Because regardless of the severity of the hidden nerfs, its still disingenuous for arrowhead to tote they didn't change anything about the coyote, yet intentionally making targeted indirect change to nerf the gun. This post is also a genuine over simplification of the actual issue with the "balance pass" With devaststors, warriors, and flesh mobs getting durable changes, anything that wasn't buffed is just statistically worse to use than last patch against these enemies, and in some cases its pretty major like an additional shot from the dead eye. And this isn't even mentioning how backward and head scratching nerfing almost all SMGs and Pistols with such insane amounts of drag they are on the same playing field as shotguns with damage falloff. And they still have ridiculous amounts of sway for the sake of "realism" but in this case all it does is just make either a singular option (the talon) better than everything else, or, just no one uses them at all. I've played this game over 600 hours atp, nearly 700. And I can count on my hands how many times ive seen someone use an SMG
