    Crying nerf already...Big Alejandro.

    The big Alejandro, is fine. It's a exotic weapon, that should be powerful, just because it now might replace the M4 & lvoa-c its OP? And it's base is higher than the mg5???? Well yeah it's going to be it's an EXOTIC. Lmgs need some damn love now guys it's been like 374837 years. Everyone always wants to nerf lmgs but leaves Assult rifles alone, leave the lmg alone.

    It's a clear outlier.

    If Exotics are meant to be powerful, lets buff the Rhino and Damascus to the point where they are outDPSing m4s as well, right?





    Exotics having a free pass at being OP is a cop out...

    If that's the case - how come the Liberator is trash? I mean let's be real - who actually pulls out a handgun to get headshot kills for that gun? It's not realistic. This isn't Destiny, Battlefield, or COD... You can't kill enemies with a pistol in 1-2 shots. Even reds take 3+ to kill.

    If exotics actually were good - there would be guns used beyond the bullfrog and HIstorian.

    So no, a nerf is warranted unless a buff as a whole is coming to LMGs that put that gun in the place. Honestly ARs all need a buff, so do SMGs (not huge - but non MP5/MP7 variants all could use some love). Snipers could use some love in HS DMG department for bolt actions specifically the Hunting M44. The hunting M44 should have at least 250%-300% HS damage and the scale should slide so faster shooting ones have lower HS damage while the single shot ones with low mag cap have significantly higher if not double.

    It certainly isn't, at least Destiny has the ability to make Exotics unique/usable and on a playing field that they get used all the time in peoples loadouts for everything from patrols to strikes to the Raid and across to P v P in the crucible.

    The Exotics in this game are a joke and hardly worth touching bar the odd one or two because the moment one gets good people cry foul and OP.

    they shouldn't get a free pass but they also shouldn't be marginally better than their HE counterparts. If a person can't be excited about getting it and doesn't have a reason to chase it then you've just created wasted coding and a wasted premise. Should they be unbeatable, NO... Should they be more powerful, YES.

    As of now the only time anyone is in cover is against NPCs for the most part. Making an LMG that forces players into cover is a good thing. My change to the weapon would be that players (players only) that take cover from the weapon no longer take extra damage. Heck even reduce the damage from the weapon against players in cover for all I care but if they want to run out in the open while being sprayed with bullets they absolutely 100% should get melted by the gun.

    I think another thing is while exotics should be a little more powerfull what the people really want is lmg's as whole buffed in some way not just an exotic which has very little chance of dropping for everyone if that makes sense .

    I agree with all this. Every word.

    Big Al is a runaway winner. Way too powerful.
