Wings of Sacred Dawn nerf needs to be reverted

I recently found out that Bungie made an inexplicable nerf to Wings of Sacred Dawn at some point since Edge of Fate, despite the exotic already struggling to find popularity. For some unfathomable reason, they removed its ability to reload your equipped weapon when you get a kill with it, which used to allow you to continue using the exotic's perk (which requires you to aim down sights) as long as you could keep getting kills. I haven't the faintest idea why they felt the need to make this already weak exotic completely useless, but I really can't think of any good reason not to revert the nerf. It was never an op exotic, it was just fun, and Bungie ruined that for no reason.

      They removed the reloading of your equipped weapons because it would cause solar bows to bug. While this was annoying I'd rather they have just disabled the reload effect when a bow is equipped rather than remove half the utility of it. I use wings of sacred dawn 90% of the time on my warlock.

      • Because they outta nowhere felt the need to futureproof it from breaking the game with future weapon perks and exotic weapons.
