Fine; I'll explain why the Garrison works, and Graviton doesn't.

Many people who play as Hunters, who couldn't play against Sunbreaker, were crying out for it to be nerfed. Now, it is that of an armored Golden Gun. Many of these Hunters also think that Shadestep from Graviton should be granted to all subclasses. However, if we look at the description... [quote]Unlocks the Nightstalker Subclass Shadestep node for free. [/quote] While it says "grants Shadestep", in the fine print of the description, it claims to [b][i][u]unlock[/u][/i][/b] it, meaning that it only grants it for that class. Now, moving on. These players who run Hunters are claiming that Khepri's Sting is an example of why Shadestep should be given to all classes when Graviton is worn. Khepri's Sting is an exotic Hunter Gauntlet that grants invisibility. They are claiming that crouching in place is a perk from Bladedancer given to all classes. This is true. However, its exotic perk is Touch of Venom, not Stalker, which I believe is the name of the perk in Bladedancer's tree. Touch of Venom also grants Backstab, in a way. However, this is defined by its [b][i][u]own exotic perk.[/u][/i][/b] In no way does it say "Grants Stalker" or something similar. Now, moving on to Titans, their PvP history, and the fabled Twilight Garrison. Players who run Titans have been hit hard from their liable PvP subclass, the Sunbreaker, being nerfed. Now I'm going to try to keep this as logical as possible. The Sunbreaker was only slightly overpowered, and it was largely due to its immense explosions the hammers created. The explosions allowed HoS to not require hitting a target to kill them. Even with the higher damage reduction they had, HoS was not impossible to kill if handled correctly. Now let's move on. Striker has been given a very nice PvP makeover with the return of Armamentarium, which is so goddamn hard to spell, what the hell? They have also been given the ability to run full armor with the additional +1 armor granted by Unstoppable, and Shoulder Charge, which I believe now works in the air, is made slightly more deadly. As if it wasn't already deadly. Next, the fabled TG, and why it is not OP, and why it grants its exotic perk to all Titan subclasses. I will start by saying that the Twilight Garrison's description only claims to [quote]Press O,O or B,B to evade.[/quote] Does this say "Unlocks Evade" for Titans? I think not. It is an [b][i][u]ability[/u][/i][/b], not a perk from the perk tree. Which, by the way, isn't given to Titans in the first place. Finally, the Twilight Garrison, though not thought of by many...is not overpowered. The reason for this is because those videos you see of Titans running it and doing amazing with it? How many do you see doing that in the actual game? I'm not saying it's fake; I think these players are incredible for mastering the Tactical Air Support perk. However, my main point is that it takes a lot of skill to master this chest. If you don't agree with that, then how about this: not everyone can be as good as those players mentioned. Lastly, the TG is ugly as hell, so that's the ultimate reason why it's not overpowered. I've said my fill. Away with you, Guardians... Edit: It was also brought to my attention that the Air Evasion isn't given an "invulnerability" frame, for lack of a better word. You can still hit an evading Titan if you track their movement. Blink and Shadestep are slightly harder to kill during their frames. Edit 2: dragonhunter, the original owner of the Twilight Garrison, arrived. Edit 3: So...this topic is getting popular. Must be a big debate. Edit 4: The fake Butthurt is here...? Edit 5: In Y1, I always thought Shoulder Charge had a shorter duration in the air than it does now. I never used it that much, so I suppose my word isn't credible on that. Apologies, Guardians. Edit 6: Shit...the Pig is here! Ninja vanish! Edit 7: That one laser guy came. Edit 8: The creator of the 12/14 to 12/18 MotW arrived. Edit 9: The Traveler itself arrived. 》[i]The Exo Stranger, a Hunter Main[/i]
