Imagine if after that weekend Xur sold Prometheus Lens that it disappeared from all loot pools and would never be in Xur’s inventory again. Now imagine they never nerfed it, that’s Felwinter’s Lie in a nutshell.
Any gear that outclasses everything else by such a huge margin simply proves how weak and boring a majority of the loot pool is by comparison. Name one shotgun as good as Felwinter, or one grenade launcher as good as mountaintop, or one sword as good as guillotine.

Destiny is not a competitive game. It’s a fomo collector solo FPS with pseudo rpg elements and some multi player activities, supported by a calendar of meta weapons and gear. That said, I know that I can’t blame the weapon for the kill, I can only agree that it made the kill easier. Blaming a weapon is rejecting reality. If anything stuff like knockout, oppressive darkness, solar plexus, and charge with light related mods are excessive and should be disabled in pvp. Just like heavies spawning all the time.
