My post got buried in the All section so I'm putting it here where it should go actually.
Anyways
First of all let me start out by saying I'm extremely excited for this update. Auto rifles will be back, shotguns will be a little less effective, Thorn and TLW will be great, but not OP grenades and horseshoes will see a slight nerf, and overall I think we shall see a variety of guns being used that personally makes me excited.
The Hand Cannon nerf in general I thought was unnecessary and will trash all hand cannons not named Hawkmoon, Thorn, and TLW, but meh not so mad as I'm due for a nice break from them.
Now to the point.
Anyone else feel like slow ROF high impact Pulse rifles (Red Death) and faster firing Scouts (Mida) could possibly rule the new meta? I know medium fire pulses get a slight nerf, but slow fire high impact ones won't.
Again I'm excited but I feel like nerfs were handed out left and right to everything but Scouts and Pulses (Even Autos got a stability and damage drop off nerf)
My main is the Hopscotch Pilgrim, so all that happens is that I get a nice addition to my mag size, and that I'll still be able to drop people quickly, but otherwise everything else gets worse except for Autos and Scouts.
Thoughts?
And please be serious. No trolls lol
Edit: I posted this in a reply already but I guess I seem to disagree with people about what I consider high rof, medium rof, and slow rof.
The Eddict clearly fires very fast with low impact.
The Allfate clearly has a slower fire rate with medium impact.
The Messenger clearly has an EVEN SLOWER rof with very high impact.
Maybe it was worded incorrectly, maybe they are targeting medium rof pulses, or maybe Bungie considers Messenger and Allfate to be medium rof.
Not sure exactly but there's a clear disparity in rate of fire between the 2. So I'm guessing since the notes clearly say MID rof, there must be a faster class and a slower. Common sense tells me that. This is why I'm making this post about Pulses. I feel like Hopscotch and Messenger could be a bit unbalanced if Bungie sees the rof disparity that I (and everyone else that is willing to look at the stats themselves) see, then yes that's why I see what I can see.
Edit2: K so, it appears that it'll be a Hard Light master race according to a large mass of people. I seem to have slept on that gun, but I feel like people will sleep on Monte Carlo xD

I'm smelling Scout Rifle master race.

Red Death is a mid impact pulse rifle. Its stat bars are completely wrong. It fires as fast and deals as much damage as AllFate(until you use Aggressive Ballistics that increases damage).
-
1 RespuestaEven before the patch, I was using bad juju, which is pretty good, now it's gonna be even better??? Good deal for me.
-
3 RespuestasNo I think all the guns will start fitting in their places hopefully Soo bigger maps see more pulse and scouts snipers rocket launchers Smaller maps hand cannons and autos Shot guns fusion rifles heavy MG Mid sized mix of all That's what I think it would seem like bungee would want but who knows we don't know how this will affect every thing as far as we know. The third might still run rampant and they might have to take that send it perk off completely

Huh? Scouts were already master race, used em since beta.

4 RespuestasI totally dismantled my hopscotch pilgrim. Is it better than the messenger? I've heard people say that it is.
-
1 RespuestaYup. Bungie removes one problem - creates another. Cant wait for weapon tuning 3.0
-
4 RespuestasIf mida becomes part of the new meta I will be so happy. Hopefully the taken king comes with maps that fit pulse and scouts better
-
2 RespuestasI'm crying

3 RespuestasMaybe, Hard Light will raise above them all, and reclaim it's seat as the new king tho.

Editado por Yahini: 7/19/2015 8:50:35 PMdepends on how big the "stability" drop is for pulse rifles. knowing bungie they will make them start jumping all over the place.

13 RespuestasI'll go ahead and get it started even though I use it... "NERF MIDA!" That will plague the forums soon lol.

1 RespuestaHard light master race
-
Pulses Rifles are already Kings of the Meta. You just have to be good and accurate. Not a TLW hip firing spray and pray scrub. Or a Poison Handicap Dependant Thorn user.
-
4 RespuestasPulse rifles are already excellent in PvP. At the moment weapons like Red Death and The Messenger can 2 shot kill just like the Thorn. Unfortunately players don't really think for themselves and this is why we have the current Thorn situation. Hopefully with the new patch people will have the opportunity to figure out what works for their play style, and not just what others are claiming is the new OP weapon.

No it's scout/auto master gun

1 RespuestaThe Scholar (adept) ermagahd. It's already spectacular. Only 13 rounds though. With extra clip size it will wreck as$. So excited. I have used scouts exclusively since the beginning of day 1.
