Can we get a HARD nerf to bastion and arbalest

I feel like I dont even need to explain this one. Broken special ammo economy still mixed with these crutch ass weapons that have been rampant for HOW LONG? This is why I left for apex and I am leaving again peace 🤙 Edit: All these people defending their crutch lmaoooooo

  • The D2 fathers will be here soon now that you called for their crutch to be nerfed. Prepare yourself.

      I think they're fine as is but I also play on PC, I'm sure they're stronger on console.

If you don’t want to adapt your play to fit the loadouts of other players in PVP begging for nerfs won’t help. If you’re leaving the game anyway then you don’t need to worry about guns that don’t need nerfs not getting nerfs.

      • I don’t personally think bastion is too big a problem, I mean maybe the damage to supers could be toned down but apart from that I think it’s mostly fine, but arbalest is a worry. I think after the sniper changes more people are gonna start running it as it counter acts the aim assist nerf to snipers.

        I have literally never died to Bastion, and arbalest is so easy to outplay, mostly cause if you pay attention you hear someone pre firing it giving a heads up.

          Don’t let the door hit you on the ass on your way out! Nerf calls suck! Kind of funny the shotgun and sniper user has the nerve to call any type of weapon a “crutch”!

          • Bastion is the only good FR, and it's not even broken in the slightest. Stop playing recklessly and you'll stop dying to it. Arbalest only has a little too much bullet magnetism against Guardians... But the charge time kind of screws it for much competitive use. You have summoned me.

            • Bastion could definitely use less range. Don't know why it shoots 3 shots each with the range and damage of a shotgun shot. And arbalest needs a lot more flinch.

              • I get 1 shot by it now and then, even 1 shot out of my super, but nerfs are not the answer.

                • Why? So you can hop and dodge around with your little shotgun with reckless abandon? No thanks. Those weapons aren't even that bad. [b][i][u]especially[/u][/i][/b] bastion with that slow ass charge time.

                  ...and this is why PVP needs to be seperated from the rest of the game. This isn't Halo or Call of Duty. You are playing the PVP that has been tacked onto a loot-game, and a **power-fantasy** game. Oh, and you have access to the same weapons. Try using them.

                    Translation - "Waaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh........................" You guys are in the wrong freaking game. Stick with Halo.

                  • Quit crying for nerfs...if they're that good everyone would be using them but they aren't.

                  • Any sniper beats Arbalest because of the charge time. Bastion gets outplayed by The Chaperon and Felwinters. Please learn to adapt your play style so Bungie doesn't make unnecessary nerfs to things that DON'T need to be nerfed.

                    • Are these the only 2 crutches that break your momentum? How about we start with removing ALL aim assist from ALL weapons. Then lets play a day or two and see what else needs a tweak!

                      • how about instead we bring back the special ammo changes that were in destiny 2 and also nerf ammo scavenger perks so people dont end up getting 20 shots from one special brick in PvP. The weapons are fine when their use is limited, but the more ammo there is in the match the more use they'll see. also while we're at it, change heavy ammo back to D1 as well. Once per match and take away the pickup on death.
