Well you're talking out of your ass as much as I am. You can say you tested weapons but it doesn't mean you actually did. For all intent and purposes, I believe you. No, I have no actual proof. Only as much as you. I used the first green pulse rifle I could find from the weapons dealer. It did about the same as it would in crucible. 3-4 full bursts on the body to kill an enemy. I switched to the Stranger's Rifle, fully upgraded. 2-3 full bursts or so for a kill. My Red Death, which had no upgrades on it at all when i played my first IB match, took shields down in one burst. The second killed. No other pulse rifle I've used has the power to do that in Crucible. Once I got it to the middle of the upgrade chain, it was bringing people down below their shield and chipping away at their health in one burst. This didn't work on people around my level, only about 15 and under from what I could tell.
