Can someone seriously justify the Black Hammer nerf?
I really don't see why this is getting nerfed at all. Who can convince me? It makes no sense...
-
2 RepliesUnlimited ammo and 30 second boss kills. That sound right to you kids?
-
If you can't figure out why that gun was OP then you need to think harder. Or maybe think a little bit in general, instead of instantly questioning.

Edited by RichDunbar: 7/20/2015 7:11:17 PMBecause we're not spending enough time killing Sepiks, the Archon Priest and Fallen Walkers. They must fix that... It must take longer...

It was never meant to have the ability of unlimited ammo, because that's a perk for a weapon of the exotic level, now it is an above average legendary sniper that has the capability to never be reloaded until fully out of ammo
-
If using the black hammer makes not fun because you can kill something within minutes then don't use the damn sniper. Use something else.

Bungie has to stretch this game out for 10 years, we don't need people beating it so fast.

8 RepliesEdited by ShadowAngel9228: 7/20/2015 6:12:56 PMJustified. There, I justified it. Nah, seriously the gun makes it no fun killing a boss in minutes. Get a whole fire team using it and boom, mission done. I like challenges, not 30 second fights. Same goes for ghally. FYI I have both so there's no saltiness due to me not having them, its just to easy to play thus game.

Who cares it never worked anyhow.
-
It is supposed to be a legendary but is special infinite ammo sound more like exotics sooo... Two choices, stay legendary less op, become exotic so can't team up with gjalla, thorn, mida...

17 RepliesThere isn't a good reason for this. This will effectively make Black Hammer useless. You have to be shooting at a boss that doesn't move that much and have fantastic aim. It rewarded those very talented snipers who are capable of landing precision shots while moving and their target moving( I am not one of those)around. Now there will be zero incentive to use BH. You are going to run out of ammo very quickly. White nail = instant reload. Wow...once the nerf is applied and it drains your ammo reserves, it will be a worthless perk. It also takes away the incentive to do Crota normal to try and obtain it. I don't get it.

Because the way it was, it was the arguably the second most powerful exotic in the game. Now it's just a sweet legendary. As it should be. Besides, God forbid you need to kill some ads and run over their corpses to pick up a green brick. Sheesh.

5 RepliesPost 2.0 Weapons Patch, White Nail will still be on Black Hammer. It will still automatically reload with 3 consecutive precision shots. The ONLY difference is that it will consume ammo from your supply instead of generating it out of unicorns & Leprechauns.. The amount of ammo you can carry with Black Hammer is going to be increased. At the very least, you are still going to be able to lay down 18 shots uninterrupted, which NO OTHER SNIPER RIFLE IN THE GAME CAN DO. Black hammer still hits hard, still does Solar damage, still has Hive Disruptor. There's already 2 special weapons that generate their own ammo, and they are both exotics. No need for another exotic Solar Sniper Rifle.

1 ReplyProbably play testing ttk content "this is too easy with existing weapons, too much work to make the play mechanics more challenging, we'll just nerf weapons"
-
Everyone is acting like special ammo is hard to find lmao
-
It was uncalled for.

Edited by Hoots711: 7/20/2015 6:05:18 PMIt makes zero sense. Ill take a FS spear reloading 3 times over 18 shots vs a BH that may reload as many as 6 times over 18 shots for nearly all encounters. Look... the encounters that BH are useful on (aka walkers and sepkis and maybe AP) wont be any harder. Just more annoying. ohh, and PS. hey crota grinders (and yes, i still have a fireteam member who has not rng'd a BH...) we made your grind for one (or 3) BHs completely worthless. *wink wink* which is the exact opposite of the kind of patches we should be getting at this point. hey veteran player. You know that walker you have literally killed 1000 times in this game (bc that is the extent of our content...)? Well we made it more annoying for you. ENJOY! Its not a "end of the world" patch or anything, just stupid and makes zero sense IMHO. The gun is a throw away now... as the O.P. said, im still waiting for someone to convince me otherwise.

Easy. Bungie wants you to play their game their way.
-
Should've just made it exotic if they wanted to nerf it.
-
It takes out bosses faster than icebreaker and its not exotic
-
Too good for a legendary i think.

2 RepliesSo much logic fail in here it's unreal. Who gives a shit if you have to reload your weapon? Reloading doesn't make anything more difficult. And a perk that lets you skip a reload is garbage. Black Hammer will lose the only thing that set it apart from the others. 18 shots without reloading isn't a good perk. If you don't understand this I honestly don't know what to tell you. If you don't care then fine, good for you. Go discuss something else because the perk didn't hurt anyone's game experience and this discussion has nothing to do with you. It is a fun sniper to use. It makes the game more fun. So saying you're glad it's nerfed makes you the reason this game is getting crappier and also makes you a troll.

A weapon was OP and trivialized boss encounters and was subsequently nerfed? Welcome to every MMO ever for the past 15 years. Enjoy your stay.

2 RepliesA better change would have been to chamge white nail so that it behaved simikar to string of curses... refilling the mag on a kill.
-
I just got black hammer about a month ago now. All i have left to upgrade is the last 5 radiant shards and an e-light. Now I'm not sure if i want to put an e-light in it. What's going to replace the perk they are nerfing?
-
10 RepliesWhat other sniper can you hit 18 shots without reloading, None. It will still out DPS ANY sniper. I agree with the nerf 100% because Black Hammer is currently acting like an Exotic.
