Underwhelming Hunter Exotics
Bungie,
There's a few hunter exotics that really need a tuneup. I'm sure the hunter community would appreciate a more critical look at a few of these unpopular exotics that are under performing right now. I've included what I believe to be their weak points.
- Foetracer (Needs better tracking, better damage buffs or increase the threshold to proc extra dmg)
- Ophidia Spathe (or throwing knives in general. Every class has a 1hk ability [u]except[/u] hunters)
- Gemini Jester (nearly useless, proc's OEM??)
- Aeon Swift (and by proxy the other aeon exotics)
- Lucky Pants (Needlessly nerfed)
- Graviton Forefeit (Needs somthing other than just improved timer; smoke regen is useless in PvE)
- Knucklehead radar (I have literally never seen anyone use this since warmind)
I'd love to grab these out of the vault but there are so many better exotics to choose from. Maybe these could get some more love from Bungie.

They just need to buff Throwing knife damage overall (eg: Bottom tree knives should do around 160 to the head) Ohk throwing knives would just end up getting nerfed later on. I’d rather Bungie buff them to be good and have them stay that way instead of buffing them to be great and then having them end up being nerfed. Gemini Jesters is also pretty good in PvP. I don’t know what’s it’s like in PvE though. I agree that the other exotics could use a buff.
