Ok first Mida was my first exotic way back in Y1 so for me to be using it isn't because its popular it is because I know it and how it can effect PvE foes. The HCR Stagger combined with its high clip capacity(21 rounds) makes it a very good chose for a Solo PvE player to use and survive missions and Strikes. Plus in PvP the Stagger was negligible unless your hard scoping sniper lanes. Then that is your fault for not paying attention to your surroundings. Just because a weapon or piece of gear is over use does not mean it is OP just that it is effective.

Well said. Can't agree with this enough.

Im confused. Your first comment seems to suggest your pissed MIDA got a nerf, but you then point out it hasnt had a nerf? No year one or year two players can tell me they cant raid or do strikes with a MIDA now as it doesnt have stagger rounds...come on man. There are so many weapons. Ive never used MIDA in a raid, any raid, and never had any problems. Yes you like it, I used Universal remote for VOG, most of Crota and POE and it was a beast. I loved it so much. Now i cant use it in Kingsfall. No shits were given by anyone but me. Its not whether MIDA is OP or not, its the fact people feel like they have to use it and there isnt a choice. This should correct it somewhat. Thats why Bungie hardly changed MIDA.

OK what this is coming down to is this. The only reason they took out the HCR was to " make it less painful to get hit by a Mida" that is just wrong. I have known that the Mida HCR Stagger was negligible in PvP for a long time but in PvE it is useful to Stagger enemies (or if your really looking for a Solo challenge Stagger Kill Ultra's with your Mida) Most of the complant about the Mida are coming from hard scoping snipers that don't thin they should have to re-aim after getting hit by a round or two from a Mida or even worst for them they die from four rounds from a Mida in the hands of an average PvP player (me) that they never see coming. I agree with a lot of what your saying and in fact we should wait till a week or so after the update to complain about any changes. But like I have stated before the Mida was the first ever Exotic Weapon I got. and in Y1 it was what I got the most kills with. So to me the Mida has the same significance as Thorn or Hawkmoon does to their users.

I accept that, i said the same when they killed my universal remote. But i will bet my last strange coin and rotten candy that come day one of the update, in PVP at least, if you see dreggs promise melt heads you will drop your MIDA straight away... games go in cycles, i love fusions and they got nerfed, now they are secretly godly (if you get a good roll) and they are now getting a buff!?!? (god i smiled) MIDA is your swiss army knife...other weapons do almost everything it does better in one cat, but its good at everything and versatile. Its hardly changed and within no time at all there will be a new MIDA people will go mad about. We both know this.
