Eye roll..... Suros Regime was hit with a number of nerfs in Year One. The first couple were targeted at its exotic perks which WERE game breaking in PvP. Because they were so powerful in the vanilla game, that it allowed people to win gunfights they had no business winning. Once they hit the bottom half of that magazine, they'd start to heal themselves (effectively nerfing your damage to them) and then start doing ESCALATING damage from their weapon. So not only would they get a damage bonus from FF, each bullet in the last half of the magazine would do more and more and more damage to you. You could tell when a Suros user hit the bottom half of that magazine, because the momentum of the fight would change completely. But by the winter of 2015, Suros had been nerfed back down to something reasonable. Its was still powerful, but not game-breaking. That still wasn't enough for Bungie, because ARs were still dominating the Crucible, and Suros was still the dominant AR in PVP. I got my Suros 10 days before the Great AR Nerf. So I got 10 days to use it while it was still a powerful----but not gamebreaking weapon. When the Great AR Nerf patch landed. ARs as a group got DOUBLE nerfed (base damage and range fall off...the only weapon class in the game that got slapped with it at that point) THEN Suros got hit with ANOTHER nerf to it specifically. So Suros effectively got TRIPLE nerfed in that patch...and the weapon has never been the same since. The Crucible was never the same either, because that patch broke ARs, broke Fusion rifles...and ushered in Thornpocalypse. The exotic HC meta that would dominate the game until the weapon patch that dropped right before the release of The Taken King. So. NO contradictions.
