Ok so we're getting places with the nerf, but the weapon has a couple underlying issues that I believe should be analyzed.
First is the hidden proximity perk. It gets in the way. It contradicts the weapon's purpose of killing bosses, and gets in the way often times when using the weapon for this purpose. If you frequent fjallarhorn, you know that while trying to shoot a boss (which it's meant for), a sad little thrall can trigger the detonation.
The weapon also has a slight bug. Occasionally, but often enough for it to be bothersome, all the wolfpack rounds will detonate at one, often not doing full damage, and eliminating damage over time and stun locking.

Agreed please get rid of the hidden proximity buff. Also please fix the bug where wolfpacks detonate instantly rather then over a few seconds. Sometimes they don't detonate at all or the damage doesn't register

1 ReplyMy problem is how they took the "must have" weapon of this game and simply toss it aside. That weapon alone kept a large number of players active in this game. That's not exactly the best marketing for a game, especially when there's no comparable weapon to the ghorn after TTK drops. If you're going to crap on your most coveted weapon, you better have something to replace it.

3 RepliesWith true exotics like Gjallarhorn, there is a cost to the power. The proximity detonation perk is something you need to be aware of and learn to avoid. I think instead of nerfing it, we need other high level Excalibur type weapons that provide other options for endgame events. Truth, Thunderlord, Super Good Advice, Hezen Vengeance, and Hunger of Crota are all excellent options to buff into awesomeness.

Actually the nerf hit wolf packs by 33% so overall it still does somewhere around 80%-85% of its damage before the nerf
