Hi everyone,
My mates and I were completing the Spire of the Stars raid in hard mode and dropping the sleeping simulant's catalyst.. Done the catalyst, we noticed that the weapon isn't worth using anymore if compared to many other options out there.. so i'd remember about the nerf the sleeping had back in patch note 2.5.0.1 cos overused in gambit games to invade.. now in 2020, where we have many new light players joining the game and, probably, getting the sleeping as first exotic power weapon (with Whisper of the worm as well), why doesn't bungie give back some of the power to this "canonical weapon"?
it would be great seeing the sleeping back on track (even if not strong as it was back in the day)
this post is just an option brought to have just some thoughts about and also (maybe) getting some feedback for bungie about the weapon itself
GG Guardians, enjoy your gaming time!

What the hell is a sleeping simulant?
-
Hahaha, seriously, if you haven’t completed it now, you don’t need it.
-
They nerfed it over a game mode that most players dont even care about. Sleeper should be one of the most badass heavys. It fires a giant freaking laser beam! Like, wtf... Its worse than legendary linears, but takes up our exotic slot. They need to make sleeper useable again.

Sleeping stimulant? You mean like a bucket of cold water or slap in the face??

2 RepliesI don’t really know what you’re talking about. It’s not a bad weapon at all. Pretty good even. And the only nerfs I can remember we’re to ammo in gambit, and ricochet damage. Buffing it isn’t necessary. Also, it’s not Sleeping Simulant. It’s SleepER Simulant.

3 RepliesEdited by draycole: 6/9/2020 3:42:04 AMAnyone done damage numbers on this thing recently? Like how does it actually hold up? Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's never received a damage nerf on its initial shot has it? Only on the ricochets.

1 ReplyWelcome to Destiny, where god slaying demigods get statistically weaker as they get canonically stronger. Just so Bungo can take it easier at work.

Edited by Hal Jordan: 6/9/2020 12:15:31 PMI've said it before and I'll say It again, Imagine if it had triple Tap with box breathing, at the very least you get 1 shot back.

3 RepliesI used to call it TTK Warpriest melting machine and Titans’ best DPS toy for Aksis. Unless some sudden bubble or strafing player made it an easy suicide weapon. But it was fun to use it with a coordinated team. In D2 it’s barely a downgraded recycle and time wasting engine from what I heard. Got it, tried it, never bothered with it again.
-
I think all D1 players got their use out of sleeper. No need to bring it back.
-
Sleeper is alright in scourge of the past.
-
Queensbreaker understands its pain.
-
I think this is a perrect welcome for new light players to understand the gane they are playing. Everything is nerfed for a reason which is not relevant to everyone. My personal opinion is that it was nerfed due to the stream sniping effect it was having but it was such a long time ago that I could be wrong.
-
Sleeper should be good. It’s bullshit that the quest is long as hell and the neutered it because of gambit, like who the -blam!- cares?
-
They won't give it back to us because we broke bungies hydra in the izanami forge .. 3-4 shots boss was cooked because of the richochet rounds

Edited by The Hermit IX: 6/9/2020 9:02:04 AMI think I like sleeping simulant better 😂

Sleeping stimulant

Lmaoooo

Not useful anymore. Working as intended, job done

Edited by Yosemite Sam: 6/8/2020 11:51:06 PMDon't worry, I'm sure because this company is so original that when the sunsetting takes place, they will use it as a carrot. You know... Ghorn LW Thorn Icebreaker The Lie, etc... Can't wait to see what weapon they bring back from the first game this next season that is broken and I don't mean "OP" either. Edit: Oh yeah, almost forgot. Looks at my list, "you don't want to be using the same weapons for 10 years".
