Incorrect assumptions... (Destiny)
There are only a handful of damage perks on any guns, like glass half full. Most perks rely on increasing range, stability or other attributes that don't directly influence TTK. In addition most PVP ignores ATK power, so higher ATK variants are not any better.
People will buy the guns for the look, or a different combination of the basic gun stats and perks. You don't have to make guns kill faster just to make them better.
New perks that open up new gameplay options will lure in people far more then faster TTKs. You don't have to get as crazy as Borderlands but I'm certain there are some options we could bring over to Destiny.
