The Gjallarhorn elitism got completely out of hand when the House of Wolves/Prison of Elders was released. Cast our minds back to the VoG and Crota's End glory days. Gjallarhorn was never a requirement for VoG. As for Crota's End, yes the elitism was there. However, most fireteam leaders were content with 2-3 Gjallarhorns in the team and after that the rest just made up the numbers. Now with the PoE where the loot is bad and there are more difficult/convoluted final boss encounters (particularly Skolas) with more unnecessary ads and a reduced fireteam compared to the Raids, no wonder its Gjallarhorn only. Yes the PoE can be completed without Gjallarhorn, but I think the main reason it is required in most fireteams as people want to be done as fast as possible. People are not playing Destiny for the enjoyment anymore, it is a unexplainable obsession in trying to acquire particular loot as fast as possible. Don't believe me? Start the VoG Fresh and the majority of the Fireteam will quit at the Gorgon Maze. Go onto the LFG/forums and most people are looking for Skolas CP, Gorgon Maze, Atheon, Deathsinger or Crota. Gjallarhorn's Wolf Pack Rounds will be nerfed. It's initial blast hits as hard as any other Rocket Launcher in the game, but the Wolf Pack Rounds are where it shines. Apparently they are reducing the WP Rounds damage by 33% in which it will still remain supreme. What will now happen is that Raids teams will now require 6 players with Gjallarhorn to make up for the lost damage if only 2 or 3 players were using it.
