OP in pve. Does it actually exist?

As long as I have been a gamer I have never had a problem with having a super strong weapon in pve. From the Spartan laser to the gjallarhorn to getting the cover Pokemon before you beat the elite four. Pve has always had the main achievement be being able to stomp everything in your way. You start off weak so that you can play through the game and get things that let you kill things easier. Since when has the problem been that you kill things "too quickly"? That you weapons are "too strong" I understand pvp "too strong" because no one wants to get one shot before they can react to a face to fight with an opponent But in pve how are you too strong? If you feel like you don't have a challenge then handicap yourself but don't handicap the weapons. If the problem was with people acting elite (in the forums) with elite weapons then why nerf the damage? Why not give everyone access to the weapons? It may just be my opinion but I don't think justifying nerfs by saying you're "too strong in pve" is an actual argument What do you think? Edit: holy 200+ replies. I see everyone talking about loadouts. I guess mug next question becomes if you think playing a certain way makes it too easy, why play that way? No one cares if you want to run the raid with commons because it makes it harder on you so why do you care if I make it easier for me? Isn't that my choice? User "Wittz" made a great statement [quote]Op + pve = fun The game needs op weapons, the fights just need to be tailored so the op weapons can't always shine.[/quote] Instead of changing weapons why not change boss fights? Edit 2: after 500+ replies everyone is still talking about loadouts. I know y1 had a very powerful meta. My point is that that's what made it fun. Over powered weapons are the fuel for pve because the goal is to become more powerful. Therefore people want to chase powerful weapons. Which is the problem right now because people don't want to chase mediocre weapons. I don't think anything can be "game breaking" unless you actually mod the game. Because it was designed to be powerful, if one finds said weapon too powerful that's a personal opinion reflecting how they want to play the game.

  • Ballerhorn was OP for sure. It was so OP, that it became a requirement for all LFG raid teams. Bungie doesn't like that happening, so they handle it via nerf. I feel bad for people who didn't have a chance to feel the power of that weapon.

    • Blowing enemies away with ease is boring. Fun at first but stales up fast. I remember putting cheats into GTA and just dessimating everyone. I had fun. For an hour. And then each time I did the cheats the game became duller and duller. It ruined it for me. I don't want to be overpowered in this. It would just be digging the hole deeper.

        • Because no one's ever going to say "Wow, I killed that ogre way too quickly." or "Man, that boss needs more health."

            • Feeling powerful and walking through bullets, putting down enemies rapidly.........that's SUPPOSED to be why you, me and a ton of other people invested literally hundreds of hours into this game. That would freshen the game up. This shit? THis is getting stale. I'm not saying it's not addictive, it is. It keeps a casual like me playing every single day which is crazy. PvP helped make sure that pve suffers. Bungie keeps messing up when they don't separate the 2.

                I agree. One doesnt feel powerful in this game. Even vandals on earth patrol can kill you. That should not happen. In wow. Low level critters dont even aggro you. And if they do, and hit you THEY die instantly. Weapons dont feel powerfull here.

                • Gjallarhorn was OP in year one. It was so good it was a requirement to join most fireteams, but it was also insanely difficult to get for some people.

                    • Overpowered weapons are non-existent in PvE because the goal is to get the best gear possible...

                        • I completely disagree. You shouldn't be able to breeze through content that's made to be difficult with some ridiculous weapon.

                          • If you've played Far Cry 3 or 4 (didn't play 1 or 2) then you will understand PVE OPness once you get the special weapons.

                            • Well in pve your weapons are supposed to get stronger with the enemies, in destiny the enemies at they're highest level possible the weapons were killing to fast and that's why they were too strong

                              • There's something stronger than gjallarhorn guys It's very underrated & many people disregard this weapon. All you need is a Titan & Touch of Malice, use blessings of light & you're golden. (Dip in & out of blessings) You have virtually unlimited ammo, no need for synths. If you really want to set a record speed for killing a strike boss as fast as possible, roll with 2 Titans & 1 hunter. 1 Titan with blessings the other w/ weapons. Hunter with tether

                                • I think you may have stumbled onto something here. Since all the nerfs in pvp, they've had to nerf bosses like rockets McDickface to compensate.

                                    • I think. Presently. The most OP weapon in PVE would be.... 1k yard stare with trip tap, casket mag, and spray and play. Faster shots, more ammo than spindle, and you could use NTTE with it.
