Use stompies?
Cause we get new exotics that
*Checks notes*
"Increases damage of reflected projectiles."
...when using arc staff middle tree super.
Y'all keep begging for stompies nerfs cause you can't look up cause you're in an awful position and don't know how to read your radar. Or your sensitivity is too low. When we all switch to Gemini and take it away entirely or leave every primary fight early with Worm Husk, you remember how you behaved cause the YouTubers got y'all all stirred up.
Ask for new maps. Ask for exotics that will entice us to move off them, or a better intrinsic jump for the mobility class so they don't feel like a requirement. Cause begging for them to be nerfed or redone is going to make a worse Destiny when we can only look forward to exotics that work for 11 seconds out of the game lol.... You want to see cheese? You want to see broken crutches. You .7s keep whining till they relent and change them.
Hunter's strength doesn't come from some pair of boots. But it can.
Edit: I'm aware the new exotic is meant to encourage people to allow Hunters into endgame PvE outside of artifact mods. This was to elicit a response for the ones crying for nerfs without seeing the big picture.

Hunter jump is already the most evasive, instantaneous, directional jump in the game. Not sure what else you want there. The fact you don't already know that is...telling, to say the least. The [i]only[/i] justification for Stompees is the fact that both other classes can outrun it otherwise, especially with the other movement exotics. Nothing feels worse than popping an otherwise well-timed super for a Warlock to fly away at Mach 1. But even then, Stompees literally cost [i]nothing[/i] for the benefits they add. And they add more benefits than any other exotic in the game, even compared to the other movements exotics. They enhance [i]every aspect[/i] of the already most evasive class, which neither Transversives or Dunemarchers do for the other classes. You must be [i]vastly underestimating[/i] the in-game benefits of Stompees to even say the things you did. With Stompees you can: 1. Bounce your head for insane momentum 2. Slide further 3. Jump higher 4. Have exaggerated directional veritcal jumps and in air evasiveness 5. Have exaggerated directional jumps across the xy-plane to let you close and create gaps faster than anyone else 6. Move faster in general All with [i]zero[/i] cost. FREE benefits to the most important movement aspects in the game, which Hunter ALREADY EXCELS at, is ridiculous. And I've been on the train for a Stompees rework for years. Long before some YouTube dude came alone. Asking them to cost a dodge cooldown or something really isn't all the much to ask. Heck. If they "ramped up" with rapid kills or had a fat cooldown or something I'd say make them stronger. Don't care at that point. That right there is cost, risk, and reward. And before you get on the "but Dunemarchers and Transversive" nonsense, they do not enhance the already most evasive and directional class, and they do have a requirement for their benefits outside of a sprint speed increase, whereas Stompees do not. Adding this edit here cause people seem to have all the same responses. Did I say I wanted them destroyed so nobody used them? No. Did I say I want Hunters to be slow? No. I just think the base Hunter kit is very strong, and enhancing all of that for free isn't logical. I even said to make Stompees benefits BETTER if it meant there was some sort of cost. And for the rest of you that say Stompees are the only ones keeping powerful exotics like Wormhusk or Bakris at bay, that's nothing more than a testament to how powerful Stompees are, considering how good the base Hunter kit is already. And if you can't make the base Hunter kit work without Stompees, that is a YOU problem. It has very clear strengths within its neutral game. Now I got out of town work for the next couple days, so y'all have a good one.
