Do you finally acknowledge that Hunters are by far the best pvp characters?

How much proof do you need after every match of Guardian Games Supremacy is being mercy? Others don't stand a chance against Hunters.

  • Phony baloney! I have been mercied in quite a lot of matches against warlocks and titans, they are very much busted You are either a noob, not utilizing your class, lying, or greedy, and want to further compound our disadvantages and helplessness for your personal amusement

      Balancing the Sandbox is crazy difficult, and it oversimplifies things to call something "the best" without context. There are two reasons why Hunters MIGHT need nerfs in PVP: 1) Very High Usage Rate 2) High Effectiveness (Especially if they are highly effective in high skill lobbies) Let's ignore argument number 2 - we reject it as false (lots of players deny that Hunter is OP). Even without argument #2, there are still compelling reasons to nerf parts of the Hunter kit. Argument #1 assumes that variety is desirable. If variety is desirable, then things that are used way too much or way too little are undesirable. Void Hunter is used by 1 out of 3 players in Trials, significantly more than any other option. This means that Void Hunter relates to argument #1, and a change is needed to bring its usage into line with the other options. What that change should look like is up for debate. - Should other subclasses be buffed? No, because Hunters are already most used. - Should Void Hunter be nerfed? Maybe. That would likely work. - Should other Classes recieve buffs (esepcially the other subclasses that are underused)? This would also work, but it doesnt solve the fact that most Hunters are choosing Void. The most efficient solution is to: 1) Nerf Void Hunter 2) Buff the unpopular Warlock and Titan subclasses This approach is problematic because it ignores effectiveness. [b]For example,[/b] maybe players who use Solar Titans currently win 90% of their games. However, the usage rates on Solar Titan is only about 2%. Should you buff or merf it? It is hard to say. From an argument #1 perspextive, it should be merfed. From an argument #2 perspective, it should be buffed. And all this assumes that effectiveness remains constant accross skill ranges. For example, what if Solar Titan dominates low skill lobbies hut sucks in high skill lobbies? Or vice versa? Should you buff or nerf? Balancing the sandbox is hard. At the end of the day, I wouldnt worry too much about it. Its a game after all

      • They have an easier learning curve compared to the other classes, yes.

        • I acknowledge it has the easiest learning curve due to its more fluid vertical movement compared to the other two. Anything else is anecdotal.

          • I played all 3 characters…and was just as normal as ever…tried my best, gave as good as I got, still got stomped. I think there was just one or two games on my W that were a good scrap as part of a likeminded team….and these were fun! Moving on… How did Warlocks win Guardian Games and be crowned ‘Champions’?! 🤔 If true, I don’t get it?! That is all. Ease Springs! 🙄

            • [quote]How much proof do you need after every match of Guardian Games Supremacy is being mercy? Others don't stand a chance against Hunters.[/quote] Iv said this several times and made several posts about how incredible easy hunters are to play. 99.999% of players play hunter for a reason and it’s not because the cloak looks cool. Hunters are free wins the class, and it practically plays the entire game for you. But all the hunter crutches will downvote your post into oblivion because they don’t want their 0 skill class to get nerfed while titans and warlocks get shafted over and over and over.

              • Nonsense. 1. Most Hunters playing Supremacy are PvP mains or at least have PvP experience. 2. Titans and Warlocks are mostly PvE mains and have little PvP experience. 3. No team balance / lobby balance. The result is what happens in Supremacy.

                • Do you have any ideas on buffing the other classes? Here are a few thoughts that came to my mind: - Reduce the cooldown of Icarus Dash by a second or two. - Give Stormcaller access to Blink. It's always felt odd to see Arc Warlocks integrate two adaptations of Blink into their kit (Lightning Surge and Stormtrance's Ionic Blink) without actually using the normal version instead of Glide. - Increase Warlocks' movement speed while placing a Rift. - Make it easier to build momentum with Glide and Lift, allowing Warlocks and Titans to reach top speed faster. - Give Voidwalker a new melee ability. - Let Titans strafe a bit while placing a Barricade (kind of like Warlocks with Rift), and maybe reduce the cooldown of the Towering variant.

                  • Absolutely just look at the super options and standard gameplay. Golden gun, insta kill, massive range, plus refund for extended duration. Spectral blades. Storms edge blade throw. Massive distance. Instant kill. Repeatable up to three times. Standard game play. invis spam. Clone spam. Smoke grenade spam. Instant vertical jumping space access with double jump. These are all reasons I was so keen for Project payback where we only had one character to create with access to everything. That way people could use what they wanted and there would be no more class imbalance.

                    I think it’s more to do with skilled players choosing to play Hunter than the class itself.

                    • Some hunters I have faced have relatively new accounts, and possess suspiciously high skill in comparison to their account history Some apparently are free users, and live in pvp, they do nothing else Everyone calls us scrubs, and considers us as such, I don't know what you guys are talking about Also keep in mind that some of these players maybe using devices, or it could be that they are just naturally talented in fps gunplay, the class itself doesn't have anything fancy, it is the only class that is bare bones, and has to rely on evasion, their wit, and their weapons to pull ahead

                      • It’s so annoying like if it was titans or warlocks they would have a hotfix next day. Look at my game history and look at hunter players they have the highest kd in supremacy mode also mayhem they think they are special because they can easily get seventh columns I can’t wait for trials tomorrow one hunter on a team

                          Titans have the highest win percent in competitive/trials. Hunters are pubstompers because there's basically no communication in 6v6 casual matchmade. Go do what everyone like you does and get in a premade, or focus on the competitive modes where you're expected to communicate instead of whining on the forums about losing all the time. EDIT: you even exclusively play Titan, you have no excuse

                        • I haven’t ran Hunter in PvP for years. Last few days I’m using it in gg supremacy and is so good not to have all these titans running Helm of Saint14 on arc, Loreley on void, Curass on solar etc. or no exotics at all. Lost only 3 games out of 20 while on Titan only won 3 out of 20. The average skill of players is so huge.
