50% of the PVP player base are hunters. Prismatic hunter is the class with generally the fast grenade cool down. Now you factor in smoke, and the updated swarm grenade (which does way too much damage), and abilities can be nearly spammed. In my honest opinion, they should just rework the class. The special ammo is in a happy medium, I wasn’t a fan of the meter system, but also not a fan of people maining chaperone or a main ingredient.

    I prefer people maining chaperone to abilities going unpunished as they often are now due to their design and the lack of potentially building into an abundance of special ammo as a counter to abilities.

  • Honestly I think it will be fine once prismatic hunters get tuned down a bit. Best we can hope for next sandbox change.

    Oh this isn't a problem that has come with prismatic, or even with strand or stasis, it is a fundamental design idea of the game to have abilities that have a way too high ease of use for their impact. Look at supers: what super requires any skill for it to be effective? It is just clouded in DR, autotargeting, and tracking. I suppose golden gun takes some effort as it isn't coated in DR and you actually have to aim at enemies with it, but even that is so forgiving with your aim that it stifles any power fantasy it was intended to give because it never feels earned to get these kills, so it just feels cheap. Obviously people differ, some enjoy just having a very forgiving set of abilities that instead of supporting gunplay just has a much more direct approach, and I'm not insane enough to demand the game caters to my needs over those peoples. That would be crazy. I'm just thinking about what would reasonably make the game more fun for me.

  • I agree, however I think it’s more potent now because everyone is playing prismatic hunter, and they have the quickest cooldown for both grenade, melee, and class ability.

    Perhaps. I just know that changing prismatic hunters is to the pvp experience what getting a bandaid is to a terminal cancer patient.
