Golden Gun Buff?
Edit: If you comment before reading the entire OP I will kill you.
I am absolutely in love with the Hunter Class, particularly the Gunslinger. But, it seems to me that Golden Gun is drastically underpowered compared to other class' supers.
There are many instances where it takes all three bullets to kill one enemy, whereas Nova Bomb and Fist of Havoc could one shot that enemy and then some.
Seriously, a level 28 hunter should not need to waste all three bullets on one level 24 Fallen Captain.
Scoring critical hits with a sniper rifle vastly outdamages Golden Gun and is accessible to every class.
I am of the opinion that Golden Gun should one-shot all non-boss/major/ultra enemies and significantly damage enemies it does not one-shot.
If it were up to me I would bump up GGs damage around 50% and give it the ability to score precision damage.
Edit: Since people never bother checking the tags, I am requesting a buff for the purposes of PvE only. GG works perfectly fine in PvP and any buff to it would be redundant because its a one-shot-kill anyway.

+1 for PVE buff! I hardly use my GG, but I love my throwing knives and tripmine but my "non-super" weapons do way more damage with precision hits than my GG so it falls by the wayside most of the time. Useless against bosses, majors, ultras. I only use it to kill dregs and the like to give orbs to my fireteam. Solo I never use it because the switch time back to my other weapons just doesn't make it worth it in a mob fight. I'm going to throw in a disclaimer that this is just how I personally find I use my GG and I would love to use it more [i]in PVE[/i].
