Throwing knives should not oneshot

No risk is involved throwing a tracking knife to the head a safe distance. Titans have to play strategically to land that thing, and it only usually lands on people who can't use their eyes or ears and the event if a huge -blam!-ing monster charging your ass. Handheld supernova requires you to charge and really isn't a big deal as it's easy to dodge and doesn't have an exotic to keep recharging it. If you miss SC, you die. If you miss Supernova, you die. If you miss a throwing knife, it's okay sweety you'll get it next time.

It’s not hard to land a throwing hammer. Hell you can literally see the thing actually curving towards your enemy. It’s way easier to use compared to Throwing Knives Handheld Supernova does have a start up animation but not long enough for it to require “skill”. It also has a good amount of range and covers a wide area. Also it does have an exotic that helps with the recharge and gives you some pretty strong armour. If you miss a Shoulder Charge you’re probably going to die. No disagreement here. However if you miss a throwing knife chances are you’re also going to die. It’s not like the enemy is gonna stop shooting while you’re throwing this thing. A ohk throwing knife would be way to op because Hunter can do Ophidia Spathe + Gamblers Dodge + Knife Juggler. I personally think that Throwing Knives do need a buff but it can’t be a ohk. They just need to do 157 to the head like they did in D1. That way they don’t ohk but they’re still deadly. So yeah, I agree with you about Throwing Knives not needing to be a ohk but disagree with some of the other stuff.

    • Goddamn throwing should not one shot, but if you think shoulder charge takes skill I’m worried about your perception of this issue

      • 1. The Knives aren't tracking,2. Handheld supernova is not hard to get off at all and I get energy back for killing you. I'm not saying throwing knives should be 1 hit but if it get this buff you can't even say no seeing how titans have a 1hit melee you can't even count the warlock because thats a grenade. Shouldn't you be begging bungie not to nerf the one eyed crutch seeing as its on the chopping block?

        theres no tracking on throwing knives, if you don't have someone in the crosshair you'll miss. i think bottom tree gunslinger could use a buff, including this also you don't die if you miss handheld supernova, its ranged, and you charge it behind cover unless your an idiot. it can't be avoided if someone catches you with it cuz its blast is the size of a rocket explosion, its extremely cheap in pvp

        • So,,, I have never supported the idea of OHK throwing knives. That idea is literally only supported by idiots. That said, I could not have laughed harder at “titans have to play strategically to land that” Shoulder charge has the dumbest, most insane tracking possible. I’ve watched titans activate it after I broke line of sight, only for their animation to curve around a corner and connect with me 10ft in the air. Now I’m not saying shoulder charge is OP. Because it’s far from it, it’s just obnoxious, it’s basically the jotunn of class abilities

            I think they should be buffed to D1 levels, they were in a good place then

          • Yeah I don’t think they should one shot, but doing 156 or whatever it was in early d1 would be really nice

                As a hunter main, I agree to some point. Throwing knifes and tripmines used to be able to 1 shot, but they can't anymore. Note that. Moving on, it should at least get a buff to it's damage. An exploding knife to the head should do a lot of damage. Like around 170, so you can finish them off with a primary. Throwing the knife from a distance is a gamble, the whole point of playing a hunter. If it hits, you deserve to do good damage. If it doesn't, you leave yourself incredibly vulnerable. Keep in mind, the knife's precision damage only affects one guardian, while the other two ohko abilities (Nova, SC) can kill multiple guardians. Just a damage buff is all it deserves. Also Contraverse hold does help recharge the grenade.
