They haven't. Abilities were significantly stronger before the ability nerfs boid 3.0 just gives the illusion of more power except for the titan which is probably why theu are being singled out because lets be real everyone except them got reissued titans got the massive overhaul they need but with overhauls there is always going to be tuning.

It’s a space magic game ?! Plenty of gun only games out there .

I will never understand the community simultaneously opposing the notion that Destiny is just a CoD reskin while vehemently opposing the use and prevalence of the space magic that makes the game a different kind of shooter. Like, they are really out here demanding the game focus on guns and ignore grenades/abilities like every. Other. Shooter. Besides, until we get to a point where every charge melee is a 1hko and grenades are lethal on explosion/impact for every type, abilities will always be for finishing a fight or softening enemies up. Supers are only problems because of damage resistance while using many of them.

Hunters are now invisible 95% of the time they learned NOTHING

Apart from invisibility, there is nothing out there getting free kills when void 3.0 got released. Over shields from titans is only like an extra 30 hp but the game makes it seem like they suddenly got a whole new health bar (bungie should fix that because its misleading.) warlocks can spam axiom bolts but honestly all you gotta do is keep moving and you can easily counter those, you could also shoot them. I see a ton of players that have no idea that you can actually shoot an axiom bolt lol. Hunters are spamming invisibility paired with that blinding on dodge exotic and running shotguns for free kills, the ability alone doesn’t get kills but it grants hunters a massive advantage over an opponent which I honestly see as the only ability thats taking away from actual gunplay. Why bother using any primary weapon when you can remove yourself from enemy radar and blend really well on certain maps and walk up to anyone for a free shotgun kill?

When was the last time you got killed by a nade or melee ability? Me ...last year.

Does anyone actually believe anything they say anymore anyway?

Maybe the best for the game is elevate abilities and create your own build because it's too late for a good gunplay and maybe Bungie want the same thing but they don't say it in public

Void 2.0 made hunters and warlocks op and kept Titans as the class that everyone who has to let down gently while saying they can’t join the raid because they bring nothing to the team. Hunters are now infinitely invisible which will be op in the new raid; and warlocks are now invincible as before we could choose high damage but low defence or high defence and low damage now we get both the high defence of devour and the high damage of charge grenades at the same time, my build didn’t change it just got more op than it already was.
