Nightstalker's Shadowshot needs a slight buff where hitting someone directly with the bow automatically Suppresses and slows a target, instead of waiting for the Tether to activate.
I know I could've shot it past the corner and maybe caught him in it, but I wanted to prove that the Tether takes too long to activate.
Hate me all you want.

Hopefully they fix this before trials or i won't even consider using it

I think the concept is a little dumb. A super shouldn't be the only way to stop a super. I can kill a Sunsinger in radiance or a bladedancer WITH JUST MY HANDS!

wow that's painful to watch

2 RepliesTitan main.. Still agreed. Suppressor grenade instant but not the shadow shot? Unfair. Make it instant.

5 RepliesMore so "tether Sunbreakers properly". XD You have so many options, and you know damn well that shooting them directly with shadow shot doesn't work... So why shoot them directly with shadow shot? One video where you reacted poorly in a situation where you had minimal time to react anyway doesn't justify much. If it were a gunslinger going around the corner, you probably would have been just as dead..

3 RepliesI agree. I've shot many sunbreakers, storm callers. Blade dancers, etc. directly and it doesn't shut their super. Pretty annoying

Edited by Pew First: 10/2/2015 10:14:17 PMI agree. Once you activate your super and use it, there shouldn't be any delay. The only reasoning I could think of for a delay is because it's the fasted activated super in the game. Blade dancer and gunslinger each have a little animation delay when they activate the super. Gunslinger jumps up in the air pointing the gun skyward. Blade dancer jumps up with swords behind him. Nightstalker shoots bow! I play all three classes and like playing a sun breaker but, no class should be strong enough to survive one shot from a golden gun.

That's what I've been saying. If it's dead on impact it should be instant. There are instances I've done that and he's flung a hammer in my face and I couldn't capitalize on shutting him down.

Agreed

4 RepliesTitan here, and I agree with this
-
It should straight up kill him if it's a direct hit I mean come one
-
As someone who plays all 3, the delay from impact to the tether needs to be reduced.
-
I agree. I was playing on my lock in mayhem. I was directly hit by a guy with a bow (he had quiver and missed me once before hitting me) but after I was hit, I killed him with my storm trance before I lost my super.

5 RepliesIt shut me down instantly other day

Warlock main vanilla turned Titan TDB and I agree, my suppressor grenade has a delayed detonation but that's normal because it's a grenade, that's what they do. However, Shadowshot is a Bow and Arrow for crying out loud, once hit it should have an immediate suppression effect on the one hit if they should survive the initial shot.

Edited by Sancho: 10/2/2015 9:03:15 PMThose hammer throwin dumdums can be pretty predictable, especially in tight spaces. I use the perk that makes the tethers reach further and have longer duration. Use it when you hear them approach, not when you are face to face with them. This is what the enhanced radar perk allows us to do. Trading supers won't end well for nightstalkers. They are also a blast to use in pvp when you have buddies on your fireteam that can complement and take advantage of your tethers and traps. Edit: do NOT use ns in rumble.
-
Hitting him directly should have ended the super. I agree
-
It really should have a damage buff, cuz the only reason the tether isnt proxing is because it thinks the emeny was killed, so it doesnt activate.
-
Unfortunately I know this feeling all too well
-
I one shot a sunbraker the other day with goldengun
-
The struggle is real. A direct hit should instantly suppress if it doesn't kill them. Anchor still has to form to tether anyone without a direct hit. Nowhere near as easy to direct shot with the bow as it is to throw those freaking hammers. :\

Hurrah! I didnt need to be summoned. 😄

Thank you for posting this, I'm sick of everyone saying "just use your super hunters!" It doesn't work the way some people think

3 RepliesEdited by sargetc: 10/2/2015 8:29:13 PMI play a Titan more than the other two... that being said.. even when I Super, I have been one hit killed by GG and (I think) a straight shot by void bow. Aside from lag which affects us all, it is definitely possible
