@eko9980 @LukeCB14 Nobody stopped using John Chunk, every lfg raid had like 3 people trying to do it

If you want the game to be easy, play on the lowest difficulty.

@MacticsG1 I’ll never support calling for and actually implementing nerfs. Buff other stuff. I feel Bungie has conditioned many players to accept nerfs as balancing but that ideological framework needs to be “sunset” if not “vaulted” altogether. Surely Bungie fans understand that!

@Dig_Balls @LukeCB14 I just used those hyperbolic examples as anecdotal evidence to support that even at its most broken, people had fun, and when they didn’t, they stopped using it. I’m not advocating buffing everything to that level, but I wouldn’t be opposed to it either 😈

@eko9980 @LukeCB14 If you buff everything to John chunk levels the game just falls over, you need to retain a level of balance

@Dig_Balls @LukeCB14 “Balancing” means players literally just stay the same. One could argue that’s drastic in and of itself too. Clearly from the Scatter Shot Arms Week Bow mod exploit, the Sword chunk exploit before that, the “John Chunk” Warlock, etc. these are not unpopular power fantasies.

@eko9980 @LukeCB14 "Only buffs" means players literally just nonstop get stronger, that's very drastic.

@Dig_Balls @LukeCB14 I'm not talking drastic, game-breaking buffs here, just some love. But I'm damn sure not going to ignore the fact that when Bungie left “John Chunk” Warlock in for so long, many of the players advocating for nerfs in the name of “balance” exploited that… that’d be some Bird Box

@eko9980 @LukeCB14 If you don't Thanos it and have only buffs the game becomes absurdly easy which becomes boring quickly.

@Dig_Balls @LukeCB14 It depends on the buffs of both things... really anything for that matter. Not trying to Thanos the sandbox here…

@eko9980 @LukeCB14 So if the player only receives buffs it would be alright to buff enemies to keep the difficulty the same?

@LukeCB14 Perhaps I may have been a bit brash in the beginning there. 🤔 Either way, I guess ridiculousness is subjective because I feel the same way about your argument. 🤷🏼‍♂️

@Dig_Balls @LukeCB14 What? lol I can only handle the game being piss easy because I don’t want nerfs? lmfao. What a guy! No one’s making anyone do anything bud. If ya’ll think something’s too good then don’t use it if you don’t want to. Flex your stuff with your pixels all you want man. 😁

@eko9980 @LukeCB14 Very silly to make players self regulate the sandbox to have a balanced experience because you can only handle the game being piss easy while refusing to play at an easier difficulty

@ExoSmack I couldn’t get into that gooner game myself sadly. From the sounds of it though, you’re the second “goonmaxxer” to reference that game, I might have to dabble to see what all the fuss is about…for science and stuff. EVERYTHING’s buffed? What a time to be alive!

The First Descendants tried the "buff everything" method and you should see how that work out for them

@iamrowynar @MacticsG1 Dang bro—in this economy? Ah, you’re a Section 8 member. Hang in there bud; it gets better! With a little hard work and a few more Nickels from flops of “buff everything else and [it] not work[ing]” you’ll get to be where you want to be. Unfortunately for you tho it works.

@eko9980 @MacticsG1 It is, but they also spent over a year trying to buff everything rather than nerf 2 outliers with zero success which is why I brought it up. When something is as strong as rocket pulses, nerfing them is a buff to literally everything else

@OfflineBTW @MacticsG1 Hey, you suggested one shotting everything not me. If you want it so everything’s like a Celestial Nighthawk to the dome then I won’t hate on ya tho. I’ll never advocate for implementing nerfs. I’ll be right there Golden Gunning with you.
