Is the current meta finally balanced?

Hey guys, I've seen a lot of people complaining that the meta is broken and that Last Word is way too OP. I think that year 1 was way more broken with Thorn, Hawkmoon and Last Word at the time. I thought I'd share my opinion on this topic with you ;) What do you guys think? Balanced or not?

  • As your camping and talking about how you can play with all the OP weapons. Try using something other than Mida, Last Word, Any Pulse Rifle, or Doctrine. You will not get a kill. Between the horrible hit detection, everyone using the Y2 Thorn (Mida Tools), and the skill based matchmaking, it's almost impossible to play casually in the casual part of Destiny (aka regular crucible) They need to increase the accuracy of hand cannons while keeping last word where it is but increasing recoil for Last Word. They need to increase base damage but lower precision scaler for all auto rifles. Autos also need a base Range and Stability buff. Scout Rifles are fine. High RoF pulse rifles need a Stability decrease. Low RoF pulse rifles need a slight damage reduction. Mida Multi Tool either needs to have less mobility while ADS or needs to have more flinch when hit. Fusion Rifles need a stability and accuracy buff. Shots are constantly not going where you are aiming and none of the Fusion Rifles have a recoil pattern that is useable. Snipers need to have all mobility/handling changes that shotguns have received. This includes increased time to ADS, less movement speed, delay to ADS after sprinting, slower reload for High Impact snipers. These are just weapon changes. Other changes consist of Lightning Grenades and Firebolt nades needing something changed. Or Arcbolts being fixed so that the damage doesn't fluctuate between 20-80. How can you say this "Meta" is balanced? It is so far from. The weapons were so much more balanced in Y1 than now (disregarding thorn, last word, and Hawkmoon). Autos could actually compete with other weapons, Hand cannons actually registered damage, Pulse Rifles weren't dominating everything, Scout Rifles were useable and competitive, Fusion rifles actually hit people without delay. How can you actually say that Crucible is anywhere near ballenced?
