Honestly bungie never play tests their game properly. They just listen their fanbase which almost 80% hunters, who always get their way cause they complain about everything that is too hard for them to deal with, they whined about Nova warp and not only did it get nerfed it got buried, and now 1 eyed mask. What about all the overpowered bs the hunters have? Their clearly supierior double jump, they have an amazing exotic for literally every scenario, and not to mention their subclasses are all absurdly powerful compared to most other guardian subclasses. It is ridiculous easy it is to play a hunter, I've been a warlock main since D1, but it took me using a hunter to get my not forgotten, playing my Hunter and doing well is a literal walk in the park. It makes zero sense how much armor spectral blades and even arc staff get for that matter. 1. Spectrals have so much mobility and can lunge at you from 5 metres away. 2. They are very difficult to land shots on as opposed to other supers.
3. Literal broken ass armor, most of the times even time shots don't work, all they do is run at you and spam their melee and don't even have to play safe, cause they know they won't die.
4. You give em max mobility, Soo much damn armor, and they can avoid shots so easily and then they can see through walls and go invisible. It is literally the definition of broken.
Every damn hunter is probably gonna complain about this post I know it. I dare them to play other classes and do well. I will say this tho, there are many players I do know who are just exceptional players and main hunters and can do the well on other classes as well, but bungie please stop catering to these other scrubs who need literal ability handicap to do good.
Never trust a hunter who says they play the class cause they like the design and they think they're cool. You know they're playing it for all the broken bs they have. Not 1, not 1 subclass of the Hunter isnt less then amazing, aside from maybe quiver on nightstalker, but even then it's a class you can work with.
Literally every warlock roaming super as terrible ttk, dawnblade is good but so the projectiles do such less damage and the animation time on all the super moves take forever. There are people literally winning comp games just cause of the spectral blades super, and they get destroyed in 1v1 gun engagements.
If I had to say honestly, every super in general needs a huge armor in nerf, bungie please reevaluate the crucible deeply and look into the deeper more experienced pvp player base opinions, 90 rpm snipers should be able to 1 shot to the head on any supers, 45/55 shotguns should be able to shotgun melee a super like in Destiny 1. Abilities in Destiny 2 run the pvp and its got to change, Ill agree destiny 2 pvp and D2 in general across the board has improved and gotten alot better, however aside from the Pve, not once, not once did destiny 2 pvp out do destiny 1 PvP. Please for the love of everything nerf armor on supers, it's ridiculous and a turn off, last time I checked destiny is a shooter, so let's focus on the shooting and not the skill less ability spam. Tired of seeing bad players spam op easy to use supers and weapons and get awag with having no thumbs.
The big problem is non hunter mains never voice their opinions, cause they know bungie won't listen and look into it, and of course hunter mains will never agree or say their stuff is broken cause they don't want to get nerfed, and I bet they're gonna comment in here denying the clear as day facts. I don't have to even tell you all this, you face it in the crucible all the time, you know what I'm talking about. Actually skilled players who are hunters will agree on this.

14 RepliesPeople need to stop pretending Hunters aren't considerably superior to Warlocks and Titans now. In Quickplay, you see some weapon and character variety because not everyone you find is a sweaty-tryhard, and it's not necessary for everyone to abuse the meta just to win. In High-Tier Competitive, the REAL meta gets exposed. Everyone running stacked with 4-hunters (mostly Spectral Blade), and you don't even see 1 Warlock being used. Last season, the only Titans you found were using OeM. Now that it's nerfed, all of them will just switch back to a Hunter lmao. Point is.... Quickplay isn't a good reference point to draw conclusions from about weapon/character balance because anyone with some skill can make the worst weapons and characters work there. Try using those on high-level Comp and see how truly handicapped you'd be.
