They're nerfing blink, so nerf shoulder charge

With the news from GF today they will be nerfing the blink jump in an unspecified way in the 2.0 aka "the complainers" update. It already can't be done three times in a row. It already has the shortest distance and height. You also can not reload during this type of jump. Two out of three classes have it. Titans are the only class that don't and they're the only one with shoulder charge. Can we see a nerf of shoulder charge then? Reaaaddddd!!!! (Edit: Trying to start adult conversation free from cheeky one liner comments or insults seems to be impossible here. I'm not wasting time on anything more than an actual well thought out response. Thanks for the ones that brought intelligent remarks to the forum.) [b](Second edit: Comparing blink, a type of jump, to shoulder charge, a quasi-melee, is relevant as they are both 'abilities' that are unique to specific classes and can be over powered if used in the right hands. [i]Anything can be in Destiny. That is the main point. I really dislike nerfs. I don't really want anything nerfed, including shoulder charge.[/i])[/b] I'm getting too many of the same comments so instead of replying with the same comment over and over again I'm just going to edit the main comment. See above.

  • Whilst I understand people's frustrations this culture of nerfing everything is too toxic. it's draining any sense of fun from the game. Where does it end ? When we're slapping each other with flowers ? We're meant to have abilities to use.

  • Shoulder Charge is parallel to Back Stab(which is already wonderfully glitched), not Blink.

    They're too different for that. I'll elaborate. Shoulder charge lets you smash someones face. Blink stops you getting your face smashed. Blink is a JUMP that will almost instantly put you 10-15 feet away, saving you from every except the finger of god himself. Shoulder charge on the other hand has you running around headbutting things. Blink can save you from supers, bullets, rockets... Shoulder charge forces you to run into it all face first. They serve their purposes, Blink just needs to be less effective, because of the Blink, Quickdraw, Shotgun, combo. Shoulder Charge doesn't need a nerf because their is a huge risk involved when using it. You get no extra armour, no invincibility frames, it just auto-targets whatever you were looking at when you hit RB, like EVERY other melee in the game. Speaking of one hit melees... Where's the thread about nerfing a Sunsingers melee during radiance? One hit kills with virtually no downtime and all you guys can bitch about is a guy in heavy armour, needing a run up, to bring the pain train?

      • The nerf is probably just something where you can not immediately shoot coming out of blink. You have to wait a second or 2

            • Literally they can just reduce the distance of blink and that would fix half of the problems caused by it

              • Unless if you can easily shotgun someone while they're using blink in a straight line towards you, I'm going to have to disagree

              • I agree. I RARELY ever see anyone blink shotgunning and that's probably because of the the fact that it's some thing that takes patience and time to master. It's also not as effective anymore due to the fact that you don't respawn with ammo. along with that, it takes like 30 minutes for special ammo crates to refill and when they DO some one else is bound to pick it up before you. Not to mention the fact that there's a cool down every two blinks as well as a limit to mobility. Not just that, but blink is CRUCIAL to blade dancers. The only way to not get instantly killed by a shotgun as your performing the stupid animation, is by blinking before you activate it. Then there's Titans that can survive a gjallarhorn to the face as he's casting his super. This coupled with the Titans infinite grenades and armamentarium make them the most annoying thing in this game. Oh yea, did I mention the shoulder charge? Blink is a thing that requires skill and foresight, whereas shoulder charge is a free kill." OH BUT YOU HEF TO SPINT TO THOULDER THARTJ!!!1!!11" No. Just no. If you are legitimately saying that sprinting for 3 seconds is a challenge, you are dumb. Now, as upset I am with shoulder charge, I don't think either abilities should be altered. End of story. All these Whitney little sh1ts need to calm their t1ts and learn to play the game. There are a million ways to avoid shoulder charge and blink. The last time you p*****s complained about something, the entire crucible system became unbalanced. Auto rifles got nerfed to the ground, and that's an understatement. Auto rifles were for the people that had a casual, more relaxed play style. Hand cannons could easily kill an auto rifle user if the wielder had a steady aim and quick reflexes. Pulse rifles definitely deserved a buff and scout rifles were good at taking people out from the range an auto rifle couldn't. But thanks to all of these scrubs, EVERYTHING CHANGED. I'm hoping the weapon balancing patch fixes everything but from the looks of it, is blade dancers are fked.

                  it's really cool seeing only the people who blink+shotgun/use it in the middle of gun fights as a means of escape because they're getting handled are the ones getting mad ya'll have more jumps use them lol the criteria for using blink vs the criteria for using shoulder charge. shoulder charge is way less practical in every way shoulder charge is [i]Not[/i] the Titans melee they're melee is storm fist and is completely outclassed by every other melee in the game shoulder charge is compensation (and not a good one at that considering you can't use it at will) but what is blink compensating for? answer: nothing it's an added bonus and a good one [spoiler]at least this is my opinion anyways[/spoiler]

                  • [quote] It already has the shortest distance and height. You also can not reload during this type of jump. [/quote] Don't use it very often, huh? And for the sake of appealing to your distaste of cheeky one liners ;) I'll just go ahead and explain myself: You are wrong on both of those accounts. You can in fact reload whilst blinking, although I'm sure it's a glitch, and blink was the highest and longest range jump available to the hunter class pre-eos. But yes I don't have anything else important to say here, so bye.

                  • Blink can dodge supers and rockets, shoulder charge can't. End of Debate.
