Something I've noticed since Taken King and now with Rise of Iron is the Hunter has been handed the short end of the stick. This isn't an attack on the other classes or a complaint towards them: this is to do with Bungie and their lack of thoughtfulness it seems (no serious offense).
The Hunter class possesses no exotics which have a Heavy/Special split for Yr 2/3 infusables. This is a problem and is relatively unfair in comparison to both the Warlock and Titan possessing at least 2 pieces each which have H/S split rather than weapon-specific (sniper and machine gun, fusion rifle and rockets etc etc...I had to carry 2 pairs of Bones as soon as they were obtainable for 2 different ammo needs...yeah, really fun Bungie).
As a note: Titans have: Twilight Garrison, Armamentarium --- Warlocks have: Alchemist, Purifier, Starfire --- Hunters : Nothing
EDIT: The New Warlock boots have the heavy/special split, giving warlocks 4 items, titans 2 (as far as I can tell) and NONE for the hunter....wow, classy,, but to continue:
Why they didn't give Hunters any with the split I don't know, especially considering the Lucky Raspberry made it into Year 2, which did have heavy ammo in Yr 1 and why the Bones of Eao also couldn't have been given their original heavy/special split.
I'm asking for some balancing Bungie, I think something like this is fair - they are Exotic armour pieces for a reason and I don't see why Hunters have to be punished with less heavy potential in PVE/PVP because you can not keep consistent, and I wouldn't think it too difficult to patch in considering you just did patches to encourage the use of the Boulean and the No Time To Explain due to their lackluster reception and lack of use, generally speaking. So please, give Hunters a little love and give them back their Heavy/Special splits.

Yes please

buuuummmmppppp

Don't forget how titans and warlocks have subclass abilities for overshields and health regeneration from melee and super while we dont, we have a CHANCE to regeneration health but the other two classes have guaranteed overshields and health regeneration from melee and super. Plus we are twice as easy to kill in super than the other classes. Nuff said, bump

I hate having NO option to get 12 Sleeper rounds as a Hunter. and there is NO current way for them to get more than 9.
-
Agreed they should do this, but our hunters will always come up short.
-
Hunters also have no exotics or abilities to get a supersheild from melee. Same thing for grenades.
-
My Bones have Shotgun and Machine Gun...
-
I dont think that hunters need anymore hevey/special reserves but i would rather hunters be able to genorate H/S ammo for allies in crusible using the dead eye perk so it has some significane to pvp. Only 2 hevey encounters in the match is ridiculous for me to use an exotic hevey when most people just change to truth when hevey comes. This way it would be more consistant
-
then give us warlocks a dodge ability I had to wait 3 years to get my exotic boots. hunters have an inate dodge and an exotic dodge. warlocks got no dodge. titans have 1 dodge. you want H/S split play warlock or titan. just like if im gonna play a strike where I wanna dodge I use hunter.
-
I agree with this completely. I play all three classes and it's a real annoyance on hunter to not have this.
-
Changing to weapon specific ammo was stupid. The trade off of primary, special and heavy is enough. They should just add more perks that compete with additional ammo reserves instead of increasing armor variation through lame nerfs.

-
This a great observation. Makes me wonder if there's some hidden vision for hunters that we don't know about. Or It could just be their lousy QA like we've said before. Inability to see the bigger picture in regards to balance the
-
Agreed
-
I agree bump even more so when the spilt seems to allow one more rocket or one more bullet more than the perk stat.
-
I never noticed that before. Good find. Bump.
-
I agree. I hate having to carry two of the same armor pieces just for a specific weapon ammo type. It just wastes space and I can't carry the armor I really want because it takes double the space to carry MG and Rocket ammo while Titan and Warlock armor only needs one slot to carry both. Bungie needs to do something with this.
-
yes they need love, and the iron banner cloak from ttk needs to be abolished, I look funny as fuk running with that high top on my head.
-
I've often wondered that myself and I always thought it was stupid to not give them an exotic that does that.

Edited by Kone19ps: 9/23/2016 6:21:19 PMDefinitely a pain in the ass we also can only double up one grenade. Though we can double up melee
-
Agreed, this is obnoxious.
-
The Hunter nerfs continue.
