I love the gun but you have to admit , 12/12 ppl using it makes the game awful. Especially since it’s basically every game . We all knew when there’s one gun that kills faster than 99% of other guns that it ruins the game . For example - Uriel’s gift or graviton lance . We all commended that cause it made feel like you were handicapping yourself if you didn’t use it . It’s the same thing all over with Luna’s . I’ve come to hate using it cause of how similar and repetitive each game becomes.

3 RepliesEdited by TheWagn: 11/19/2018 9:35:48 PMLuna has glaring weaknesses: little range and you must hit all headshots or it's literally trust with a crappy roll. Also anyone with a bygones and half a brain can destroy you at range. The gun should be good you have to grind that whole crazy quest for it. Nothing like graviton which was a free handout exoitc that became an absolute menace to deal with at insane ranges. Also luna is just a fun gun to use, and I'm sure anyone who grinded the whole quest wants to use it. I worked my butt off for that thing and I'm gonna use it and get skilled with it. Sue me.

2 RepliesSomeone saying it how it is....... Luna breaks the 180 mold and is a beast hand cannon.

2 RepliesI grinded that weapon SOLO. I'm sorry but, i'm going to be using it long after it becomes obsolete. Also, i like when there's a 12/12 lobby with Luna. That means that there is an even playing field and the person with the most skill will win the gunfights.

I've honestly had fun crushing Luna users with Ace over the past week.

1 ReplyLol, lunas isn't even that good... That's why there's not forgotten

12 RepliesTo be fair D2 current pvp is the worst its ever been... yeah we had the riggid meta's before but that could of been fixed... But now we have 6v6 on maps too small with now plentiful shotguns, heavy and many unbalanced weapons, laggy as hell thanks to crappy no SBMM matchmaking... To start to make things better Bungie need to make it 4v4 again reduce the amount of heavy and change shotguns to 2 body or 1 precision hit then start work on the class abilities... once thats done they then need to start buffing some weapons like SMG, scouts, fusions etc

3 RepliesEdited by CosmiQ-Toast: 11/18/2018 3:19:12 AMI got to disagree with you man. Just because other people are using it doesn't mean you have to. And weapons are so diversified these days that you can use a ton of different combinations for loadouts. If you feel like there isn't enough options for you it's because you're not trying other weapons. If you don't feel like most are viable for you, well that's because you need to learn how to play with those weapons. Wether you like pvp or not is soley dependent on you, your skill and ability to use your class. There are a ton of weapons that can out gun Luna, all it takes is for your enemy to miss a headshot. So keep moving , use cover, and utilize your tools guardian.

2 RepliesEdited by C-a-I-l-u-m: 11/19/2018 2:07:34 PMToo many people just WANT to win, hell as long as your having fun and not losing every game it’s ok I guess if I was board using the same gun I’d switch to to something fun like drang/sturm or dire promise/fighting lion etc just for fun ! Don’t sweat on it !

The unbalancing of guns in Crucible is just ridiculous.

I knew this would come up and I'm so glad I don't indulge in PvP.

9 RepliesEdited by CatMan: 11/20/2018 2:15:34 AMLuna isn't easy 4 ME to use. I actually hate how slow it shoots and how much stability it has. Wish it had a little kick back...that's just me tho. Maybe I need more practice.

You wait till last word is back next month you’ll be writing another post like this....

2 RepliesI will gladly use TLW to -blam!- over Luna and Nf users. And then dismantle it when I don’t see as many Luna’s
-
Just stay out of Lunas range. A gun doesn't mean anything if the player isnt good.
-
About time. It’s last word all over again but far stronger
-
13 RepliesWait til TLW drops and watch them luna users cry lol

3 RepliesWell it's tied to triumph achievements so you can't really argue why people are using it.

6 RepliesI was getting a little annoyed with not beating Luna users with a 110 handcannon. Even when i snag 2 headshots i wasnt getting that 3rd shot off because Luna's ttk. Magnificent Howl cancels out the only weakness of a 180 handcannon which is range/damage falloff. Its just so grossly apparent how much of an advantage those 2 guns give you. They can be beaten but you're definitely putting in more work than they are to do so.
-
1 ReplyI got it two weeks into Forsaken, but I’m starting to agree now. When everyone uses the same thing, it’s just not as interesting. The best thing I’d recommend to counter it, which is what I’ve started doing instead of using Luna’s, is get in the air and use an explosive rounds 180 rpm handcannon (mine’s Trust). It throws people pretty well.
-
I think that the magnificent Howl perk should be nerfed back to double damage. This would mean that players would only be able to kill if they land all three headshots or they land 2H 1B on a zero resilience guardian.

2 RepliesEdited by Lich: 11/17/2018 5:20:37 PMAgreed and it comes down to it’s not unforgiving. Just like shotguns, telesto there’s hardly any room for error when using guns like this that’s why it becomes so popular. Metas are stale after the next day. And essentially it comes down to what the other player isn’t using giving you field advantage. Autos still suck, there’s no good fusion rifles on the lower charge time, 110 to 150 rpm hand cannons suck compared to 180. Scouts need a lot of love.
-
Yeah. This meta got old kind of quick. The same thing that happened in year one is happening now. All I see are Lunas and DRBs. Though there have been many Luna's users I've faced that are just -blam!-ing awful with it.
-
Absolutely. I choose not to use it in quickplay because it makes gameplay boring. I think the only place where it really even matters is in comp. It's much too annoying to handicap yourself in comp.
-
At least you can actually get Luna's and then complain about it. Competitive is such a borked format (with rampant DDoSers going after Luna's and Not Forgotten, like my last match, to end a 3 or 4 win streak as a solo player. I shut my system off before that one ended), and a point loss system that makes winning feel practically unrewarding and pointless, I really don't see much of a point in playing it anymore to get the stupid gun in the first place. I also haven't been playing Crucible that much because I'm kind of tired of getting killed by stupid Luna's all the time and not being able to respond in kind.

2 RepliesI'm using it because I love HCs and I grind as hell for it. In close mid range it kill faster, thats right, but on bigger range you will be outgunned by pulses. On very close you will be outgunned by shottys. So situational yes, but I wouldnt say it kills faster than 99% of all guns.
