how op is vex going to be with the new weapon balancing?

Tlw gets nerfed, Suros gets nerfed, thorn gets nerfed, fusions and shotty gets nerfed, vex will be a beast. Glory days are back!!! Edit: No wonder bungie can never make this community happy, you are all idiots. You can't read a simple post that bungie published (it even had pictures) and understand what's going on. I know reading can be hard but damn. How do you people get by in day to day life? The fusion rifle nerf is about cone fire. Vex will be unaffected because it shoots single bolts. If you read the post, this would have been a simple thing to pickup on.

  • Tbh i don't think it will have much effect on the "top" weapons. 2.5% and ranve nerf to AR, atm you can cross map kill people with the suro and vanquisher, they will still be beasts! And TLW with its RoF will still be amazing. I'm hoping it will finally balance out all the weapons. Good to see pulse rifles getting a long awaited buff.

  • 100% speculation. They posted all the general changes to classes. Just because they don't call out the vex specifically doesn't mean they won't tweak it. I have to imagine if better balance is their end goal, it would get tweaked quickly if it was a miss.

    • Wow, reading comprehension is really low in this group. Are most of you non English speakers? No one said vex is getting buffed, everything else that competes with it is getting nerfed. The fusion rifle nerf is about cone fire spread. Vex does not have cone fire, therefore is unaffected. With ar getting trashed and hand cannons getting nerfed, vex will be dominant, like it should be. And you guys better check on the necrochasm, last time I checked it was classified as a pulse rifle, so a 9% buff to damage maybe incoming. (Look it up before screaming and crying)

        Vex bolts will still be spread out more, single fire or not. Guarantee it. Might not be too affected by the ammo nerf but I'm certain it will be less accurate.

        • It's accuracy will be affected. It still fires in a cone, but it only fires a single bolt at a time. If you were to view any other fusion rifle in slow motion it would look similar to the vex, with the addition of charge time.

            • actually the auto fire of the vex is considered a continuous "burst" so yeah nerf hits it.

                  Dude, it's like everyone went full-retard after that update came out. The pictures alone should've been enough to explain [i]why[/i] the weapon tweak is happening. It's like they just presumed all the weapons involed were getting a damage reduction bar Pules Rifles. Idiots.

                    I also feel this will be a BUFF to the pocket infinity as it will be even harder to miss now with a larger spread to the blast cone and lethal damage in crucible is NOT an issue with this gun even when you only hit some of the bursts (not that it is hard to hit with now just saying) and this will make killing crowds with it much easier.

                  • I wouldn't mind the changes as much if it wasn't as deadly to switch between primaries. Clicking through my gear screen, expecting to die because you can't see the game...

                    • Vex will be nerfed to. Decreased range and decreased full auto accuracy / cone fire. Destiny treats the vex full auto as 1 burst thus unless you use it semi auto then it will have bad accuracy.

                    • You are right. If the nerf on Hand Cannons is too heavy, people will just switch to Vex. I mean the people that don't just default to Autos or Shottys, and want something that has an edge over those options.

                    • In this instance I pretty sure vex falls under the auto rifle category for the patch even though it's technically a fusion

                      • If fusion rifles are getting nerfed then the Vex most likely is as well. I won't give you too much hassle over the confusion though, it's hard to think of the Vex as a fusion rifle.
