Agreed. Tier 12 won't help you if your bad. Could it help a really good player in Trials? Sure, Maybe once or twice tops when they would actually need it 6 seconds faster.... A really good player would adapt and use something else for those 6 seconds.... I would rather run multiple tier 11 builds on all Subclasses than run one tier 12 for one subclass. T12 is just overhyped. JMO though. At the end of the day your character is yours to run how you please! Just remember to Have Fun!!!

Do you really blame a loss or victory is trials purely on that? For that matter. Gaming is about having fun. It's not about k/d's. Having a T12 build is just another way someone with an ego can say I did something you can't. Those kinda things don't matter to me.

I could brag about how I had a T13 build and it wouldn't matter. These people forget that games are made to be fun. Granted, destiny is losing it's fun factor to me very quickly.
