Pulse rifles and other weapons
I’m all for making changes in the sand box from time to time but since the Echo 1 released pulse rifles have dominated the PvP sand box.
Elsie’s rifle
Bygones
Aisha’s care
Graviton lance
Revision zero
No time to explain
These pulse rifle’s have a very quick TTK with no real draw backs. It’s almost like we are back in the peak bow meta of peak shooting with “free walls”.
(Why is this a recurring issue that long range weapons get too far out of line and seem to get a “free walls” of some aspect in the PvP?)
This is not to say some other outliers need some looking into. One thing for sure is that Bungie talked about improving all the weapons in PVP to the same point as some of the outliers. Are we getting 3% buff’s on all the other weapons in the game?

I see more HC than pulse. Guess I'm just lucky.

3 RepliesSome of those have poor handling or target acquisition. Also, that’s a wide range of pulses. You are also dismissing the anti-meta potential of certain weapons. Have you tried Necrochasm or 2-burst HCs like Yesterday’s Question? There is too much whining about the meta knowing it rotates every season.

I would personally like to see other things buffed and a lot of the reason for that is that I and a lot of other people don't really use the play style that's most common for people using pulses in this game. People talk about them like they are scouts or supposed to be like scouts and I just don't really know what to say at that point. People range camping has almost never been that huge of an issue because only a teeny minority of people are good at playing like that. With a lot of people they're literally just standing still in predictable places.

1 ReplySince this act 1? Buddy, 340 pulses have been 2 tap weapons for multiple years now.

7 RepliesI'm seeing quite a broad range of primary weapon usage. Scouts, sidearms, smgs, hand canons, autos, pulses etc. It feels like there is some level of balance except for a few outlyers like Elsies etc. but that's to be expected. It sounds like you're being outplayed and trying to blame the guns instead of your inability to counter them.

Lot of nerve considering 120s were just buffed and Rose still tops the charts in pinnacle pvp.

8 RepliesEdited by Obelix: 11/28/2024 9:08:30 PMPulse, Scout… reward a different play style that is no less worthy. I think that constant witch hunt for weapons that are too powerful in PvP is mostly a fool errand. To a few exceptions maybe, I think it’s all relatively balanced and inconsequential compared to map knowledge, strategy…

I am or better was a pulse rifle main during all the years. In my opinion pulse rifles are weaker now in comparison. Not weak, still viable, but there are a lot of competitive alternatives being on par or better. In particular I feel that aim assist, recoil and range (at least on console) don't feel as good anymore.

1 ReplyAnd all the other shotguns and different type of other weapons, too. Just nah. Meta usually shift around once in a while. Last time it was handcannons. And there’s still handcannons being used. Always something.

1 ReplyHow do you list these but not Wicked Implement or Jade Rabbit. I rarely get beat by any of those listed unless they are in the hands of a Ximmer. Skill Issue I hate to say.
