They buffed PRs, but didn't buff HCs. They did a mild nerf.
With so many people moving away from ARs, HCs and PRs increased in use. If ARs were buffed, I think you will see a reduction in HC use.

Ah yes, I considered Xur's 3.. Maybe 4? Times of selling the Last Word a buff. They claimed to have nerfed Hand Cannons to Mid-Close Range combat, yet I can still land a 111 Crit from across the map on Shores of Time. I highly doubt TLW and Thorn will stop being common after AR buffs. Then again I could be wrong. I look forward to finding out.
