Is that better or worse than never using secondaries? (Destiny)

Seriously, before TTK using secondaries was a 1 in every 100 encounters proposition, and then it was only if you were using a Shotgun. There was never any reason to use a Sniper Rifle if you had Thorn or even TLW. As long as you rolled Hand Cannon and Shotgun you were basically always covered.

I've only played Crucible a handful of times since TTK dropped (and haven't touched it at all since the latest weapon balance), but it seems like they may have swung too far in the opposite direction.
