thoughts on Auto rifle nerf
I feel that they shouldn't have touched the auto rifles. Now that they are less dominant it's making shotguns, fusion rifles and blade dancer better than ever.

1 ReplyThey work fine for me in all gameplay still. There's no way 2 % is hurting anyone that badly. Some kinda reverse placebo.

1 ReplyTotally useless. The AR i use is only controlable due to being fully upgraded. Now after the nerf its just as lame as it was before upgrades. The only AR that does not seem to have changed much is the suros regime due to its slow firing and high dmg per bullit.

1 ReplyEdited by CHlPPPY: 10/16/2014 4:45:34 PMMy Atheon’s Epilogue now feels a little unwieldy with the stability perk. I hate to think how it might handle if I took off the perk. Probably uncontrollable. [quote]I feel that they shouldn't have touched the auto rifles[/quote] Agreed, they should have just buffed the guns that needed to be buffed, rather than nerfing the auto-rifles.

1 ReplyEdited by DurkaMan89: 10/16/2014 4:48:02 PMLol, I was just about to write a thread on how the hotfix changed nothing really except for the vex mythoclast. I tested out the different guns, and still go back to my suros because it STILL shreds people even at long range. Hotfix fixed nothing.

2 Repliesless dominant [/quote] This means they were previously dominant, which they were. Auto rifles outclassed Scout Rifles, Hand Cannons, and Pulse Rifles, they needed a nerf.

I think the nerf was fine. Once I get more play time, I'll know for sure. I still see a majority of people using the Auto Rifles in the Crucible. That shotgun nerf however.... it seems to be as effective as ever. The blast-punch combo is still the most effective cqc maneuver in the game. I'm going to start upgrading a Scout Rifle and see if the buff has helped. I tried a couple if them back at launch and hated the recoil on them. Maybe I'll finally get some usable diversity in my primary weapon slot lol
