And it's exactly the same now due to piss poor yr2 weapons. I only run the Raids each week but even before then weapons never changed and I think I've used the same weapons pretty much the whole time since I hit 40. Primary - Hung Jury / Malice for Daughters & Oryx Secondary - Spindle / 1000 Yard Stare when using Malice Heavy - Raid MG or Sword. The variation now is worse than last year. Least shottys were a viable option for PvE.

    If all you do is the raid, it's hardly surprising you would use a narrow range of weapons. Malice is pretty useless outside the raid. I do agree about shottys, they've been nerfed too hard in PvE but they were pretty OP after the buff, TBH. I had a full auto/field scout/litc void Hide n Seek that made even the VoG Praetorians hide in the corner and cry. When HoW dropped I re-rolled the replacement Dead Orbit shotty (can't remember the new name) to be nearly identical in the other elements. It was basically the same gun, just reskinned, btw, so it's not like the diversity in Y1 was infinite. As for the new exotics: Swords are really really good, funny how everyone just kinda forgets they are new and awesome alternatives to the gally and just want to be salty. Telesto is great, and Zhalo is almost a better thunderlord. Tlaloc is amazeballs. All the crazy people who spent weeks theorycrafting about the Sleeper quest are just nerdhurt about wasting their time and disregard how much damage it can really do (tho the timegating thing I can understand being upset about). Hereafter has some potential but is overshadowed by the spindle and 1K. Last I checked Hawkmoon and Red Death still work, and NTTE and Jade Rabbit are highly underrated because the vendor Hung Jury is so good. (IMO, those 2 vendor weapons being so great (1K and hung jury) is more responsible for people not liking the new exotics than the exotics themselves.) [b]TL;DR[/b]: The new exotics might not be ballerhorns but people are too salty to realize how good they actually are.

  • That's the exact same loadout I use.

  • I'm basically the same for the raid. Grasp / Malice for Daughters and onwards Spindle / 1000 Yard when using Malice Raid MG for the entire thing As for typical day-to-day destiny stuff (when I was playing it day-to-day), I never switched out from Grasp (as it's the only year 2 Pulse Rifle of that archetype) I switched around with the sniper a bit. I enjoy the Hakke one I got from the gunsmith. Then it's either Raid MG or exotic sword, depends what I'm doing. Just not much variation at all. Year 1 was much more enjoyable

    How is that different than always using: Fatebringer/VoC Ice Breaker/shotty Gjallarhorn/Gjallarhorn/Gjallarhorn/Gjallarhorn ?
