execution has a cool down. You need to slow down your killing Jim-Bob
-
They can remove it atp and remove that exotic too.
-
5 RepliesSo nerf was made because of gyrfalcon. Unfortunately this means controlled demolition for Defender got hit too.
-
5 RepliesProbably because it was op af on hunters with the new lmg
