Let me preface this by saying I am no top tier player, but I do play a lot of crucible (mainly 6v6 bc I don't want to get an aneurism trying to sweat hard in competitive). Everyone knows PvP has been neglected but when Bungie said they put together a PvP strike team I was skeptical. Through the updates I gradually gained confidence in PvP again. Things seemed to be getting better with a focus on your primary and pulling back on the ability spam. When I saw the trailer for prismatic the first thing I thought of was PvP and how unbalanced it would be. I figured hunters and maybe warlocks would top the charts considering the ease of ability use. Took some time off after the brave weapons grind to move and just logged in about a week ago. I haven't purchased TFS, but had finally put together my rig again and wanted to log in and see how PvP felt. After a few hours of crucible, everything the strike team had been working on felt like it was non existent. Prismatic was everything I thought it would be. Hunters with smokes, strand copies, and swarm nades. I can't turn a corner without running into a hunter dodging and pulling off some Houdini trick on me. Every single encounter of every single game. I'm a titan main and I feel so underwhelmed compared to the other classes. I don't even have a one and done offensive unless I use thundercrash. But that puts me in close range of the enemy and everyone knows titans don't live up to their CQC melee capability...at least in PvP. There's burning maul but I have to use an exotic to do it. And the new titan void axe looks cool but the animation is so long, I see my teammates getting shot down before they finish throwing their axes. Idk, I'm really glad prismatic has been received positively and it's opened up so much more gameplay capability and buildcrafting for PvE, but I can't help but see how much it has regressed the PvP playlist. And it's only amplified because I main the more underwhelming of the three classes. I don't play much PvE, and log in infrequently now to play a few matches of crucible. Bungie needed to deliver and they did, even if it meant throwing PvP back into the backburner to make it happen. I've been playing since D1 and have gotten every DLC until now. Maybe I'll get it, but then I'd just be spending money on a system I probably won't enjoy because I don't really play PvE. Either way, I understand Bungie. I understand.
