Weak Hunters in D2's beta

I hope I'm not the only one who's found that Hunters are the weakest class, Titans and Warlocks can tank through the Strike and I find myself being killed a lot more easily as a Hunter in Crucible. Even with the Arcstriders secret combos it's super is weak. The new golden gun? Weak. The Hunter's ability. Shadestep or a 360 no scope animation that reloads your gun. Compared to Titans who can drop a body sized shield that protects and blocks off areas of the map or a crouch shield that helps shoot enemies. Warlocks have their rifts that heal you or make you deal extra damage. Hunters don't have this. I get that in lore Hunters are solitary Guardians but they literally have nothing to make them as good as Titans and Warlocks

  • Confirmed. Been playing titan and warlock on beta and have much better games (and never having played those classes before). All hunter perks are lackluster.

      I hope I don't ruffle any feathers here, but I think Hunters are for more of the people who like a challenge and not for people who like things easy. I got a lucky team wipe (when they were all spread out and without Razer's Edge or Hungering Blade on) in Control and man was that more satisfying than missing a Nova, Tether or Fist of Havoc. So a skilled Hunter is a deadly and dangerous one.

          • Even in D1 you risk Speed and Agility over being a tank.. Hunter have always been a glasshouse. Unless you spec correctly. They're fine I've spend the most time on the arcstrider. He's a monster when used not like an idiot.

              I... disagree! The gunslinger subclass to me feels weak, but I never enjoyed it in D1 either. I love the dodge ability, I can roll melee, roll melee in a group of mobs and its so much fun! In pvp I roll to reload and can keep shooting the enemies, or roll to cover when I need. Roll into that healing rift and punch a stupid warlock right out of it! A wall? I can jump over that, or just shoot the thing down. It sounds like you need to be one of those other classes then, rather then a hunter. Learn the class and get some skill before whining, or just go be a warlock or titan who you think are so great.

            • I agree the dodge roll is weak. I'd rather have invisibility or at least an option to choose one or the other.

              • Hunters always complaining smh 😔 makes the rest of us real hunter mains look bad. Hunters are extremely strong in destiny 2. EXTREMELY. you just need to know how to use them. If you don't want to take the time to learn something go play a different class and whine about that, I'll be over here shoving my stripper pole up your whole team's ass. And when they have all disintegrated in a beautiful wash of arc light I'll be coming for you. And you can put up a little titan wall or even your warlock rift, he'll you can even try to roll away, but one way or another you will suffer the same fate. Then they last thought you will have in that small little hunters brain of yours will be [spoiler][i]nerf arcstrider [/i][/spoiler]
