[Cagkan]

Does anyone know what are the best guns to use right now for pvp ?

Pulses for spam (No time to explain, the messenger, piece of mind, BxR battler), hand cannons for general use (Fatebringer, austringer, rose, palindrome), SMGs for aggressive play (Ikelos SMG v3, submission, calus mini tool). Sidearms are growing more powerful and are very oppressive (drang, forgiveness, trespasser). For specials, fusions are stupidly OP and great for getting early picks, shotguns are good for general use and self defence, snipers are extremely oppressive if you can hit anything. Pretty much the entire meta summed up right now

Nerfed but still better. Just like SMGs somehow beat ARs.

they've been repeatedly nerfed for months but have been meta literally all year. They never stopped being meta, apart from a few brief moments of brokenness from other weapons (DMT, Forerunner, telesto, etc), but were still always second best behind flavour of the week

The Lodbrok-C with target lock can 5-head-shot kill giving it one of the fastest TTK's in the game right now.

Everyone is sleeping on it because it is not "meta"

That's because target lock resets if even one shot misses, making it nonviable at close range, while pulses are still the superior option at mid to long range. That fast ttk is nice on paper, but not very realistic in most PvP situations. It's pretty good in PvE though.

I think it's more of people not having it rather than sleeping on it, I've only gotten 2 and neither were rolls I bothered to keep.

pvp meta is the usual weapons combined with passive ability's that grand special or heavy ammo at re spawn

You know everyone spawns in with special ammo and drops it on death right? Heavy ammo only spawns from a timed spot in a map.

Meta is pretty ass. Shoot first or disengage. I've been using SMGs, mainly manticore. Not for the grav ♥♥♥♥. But for the how the gun feels. Def not meta though. Bungie should play test or give players a vote before introducing game modes like this. Just not fun.
