    Forsaken era of D2 pvp was honestly the most fun I had ever had. The only thing I would've mentioned within that section is how prominent Dust Rock Blues was. I mean seriously every 6v6 and 3v3 mode I went into, someone was using Dust Rock and either Lunas or NF.

    Vanilla D2 Meta was good when MIDA wasn't around. Quite enjoyed the longer, skill based gunfights than the ones of Shotgun Sliding, Stompee SMG/Shotgun, Juggernaut Skullfort, Contraverse Nova, and Aim Assist Galore Snipers. They should've stayed in Heavy Slot for PvP only, was much more fun that way when you didn't get one shot spawn killed or curbstomped for not playing broken. I know this is a lonely hill, one I'll be on for eternity

    The best metas were those of medium range weapons with precision weapons on the side (i.e. handcannon/sniper, auto/precision frame shotty). Long-range metas encourage sitting in the back of the map and makes the pvp arena less fun to play. I love it when pulses and scouts get buffs that make them viable options, but not the dominant force.

    I’ve been playing Destiny PvP since the beta and the debut of the Prismatic Hunter was easily the most toxic META in franchise history, til this day it’s still corny but not as bad as when it first came out.

    • @valediction9174
      @valediction9174 День тому +2

      How is it corny though? Every class has their own advantages
      Hunters are supposed to be the "movement" class when shoulder bash and icarus dash has you into lanes that hunters can't get to at the same pace
      Not to forget about things like bubble meta, well of radiance, and on hunter the new arc super etc
      I'm sure why hunters are being blown out of proportion when all classes are guilty of being "unbalanced"

    • @LeJunny
      @LeJunny День тому +2

      @@valediction9174 I would’ve agreed with you before Subclass 3.0, Hunters were sitting ducks compared to the other classes but Prismatic Hunter did way too much other classes couldn’t really compete with, ofc they finally nerfed Strand clone, Smokes and Solar nades but back then it was overwhelming ability spam and required zero gun skill.

    I think the most fun meta for me was back in season 11 with bastion summoner on a titan with anteus. It was hilarious to mow down supers with anteus deflect plus the bastion. But recently the peacekeeper sniper wasnt bad bc it did take skill. it was night and day difference between a good smg sniper and not.

    Tbh even with the way forsaken was, it was by far the best meta. Don't get me wrong the weapons and armor and abilities were completely overtuned and ridiculous, but in a good way. Like Luna's howl and not forgotten were busted, but they weren't instant win buttons. They required precision in order to get the benefits and I wish that they had done something similar with all the other pinacle weapons. Maybe with revoker (also you forgot about revoker meta AND wish ender meta) on a headshot kill you got a bullet back or something like that. I just wish they balanced it slightly better back then and maybe we would still be in a meta like that now. Also the game was just more consistent back then. The net code now is so bad that I have a better chance with worse ping than with good Internet.

    I think hunters (no shade at you patty) but a lot of hunters are complaining about the electro slide on prismatic warlock and that "its too overpowered" when it whiffs and geat you killed 6/10 times. And it diesnt even one shot unless ur surrounded with synthoceps and it can STILL whiff. Its genuinely not overpowered. And hunters conplain about it when they had the shatterdive meta for over a year that could kill any super in the game 💀

    Nah, it's all just one long "worst" era, bad PVP game constantly hampering the PVE design. Just go play COD for PVP it's pretty decent this year.
