Yeah, the blast radius of the hammers are a -blam!-ing joke in its current state. I made a 5min video showing clips of how weak the hammers have become and how inconsistent they are. You think I'm bullshiting? Just watch the video and you will see what I'm talking about. This is not me crying, I want CONSISTENT! If i hit someone with a hammer I want a kill in return, I wanted to be rewarded for being accurate not punished. Just make the Blast radius of the hammer i bit bigger and it will solve itself.
Edit1:
For the people saying: "Golden Gun has no blast radius and kills on impact, so HoS needs to kill on impact too".
Difference between HoS and GG:
GG: insta-kill lazer beam with a big ass hitbox (almost impossible to miss) in 1st person (very easy to aim) with 0 travel time and unlimited range (in PvP)
HoS: Has travel time (which was increased with 2.1), effected by gravity, doesn't go in a straight line, 3rd person aim (which can be very awkward)
HoS works basicly like a rocket, you can get as accurate as you can with them. Do you expect from a rocket to kill someone only if it directly impacts them? I'm not saying that the hammers should have the same power as a rocket (not by a longshot), but when I throw a hammer right next to/in front of the enemy I except to get a kill. Not to mention that it is almost impossible to hit a player who uses blink/shadestep/twilight garrison. So yeah we need a little blast radius buff to make this super CONSISTENT again, because right now its the most inconsistent super in the game along with arcblade.
And even when you land a DIRECT hit, it fails to kill the player which is very sad. Clink link below for another clip of how inconsistent the super is:

Keep giving links to videos where a hammer should but didnt kill the target, Bungie needs to adress this.

The only thing imo that should have ever been changed was getting health regen and an over shield with every hammer. If they had taken those out of the mix I would have been perfectly happy and I play as a titan some but mostly warlock and hunter.

6 RepliesHammer hits 1 foot from Hunter and explodes *5 damage* lmfao Bungie can't do anything right

Sunbreaker was overnerfed, flameseeker is useless, and its blast radius is nothing. The travel time of the hammers were also nerfed. For people that say we can't aim for shit, its almost impossible to kill a -blam!-ing moving target with those hammers, it doesn't have any tracking or explosion radius. It isn't a golden gun. Its more useless than a rocket launcher without tracking because of the horrible blast radius.

the 5 damage part is the best xD

3 RepliesIt's nice to see the jump strat works

1 ReplyYou were far from accurate, but the blast radius did look pretty bad.

Edited by MinkfordBrimley: 12/25/2015 9:00:09 PMThe subclass is basically shit-tier bladedancer now, since the only reliable perk is suncharge, which can only be used 4 times. The worst part is, people consider this balanced! Since it was nerfed, or I'm sorry, that's not the right term, since it was gutted and left to die on the side of the road, Titans have gone back to the bottom

Watched it until you started looping it. All I saw was you missing every throw. The one you actually hit you got the kill for.
-
Now it takes skills to get some kills

1 ReplyOP is Kirk Hammet. [spoiler]Too much Wah-Wah[/spoiler]

Lol they destroyed sunbreaker wow.

2 RepliesWith how bad you're missing those hammers the nerf wouldn't have even caused you to get any more of those kills. You're trash

It was overnerfed But I lol'd a lot
