“You had to be there” - when this exotic armor was fun - when this exotic weapon was powerful - when this bug allowed us to beat every solo content ez - when this emote allowed us to complete challenges - when we could grind this or that by skipping this whole boring part - … - … - when this game was friendly.

Fixing a bug =/= nerf. Hope this helps.

I've been on First Descendent heavy. Heard about this gun being REALLY good and didn't get exited the slightest to log on and get it. Why? I knew a nerf was coming. No motivation to play this game anymore.

Wasn't it out damaging most heavy weapons as a special weapon? Seems a bit much tbh.

"check this exotic" but there's a bug that stops you from getting it or even progressing.. STILL

It's a common theme that everything that actually feels powerful and exotic gets nerfed - give or take some of the heavies. And I don't know if it's because I typically solo things but I can currently not think of a single primary or special slot exotic that I would take over one of the classic heavies - such as thunderlord (good for unstoppables) or dragonbreath (allows you to take cover and let the dots do the work). I would mix it up more - because some of the special/primary exotics are still cool - but then we're restricted by the ammo loss when switching things around - and I've played way too many activities where ammo seem bugged and nothing ever drops, so not taking any chances. Also, would have been really interesting to be in the room when they discussed an exotic AR with capabilities of this one. When they're done with it it's basically going to be a fusion rifle with a single bullet range option instead.
