Ok just hear me out. I have all three characters and do enjoy them all. So this isn't a hate post about hunters.
Let's be real for a minute. If this is going to be some horde mode with endless waves of enemies then what do hunters bring to the table that can help defend in a team work style game play
Warlocks:
- nova bomb will clear out huge packs of enemies especially equipped with obsidian mind. Endless nova bombs will be a huge factor
- Raidiance can play a big roll in this considering we could see a lot of death when we get into high waves. Being able to come back to life and pick up other down teammates to save the game could be huge. Not to mention endless grenades to clear out huge groups
Titans:
- Ward of Dawn can play a huge part in this. Especially paired with helm of saint 14. It's a big team oriented super then can benefit everyone and keep the fight going with blessing and more damage with weapons
- fist of havic can be key when taking out a big group on your ass or clearing out those bosses that we just can't take down at the moment
hunter:
- blade dance could be effective but in the end it really doesn't do much when you have too many enemies grouped and doesn't make a lot of orbs to help your teammates get there supers back. Going invisible could help a lot but thats about the only thing I see be useful. Hunters don't have much armor to begin with so this is what worries me.
- golden gun in my opinion could be the least effective super in this mode. Yes It can take out some bosses quick if need be but the fact that you only get 3-4 shots doesn't seem to me like it would be as much use in the team based mode where everyone needs to support each other. Only thing I see being useful is that fact that they can create quick orbs for everyone when it's needed
Please give me your opinion id love to hear it!

Um bladedancer with the wave plus kills with arc blade return some of the consumed energy? Golden gun with combustion keyhole combo. So yeah how are they useless?
-
Actually pair Golden Gun with keyhole, combustion, and Achylophage Symbiote, and you got yourself a mob clearer.
-
Hunters have that explosive gun thing, plus if your skilful you can over-penetrate too. Giggidy goo.

Gunslinger cumbustion Bladedancer with encore and spin attack

5 Replieshunters had their little moment of glory with crota, now in the arena will exist no
-
Basically it will be like the old VOG hard mode days that people didn't want hunters in their team.
-
Hunters going invisable will be better for saving the team in higher level waves than fireborn. Hunter can res the whole team undetected. While the warlocks take major damage whike trying revive team. Idk.

3 RepliesGolden gun with Combustion. Nuff said
-
3 RepliesA blade dancer with mask of the third man and the encore perk can have almost an unlimited super, so long as there are enough enemies to continually kill. A gunslinger with the symbiote helm and the combustion perk can easily clear out a huge group as well.

1 ReplyUmm in my opinion hunters supers will be amazing, they both are amazing for crowd control and can do massive damage I would say golden gun and arc blade are both better than nova bomb or fist of havoc because you can ready them before you see a horde of enemies
-
Supers may not be as effective but honestly, the gunslinger perks such as the precision and reload perks are amazing. I play my hunters so much more than my warlock even though I started at launch with a warlock.
-
For golden gun use keyhole and combustion and you can take out mobs of enemies
-
Run gg with the perks I forgot the names, the one that over penetrates and combustion should do good
-
3-4 shots that pierce with the ability for it.
-
Hunters can always go invisible and clutch save if the bosses are beast mode. Bungie wouldn't be dumb enough to make a class useless. Even in the raids all the characters have some use. It's one of the reasons I made one of each character. Tho now I need to power level the hunter I just re made lol
-
Well, I'll be able to shoot the enemies so I guess that is a bonus.
-
1 ReplyWe have no idea what arena will be. Perhaps wait until we no what it entails before we start class discussion.

Help killing the major enemies while they are getting a fist of havoc and a nova bomb in their faces Every class will have its role, every class will be important.

1 ReplyIf supers are how they are now, most likely be using golden gun to create more orbs for my team. Im mentioning the current state of supers because id assume arc blades will be as useless as it is now at high level pve content.

1 ReplyMask of the third man Showstopper Encore Win

On the golden gun. "Combustion" /end thread
-
If we face low tiered groups of enemies. They can be slaughtered by arc blade. You can set it up to the point you can't use it anymore and still have super energy left. Golden Gun will give you more orbs and take out huge groups with combust and keyhole. If this is a endless wave style( which no one knows ) then the hunter will be just fine.
-
1 ReplyHunter supers will be more effective than nova bomb or FoH. Showstopper is lol FoH only you can do it multiple times per super.
-
2 RepliesI agree, Hunters are so useless in this new mode we know literally nothing about. Totally agree.
