I’m not taking crucible (shudders) but the arbalest against combatants match game shielding. I’m also NOT saying it should be good as the element matching the shielding but it should be better than it currently is against match game shields. If one sniper shot in the element ruins matched shielding then the arbalest definitely needs a slight buff. Maybe 2-3 rounds to break a match game shield? It’s an exotic and I only ever see this thing used in crucible nowadays !!
