This thread is 1 year old ;) The Hunter - weakest PVE class
3 golden gun shots to take down a a single captain as a Gunslinger! Blade dancing mobs you could easily take down with a primary!
What place is there for a Hunter in PVE? In what situation would it not be preferable not to take a Titan or Warlock? The Golden Gun barely out damages my Hawk Moon. The Hunter needs some serious PVE love!

Hey don't whine. You know why we have the worst PvE abilities? Because we're the best players. That's why. We don't need that fancy shit, just a gun and our mits.

Gunslingers - Utilitarian Perks and Abilities. --Golden Gun good for taking out lighter targets or weakening stronger ones. +Can be Upgraded for Crowd Control (Combustion and Keyhole) +Can be Modified with a Single Target Nuke (Celestial Nighthawk) Bladedancer - Stealth and Maneuverability Perks with strong burst damage. Oh, and Blink. --Arc Blade good for taking out large groups, not advised against hard targets. +Duration can be extended with perks and exotics. Nightstalker - Arguably the best PvE class with strong PvP support capability. --Super can bring down large groups of enemies fast as well as weaken more difficult targets significantly. +Can be upgraded to take even large groups out or take out those smaller groups faster. As it stands, Nighstalker is prolly the best PvE class next to the Defender. Gunslinger is good for both, but not as good as Nightstalker or Defender, but better than Bladedancer which is just comically bad in PvE. Do not play Bladedancer in PvE. Don't do it. Its a PvP class.

Shadow Shot.

Bladedancer's invisibility is one of the best PvE abilities. The fact that you can take out a Captain with 3 Golden Gun Rounds isn't bad either considering Fist of Havoc won't kill one.

The only reason why I chose the hunter is because they look the most badass!!!!

In the raid hunters are great medics as they can go invisible and good for boss fights. When a sunsinger warlock activates his super the hunter can repeatedly use his golden gun dealing massive damage and generating orbs to super charge the warlock again. I won't run the raid without at least 1 hunter and 2 sunsingers as they can clutch it when they're the last man standing.

3 RepliesThe whole pros/cons argument pales as soon as you look at the cloaks. All the others have cloak envy, end of. ;) Blimey a lot of people get very angry very quickly about stuff on here don't they.

1 ReplyI love how this is all purely based on supers. In Destiny, you're super won't be there all the time, and you won't be using it all the time. Outside of the abilities, every class has access to three weapons, and that's what stops everyone from being completely different. My super may not be the best, but what if I'm killing more enemies and finishing more objectives than you. Does that make me bad at PVE just because I'm a hunter. At the end of the day, your character is only as good as you are at the game. I've heard stories of raid teams consisting of four hunters or more going into the raid and beating it flawlessly. If you have a team of warlocks who are horrible at the game, then you can't just expect them to dominate the raid based on their class. TL;DR: Skill>Class

I wouldnt play any other class. A Hunter fits my play style perfectly.

2 RepliesI actually like the gunslinger in PvE. But they should allow the golden gun crits for headshots. In PvP a hit from it is a one shot kill anyways so that wouldn't hurt them either. Otherwise he has his uses in my opinion. Clearing up groups of lesser enemies with gg set to overpenetrate and make targets explode is pretty effective. He is just weak when it comes to bosses. But this would be improved by allowing the golden gun to crit. The bladedancer on the other hand is meant to be a PvP spec anyway in my opinion as he is not usable a lot in PvE.

4 Replies10000000% agree the only useful thing is the invisibility in a raid or strike to revive people but then your super is 100% wasted as you ain't going to run in and try knifing a boss are you ?
-
3 RepliesTitan class cant do much with his super either. He also doesnt do alot of damage and easily gets wrecked. Im not saying youre wrong but I am saying you should think about how the class compares to the others
-
If a hunter is using the gunslinger class in Vog then it is helpful because it is a one hit kill on the oracles
-
Faster reload speed, increased weapon stability, and they tend to have more intellect. More golden gun kills generates tons of orbs. Gunslinger is really strong!!!
-
17 RepliesMain is hunter, and it's the only class which you can extend your super for over 2 to 5 minutes. By using the blade dancer equip with third eye mask and abilities that Regen or lower knife ability. Need wave ability "psion ground wave" I myself have tested this and does work Works amazing when the area breaks out in a war, stand in front of cave spawn, throw multiple waves or slice and dice on the inside. Have spawned max orbs past 20. Where orbs no longer spawn when hitting enemies.

Hunter is OK as it is I find I can kill and be killed as or by a hunter

1 ReplyEdited by kohkisg: 11/2/2014 6:44:23 PMAs long as playing solo, it depends on the player. But in cooperative, Hunter is often neglected in PvE because of this issue. Getting the game harder, this UX is critically harassing. I've been playing as Hunter since I started. After she reached light 23, I thought I tried Vanguard Tiger. But... At every time the strike starts, the other two bodies(most often Titan or Warlock) find me Hunter, and soon depart from game leaving me...Soooo funny and of course disgusting. I don't usually play PvP. Then now I feel like giving up Hunter before getting to raid.

My main character is a Hunter because I prefer the look and the class armour is by far the best. The band for the Warlock is pointless and hardly visible (but I do like the badass exotic chainmail chest piece.) Golden gun is terrible compared to the other special moves. It's the only special where you have to actually aim rather than just dominate a group of enemies. But the sticky grenade has gotten me out of a lot of tricky situations, as has the throwing knife. The grenade on the blade dancer class is AWFUL. I haven't killed one person with it in PvP. It really needs to be improved compared to the Warlock grenades which always kill me in one.

8 RepliesMy god have any if u played hunter or know how to I hat gunslinger but blade dancer is awesome. Can easily solo most thing in usability gets you outta a few problems. Raid blade dancer easily takes out miniatures or preatorians even on hard. Not saying wouldn't say no to a small buff some where tho but it is no way underpowered.

1 Replynot that true.... for the 3 golden shots i'm agree for the first use, then you can boost the shots number with your exotic.. for blade dancing, you can regain your life OR extend the duration with your ablities, making you either instopable with full life each kill or more "competitive" with the duration (but you have to be smart in case of a deadly trap). During PVE, the laser grenade can easy warm you of an enemie, killing it too if you use it correctly (but can kill you too if you don't take care lol) and also, you can extend the duration before explosion with your exotic as well. Hunters arent the "DPS" class, they are the "trap" class that prevent the enemies to kill you from behind. Also golden shot that explode enemies can do major damage to enemies around if you use it on big waves. But i can be agree if you tell me that each classes can't really do what they are created for because of lack of skills
