Vex mythoclast 34% debuff? more like 50% debuff.
"The Vex Mythoclast received a 34% damage debuff" with a 1.5 damage multiply to precision kills up from 1.25 damage multiplier.
In PVP VM went from 45 hit for a body shot down to just 23. Thats much more than 34%. and even with the percision damage buff the mythoclast does 21 less per hit.
Head shots from the vex mythoclast now do 35 Damage per precision shot down from 56.
Body shots with the mythoclast now do 23 Damage compared to 45 pre-nerf.
Compared to the suros regime which does 37 per precision Shot and 30 per body shot.
Looks like the suros Regime is again the best PVP weapon. Even though it has a slower fire rate it makes up for it with accuracy. The vex wins in most close range fights but is much harder to use in longer range battles with the reduced damage

EDIT: Info from: aXiom Tested it on a Lvl 2 Fallen: Suros - 128 Vex - 120 MIDA - 238

People need to stop fixating on base damage values and look at the "Time to Kill" (TTK) values instead. The Vex Mythoclast still has a high ammo capacity of 56, decent rate of fire, and virtually zero recoil. Here's ACTUAL GAMEPLAY [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBeJGzBIMhA]footage[/url] of the Vex Mythoclast AFTER the patch. It's still a very good weapon in PvP even after the patch. It's pretty much just as good as all the other best-in-class primary guns. I also find it funny that all the people that were defending the gun before the patch were telling others to "get skill" and stop crying about it. Funny how they can't take their own advice after the patch. Which further proves that the gun was a huge crutch in PvP. As far as PvE goes, I actually agree that the weapon classes need some adjustments. But they should be kept separate between the two modes (PvE and PvP). Even after the buff most Legendary (and higher) Scout Rifles and Pulse Rifles continue to suck, and take way longer to kill enemies well below my Guardian's own level.
