Problem 3: Ubiquitousness of Mida Multi-Tool in PvP
We’ve spoken about this at length before and if you want the full scoop, give this article on the subject a read. So let’s fast forward and get to the point. Midas are everywhere in PvP. It’s not a broken weapon but because it’s good, easy to use, and easy to get, the Crucible, and especially the competitive and Trials of the Nine playlists, are rampant with them to the point of being obnoxious.
Based on prior history, we know that Bungie doesn’t enjoy seeing a few (in this case one) weapon dominating usage. So we fully expect this to be addressed at some point. If you’re asking us how to fix the problem, the answer would be to simply remove the weapon.
This method may seem harsh and dramatic but it would instantly make the Crucible way more diverse in terms of weapons usage, and you could soften the blow by allowing owners to exchange the Mida Multi-Tool for something like three “powerful “(based on current power level) exotics of the owner’s choice. If that’s not possible, sadly there needs to some kind of adjustment to weapon balance or the exotic itself that is significant enough to shift the meta away from one weapon.
