No one asked for these nerfs or should I say 99% of people never asked for it. These weapons (excluding black hammer) have lasted 2 DLCs which tells us one thing, you are not releasing better weapons with each DLC and you never will. Instead you make original release weapons weaker, so the new weapons in The Taken King look a lot more appealing to the market. YOU GREEDY F**KS!!!! Saying it's for the fans when they are screaming don't do it! YOU F**KEN LIARS!! Oh players are being excluded from Skolas' runs for not having a Gally? Do you want to know why? A majority of Destiny players are casual, like to have a bit of fun, they don't pour endless hours into it as they have a life. I pour every hour I can into the game even though I study full time, work part time and have a wife to invest in. Other people have much more commitments, so their skill level is not quite up to scratch, BUNGIE your customer age ranges from 10 to 60, I've met people of all ages the past year through your game and let me tell you there are a lot of bad players. Your hard content, 35 poe, hard raids, nightfalls, requires a moderately high above average skill for 2 reasons, team co-ordination is needed and STRONG weapons are needed as the enemies are HIGH IN NUMBERS and DO STRONG DAMAGE and have EXTREMELY HIGH HEALTH/armour and SHIELDING. It's not very common to have a set team who are available at the exact same times so LFG has become the middle ground, because of this you have a team who are challenged right off the bat because everyone's play style is different and it is not one size fits all, on top of that people cannot simply compete in your hardest content unless they have the right weapons BECAUSE IF THEY DON'T you'll be there for hours on end. Thus we have the cure, the GALLY. This makes up for a lack of team skill and power. If people are excluded it's because teams feel they have no choice, it is not discrimination it is about what works and matches the content you have released. Let me put it to you this way with Skolas: you'll need... -team co-ordination -fire power for high health captains vandals servitors and bosses (who spawn endlessly and chew up all your ammo anyway) -the skill of not dying -share a debuff -avoid one hit melee kills if you are damaged by at least one shot of a vandal weapon that tracks you even in invisible mode (hunters) -deactivate an object surrounded by angry high health overpowered individuals -everything is one level higher (skolas is probably 2 levels higher than us) The amount of tasks does not match a players arsenal in the slightest!!!! The GJALLAHORN ISNT EVEN A GAMEBREAKING WEAPON!!!!! It barely levels the playing field to give you a fighting chance even though you spend 85-99.9% of the time chipping at enemies behind cover as it is because of splash damage being able to kill you... and if you make the GALLY weaker YOU WONT JUST SEE A TEAM OF 1 or 2 GALLYS TAKING ON SKOLAS you will see 3 GALLYS IS A MUST DUE TO 2.0 NERF! I am not one to exclude 2 people from a skolas run for lacking a gally but don't try to play the saint bungie you money hungry greedy F**ks it's blatantly obvious you want taken king to sell well and your new exotics don't match up to black hammer ice breaker or gally.
