The Last Word is probably one of the most popular weapons to use in Destiny Y01. After Patch 2.0, The popularity has somewhat decreased. The weapon is stll pretty good, but just with a change of lower range and more recoil. This gun was the co-king of the meta in the crucible, now it sits behind the newer weapons, but some may say it's still the co-king (along with the Hawkmoon and good Pulse Rifles). Here is my opinion, if this weapon is still good or not:

PvP POV:

This is still probably one of the most useful guns in the crucible. Not only is it great in short range, it's just par with medium range. I was able to use the Y01 version of this weapon into Y02. 2nd game into it, I was able to get The Mark of the Unbroken (Or I was probably playing with n00bs back then) with this weapon (and 1000-Yard Stare). Since the major nerf in this weapon, It has balanced the crucible quite a bit. I still see Guardians still using TLW in the crucible because it's still good. The gun itself is not going to win you games, you'll have to rely on different methods of killing opponents, such as your special/heavy weapons, melee, and your grenade(s). Overall, I like the nerf on this weapon, it makes it where you need to have a skilled Guardian to master this weapon. The weapon makes it where you actually need an aggressive player (unless you've used this weapon (and mastered it) in Y01).

If you Guardians have any comments or any questions about this gun or anything, feel free to put it down below at the comments section or at my message wall.
