I never see anyone using the messenger archetype anymore. Spare change and Parthian shot are incredibly under powered, they should be doing at least 36 for a crit shot not 34. Since the pulse rifle nerd, which ended the nirwens mercy dynasty, the max impact pulses are no where to be found. Bungie has turned them to something almost unusable, since basically everything outguns them, but they can fix it by buffing them. They shouldn't be as powerful as they were in year1, like hopscotch and messenger doing 38 crit shot, but they need to be reintroduced to crucible.

1 ReplyGuys hopscotch and messenger are two different archetypes...

1 ReplyI agree, maybe tighten the recoil so counterbalance isn't required and a small damage buff, 35 to the head would do alot for the gun. At the moment you've gotta get the stars and moon aligned with your perks just to get a viable weapon. The changes i propose would be the slightest of buffs that would allow more options for a competitive weapon.

Edited by K_R_A_Z_Y__95: 12/31/2016 4:48:28 PMThey need more stability, that's it. They can still two-burst if you only get headshots, that's how it should be. The problem is that they kick so hard that it is far too difficult to land 6 consecutive headshots. I don't want them to have a damage buff because they'll be able to two burst even if you land a body shot.

6 RepliesParthian Shot/Spare change archetype can two burst. Try using high impact pulses for team shotting.

19 RepliesHonestly, they should just remove that archetype, its impossible to balance it without making it too op or too weak

Would be nice, I'd like my Apple of Discord to be relevant again.
