[b]Before everyone rages on me, read this post through and hear me out! [/b] 1. I'm sure everyone has read the Update 2.0 and went through all the weapon tuning. But this is the atom bomb of the group. Bungie is planning to nerf Destiny’s holy grail and savior aka Gjallarhorn. I'm happy they're doing that. NOT because I don't have one and I'm bitter, but because one weapon was not meant to dominate a game to such a degree, and this is only a problem among the community because Bungie waited so long to do it. If they’d nerfed it back months ago before it became the game’s lord and savior, it wouldn’t have been a problem. But by allowing it to run rampant for so long, everyone who has collected their Gjallarhorn in the meantime now feels let down. The actual nerf is some unspecified reduction in Wolfpack Round damage, and while the community is more than a little mad about this, you have to take a step back and realize that you cannot simply allow a weapon to exist that is 200% better than anything else in the game. You have to step in at some point, and though they did so way too late, it has to be done. 2. People that have Gjallarhorns really do depend on it. Every time I'm on LFG, I see multiple posts that claim, "Must have Gally" . People get into this mindset where they think you need a gally to be able to beat anything. I don't need a gally for the Nightfall, my "poor mans gally" aka Hunger will do just fine. But as this dependency creates chaos when Bungie says they're going to nerf it. 3. Think back and look at games such as Halo, Gears of War, Call of Duty, Battlefield, etc. They all had those certain weapons that were good, but not 1 weapon that was so good, other guns in that class became irrelevant. WE NEED THIS NERF! 4. The nerfing of the Gjallarhorn will now make other Rocket Launchers relevant once more! For all the Gjallarhorn users, let me know what you think about this? I'm interested in hearing your opinions. Thank you! -Method

    ..you see there is two big problems! 1. extreme lack of content just force you to Gjallahorn everything in order "just to finish it because this boss have two mill. of health. and I kill it 1000 times already! 2. all other missile launchers are dumbed down so hard that they become useless! so, of course everyone will use the best weapons they have! why would one use the Truth when is powerful same as 365 void sniper?! ..all exotic weapons should stand out and be powerful! ..or long story short. Gjallahorn is getting nerf from wrong reasons!

    • See I don't understand why people call Gally a crutch. I don't blame people for wanting to kill the same boss for the 200th time a little faster. But you're right, let's stick with the motto - if nothing is special, then no one will cry. Way to be LEGEND! Pfffft.

    • I don't have a gally and this is just stupid, the nerd makes me not want one, there's specific guns in this game that are supposed to be superior above all else. That's why it's a loot game but when you nerf the guns hardest to get its bullshit, I for one am done with this game, the developers have shit on us to many times and this, this draws the fūcking line, I'm pissed and I'm rallying as many as I can to drop this game because BUNGIE has fūcked this game beyond repair

        • Gjallarhorn is a time saver. I went from release till 2 1/2 months ago without a Gjallarhorn. It is not a crutch. I stopped actively playing destiny a month after HoW dropped because destiny turned into a giant grind fest and I got burnt out. There are two reasons why Gjallarhorn was nerfed. 1. To extend the life of currently available content. 2. To make room for TTK exotics and provide an incentive for people to buy TTK. In the end, its all about money.

          • Whats wrong if someone wants to use a weapon as a crutch. Its their choice. We are just repeating the same shit content weve done a hundred times already. Basically we just want to be done with it as quick as possible for the rewards. Sure if we wanted more of a challenge we could use shitty weak weapons and if thats what you want yo do fine. Thats your choice. No ones stopping you. Use green weapons if your that desperate for a challenge. The point is destiny is controlling how they think we should be playing and im not ok with that and many others arent ok with that. So please stop defending this kind of manipulative controlling behaviour by bungie.

            • I disagree. I feel a game like this, that's about collecting loot, should have 1 weapon that's just ridiculous. It gives people something to strive to get. Look at how many haters stick around because they're "only playing until I get ghorn and then I'll quit for good". The Gjallarhorn isn't the problem. The issue is the stale gameplay. We use Gjally because it's quick and we're tired of the hamster wheel of content. Quit punishing our weapons to try and create a "fresh" experience.

            • 30% decrease to Wolfpack rounds damage? You'll barely see the difference lol. PvE players act like GJALLARHORN will be worse than Dragons Breath

                  • I agree but disagree. I agree in the fact that no weapon shall be over powered and that one has a special ability to it and lacks something else. But I disagree too because now it will be harder to do skolas and other crap with lack of power in others

                    • I have Gally and I want it nerfed. It makes the game to easy so it's not fun it's just a grind you do things because you have to not because they're hard. I'm happy about all of the nerfs honestly.

                      • As a owner of 2 Gallys. I can say that I agree. I love the weapon, but I hate it when my friends always ask me to pull it out on lesser important targets. I usually don't ask for Gally users in LFG because I know one Gally and two other rocket launchers are enough for Skolas. And in Crota, there are plenty of launchers that can take out his shields. I'm happy that I can use my Fear and Ash Factory in PvE instead of PvP
