Sunsingers are Overreacting
I have seen so many posts about Sunsingers saying that they are useless now because the Firebolt grenade got nerfed. Wow, one grenade of three got nerfed. Here's a suggestion: Use a different grenade or use the Firebolt Grenade more straegically instewad of just throwing it willy nilly out in the open where people can easily dodge it. Have you heard about choke points because they are amazing there.
And the part about the melee (specifically Flameshield). You are mad because now you have a fair fight in a 1v1 melee battle instead of consistently beating the other player with them because of a cheap shield (even though Warlocks have the longest melee range).
And another argument about the Super. Just because your Firescrub Grenade can't be thrown willy nilly wherever, how about you shoot your fricken gun. Sunsingers can already get tue most damage resistance with Radiant Foreskin. They will consistently win 1v1 gun fights because it takes twice as long to kill a Sunsinger in Radience than a normal guardian. Use your gun! You have it for a reason.
And Viking Funeral was absolutely broken. It did deserve the nerf but it didn't deserve to be nerfed so harshly. I will admit that. The damage increase and/or the time the buff lasts should be buffed to be as viable as things like Melting Point. But until, then, you can use Radiant will to have the longest lasting super in the game, besides Ward of Dawn or Blackhole Tether exploit (I'll go over it in the comments). Or you can use Sunburst to support your team.
Overall, I can expect several Warlock Elitest to be raging in the comments and downvoting this post because they can't handle the fact that their easy button has been taken away. I can understand if you don't want to learn how to gain skill, but Warlock was broken and it deserved a nerf.

1 ReplyFirebolt grenade sucked without 2 other perks Fusion is meh Solar is meh Those 2 perks being VKF and Ignite. (2 damn perks needed to get the skill functioning). NO OTHER CLASS ever needs 2 perks to become useful. However salty trails losers got butt hurt and whined. it was not broken in any mode. I main Titan and can categorically state the combo was not broken at all. If you got hit by it you suck. Most of the time it is round corners. Like Literally I can count the time I got hit by a VKF Ignite FB on my hands. Out of hundreds of games. People fail at understanding positioning.

You do realize we have a super built off of how strong our neutral game is right?
-
Pretty much everything about sunsinger got nerfed, duration, burn, grenades, flame shield, everything. Idc about how useless it is in pvp anymore as I barely ever used it in pvp, I care that it's shit now in pve. Tough situtation? Flame shield, jk you still just get 1 punched through it now. Gonna radiance and throw a bunch of grenades? Nope you only get to throw a couple cuz low duration and also low recharge now. Need to set something on fire so it doesn't regen it's shield while you reload or something? Nope VF is gone so pretty much no burn anymore. Sunsinger just sucks ass now.

The nerfs to Viking Funeral and Firebolt Grenade inadvertently ruined Solar Grenades as well. The only thing left in their arsenal that's still functional is Fusion Grenade. As the subclass is now, it's worthless. Needs to be rebuilt from the ground up. No heavy reliance on DoT, and a Super with offensive capabilities that aren't reliant on a faulty neutral game.
-
It was absolutely 100% whiny Trials players that got Sunsingers nerfed. In no other game mode are they even relevant. Bungie nerfed an entire subclass to the ground because of one playlist.

[quote]Radiant Foreskin.[/quote] -blam!-ing lost it.

Cammycakes had a great video on this

Yes ALL THE SUNSINGERS ARE OVERREACTING JUST WAIT UNTIL THE NEXT SUBCLASS BALANCE UNTIL THEN STOP BITCHING ABOUT IT AND PLAY THE GAME

1 Reply2 of them got nerfed solar granade and firebolt. and dot got nerfed too. and the melee. and the super duration. just because it wasnt op but frustrating. golden gun is frustrating, striker too, nightstalker, bladedancer, voidwalker, stormcaller. a subclass that run around granades and melee isnt op its balanced and dont deserve this shit.

4 RepliesEdited by Angelis101: 6/28/2016 2:24:07 AMYou're an idiot. Go play against any other class as a sunsinger. I used the ram, full armor radient skin, and armor chest piece. I was still killed in 1 headshot from a longbow and a stillpiercer. I ran into a group of people trying to blind side them. Know what happened? They blinked and rolled and dashed out of the way and turned around and killed me. There was nothing I could do. If firebolt was a thing, I'd have killed them just like every other super in the game. They would be forced to at least trade with me. Fireborn is at rediculous joke, 1 headshot from the most used shotguns or snipers will end you before you even stand up. The class itself is fine if you spec doible fusion and res without the intention of ever killing anybody. The only grenade that's good is fusion and the meelee outside of radience lost a ton of power. Solar grenade now hits like a limp noodle where before it could stop or prevent a res. I primarily run voidwalker, however sunsinger was the only hard counter to the shade stepping, bones of eao, comboing God known as nightstalker. Playing against a nightstalker is a nightmare as a voidwalker because you're only utility is useless at the touch of a button for them. Take your bias somewhere else. I'm swapping to hunter as long as shade step removes all tracking and sunsinger is unplayable.

They were broken....now they are broken again but in a different way

3 RepliesI down vote because your speaking from a biased view point where sunsingers only use in pve. Its the honest truth obviously the class gave you to,much of a run for its money. Which is why your hear beating your chest like some arrogant pompus fool. Yet you support buffs to other clases. The super isn't super anymore and your to blind to see that do to hatetred of the class. I don't like sunsingers as their class wasn't very agressive wich is why I've ran voidwalker only until the lauch of the taken king and now use stormcaller also. Your not the only one to target this now non existent super. Hunters do,the same and without looking at your character i would believe you to be a hunter. The class is a joke due to poor design in the first place.

6 Repliessolar grenades were nerfed too, and the new viking fewneral (i spelt that wrong) reduces the damage you do, one time i was playing PoE and i tossed a bunch of solar grenades on the boss and it was bearly taking damage, and when i got a headshot on the boss it did 5000 even, when it wasnt burning it did like 11k damage, and burn time is only like 3 seconds.

13 RepliesNow it's the crytan who's take the place of the huntard. Also, it's not only 1 grenade that got destroyed but 2, play more with your warlock before you talk for nothing. The shield no longer had +1 in armor and defense but you crytan keep crying about it so bungie had to nerf it. And the warlock's suoer is his melee and grenade and can self-ress, nothing more, when you nerf that it's over while you crytan have your melee, grenade + fist of havoc for exemple. So if for you the sunsinger is in a good place, then you are a scrub who needed to nerf it to make it more easy for you...

The Blackhole perk on Nightstalker allows the tether to last for an infinite amount of time if enemies are killed within a few seconds of being tethered. However, this is difficult to do in PvP since plauers have larger health pools then that of enemies in PvE. You can test this by tethering the thrall during the thrall stage of the first part of the Omnigul Strike.
