I'd go further and target certain weapons that had their exotic/legendary perks changed. I disagree on your change to the archetypes (specifically the Hawksaw one as I see no game breaking quality) but bringing but the arch types like HSP/Messenger and not reducing damage across the board to compensate would be better. Personally, I don't see why Bungie remove the increased damage from the hip on TLW. What made it broken was the glitch of ADS, and that is gone. Bring back the damage on the exotic perk and keep the weapon the same. 2 tapping in CQC takes good hip fire aim and isn't game breaking. Consistency for the weapon types needs to be well... consistent? It's weird how only certain archetype of guns (looking at Hawksaw types) can thrive in one meta, but be destroyed the next because another archetype in the same gun type is better at the time.
