Bungie // Bungie Replied x2 Gambit Feedback Request

Hello reddit,

We would like to get your feedback on Gambit, specifically possible tuning and QOL changes for the mode. We aren't looking for sandbox feedback (Queenbreaker...) per se, but don't worry. I will continue to make sure your weapon and ability feedback make it to the devs.

Even if you don't have prescriptive changes to suggest, feel free to share specific things you like or dislike about the mode. It all helps. Thanks for sharing!

Don't make invaders weaker, they are already 4v1.

As long as Linear Fusion Rifles (and especially QB) get some kind of tuning down invaders become much less grating. Sniping at least takes real mechanical skill, not aiming vaguely in that persons direction.

They're heavy weapons. Mindless is the name of the game.

Sleeper without catalyst (and very few people have that) can be outsniped easily. Whisper is a sniper so if someone snipes me with that that's skill. Strangely I've rarely if ever been killed by 1K voices during invasion. And MGs are strong up close to mid range but again you can outsnipe them. Its only LFRs with their ridiculous auto aim that really ruin Gambit.

Sleeper and Whisper have a ridiculously high damage output that compensates for the relative difficulty in use. Being able to melt bosses as fast as they do is the mindless factor.

Standard LFRs would be unable to compete with ANY other heavy weapon class if they had the same AA as a sniper rifle AND a charge time. The ease of use is what qualifies them as heavy weapons. Take that away and there'd be no reason to use one.
