#destinytruthcast Episode 38: PvP Killed the PvE Star

With another tuning patch about to be announced, it will be interesting to see once more the effects of the PvP balancing on PvE play. Should the modes be separated or should Bungie continue to cling to the notion of wanting our weapons to perform the same in both modes?

The podcast was started to give everyday guardians a chance to do something they would probably never experience by being on a podcast and to give them the opportunity to have not just their thoughts, but their voices heard by Bungie as they discuss the game. Beyond that, it's allowed us to get to know the voices and personalities behind the gamertags we see on the forums and get to know each other in a way not possible in anonymous words on a page. We aren't here to endorse or tear down Bungie or Destiny, but to give honest, balanced talk on this game. Thank-you and maybe we'll see you on an episode.

    Was there ever any change to Bungies general statements they "can't separate PVP and PVE weapon changes from eachother in game"? Cause they do it every time they implement any "damage modifier codes for nightfalls"... They just title them elemental burns. **shrug Edit: Example: An elemental burn is an increase in damage on a weapon that has an element we all know this. If a weapon is running arc burn, the code increases the damage on that weapon and players are informed via the titles and info panels. **they demonstrated this even in nightfalls by lessening player elemental burns down to 200% while enemy elemental burns were left at 300%, if long term players remember that (Newer players may be unfamiliar with this change that occurred). Weapons that don't have correct element burns on other elemental enemy shields do LESS damage than it's similar type. Point: Only reason we are aware of these is because of the titles and visual effects. Both code. If Bungie wanted a shotgun in PVE to do more than in PVP to other players, they could apply the burn code (change the damage modifier) to one and not the other in the game types minus the titles/info panels... Hence.... They could have been separating PVP and PVE damages all along. Like they had been in nightfalls. Laters.✌🏻;️ Edit for TLDR: Game mode: nightfall Code applied:arc burn 200% (example) Effect: does more damage Game mode: PVE Code applied: no elemental burn Effect: none Result: if Bungie can modify damage for nightfall game mode outside of standard PVE/PVP they can modify it for both without the info panels they've been doing it since launch.
