I don't play PvP, so I don't know if they were actually a problem in there, but they're absolutely dogturd now in PvE. They feel awful. Hunters are the slowest class in the game, and Stompees were the only way to feel a little bit faster, and even then hunters were being out-sprinted by warlocks and titans. The nerf is completely unneeded. It should be reverted asap. If only just for PvE. Bungie just completely ruined another exotic for no real reason.
