Title says it all. This meta is complete garbage. In order to be successful in PvP activities(IB, Trials, etc.),you have to use one type of weapon: pulse rifles. You also have to use a sniper, in particular, Eirene SR4 and 1000 Yard Stare. Also, you have to use a sunbreaker. This meta is worse than the exotic hand cannon meta in year 1. Bungie, something needs to happen. Weapon rebalancing would be a good idea!
-
Whilst everyone is in their PoS meta I'll always be using a scout rifle and shotgun, why because I like using them and make them look op in others eyes
-
Butthurt is Butthurt.
-
The 'Thorn insta kill' meta was way worse. All guns are viable when used correctly
-
*takes entire post seriously then looks at OP's name* Hmm, I'm not sure if I should be taking this seriously or not.
-
HA you pretty much admitted that aim assist doesn't determine your sniping skill, Eirine has like 50 less AA than 1000 Yard. The reason I bring this up is because you mentioned 1000 yards in particular.
-
I'd rather have PRs then 3 self res locks with Viking funeral, bolt nades, and thorn and felwinters/efrideets. Ya feel me?

December patch

It's so meta to use the term meta.
-
Are you getting to the point where you'll need to summon your other self? This meta isn't nearly as bad as the BD with blink, TLW/Thorn, Felwinters, and a prox launcher was. But then, you are a hunter main.
-
You are on crack. The gun balance is better.
-
I've been using auto rifle and shot gun barely getting heavy ammo but yes sunbreaker as well and doing alright in IB usually top 3 on my team
-
I wouldn't say it's the worst. You at least get a fair number of pulse rifles to choose from. Pulse rifles do need to be looked at tho.
-
Butthurtception

Yeah. PvP is going to ruin pulse rifles now. Not that I care who uses what in PvP, I do just fine with an auto rifle but this is going to trip Bungie's "fun" radar. They don't like it when players prefer something. If a player likes a weapon, it's time to change that real quick.
-
I mean, ive gotten both of my phantom medals with Treads Upon Stars and Stillpiercer, so pulse rifles really arent required lol.

But my Assault Rifle...

Edited by nomorbountisXP: 11/19/2015 4:22:33 PMI'm getting tired of these posts about pulse rifles. Just because everyone uses them doesn't mean everyone has to. You know that bounty which requires you to get 10 kills with each weapon type? I can get that done in under an hour. You people must really suck I swear. No wonder I loose playing solo in IB clash. Fml. Some remedies are the following Tlaloc Inward Lamp (wrecks) Hawkmoon Supercell (wrecks) Oh Butthurt I didn't realize it was you. Name says it all. You have summoned yourself.
-
You must be rather bad if you require all those to win... I run auto rifles. I use both shotguns and snipers as well as the occasional side arm. There are 4 heavy weapon types that all are effective. And I run striker/defender (running sunbreaker for the sunbreaker emblem quest)
-
Do u miss trials of thorn and shotguns that could outrange a sniper ? I personally dont, if you do you have no skill, to use a sniper you need skill, unlike a shotgun...
-
Good thing you're here. You've summoned yourself.
-
My absolute only problem with it is the fact that hand cannons have been wiped off the map
-
I can't believe how far you've fallen. I used to believe in you.
-
Can you summon yourself?
-
Nonsense. I always use pulse rifles even before they were OP, but now I use autos and have more kills now with autos than pulse. Meta works.
-
Butthurt is...[i]butthurt?[/i]
-
Auto rifles actually work Scout rifles actually work Hand cannons still work if you have some good range You just need to stop complaining before we have a TDB/HoW thorn situation again
