Fusion Rifles in the Crucible... (Destiny)

I alternate between not using fusion rifles in the Crucible because they seem to get easy cheesy kills and not using fusion rifles in the Crucible because I can't hit the broad side of a barn with them and/or never charge them up in time. As for people using them against me, I either back off or charge in with my shotgun, and the effectiveness of both varies from match to match. The Shot Package perk is a godsend-- that's the one where it actually gets more precise/accurate when you aim down the sights. It won't get you to fusion rifle ranges but it can double your effective range. I tend to just stick with that actually because it makes it not be suicidal or dumb luck to get shotgun headshots, which are great fun on humans and AI, they feel so wrong and yet so right... they're almost perversely satisfying on Fallen and even more so on Cabal.
