  • Wear armor that reduces solar damage. No nerf or adjustment necessary. Fixes = glitches which we already have plenty of.

      So the hunter smoke is super only then? No dot unless in shadowshot. Better start using quiver.

      • Just remove 1 tick of damage, solves too long burn time problem and too much damage problem

        • Ive got a better idea double the damage of each burn tick and half the time it lasts. Same damage but youre not out for 18 seconds.

            My opinion is that DoT shouldn't kill a guardian. That would have fixed thorn without any of the other stupid nerfs it got.

          • See, this is where you're wrong. Instead of completely removing the perk, let's address the issue. Firebolts burn too long. How do you fix this problem? Increase the damage, but reduce the burn time. This will make the grenade do the same damage, but in a shorter time. Sort of like condensing.

            • Make it like Thorn 2 damage for 3 seconds. It will show Bungie how bad the messed up with Thorn

            • I think we should delete the accounts of anyone asking for any kind of nerf.

              • Why don't you run full recovery and stop whingeing about a grenade which can't 1 shot kill and any smart guardian can jump to avoid them. They are the weakest grenade to the smartest guardian... Git gud

                • Just chop a warlocks arms off that should sort firebolt out :-p

                • Just make them do 170 damage instantly and I'd be fine with it. In the time I'm waiting for my health to regen the warlock already has more than half of his grenade charged.

                  • Can we all just agree a fair compromise would be to reduce burn time but keep the same total damage? Seeing how most people complain about the duration and their damage was already nerfed a while back.

                    Yet another post about firebolt grenades needing a nerf. Firebolt is already balanced. They are not a one-hit kill grenade on full health. Sunsingers must use 2 perk slots in their subclass in order to make guardians "feel the burn". There is no exotic that provides an additional firebolt grenade (unlike titans and hunters - lightning and tripmine). Yes, there is voidfang vestment, but that's spawn with grenade...so death has to happen. Nerfing anything more on that class would render it useless. Grenades and melee are what the class is centered around. I main a warlock sunsinger. Been around since alpha, and you know what kills me more? The ever-reaching pulse grenade and pesky tripmines. I don't know what everyone else's strategy is, but there are situations [b]you should just know[/b] to expect incoming grenades. I rarely die from firebolt burn. If you're in Trials and you see a sunsinger with firebolt setup, don't bunch up, plain and simple.

                      • Just same like thorn. Less dots and less dmg per dot.

                      • Warlocks need to carry a 3rd grenade. 2 is not enough.

                          • People still worry about a grenade that can't kill even the weakest armor guardian????? Meanwhile there are grenades that can get double and triple or even higher number of kills.....all from one grenade.....ok

                                • Burn for twice as much damage for half as long. It's not the damage that's the problem, it's how long it makes you 1-2 shot.
