Lemme make this real simple: Bungie nerfs the Gjallerhorn because Raid groups were too stubborn about who can and can't join their games, basically who has Gjallerhorn and who doesn't.
The scummy part of this community goes, "Durr hurr, I'm gonna require Gjallerhorn even more now to teach Bungie a lesson!"
Bungie says, "It looks like Gjallerhorn is [i]still[/i] the go-to weapon for Raid groups, so we're gonna nerf it some more."
[b][i]REPEAT THIS CYCLE UNTIL YOU IDIOTS LEARN THAT BEING A JERK TO PEOPLE OVER A WEAPON IN A VIDEOGAME IS PATHETIC AND WRONG.[/i][/b]
But by all means, if you're so afraid to do endgame content without Gjallerhorn, be my guest, and get your precious rocket launcher nerfed into the ground.

People are going to require Gjallarhorn more because it's an elitist weapon which means that people are going to want it in their group also for the amount of damage it deals regardless of the nerf to wolf pack rounds which won't even be that big of a nerf. Bungie didn't nerf it because it was hard to get into raids without it, they nerfed it because everyone was complaining about it and being little bitches. They just created a bigger problem though for people without the Gjallarhorn because now it's going to be required by a lot of people to get things done just as easy
