It astounds me that people on here still, STILL believe that hunters are the meta in crucible. And they think theres no argument about it, they think its obvious and not even a close competition. So disconnected from reality it is crazy

Hunters in 6v6 are incredibly meta. Trails and comp it’s more balanced. Going invisible constantly and third partying distract or less skilled players with OHK weapons cheese trash.

These people replying clearly haven’t been in high level PvP games (same as you and I have) and witnessed the absolute ridiculousness that is Middle tree striker Titan with DM’s or Top Tree Dawn players with Ophidians on. Both of these combos are near unbeatable in trials if the player using them is a solid player. Hunters only run rampant in public/quick play games. Higher level PvP is almost completely dominated by Titan and Warlock.

I mean I dont think hunters are bad. I think they are good enough, they definitely have strengths like stompees which are obviously very strong and invis and the weighted knight gunslinger tree has a lot to offer. I dont think they need to be buffed in any way, But i certainly dont think they need to be nerfed. I play all 3 classes and give as fair of an assessment as I can and I find hunter to be the hardest to play at a high level. Sure the movement is good but movement versus a barricade, or a healing rift, or a solar grenade, or an intertia override damage buff, or ophidian aspect handling, or defender with bastion aspect makes "movement" look weak.

Exactly. This is the main reason as to why I actually value your standpoint on things as a fellow high level player. Well, I’m not top 1% like you but I’m above average at least lol. Hunter is definitely the hardest to play at a high level, especially if you don’t make a build around Stomp-EE5. Then you have to play incredibly niche based, and almost never get into gunfights alone. Not to mention that fusion rifles still can map you from about 10-15 M away.

A yes, people basing their opinion on statical information that’s publicly available is disconnected from reality.

What is your statistic

[quote]What is your statistic[/quote] What are global statistics? is the only question that should be asked. Hunters make up the majority of PvP players and as a general point of analysis that should result in a lower average K/D due to a larger sample size however hunters have on average a higher global K/D. That said top three performing subclasses between January 22nd and February 22nd were Arcstrider, Nightstalker, and Dawnblade.
