Why hasn't Golden Gun been buffed yet?
I'm not talking about extra PVP health (although it would be nice), I'm talking about the base damage of the 3 measly shots you get in PVE.
Datto had a good argument in his balancing video about how it would be overpowered to simply one shot yellow enemies, but at the same time it shouldn't take all 3 to get them to half health. I'm surprised it's taken Bungie this long to not realize how awful it is.
Normal heavy weapons shouldn't easily do more than a direct super to the head. That's pretty unfair.
A buff like this wouldn't really affect PVP, so there isn't really a reason to not go through with this.
Edit: Dear god people, read the post.

It would not allow max armor classes to tank shots anymore. Some people spec for this specifically, so yes -- it would have an effect on pvp. I don't disagree with you, but try using golden gun to finish off majors. You must be new, because if you weren't you'd remember the knights at the beginning of the crota fight.
