So, going by that logic, if they nerf handcannons now, it will be because of overuse in PvE. Because they are the most used weapons. It will have nothing to do with the fact that the exotic variants are very powerful in PvP. Just like the auto rifles were. P.S. those statistics Bungie released about weapon usage before the nerf didn't reflect endgame players. Nearly everyone who bought this game used autos, because in pretty much every fps game, automatic weapons are the easiest to use. Same with destiny. The people who just bought destiny to try it used autos because that's what they were used to.
