The Nerf that Wasn't (Destiny)

by someotherguy, Hertfordshire, England, Friday, October 17, 2014, 07:17 (3935 days ago) @ Riceamike

The AR nerf easn't really a nerf so much as a playstyle adjustment. They still have the highest DpS (even with the reduction in Crit damage) and they still dominate at close range. They're close range weapons, so they're great for close range.The only real change is that they're not also the best long range weapon.

In fact, some ARs have come out with HIGHER Impact and Damage, as well as increased Reload Speed.

As for Shotguns, their range hasnt been decreased at all, you'll jusr do less damage than before if youre outside of that optimal Range.
