How Hunters are amazing in VoG
Makes me sick to see people kicking hunters out of VoG groups because they are "useless". I am going to prove them wrong. Here is how they are amazing in VoG
1. Destroying oracles fast: Got three oracles you need to destroy in less then 5 seconds or else your team die? Not a problem for a gunslinger. They can one shot those oracles
2. Great relic holders: Hunters are best fitted for the relic. They are very fast and quick. The whole team spread out and you need to cleanse them? Not a problem for the Hunter. They are also really good for in the teleporter for Atheon.
3. Clearing out enemies: Got a bunch of supplicants swarming your team on atheon? Get gunslinger and Time Vengeances and you can take out all those supplicants out. Need to help out clear enemies with the shield guy in the teleporter? Not a problem.
Now you know how they are amazing in VoG. What are they are not good out?
1. Cheesing
I laugh at the people who say hunters are useless in VoG. They are the people who want to do it the easy way by cheesing the bosses. I just want to say you guys that think so are pathetic and just so sad.
Well that is it. What you guys think? For those Hunters that do VoG, you guys are the real MVP.
Edit: Thanks for all of the responses and glad to see that many people feel the same way. It is not the class that makes the group succeed, it is the person that is holding the controller. This whole Hunter Discrimination needs to stop.
Edit: I am not a Hunter, yet

Although they are not useless they just have to be used right u need them on blade dancer to take out adds and on revive duty because they can go invisible

1 ReplyNot gonna lie. I cheese Templar with my Warlock. However, my team never kicks Hunters because we do see their value in VoG. Additionally, we don't cheese Atheon. Only Templar.

Thanks for posting this. I hope it opens people's eyes to hunters usefulness.

False hunter suck in vog

9 RepliesI've never been kicked for playing as a Hunter is VoG nor have I kicked any for that reason. They may are very good for being supportive for taking out Oracles and Supplicants very fast. I also love the stereotype that Hunters struggle with the disappearing platform part even though I've been the first one to those giant doors as my Hunters a few times. Also, Hunters get really cool looking raid armor in my opinion.

Ive never been kicked especially for being a hunter lol but idk I see posts with people being so negative lol the fact is we dont have shields or any self rez or any fall back just pure skill to survive lol
-
I love my hunter but for relics titan> hunter
-
This is true. Nothing is useless, but the user can be.

6 RepliesPeople talk crap like that so that they have something to bit*h about, the truth is if you looked at the roles that each class has, a fire team should have one of each, 1 Titan- Meatshield/tank/ haold aggro. 2 Warlock - Short range dps/crowd control / (sunsinger) quasi healer in the sense of self revive and the hopefully get the rest of the team up if needed. 3 Hunter - Long range DPS/ useful for taking out incoming adds and boss spawn from a distance. It's a well thought out mechanic for the game, biggest issue is that most of the people playing are FPS gamers and want to be the hero and get everything done quickly. I personally believe that they should code Atheon so that if he dies cause he was cheesed then he drops nothing or respawns at full health, lol.

With my hunter on the atheon fight because I am level 30 and have that amazing hunter jump, I make all the suplicants sucide. I'll just shoot one and let the other two rush up the stairs. When they go into explode mode. I hit the Kobe fade away. Its easy with a little practice. You can really get rid of supplicants fast shooting and doing this. But practice.

You don't even have a Hunter why do you care
-
I don't get why anyone needs to justify playing a hunter. I've seen every class suck. It comes down to the skill of the person playing them not the class itself.

4 RepliesSo I don't know who you guys play with but personally out of all the raids I've done I've never once seen a hunter kicked he'll I carried a lvl 25 hunter through it the other day I really don't see the problem its just people you meet are elitist assholes also you forgot to mention you can go invis when marked and your screen won't be black and to the people saying locks with self revs are bad/stupid its not the class its the player I personally as a lock rarely die in the vault but when I do its not cause I think im invincible its cause I get overly confident or in last nights case the people I ran it with had no idea how to kill atheon I myself have been kicked though as a level 30 lock from raids for not wanting to cheese the templar the problem is over 75 percent of the people in the raid don't know how to do it legit

Ivisible perk is perfect for left Portal of the gatekeeper. I can just wait for M Team to re open the Portal or till the guy in the right Portal is ready to go
-
And this, good sir, is why my primary character is a hunter.
-
2 RepliesGoing invisible for the labyrinth is also a bonus.
-
No. The only thing a hunter is useful for is putting one on the left conflux with blade dancer thats it.
-
6 RepliesGold Gun doesn't one shot oracles on hard
-
2 Replieslol i'm a lvl 26 hunter and my teamates are always telling the others to let me pick up the relic.
-
2 RepliesI'd prefer more of a tank than a person that can run fast with the relic, but that's just my opinion.
-
Sir you a positive person thinker.
-
I love you
-
3 RepliesEveryone with a brain knows this. Sadly, most of the people here on the forum doesnt have one.

#2. No, hunters are not best for the relic. Sunbros are since if they die they can self-resurrect. You only get about 4 seconds for someone to pick it up if you die, or the whole team loses.
-
You da real MVP for this post! Hunter class requires much more skill...at least gunslinger does. Actually have to aim with our super(gunslinger) than slamming a ground or throwing a huge bomb at the floor Use and time jumping right(not just float) Survival and precision is key(no self res or bubble shield and throwing knife is much more difficult melee than a magic push and shoulder charge) Hunters ftw!

Won't do VOG without atleast 2 hunters :) they drop orbs quicker than anything and it helps out insane amounts.
