This ^^^ (Destiny)

I retired my beastly roll Shadow Price and rock a Hawkmoon now, though I actually use my sniper rifle to get most of my kills. On close quarters maps that don't have sweet sniping lanes, I actually change everything and roll with a blink shotty bladedancer instead of my normal hunter.

Part of the issue for me is that gunslinger's trance has much more tangible benefits when using an autorifle than any other weapon. Once I got that first precision kill, my weapon became a complete laser. Now I only see it really helping with heavy MGs. I guess the effects are useful for all guns, but it's just not as obvious.

I'll miss the old days, but I don't mind the new. TBH the other weapons all feel like they require more skill to use than the ARs, and for that reason alone I feel like I'm better off now (I consider myself a high skill player) than I was before, as enemies have a harder time killing me.
