I see a lot of Hunters complaining about "how weak" Shadowshot is.
As someone who's first character was a Hunter, I'd like to say that this class is not at all "weak" or "underpowered". It simply takes patience to use the super effectively.
And I see a lot of Titans saying that us Hunters were very unfortunate due to our new subclass. I'd also disagree with that. Our new subclass has perks where tethered enemies explode, dealing extra damage to all. As well as another perk that gives us 3 bow shots rather than one. Our melee blinds and if you equip "envenomed" it gives them extra damage.
There's a perk that counts all tethered kills as super kills rather than regular kills.
Also, when tethered, I can have someone in my fireteam use their super on you while you are suppressed. So no, we are not unfortunate. No, bungie did not screw Hunters over. No, Nightstalker does not need a buff (looking at all you sad crying hunters right now).
ALL of the Supers are so great. I'm really proud of every single new subclass we got.
Btw: I don't even need to hit you with my bow for it to do anything. I can shoot it at the ground near you and it would tether everyone nearby.
Edit: 1000 comments (: Nice.
I gave up on checking all the comments and stuff but I will reply to some comments as I see fit.

I like the bow and the tether. But I miss the throwing knives to much to play as anything other than a gunslinger

2 RespuestasIts a support class. Support classes are not built for pvp. People need to know this
-
3 RespuestasThe only needed change- Melee power now activates instead of trying to knife a minotaur in the face. I want SMOKE, not DEATH. Ty

1 RespuestaShadowshot is OP when you have the right upgrades on it
-
Same as others have said, it's a support class. Worked out great having three on our team to beat the new raid.
-
Shadowshot is the cats pajamas. End of story
-
10 RespuestasIt's fine if Shadowshot is an objectively weaker Super in PvP. So is Ward of Dawn. So is Radiance. The good thing is, these Supers are [i]fantastic[/i] in PvE.

Absolutely love getting over run. Predator and blood bond, vortex grenade and smoke with lockdown. Game over.

The animation of it seems to slightly raise you up when activating and I swear I hit a weird piece of the wall hanging down or a rock or something all the time. Just an annoying thing to get used to.
-
This class just takes a little getting used to. It's used very differently than any other class in the game. I also think a lot of the complaints come from people that haven't unlocked everything yet, the unlocks make it completely different than when there are no upgrades.

Keen scout=best perk for pvp
-
Was running round earth with my friend who's a titan,I snared a load of fallen,my titan friend the launches a dragons breath that tracked it's target(he has the exotic space man helmet)and devastated all fallen tetherd this only works on low lvl enemy's but it's effective.
-
The issue isn't the class, it is the hunter players who can't adjust to a different style of play that isn't kill everything when your super is up. Nightstalker is an amazing team based support or 3v3 super. It is also the best hunter subclass for pve imo and I don't see what the complaints are about.
-
It's Awesome
-
Hunters already have 2 very good pvp subclasses. Nightstalker is meant for pve. Its really good for sowing bosses and it generates a lot of orbs.
-
Hunters whinning about Nightstalker should go back to playing Bladedancer or Gunslinger and leave those of us who wanted a support hunter alone. I absolutely love it, hunter went from being a nearly useless team player (just stealth but the supers were rubish compared to titans and warlocks) to beyond amazing. Nightstalker for life. Long live anchor orb making, ninja smoke bombing, scout monkeys ;-)
-
I was hoping for it to have blink but oh well. The only real complaint I have are the nades
-
It's my new main subclass now most likely..
-
1 RespuestaYou forgot to mention how great Vanish in Smoke is.
-
People only complain because they don't know how to use nightstalker super right
-
Have you used it on the warpriest in the Kings fall raid? It is amazing all body shots count as precision and all precision do even more damage! I main Hunter and I like it.
-
Besides the grenades nightstalker is probably the best overall class in the game right now. No other classes can provide the ability to go invisible, blind, suppress, advanced radar, and a dodge move which throws people off in crucible. To someone with high gun skill this class is a must.

3 RespuestasOnly thing I don't really like is the grenades. Magnetic would have been nice :/
-
I love the super.... *drops mic*

4 RespuestasEditado por UnwindingEar5: 9/20/2015 3:18:08 PMI believe if a "hunter" is whine about the new subclass needing a buff or in general the whole hunter class needs a buff, then I don't consider those "real hunters". Coming from a guy who mains a hunter I believe all people who main hunters shouldn't whine about anything. Like Sunbreaker, just be glad titans can't self rez now. IMO [spoiler]it's glorious[/spoiler]

If anything the blinding flash bomb is OP in pvp!
