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.

It's like I posted somewhere else. Look at most games. Assault rifles are the most used in most predominantly PVP games. Call of duty being just one, but arguably the biggest example. Assault rifles aren't grotesquely overpowered, they're just the easiest to use. The don't involve as much thought as some others. Holding down the trigger just makes it easier for some people. But then you have the option to tap the trigger and get more accuracy out of it, firing in bursts. Personally, I like to see accuracy with semi auto weapons rewarded. I loved World at War because of that. Semi autos were king basically. I think they should go back to where they were.
