It would be nice have some kind of word come down about this. Weapon sunsetting is gonna be a deciding factor for me as to whether I really want to continue playing Destiny. If it is for sure gonna be a thing, then frankly, i'd just prefer to leave now.

The rest of this is just me complaining about it. So crybaby engage.

It bums me out because it just feels lazy and pointless to me. A way to nerf things like the outlaw/rampage combo without having the balls to actually just nerf it back to d1 crowd control levels.

Do you wanna know why spare rations hasn't been kicked off it's throne as the god of hand cannons? because no legendary 150's have a perk pool that competes with it AND 110's, 140's and 180's are fundamentally useless in comparison. Due in large part the hand cannon range nerfs ruining the whole personality of certain archetypes.

Also, outside of a couple of weapons most of what you've introduced since shadowkeep weapon wise have been archetypes that we are SATURATED with. we don't need more 180 or 110 hand cannons. we don't need more 390 pulses in the energy slot. The Dawn weapons were the best overall in terms of variety that we've had since shadowkeep launched, but oops you can't get them anymore fomo.

Why do people keep using damage perks instead of other non damage perks? Maybe it's the nerf to crit multipliers that came at the same time as the half hearted nerf to kill clip and rampage? In the process making those perks ALL THE MORE VALUABLE?

Also, why on earth did luke smith compare a breachlight to a hand cannon in the directors cut? of course breachlight isn't going to replace your spare rations they operate in different ranges!

Bungie has set us up brilliantly to have a stale meta and use that as proof that luke smith is right about sunsetting. I legitimately don't know if they did it on purpose or just bumbled their way into it.

This is gonna be such a unpopular opinion and i know i will get downvoted to hell and aback. Honestly bungie needs to undo the nerfs to crit multipliers and FINALLY put the damage perks back down to D1 levels. My finnala's peril with outlaw/reactive reload did just fine. more than fine actually.

Whiny crybaby is done crying now. please now hurl abuse at me. i love you too. <3
