Trials needs help from the devs, we’re hitting incredibly low numbers each weekend and there was barely a bump in player pop even when TFS initially released.
-prismatic took over the playlist like every other PvP playlist, I truly believe the best option is to disable prismatic in trials/comp. It’s not competitive with prismatic, it ruins the integrity of these playlists. We all know the recent nerfs to prismatic hunter weren’t enough.
-the weapon meta is terrible, 340 pulses are far too easy to 2 burst with right now and they have a 0.67 TTK. Auto rifles and Khvostov are also still very strong.
-the LOOT IS TERRIBLE, people aren’t playing because the weapons aren’t worth playing for. All the best weapons currently are reprised ones (summoner, shayuras, eye of sol). We NEED some fresh new loot. Ideas: kinetic slot 140/120 hand cannon, kinetic slot slug shotgun, void rocket sidearm, rocket, 3-burst linear, eager edge sword. We don’t want lightweight bows, glaives, trace rifles, reskinned DMT scouts…
-special ammo system. This week going back to the 1 ammo every round + the crates has been awful. Everyone is back to running forerunner or hardscoping every lane with a sniper because there’s a surplus of special ammo. Too much shotgun or fusion ammo can be annoying too.
TLDR: sandbox is bad, loot is bad, trials population reflects that.

1 ReplyTrials guns as the hardest to get in the game, should have outlandish perk combos. guns with double damage perks armor with the passive set bonus of gaining extra points for wins in pvp(including trials) to incentivise going for it. AND, some kenetic weapons with nuts combos. Just nutty things like... Repulser Brace(which would be changed to work on any element debuff)+voltshot or incan incan in first slot, volatile in second. Just why not? make it goofy, they will come.
