The Crucible is overrun with Pulse Rifles, Handcannons, and Shotguns. The majority of AR's are trash, up to the point where they don't even contend with the top five weapons in Crucible. We should see Bungie buff the impact & stability of all AR base stats by 2 - 3%. Range can stay low where it's at. What are your thoughts?
Edit: the current issue is when I engage in an advantageous one-on-one gunfight, built for me to win and lose simply because my weapon is underwhelming. This lets us know that these weapons are terribly imbalanced. Granted I'm not the strongest of players but I understand tact & game flow.

Bump!

-
I really don't like AR's and I agree with OP.
-
Suck ball sac
-
Bump it up.
-
ARs should not have had ANOTHER damage reduction to begin with... I'm all for restoring the damage but, not the range/stability.
-
I just feel like making pulse rifles a little stronger then buffing ARs back to normal would work
-
I was using for the people and the impact is higher than I remember but the rate of fire had dropped. Has anybody else noticed this?

I got Suros today and it's really good in PvP without his perks
-
I'm no AR user, but I never see an ad in anyone's hand. Destiny should be diverse, so they should buff it.
-
Yes. I still do great with vanquisher, but it could do better with the buff
-
You don't see them because other weapons are just much better to use you know since everyone wants the fastest ttk, I use them still but I do think the nerf was too much and uncalled for especially since it was the third one.
-
ESPECIALLY high rate of fire AR. Theyre damn well unusable now!

This community continues to amaze me. Us day 1'ers know... Back in the day people bitched and begged for Auto Rifles to get trashed and hand cannons buffed. Both happened and now that ARs are crap and handcannons dominate the bitching and moaning continues. What the community doesn't realize is that you asked for this... Dont blame Bungie. Blame yourselves. I cannot count how many "nerf Suros" "nerf shadow price" "nerf ARs" threads I saw. You simply got your wish.
-
AR never supposed to be strong in any game.
-
If Bungie wants ARs to be close range death machine, why not just keep the original damage and decrease the range significantly

I sexually Identify as a MLG Quickscoper. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of playing Modern Warfare and quickscoping disgusting Hardscopers. People say to me that a person being part of Faze is Impossible and I'm a -blam!-ing pleb but I don't care, I'm beautiful. I'm having a plastic surgeon install an aimbot, hacking software and a 100 dank memes on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me "Snipar's" and respect my right to kill filthy casuals and to t-bag your corpse. . If you can't accept me, you're a filthy hardscoper and need to check your prestige. Thank you for being so understanding.

I tried the necro earlier today and I went 20-10 and won the clash match, if they were buffed I could see me using it more often.
-
Or at least just in PVE... Some of my favorite guns just collect dust in the vault now and I don't even care about being competive. Just want to have fun
-
Buff,buff,buff!!!! AR's are crap now in PVE to. I can adjust my game in crucible and use what's best for kills. But I miss my powerful AR's in PVE.
-
Ill keep saying the same... Dont blame the gun for being bad when the oen that sucks is YOU. I get my kills with a khvstov(i really dont remember the name) so stop bitching about AR's.
-
Whats with these stupid ass posts. All yall lil kids jus upset your favorite weapon cant outgun every other gun type. Get good or get out.
-
AR's still melt people pretty well. People only use pulse rifles because they were worthless before, so it's new and fun to have them actually work. They were supposed to be jack of all trades, in between the optimal ranges of an AR and a Scout Rifle, and that's exactly where they fit now.
