  • As a long time hunter I can tell you how I play and you can take it with a grain of salt and let me know if it helped. So when I play if I can I place all my eggs into the basket of strength and disincline my reasoning for this is due to my play style. My favorite thing about the hunter is its versatility this mainly stems from the unique melee that each subclass provides. For gunslinger I love chucking knives and it helps a lot when you are about to reload and need to finish the kill and switching takes to long. For night stalker smoke grenades can make the difference in dire situations ether disorienting the enemy, poisoning them, or making you invisible so having them on a short cool down is important. For blade dancer the blink strike has a perk that further increases the cool down so you pop one off about ever 15 seconds which is nice because of the extended range. The Grenades are my second most important area of focus. Gunslinger offers tracker gernade which see constant use in crucible, I however prefer tripmines due to their high post mortem rate as well as their ability to stick to phalanx shields (and other enemies) and kill the phalanx and everything in front of it (BE WARNED!!! I can not tell you the amount of times I have died via my own grenade either cause the timer has gone off and I'm about to walk over it or the enemy I have stuck runs towards me for a hug. The void grenades are fun because using one of them and then a smoke grenade produces the same desired effect twice. A large orb of space that the enemy can not cross unscathed and putting them in two doorways is fun. The supers for hunter are good but j don't put as much stock into them most of the reason is because supers are the only thing (in most cases not counting perks) that can get increased cooldowns for various things such as killings enemies and the like. While increasing the intellect will aid you in using you super faster. It will charge must faster than the allotted time (mine being 4:45 and on a good day can get it charged in 3-4 with some kills) so personally I don't put much into intellect for this reason. I hope this helps a little if this isn't how you play or doesn't work for you sorry for the long read :/

    • My preference: Nightstalker: 2/5/5 (Disc/Str for constant grenades and poison grenades. Used for map control.) Gunslinger: 5/5/2 (I go Int/Disc over Str, as I use the precision knife hits recharge ability - and I don't use it that often unless I know I'm going to get it.) Bladedancer: 5/5/2 (I go Int/Disc over Str here since I use Fast Twitch as my Bladedancer melee, it recharges practically every 5 or 10 seconds, something like that. And I quite honestly don't melee that much as a Bladedancer.)

    • Gunslinger: Max int/str (or int/dis if you cant aim with throwing knifes i personally love them) Bladedancer: Max int/dis Nightstalker: Max dis/str Dont bother with tier 12 right now wait for the dlc which will make it easier to achieve thanks to the new lightlevel cap of 400

      • Here is what you do, you see that subclass gunslinger, don't use it. You have only one grenade that actually hurts people and that's the only bad thing. Trip mines are a joke! People purposefully run through trip mines because they know they can't die at full health. So use either blade dancer or night stalker.

      • My hunter (invis shotty bladedancer) I'm aiming for 5 intellect, 4 discipline, 3 strength. I think that's ideal for me. What subclass sdo you like the most? For gunslingers I would go for max intellect, max discipline and 2 strength. For nightstalker 2 intellect, 5 strength and 5 discipline.
