Did Ice Breaker Deserve the Nerf?
Explain your answer, I'd say no because it fulfilled a certain niche that an exotic should do.

Noooo
-
It's too situation to constitute this change. I can't even remember the last time I equipped it.
-
No.....there just wasn't any need for it at all.....no one was complaining that regin was too fast. They just made it more frustrating to use.
-
I rarely use mine now. At least let me pick up ammo like the Invective!
-
pointless nerf, ice breakers are barley used as it is it seems.
-
Not rly... but dont mind... the black hammer though... they just made it crap
-
It's just 18 more seconds to get full ammo. That's not that long.
-
Absolutely not. This is just straight up dumb.
-
Now they are shards.
-
I'd say no, but the nerf is not a huge one.
-
They completely -blam!-ed up ice breaker and made it unusable for both PvP and PvE. Now take 48 seconds for your ammo to fully recharge instead of 30.

4 Repliesit was just fine before... looks like ill be breaking out my e.spear with field scout, surplus and clown cartridge. 6-8 round mag 24 in reserves 1 green box = 20 rounds.

Bumped

1 ReplyPretty stupid, really. If I'm bored and decide to camp-snipe-solo something, they just made it drag out for longer. Guess it gives me time to grab another beer?
-
I have no problem with it, when I'm using it I don't rush and don't run through ammo like with other weapons. What's a few more seconds?
-
1 ReplyThey really have to fix this nerf I think. At the least, increase base ammo to 8 rounds and start with 3 in the box after revive. They've completely eliminated even the possibility of using this for pvp. Or, increase base to 12 so that you can bank up rounds for a while and allow picking up ammo packages. They've really destroyed icebreaker with this nerf.

Ice breaker was a useful tool and I have seen many raids mat he's lost even with a full team of icebreakers. By extending it's recharge time some of the novelty and usefulness of the tool has been taken from it. I understand wanting to nerd things for the generally whiney and complaint driven pvp players however bringing these nerf's over to pve was unnecessary.
-
1 Reply6seconds was alot to begin with now with 9 its worthless
-
3 Replies5 seconds already felt like an eternity! This will just make me think twice to pull out the weapon.
-
The shitty part is, I actually like using Ice breaker as a wepon, not just to stock up ammo. They have effectively made this gun useless other than to take almost a minute to get some ammo to switch back. It won't stop people from using camping methods, it will just take longer.
-
6 RepliesWhat's the point in increasing the recharge time? I really don't get it. It's gonna take more time. Games are supposed to be fun.
-
2 RepliesSeems to me like if it's popular it gets nerfed. I think bungie just gave me aids.
-
1 ReplyWhen was ice breaker ever brought up to ask for a nerf anyways
-
The only reason to sit and snipe on top was to get through oricales at a steady pace once. Not to be cool hanging out on top sniping crap.
-
Yes. So much of the end-game in PvE has become either hanging back and sniping with Ice Breakers.....or rolling up with multiple Ghorns and blowing the screen up. The fact that two boss fights in the PoEs had to be "nerfed", shows that Bungie was finding it harder to make boss fights that were hard enough so that multiple Ghorns or Ice Breakers couldn't make a mockery of it.....while still being easy enough to be playable by teams that don't have these weapons.
