Still Hunt Nerf? Are you aiming for mediocre?

"Finally!" (I thought) Celestial Hunters + Still Hunt have a big dose of awesomeness to bring to the end game table. It's been a long, LONG time since we had this. Well that was short-lived. (sigh). Who are you appeasing with this nerf? ".... bringing Still Hunt and Celestial into line" with what? Mediocrity? In case you haven't noticed, there's a reason all speed runners are Warlocks and Titans - well, I get they may have some grounds for complaint regarding this season's crayon-crunching offerings BUT the answer is NOT to make everyone mediocre. Warlocks are tied to their Well in end game but their other abilities more than make up for that. I watched a Titan applauding the Still Hunt/Celestial nerf and why? Coz if he can't be awesome then no one can. So Hunters, it's back to dull and squishy (or maybe First Descendant) coz mediocre is the new normal.

Calm down.

  • Watching you loser -blam!- hunters complain is great right now. Congrats, you get to understand what it's like to be a Titan a little bit.

    I'm still putting out 8.1 million on the witness, far outpacing almost any other setup. (That's only 900000 less than my best damage) Still Hunts nighthawk shot is only slightly weaker than an actual nighthawk shot now, and considering that's a super every 6th shot, I fail to see how it is mediocre. I'm fully expecting, and while I won't be happy about it, I can't really say another Nerf isn't warranted. Edit:the witness was solod by a still hunt hunter

    • crying like this over the still hunt nerf is both ridiculous and funny. still hunt is still going to be one of the top dps options, nevermind the fact that hunters have the most/best damage rotations in the game before still hunt even existed

    • Yes because infinite 700k+ shots definitely didnt need to be brought in line

    • The gun is still good, yall complain at literally every opportunity. Even if celestial didn't grant any damage boost, it still lets you fire all 3 sniper shots at once, increasing the dps a great bit. The fact that that it both gave 200k bonus damage and shot all 3 shots in once is what made it overpowered. The gun is going to be absolutely fine and still a great choice. It shouldn't be both the highest dps special and have over 4 million total reserve damage.

    • They no longer have to aim. They are just naturals.

    • It had NOTHING to do with Titans or Warlocks. Some dipshit streamer SOLO’ed the Witness with this setup and it hurt Bungee’s wittle feewings. THIS was SUPPOSED to be the “hardest raid ever create” by them and it’s a JOKE. They FAILED MISERABLY…..AGAIN.

      • Again, a weapon that I won’t get to use because some ‘dipshit’ streamer went out and posted “this is broken” before I even got a chance to…..guess this one is on me for not power consuming.

        • Taken from reddit (tested in Nessus Lost Sector) Still Hunt without Celestial: 309,789 Pre Nerf Still Hunt with Celestial: 473,583 (~53% more) Post Nerf Still Hunt with Celestial: 317,265 (~2.5% more) Means Celestial Still Hunt still combines all 3 shots, but only gives a damage increase of ~2.5% instead of ~53% like pre Nerf Still best on Hunter for more DPS, but no longer the big direct damage difference

            It’s still arguably the best sniper in the game

          • Honestly, I knew from the jump that thing wasn't hanging around long. WAY too good and cool for Bungie to let it exist. I'm honestly shocked it made it a month.

          • Titans complained because they didnt want to think about how to deal damage and want ro be the only special class. Wait till those same people see Cenotaph Microcosm, theyll want both nerfed as well just so they have the only special damage rotation.

              I hope you’re not this dramatic in real life, cause all they do is reduce still hunt hunters from the highest dps in the game to…still the highest dps in the game. And not even by that close of a margin

            • Speed running has almost 0 sway over how the game is balanced, even after then nerf hunters are still going to be putting up top tier damage numbers there is nothing to worry about
