The pulse rifle/handcannon meta is getting old
Its been the pulse/handcannon meta since house of wolves. slightly nerf fast RoF pulses. Give scouts and autos a huge buff. PULSES AND HANDCANNONS ARE OLD. Watching people use autos that arent a bullet hose and scouts that arent mida competitively would be nice for a change. Bungie does say each weapon will have a rotational meta, at least thats what i hear alot of people on forums say. So if this is true, when will autos and scouts have their time? We have been in a pulse/handcannon meta for almost 2 years now...

I too do not really enjoy the pulse meta. The thing that really gets me is the aim punch of pulse rifles, they hit like a truck! I mean a full burst on your head and your reticle is on the roof, it's out of hand. I haven't heard of anyone else complaining about that so maybe it's just me and my disliking of pulse rifles in their current state. Plus it's infuriating when you see easy mode hacksaw, just instant rage haha. I hate that thing as much as the first thorn. I think they need to balance TTK the same on all weapons but just adjust impacts so the TTK is the same across the board. JUST FOR CRUCIBLE THOUGH. That would finally bring somewhat better balance I think. I mean a hand cannon that can 1 shot you to a 1/4 health at scout range? That's just ridiculous for PVP. Or a pulse that hits like a Mack truck with zero recoil? I mean it's fun to have diversity and a wide range of weapons to use but until the TTK is the same across the board there's always gonna be meta shifts with any buffs/ nerfs made.

2 RepliesBungie did some interesting things. First we put in a game mode that is as rush a game mode as was ever invented. Then they start handing out the most agressive shotguns in the game. then they start handing out the most perfect low impact high fire rate pulse rifles in the game? I don't quite follow the logic? They nearly had problems with grasp being a plague from omnigul farming and now that type of pulse rifle is available from multiple sources and the iron banner one can even drop with high caliber rounds and 100% stability. They are handing out a hand cannon at the crucible vendor that is as good as any of the luna's that people looked for for months. It is almost like they were looking to create problems?

1 ReplyNot sure I agree with ya. Lots of folks still using the multi-tool and shotguns. Its definately turned into mostly shottys. You see handcannons every now and then but I definately see more pulses being used. I think the meta is in a decent spot as far as primaries are concerned... you can go in with whatever primary you prefer and do well if your skilled enough with said primary. But its mostly shotty's in secondary slots. What are you wanting to change?

1 ReplyEdited by PwNy: 10/14/2016 3:51:06 PMLol at handcannon meta. They are the worst weapon to use against pulses because the flinch basically erases your bullets. But I agree I hate pulse rifles. The super high RoF ones are pretty cheap. Plus it makes no sense they kill in the same number of bursts as slower ones.

1 ReplyDid you just ignore the entire scout rifle meta that just happened?

2 RepliesDid you play when people were getting super salty over doctrine of passing. Lots of people would get owned in PvP by it. I loved it for pve. I don't really pvp at all really. And as for scout. I don't know much about pvp, I pve more. But didnt we use scouts a ton in vanilla to how, i always used the solar one from VoG
