I'm a titan main, and Consecration deserves to be nerfed

this may be a bit of a controversial thing to say, but I think Consecration does deserve a nerf, but Throwing hammer and shield deserve a magnetism buff. I don't typically use the "nerf" word lightly. but when prismatic consecration is doing as much damage as meta heavies.. It may have a problem and it needs to be tweaked down to be a little more like the other abilities. but I also want some under-utilized abilities to be buffed if they nerf it, though. and I think the throwing melee abilities take enough skill and practice to use to warrant a buff and make them feel more rewarding to use. Edit: I realize my error, and it would probably make more sense if hunters and warlocks got something as strong as it.

  • Noooo... Last week Bungie announced a prismatic aspect nerf because of Titan dominance in Pve and reverted it but somehow Hunters got F'd in Pve like F'd so hard like really hard, I don't think Hunters can survive another consecration nerf bro F U Ascension... we here at Bungie know you haven't worked properly all season with creating orbs and procing anything to do with the class item but here's a fat F U to all the Hunter mains because F U that's why.. Noooo.

  • For the throwing shield the magnetism is fine tbh Its hard to miss it and if you really really want to land it make it bounce on a wall or the floor next to your target.

  • I'll only accept the nerf if they un-nerf it's solar counterpart. It sucks a lot in comparison.

    As someone who loves to play consecration synthos it would definitely be good for balance if it was nerfed, it especially shines in GMs and between that and storm's keep striker there is no place for anything other than titan in GMs. The thing is I would really like if it other things on prismatic titan were brought up to make more builds viable in endgame content. Bolt charge is getting severely nerfed when flashover and defib are gone, but they could half the damage of consecration and the heal from knockout and I will still never use the shield thing, diamond lance, or drengr's leash. This was a trash selection of aspects and they need to make them a whole lot better to get me to use them even in a world where consecration is butchered. I would just start using sunbreaker over anything on prismatic "Why not forego the nerfs and just make everything as good as consecration!" this is a short sighted take from someone that has not experienced peak utilization of syntho consecration. Forget about balance and powercreep, it's so broken that I genuinely dont know how you make any other aspect in the game hold a candle. The very least they could do is maybe nerf specifically the class item version of synthoceps, that way you at least are more encouraged to use the gauntlets and thus have to be more thoughtful about your melee usage since you dont have HOIL and cant literally just use it on every group of 3 red bars. But even then, with 100 strength and some mods and fragments you still have constant uptime even without HOIL. I prefer the gauntlets these days anyway because they buff your super damage too so you basically get double limit break, and I have no problem playing around no HOIL

    • Why are destiny players so afraid of change? when your main 2 options this year have been sitting behind an arc wall or consecration (afaik as a hunter) don't you want to use something else at some point? obviously other things need to get tweaked up and we don't know the full extent of the balance changes yet but stop pretending consecration isn't an outlier even after the first nerf. "but muh power fantasy!!!11!1"

      • Bs you're a titan main, or you're a new light. Consecration already got a nerf bc of Raneiks in the VH dungeon. It's good as is.

          • Every time the word "nerf" is used, an airline forgets to put 1 barf bag for every passenger. 2025 is the year that my wallet gets the nerf hammer. Welp, there goes a barf bag. 🤭

          • i'm 100% sure they will nerf consacration again for at least 30% to counter the stat changes buffs, or nerf the spirt of synto interaction with the ignition
