Nerfing the Falling G is so frustrating

I don't understand why this sword needs to be nerfed , it's not giving anyone an advantage in pvp , it simply let's some of the players who can't play destiny 14 hours a day a fighting chance to do some of the more difficult challenges. Believe me this makes me very unhappy. I play destiny about 6 hours minimum literally every day for the last 4 months , your weekly loot system is so flawed I haven't been able to hit the light cap because you give me the same gun or category of weapon for all of my weeklys , never going to increase my light if I only ever get one category higher. And now bungie has to take away one of the items that helps us with some of the ever so difficult tasks. I spent hours masterworking every piece armor and weapons , and now you sunset them , you are making the grind pointless , everything that's good gets taken away , this is starting to make me question playing the game , and even weather to buy a next gen system , I dedicate all my extra time to this game any you just keep making our time dedication worthless , only take something away and regrind to get what we already had , Soo fun .....

  • It had to come. FG is OP and the most powerful power weapon the game has had so far. So many times the pack I am with kill bosses on the first phase. It slaps them into oblivion. Even after the nerf it will still be no 1 and kill bosses in 2 phases instead. Whooptidoo....

  • Because three players armed with that sword and buffed by Armor of Light can burn down a Nightfall boss before the first wave of adds can even spawn. The sword is overpowered. The Original Dark Drinker wasn’t this strong and it was an exotic.

      • TL;DR: I'm bad. Please don't take away my weapon that makes the game easy.

        • Like if you haven't played D2 long enough to know that [i]nothing powerful last forever[/i] and [i]Bungo doesn't like fun[/i] Don't get use to anything but nerfs and cheap difficulty branded as [i]challenging[/i] in this game, is Destiny 2 we are talking know your game better guardian.

          Tbh I'm surprised they didn't nerf it when it was bugged at the beginning of the season. I don't like it, but at least it's still gonna be head and shoulders above other swords. That is, if the new exotic chainsaw doesn't replace it in BL.

        • Falling guillotine is the most broken thing in this game since liars handshake one two punch. It's still going to be good but right now it is simply too good, you are blind if you think it's balanced.

        • Sword was/is extremely powerful. Fun to use but it doesn’t take any skill to use and wrecks everything that remains on the ground. This nerf is a no brainer. The nerf to Mountaintop is not. That gun is also powerful but is being sunset so will be a non factor in new content and new endgame. Not necessary.

        • It was inevitable. What we should be preaching is for Bungie not to release items that are guaranteed to get nerfed. Tune them first.

        • Eh, just gives me a reason to never touch a sword again. Back to rockets, or 1K, since they ruined LMGs too.

          • I'm starting to come around to this nerfing , I guess I'm just comming around to all the changes ..I was obsessed with D1 , completed every raid , had all the exotics , I didn't play destiny 2 at all I till about 4 months ago and I'm back obsessed so I have spent a crazy amount of long sessions getting caught back up I should have done my research first . I master worked all my gear before learning of sunsetting , spent the time to get all the pinicals like recluse and breakneck and maxed out the season pass in that time. When I think about the sunsetting I just scrapped half the guns I just grinded for because I didn't want to be reliant on them for beyond light , however it.did force me to try out some different guns that I now really enjoy .

            Probably get used to them nerfing stuff in pve and PvP. They've been doing it for 6 years. Mountain top with Luna factions or rally barricade, too strong, nerf them. Snipers too strong nerf whisper and sniper damage. Rockets too strong with cluster bombs, nerf them.

            • I didn't want to see a nerf either but we all knew it was coming. Eventually I see it on the backs of every guardian at the tower, 98% of the strikes, nightfalls, nightmare forest, and contact events... We use it on everything. 1 phase and instant melt bosses everywhere. Rip

            • Im personally glad its getting nerfed.... it brought us back to where Destiny 1 DPS was at the end of its life and that wasnt fun in my opinion.

            • They are bringing it in line with other swords but still a bit stronger. That means it will still melt everything. Since other swords do lime 5-10% less than guillotine.

            • Without Lucent Blade and Whirlwind Blade its actually kinda garbage like every other sword.

            • Now it just does damage slightly higher than other swords instead of significantly higher than other swords. Whatever will you do?

            • The TWAB didn’t even phase me. They probably will add more nerfs in the next 3 weeks to add to it. FG is ridiculously powerful so you knew it would get nerfed from the start. Im more disappointed with the lack of buffs. Scouts aren’t ok where they’re at. I do like them edging up outlaw and would like them to do the same with feeding frenzy and rapid hit.

            • Honestly, as long as there is always a current season "OP/Fun" weapon (or 2, or 3) and they continue to make it easy to farm for good rolls then I don't think it matters. If they DON'T do that, then yeah, fun factor takes a huge hit.

              • I disagree, I think it’s good to allow the other sword types to compete against it.
