This Week At Bungie 11/18/2021

I was against that nerf too. It was one of the dumbest nerfs in the game and it was entirely on Bungie.

Suros was strong and autos were overused but not because they were broken. TLW and Hawkmoon were strong in that era too, but it didn't help that every other fucking bounty at the time including IB ones required Auto Rifle kills. Bungie nerfs and has always nerfed based on pouplarity and usage rather than stopping and thinking about why some things are being overused.

Same thing happened in Taken King when 1000 Yard Stare got decimated for being the most used sniper in Destiny history at the time. Didn't take into account that it was a sniper with decent stats that everyone got and the only other comparative sniper at the time was Eirene which only came around every so often at the gunsmith. Not to mention how basically almost every raid encounter was played out at range
