The glaive crutchers didn’t like this one.
All that needs to be done is to change glaives to not be able to fire while blocking. So the damage resistance can stay, but can’t be 100% free.

Thing is, that’s the whole design of glaives. Shooting while blocking is one of the main features, by removing the ability to shoot while blocking strips the identity of them and would make them absolutely terrible. All they need is a DR nerf in PvP, that’s it. Remember Heir Apparent? The 95% DR shield is what made that gun so hated and powerful.

The glaive can't one shot for the most part, just a way to be able to reliably stop them from bot walking at you and not taking very much damage. Maybe let you be able to crit like heir apparent and keep the dmg res at 65 or even 75%

[quote]True, just threw a number out there that could work. But knowing bungie with that nerf they’ll accidentally increase it to 300%[/quote] Who knows. They said in an interview that they have one guy working on glaives. I’m not sure if thats more or less than they usually assign to an entire weapon type.
