PSA: Stop using Zhalo for Arc burn activities!
Just a reminder asking people to please stop overusing Zhalo. In the last month of heroic strikes and nightfalls there's been Arc burn on five times. (3 heroic, 2 nightfalls) No doubt Zhalo has been [u]THE[/u] go-to primary weapon for these strikes. Unfortunately we are all playing into Bungie's evil plans to nerf the Zhalo by removing the arc burn from it. How you ask? Simple. By driving up the usage via high level content with Arc burn, Bungie and the sandbox team can now put out a graph next month saying Zhalo is overused and not the diverse primary choices they intended hence it needs a nerf and the burn removed. Don't fall into their games people! They already got your legendary burn primaries and now almost a full year later they're coming for the exotic one.
I know people will think I'm insane or been hanging out with Eris too long in the tower but I'm right people. Just look at some of the changes and nerfs they've made because a certain weapon or archetype is overused in the game. Autos, Pulses and Hand Cannons have all been nerfed due to overuse at some point. Shotguns? Nerfed several times. Snipers? Major ammo nerf due to overuse. Field Scout, Final Round, Counterbalance, Hammer Forged, etc...All nerfed because those were the only perks people were looking to use. Mida? Average weapon nerfed when it suddenly soared to popularity and became heavily overused in pvp. Gjallarhorn? Nerfed because it was virtually the only heavy weapon being used and idiots demanded you had it or you were blacklisted from raids and such. The nerfhammer is coming for Zhalo and its up to us to try and stop it.
Tldr: Stop overusing Zhalo or Bungie will nerf it because that's how they roll.

1 ReplyI wonder if people actually quit playing the game entirely after reading posts like this. I'm sure some do after wanting to separate from any common interest with OP

Jesus christ tin foil hat much?

2 RepliesThis is just plain paranoid. They aren't gonna a nerf zhalo. The only time anyone ever uses it is for arc burn, so I'm sure that it isn't bothering bungie. It's not OP with the exception of one modifier being active. People, use zhalo as much as you want. This guy is insane
-
1 ReplyOut of curiosity, just how large is your tinfoil hat collection?
-
They should make all (atleast some) exotic primaries have a burn. Bad juju=void Hard light=arc Red death=solar
-
So you want people to put it in the vault instead? Hey don't use this gun or else they will nerf it and you won't want to use this gun. Huh? So don't use it now, or don't use it later? Nah, I'm going to use it but thanks anyway.
-
The heroics are more fun with year one primaries anyway. Fatebringer and fang of ir yut.
-
2 RepliesBungie knows what the gun does they created it. Just because they put the modifiers into activities doesnt mean a nerf, they are aware of whats going on. Use whatever you want
-
1 ReplyIf they do that then they are dumbasses. It will make the gun completely irrelevant, and it will completely eliminate elemental primaries.
-
They should add more elemental primaries what do they expect? Us not to use the only arc burn primary when we have an arc burn modifier?
-
2 RepliesI always get Zhalo from my exotic primary engrams... Getting tired of it...
-
Lmao. Bungie wants to need whatever works
-
2 RepliesNah or else they would have nerfed ToM cause of oryx long ago. It's pave they don't care about pve.
-
Until the Taken Centurion, Fallen Captain, ETC cry for a nerf Bungie don't care.
-
Yup ! It's the pattern that Bungie has undoubtedly shown us. They want us to play the game that WE have purchased, a certain way. And if we don't play the game how they want us to, then they punish us, regardless if it was their fault or not ( when blackspindle was first revealed ? And dropped at 310? ) By everyone using the Zhalo, they will come out with the same bullshit " this primary is overused and others are being ignored, so we removed the ability it has of having an arc burn to balance out the usage of other primaries " It's exactly what they will do, and if they do I hope we all put this game down. Because that right there is bullshit. The Zhalo is Preety much the only sliver of remembrance from the glory days of Year 1.

Community: Don't nerf Zhalo Bungie: Nerf Defenders? Buff Zhalo by removing the burn? Gotcha Fam, glad we got these community managers for something.
-
It's PvE, so Bungie don't care. If it was overused in PvP, then they would care. That, unfortunately, is the current logic.
-
2 RepliesNot gonna nerf cause the PVP community has no problem with it.
-
1 ReplyThe responses are quite ironic. They don't realize they are actually defending Luke Smith... "I'm only using Zhalo because it has Arc Burn!" "It's the only primary with a burn!" Both are reasons why I didn't use VoC in non-solar Y1 NFs. It was the only time I switched in PvE. In activities where burns mattered, they shoe-horned you into about 5 choices...
-
yeah....exactly how they nerfed the grasp of malok too right??...op stfu its the only flavored primary they wont take that away
-
2 RepliesJokes on them, I've been use Fatebringer in the Weekly Heroics this week.
-
This is retarded. They would nerf the stats if they were going to nerf anything, they wouldn't remove the element from the gun. Maybe all of this "overuse" will show them that is actually needs a buff to damage output.
-
6 RepliesRemoving the burn would literally make it useless, or at least nonsensical. The Exotic perk is based entirely on the fact that it does Arc damage, for Queen's sake!
