Before anyone tells me to get good or calls me a scrub let me start off by saying this, I play a fairly decent amount of crucible. Usually in the top 3 while maintaining an overall K/D of 1.0 or higher. I'd say I'm a decent player and destinydb rates me at a 13, I rarely use shotguns or fusion rifles mainly snipers. I never call any gun OP I just find ways to outgun it. The new vanquisher however need tweaked or nerfed.
I'm not saying the gun is OP because I don't have it and I haven't used it. Something is up with it though, it's unbalanced in some sort of way. I kept getting killed by it and kept trying to find ways to beat it. It seemed as though unless I sniped the user it would outgun me. I just kept trying.
My final straw was when I picked up heavy ammo and was going against it with a corrective measure, the vanquisher outgunned a heavy machine gun and I had the drop on him. I self ressed to finish him off, smacked the guy beside me killing him and picking up the shield. The guy with the vanquisher had half health and gunned down my shield and killed me. I killed him at the same time but for him to outgun a suros with me having my shield and him having next to no health is ludacris.
No there was nobody else around, no there was no lag, no there was no other source of damage. I know how to play, and I know about strafing, and other methods of winning firefights. This gun is just crazy, I don't know if it's the rate of fire or the impact but something about it needs tweaked. I'm hoping to pick it up tonight and see for myself. I'll edit with more comments afterwards.
Edit: after getting the new vanquisher I realized that the heavy incident was probably lag. I actually ended up sharding it because it would never be used and it would take up space in my vault. The gun is horrid lol.

Get good scrub +6 guardian tears Shithead

It's a normal AR.. And with a 1.12 kd u'r not 'decent'
-
There's nothing really overpowered about it. You were probably just playing against a good team who were all using it. Compared to SUROS it's a modest weapon. It was my first legendary and I dropped it when I learned to use hand cannons.
-
It was probably the Vanq user's lag or something, I love mine but it's far from what you're describing.
-
Just you. Its an OK weapon. What makes it just OK is the low capacity mag.
-
I feel like a lot of guns need to be tweaked. The Crucible is not as balanced as before. Any gun that has Full Auto runs rampant and Fusion Rifles still piss me off. Shotguns I can outgun. Fusion Rifles are much harder. An experienced Fusion Rifler can get all hits almost no matter what you try. And as someone who usually uses a HC(besides TLW. Haven't brought Thorn in yet either.) it's getting harder to actually do great in the Crucible. I still do well, but with all the Full Auto guns, I sometimes get killed before I have the chance to get in the last shot.
-
The old vanquisher was wayy better.
-
I actually want to buy one because the only other legendary I have is shadow price and it's the one

Editado por BigBearded69: 12/12/2014 12:42:41 AMVanquisher is a suberb gun bro. High impact decent rate of fire, Its stability perks (and first gen allowing quicker reloads for short time on some kills) is not that far off from my maxxed suros regime. The difference the 1/4th stability (compared to suros) makes, and the recoil how near the end it trails up, means a user has to have that much more finesse. Besides the the new vanq starts at what 302? (not to mention if he had the resources and time it could be full upgraded) Even tho crucible is equalized/normalized he still has an edge and he could be just that much better. Try using your enviroment or nades. Nades plus focus fire at same time takes care of anyone.

No. Its just you.
-
Don't get in your head about it. Try harder. Outgun those bastards! I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!

Editado por LimitTester: 12/12/2014 2:20:29 AMI believe the correct term you're looking for would be 'tweaking'. Tweaked would imply, it is already "fixed" and as such, a thing of the past. Just...fyi. PS: All the new Crucible/Vanguard/Faction guns are terribad in pvp, compared to the old counterparts, they just pale in comparison.
