Hunters' super isn't overpowered. Here's why.
As per usual, we're all seeing a lot of ranting and complaining about the Hunter and the super ability either with the Gunslinger or Bladedancer subclasses. Too many feel it is overpowered and unfair. Here is my take on why it is not.
When a Hunter does a super, he/she has to do the following:
- Enable it within the right timing to engage others. Too soon, and it wears off before you get a shot off or a melee attack in.
- Have good aim to not waste a shot if using the Gunslinger subclass.
- Survive attack shots and melee hits while doing the above.
- If killed while super is enabled, it is gone on re-spawn.
When a Titan or Warlock does a super, he/she does the following:
- Press two buttons when close to one or more enemies
- If hit successful, walk/run away and continue on. If missed, fight or die.
- If killed while the Titan or Warlock is about to land a super, the super is considered inactive, and is there on re-spawn.
Another way to look at the situation: When a Titan/Warlock does a super, you're probably dead. If a Hunter enables the super, you at least have a change of fight or flight.
Now please, discontinue the posts about Hunters being overpowered. Just learn how to handle the situation, or, let it happen and continue on.
Cheers.

1 ReplyBD is the only super that rewards smart playing. Out of all the supers it needs the most forethought and area awareness of all the supers. A titan can run into a room and with the unstoppable ability (w/e gives increased damage reduction) and kill everyone in there while being shot by everyone then leave with over half hp. Locks take a bit more skill because its targeted and u can damage urself (which is dumb) and can usually b killed if the person is fast enough trading 1 for 1. To all those saying BD is invincible, u need to shoot at them before they are 2 feet in front of you. I've killed countless BD with an ar or shotgun + melee u just need to no wtf to do. And the BD is one of the supers which gets killed by others, if ur a titan just panic super n one shot him, same with a warlock. I don't see a nerf incoming, if anything they may reduce the duration to 10 from 12 but in pvp it may last 6-8 because using a melee takes energy and there are few times where u can get a kill every time u melee unless the enemy team is bad, though I guess there are a lot of bad players out there
