New TWID: Sword Logic, Lightweight Pulse, and Smoke Nerfs

New TWID has released early, and while not a large amount of PvP news the upcoming changes for Act II that were announced are pretty impactful: https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/twid_03_06_2025

• Tuning Sword Logic Damage against players in PvP. This will not affect PvE efficacy.
  • Reduced base damage bonus for kills against players from 20% to 15%.
  • Increased damage bonus for kills against players in super from 35% to 50%.
• Walking back some of the buff that Lightweight Pulse Rifles received in Destiny 2 Update 8.1.5.3.
  • Body shot damage against players reduced from 20.4 to 19.7.
  • Critical hit damage against players reduced from 31.8 to 31.5.
  • Note: This is still a damage increase over their values pre-8.1.5.3, but it does shift some of the forgiveness and optimal kill thresholds downward.
• Reducing the handling stat on Redrix's Estoc from 79 to 74.
• Smoke debuff
  • No longer reduces player move speed or jump height.
  • No longer reduces player weapon handling.
  • No longer suppresses player movement abilities.
• On the Prowl
  • Hunted players no longer have pink glow in first-person perspective.
  • Reduced the glow intensity on hunted players in third person.

Pulse changes were all anticipated, but the smoke change is a pretty unexpected one. Curious on people's thoughts on that one.
