Prometheus lens is completely broken in PVP.
It has high range, virtually no damage falloff, a damage over time burn effect, and it has the lowest time to kill in the game by about half right now. It's 100% broken. Even more then the vex mythoclast was pre nerf in destiny 1. Did they even playtest this? Its like having constant heavy ammo.
Update: Deej tweeted out that the gun shipped with a bug and will be fixed. All of you defending it or downplaying its power are unsurprisingly wrong.
Update 2: Xur is selling it. Guns still broken and needs to be fixed but at least now PVP will be an even playing field until they do.

Dear god the level of ignorance here. The gun kills in under 0.4 seconds, the closest thing in the game to that is the last hopes 0.7 seconds, and the last hope is only useful at about 15 feet. This gun can cross map and beat out scout rifles and maintain the 0.4 second time to kill. There is no defense against this gun in PVP, it isn't a debate, that's just a fact. It is, without a doubt, broken.

Oh no! There is an exotic that performs like an exotic should! We can't have that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qhH8KvJmxw&feature=youtu.be

Haha GG

17 RepliesThis is exactly what is wrong with Destiny. Pvp players are the Ruin of Destiny.

GOOD, that means it will actually be fun to use in pve

5 RepliesAren't exotics supposed to be the best weapons in the game. #makeexoticsgreatagain

They don't need to fix it, what they need to do is break the other weapons. Nothing wrong with being broken, it's....delightful. No need to delete broken perks.

1 ReplyI’d support this if Bungo were smart enough to balance PvP and PvE separately. Since they clearly aren’t, I’d rather see PvP turned into an unplayable dumpster fire over further screwing up PvE.
-
I do one know thing is for sure. This gun eliminates all the holding hands and constant hoe ass team shooting. For 1v1 engagements it’s sick. If your team mates just so happen to be mounting you and trying to team shoot and they get destroyed by it, you and your broke back mountain ass teammate can kiss that ass goodbye. Weapon is solid. Good job @Bungie!
-
Or they raise the dmg output of every other weapon... You nerfherders won’t stop until we’re using our farts as our primary. Stop Nerfing shit! You’re part of the problem!

Edited by PhraustStryke: 12/6/2017 5:45:22 PMI say bring it on, this is exactly the faster more chaotic pvp setting that I miss from D1 in D2. How about instead of The Crucib**** Who Cried Nerf how about Bungie buffs other weapons to match. Hell since many people already have Coldheart, Bungie brings it up to speed and boom, level playing field. Maybe then pvp will be interesting again, maybe even dare I say fun to play... Nevermind Deej already tweeted that it's bugged, great so much for that. After the hotfix slow and stale pvp standoffs continue on. Sad, for a second I thought an exotic would feel like an exotic...

FYI: [url]https://twitter.com/deej_bng/status/938447834365313024[/url] Confirmed the weapon is actually broken, and not functioning as intended. I'm getting tired of posting this, but without direct comment from Bungie, these little debates will just keep raging on and on all over the place.
-
I love that bungie always blames tjings on a bug lol
-
Read the Deej twitter post. It has a bug , he says ...
-
Can't wait to see this thing get nerfed to the ground. :)
-
It needs a nerf ASAP
-
well its gonna get nerfed regardless, once the sandbox team sees the % on the gun usage high AF they will strip it down im calling it now. destiny 2 pvp isn't even competitive. the team shooting aspect lowers that skill ceiling and obliterates everything that the original games like halo pvp stood for. if reach had come out today i betcha the dmr would have been nerfed
-
From the videos I've seen the numbers that appear may show that the expanding AoE effect is actually causing crit damage when it makes contact with someones head without displaying the number in yellow like normal. It may simply be that simple as the sphere causing crit damage on top of other damage.
-
Also Deej tweeted out recently that it’s bugged. That might be why it’s op.
-
Oh it's definitely broken as all hell, leave it, bring us back pre nerf thorn and TLW, maybe pre nerf suros and a few others and then we might have a fun crucible, I'd rather see the general power level turned right up and be exciting than the boring slow malaise that D2 has been since launch.
-
I got it and have been using it. Didn't take long before I came to the same conclusion just by using it my self. It's painfully obvious. If someone can't see that... well there is a reason why humanity doesn't put people like that in charge. Except at Bungie :P

It sure does bring a good laugh for a couple of games but it is broken in pvp and useless there is a rly add heavy fight in a pve place i wouldent use it in pve becouse its utter trash on harder targets but clears adds and soft targets like a hot knife throug butter but it kind of makes pvp quite boring fast. Sure you can beat it on extreme close range and with like a antiop bit if you hit first with the prometheus its game over for the receiver ive ran into an entire team hiding behind a titan barrier and everyone just melts and leaves the barrier standing or the times where you pree fire 3 guys while running and all 3 are dead within 2 sec. They rly have to do something about it becouse when everyone have it pvp will become extreamly booring.
-
Theres a lack of videos in here.. let me fix that. =)

1 ReplyThis will break the game play in PvP, people if not, whole fire teams will use this and wreck trials or any PvP for that matter. They will nerf it soon cause no one will do ranked or competitive PvP soley cause of this weapon. Enjoy it while it last.
