Who cares? Heavy weapons aren't that useful anymore. In Crota's End sure, but now... It's Black Spindle and Touch of Malice that's 'required' for the King's Fall raid. Bring it back if they want. I don't care. It was overused and overhyped anyway.

I wouldn't mind if Ghorn came back. Or a number of other Y1 guns for that matter. EVERYBODY misses their fatebringer/VoC etc. Why? Not just b/c they were the best due to their perks & burns. But b/c they were RELEVANT! Y1 = orbit if the team wiped on NF. Y1 had the necessary "grind" to be a 30, 32, 34. The guns of Y1 were tools that you became EXCITED about that helped make the game fun and just a little easier. "Easier" is being used loosely here. B/c you still had to "grind" for that special something. Something so far, Y2 is really missing. Sure, you could play countless undying mind strikes for that specific roll on imago loop I suppose. But there was that extra something with your team of 6 when somebody got that special gun/armour. This past week, while I and a number of teammates had fun. We are left w/a WTH feeling?! I'm a 334 on all 3 characters already for crying out loud?! I'm not bragging. But feel a little disappointed. I know I had the luck of RNG here. The point is, there was no grind/discipline to obtain it. They just dropped?! While this past NF was actually difficult for a change and had a blast playing it! (And the rewards were actually REWARDS) The PoE 42 was too easy. I feel/hope that bungie has given us a "free" week. Kind of like that first week of HoW for weapons to drop more frequently. For in the near future. I for one am looking forward to that "challenge"!! And the grind to obtain! I know that the 42 PoE can be made far more difficult in the future. I and a number of my team are looking forward to that "Skolas post burn" fun of the game please.

Of course they [b]hope[/b] they can make another weapon as iconic as the Gjallarhorn. But really, given their current decision making and design choices it's not going to happen. They are avoiding making powerful weapons like the plague. To have one emerge like the gjallarhorn had it inherently has to be far more powerful than anything else in it's class, to that end the sandbox team won't allow it. Cute words from Deej, too bad they are empty.

Ah, the good old days when the only gun required for everything was the mighty Gjallarhorn. I remeber week 1 PoE melting Skolas with it. Good times.

Boy year two players just don't know man. Used to be a team wouldn't even look at you if you didn't have gally. You think that the "Must be 315+ with ToM" post where bad? You just don't even know.

This is total click-bait. The article mentions NOTHING about gally in year 2....."another gally" is not gally.

If they bring it back, they should lower its drop rate as compared to other exotics and make it unobtainable from Engrams or Blueprints. This would make it truly feel powerful or rare and you couldn't just grind for it as it'd drop far less. Or maybe they should give an exotic quest for it.

This game needs a super weapon Something really really difficult to get But once you have it you are complete in life!!

[b]"...whether it's the actual Year Two Gjallarhorn or a spiritual successor...”[/b] You know that exotic Rocket Launcher in the database and said something about volleys or something? Here you go. [b]"...a spiritual successor..."[/b][spoiler]or you know, both.[/spoiler]

I mean I get why people don't want it. It becomes a requirement for everything to have a max gjallarhorn, and some people just can't obtain it. And I get that it can make other guns seem useless. For me tho I'm on board because it was cool to have that one gun that everyone wanted and it kept me playing the game. Plus a lot of exotics don't feel exotic enough atm.

As someone who had both IB and gally, I never understood how people chose gally. You definitely had better dps and never had to worry about ammo, with the IB. I guess people just didn't like having to aim.
