Fighting Lion Nerf- "You should eat soup with your chopsticks"

Picture this: A man walks into a bakery and picks up a loaf of bread. First he salts the loaf, and then proceeds to tear it in half, carve out the insides, and the stomp all over it. He then looks at the baker and says "What a nice loaf of bread! I hope you eat it with a fork though." I'm about to rant about the fighting lion (FL) nerf, but before I do so, I want to say that the rest of the twab was excellent, I just feel like this shouldn't get swept under the rug with all the good changes drawing people's focus. the fighting lion nerf to reload speed is asinine. FL is not good or used because of it's reload perks but for its primary ammo and wall bounciness. Manually reloading this weapon is much better than utilizing it's pretty bad reload perks. Bungie knows this but still felt the need to nerf the best way to reload this weapon because they feared a little grenade spam from some people in pvp. A much better solution to this theorized problem would be to give FL its own magazine cap in pvp, but no it needs to get possibly one of the worst nerfs in the game instead. To need to hit 2 enemies at least to be able to reload is unreasonable for pvp and some parts of pve. It also completely kills the catalyst's reload speed buff. Then to add salt to a wound, they call it a light nerf and condescend us for not using the weapon the way they intended. This nerf should not be ignored. It is unnecessary and kills a really fun weapon. Emphasis on "fun" since this weapon isn't meta and isn't amazing either, it's just a lot of fun to use normally.

    Don’t think it will do any good but I am posting on all the fighting lion threads Every time a twab comes out I just shake my head from side to side. Can’t believe people are praising the twab when it is filled with nerfs Can’t believe how they killed this weapon I only have about 3k kills with mine but I did use it this season I am baffled with the crap they come up with I think this is the only weapon in the game that PUNISHES you for missing a shot or shooting a single target I will say it again who has ask for infinite primary ammo ???? The ONLY time I run out of primary ammo is doing GM’s because the champions and bosses are bullet sponges Fighting Lion < blue engram
