Golden Gun is a problem in the Crucible. Lets look at the normal amount of kills per super charge ability use in PvP from an average player:
-fist of havoc- 1 maybe more kills
-defender- 0
-bladedancer- 1, 2, maybe more
-voidwalker- 1, 2, maybe more
-sunsinger- one if lucky
-gunslinger- 2 if not 3 or 4 easily
You cannot deny that this is true if you've spent any time playing PvP destiny. Golden Gun is extremely easy to use, has tons of range, is extremely accurate especially if the player is using the perk deadeye, and the time allowed for use is extremely long, for all of the other supers you have a short amount of time and for all except nova bomb you have to get very close to the enemy to kill them with your super before the short time runs out. I believe a solution to this would either be reducing the total time of use for golden gun or splitting the time between shots to around 3 seconds and if you don't shoot in that time you lose the shot.

6 RepliesSunsinger 1?! How do you play sunsinger? I turn on super burn grenades and decrease incoming damage whilst in radiance and spam the shit out of them! If you're only getting 'maybe one' kill from sunsinger it's because you're being a noob using it as a second life in games like control. Also your valuations of things like fist of havoc show you're using all supers wrong. Use it on a heavy or a nova bomb and see if you only get one kill...

Unless u take into account these things: -ease of use -potential kills =\= theoretical kills -defense boost -animation time -vulnerability -success rate -altered game mechanics when using supers Don't make urself look DUMB and uninformed unless u take everything into consideration Snipers are extremely effective against all hunters, they're the easiest to land headshots in within mayhem...

Gg is high risk high reward. No extra armor, no panic super to save you (usually) , no self heal like nova, and it isn't frantic and disorienting like bladedance. I will say radiance is kind of a joke compared to all of them offensively, but it is a great support tool
-
1 ReplyFoH & NB are 2 kills easily you just have to use it at the right time. Also gunslingers dont have an armor buff while GG is active so they can be picked easily at range or up close with a shotgun
-
No it doesnt

Lol. None of those are accurate. Voidwalker and FoH are the 3+ kill supers. Either you don't play those classes, or you just panic super the second someone comes around a corner.

Ive been using warlock lately and ive noticed i do tend to panic super but i get more super kills per game then if i used golden gun i dont need to wait for the opportunity to present itself just use it get my one kill and move on

2 RepliesOnly one kill with fist of havoc and sunsinger? What game are you playing?
-
Its the art of not panic supering and actually waiting for an opportune moment to use it, not just on one guy.

Edited by BRAVEAMERICAN: 9/12/2015 6:33:45 PMLet's just nerf hunters so they don't have a super, or a jump, or a throwing knife. While we are at it, let's make sun singer non existent, foh takes longer to activate. Nova bomb is smaller, and only the bubble lasts for a quater as long. [spoiler]now that sounds very boring[/spoiler]

Its also the worst pve super so it balances

1 ReplyLOLOLOL I easily get way more kills with a sunsinger, voidwalker, or striker than I do with a gunslinger!!! Also actually I love seeing gunslingers in crucible because I know I can one shot them with my sniper, doesn't kill any other super in one shot.
-
Defender gets more then 0 put on weapons and a sniper gg.
-
WoL + sniper Thank me later
-
Y do you think the Hunter is so popular in pvp? GG rox. Stop crying nerf every time something kills you ITS A SUPER!! It's called a SUPER for a reason
-
It's a super. Just run.

Edited by Ion_Eliminator: 9/12/2015 6:22:46 PM"One if lucky"... You must be high.
-
Yeah it pisses me off that a bladedancer gets increased agility, damage resistance, regenerating health on kill, and one hit melees for their super and Radiance gets damage resistance and one hit melees when it's charged... I'm fact without the right Exotic (HotPF or Ram) Radiance just feels Pathetic. Not to mention you're literally the largest super magnet on the map when you activate it.
-
You suck some big balls if you super for 1 kill.
-
You are the dumbest person on this forum today
-
I completly agree, though I think the only nerf that necessary is the range. It should be halved. If you shoot any further than that it shouldn't kill you
-
4 RepliesProblem with FoH is, everyone (myself included) seem to, when running striker see the words "Super Charged" and literally slam on the very first bit of red radar they see. With a bit of patience and timing FoH can wield a lot of kills.

1 ReplyTo paraphrase cayde-6: "there seems to be a lot of complaining about hunters' golden gun in the crucible but whenever you're in the field those complaints turn into cries for help. Funny how that is"

Blade Dancer 1-2 kills??? Please share what your smoking on!
