Should the Golden Gun shoot homing rockets?
Okay, so by now everyone knows how underpowered the Hunter's golden gun ability is compared to the Titan's "Fist of I-Win" and the Warlock's Victory Bomb. Considering the Hunter is by far the coolest class and has the best lore, visuals and a throwing knife, I think that the golden gun needs to be buffed to compensate for it's lack of a secured "I win the game" ability.
For example, Titan sees room full of guardians defending a capture point, doesn't even need to aim, just looks at the room and presses both triggers while moving forward - insta triple kill, can't even defend against that shit. The Warlock doesn't even need to go into the room, just lobs a I-win-u-die bomb inside the room and everyone dies.
Now a Hunter? A hunter is very, very, VERY lucky to get 3 kills with a Golden Gun active before he/she/genderundisclosed either gets killed or the cd runs out.
Therefore, I propose that the Golden Gun should shoot homing super rockets that seek out enemies and kill them with impunity and in one hit. You shouldn't even have to aim the gun, you just shoot and get kills like all the other supers. To compensate for this, the CD time should be increased, but to compensate for that, splash damage should be added to the rockets so they kill anyone near the original target.
I think that's much more fair and on par with the other supers now.

Turn On "Aim Assist" lol, i am sure they will have it for those that can't aim. Thats pretty much Homing Device. All special does 1 hit on normal enemies and a few tries on bosses (From what i've seen). Hunter should be happy they can shoot a boss 3 times with golden gun completely removing most the health, as to Titan and Warlock we get only 1 shot which barely takes half or a quarter health.

Edited by Salt mage: 6/26/2014 4:21:31 PMi think hunters are for boss killing not crowd control EDIT did you play the alpha you could have but i dont think you did so wait for the beta

It would appear we have a new troll on the forums... [spoiler]and he's actually entertaining![/spoiler]

8/10 Surpisingly successful.

1 ReplyYeah, plus an additional AoE that burns enemies for a helluva lot of damage. And stunns them. And lowers their armor for the next 30 sec. Seriously, if you dig down a bit into the focus/upgrades You might find out that GG gets pretty strong later on, e.g. cooldown reduction (afair). I would advice to wait with judging the supers until at least beta is through, if not up until the final release runs for a few weeks.

First off there's already a perk within the skill tree that causes your enemies to explode when you kill them with the Golden Gun (research your own skill tree a little bit?). Second if you have good aim, you shouldn't need to worry about it honing in on targets. Golden Gun is fine, people who are good with it destroy.

Edited by Maintenance: 6/26/2014 10:27:40 AMI was about to note how the Gunslinger Subclass was meant to be a skill-based agility class in regards to combat setup and Super, and that there is the Bladedancer alternative varient and rumored future Subclasses to even out the "op'ness", but then I realized how ridiculously biased the OP is in regards to The Hunter's "coolness" meter, and was able to evaluate in the end that this is a Troll Post lol.

I mean, if it had a slight homing affect it would be more on par.

2 RepliesTerrible idea. Hodor.

Have you even seen the upgrades for it? So you want the CoD class even more OPed.

3 RepliesThe hunters has two other subclasses that has two different supers...if you dislike Gunslinger subclass, go try other subclasses & see which super best fits you. Personally, I'm in love with the titan...

1 ReplyNo, it's fine as it is. All you need to do is aim and shoot.
-
Lol u must be bad to think the hunter needs a buff

No, just no

Although your at it again you troll; you actually make an interesting point. The other two classes supers are AoE, where as the Golden Gun isn't. After taking a moment to think about when the Golden Gun would be better it occurred to me that in open areas where your enemies are spread out, this super would excel (so long as you are accurate). This is quite strange... Although obvious troll is at it again... You managed to lead me into an interesting though experiment about the Golden Gun super. I hate to say this... But... Thanks?

Get your accuracy up bro. I'm a beast with the Hunter. You just need to develop better tactics. No homing for anything. It's all about the skill!....Player.

Are you [u]THAT[/u] unsure of your accuracy? Lmao

4 RepliesUmmm...I played as a Warlock and believe me it wasnt that easy to clear out a room with a "I win you die" bomb hahah, I really didn't think my ability was overpowered. If anything I thought the knives for the Hunter worked way better then the melee for the Warlock if we are to compare. I think homing rockets are just crazy lol. I think it also has to do with how well you can play with your guardian too. I seen people with the Hunter and they kept dying and others who were running and double jumping all over corpses like it was nothing. So I really don't think it is a good idea.

I understand what you mean, but think of it like this. The titan and the warlock are very good at crowd control and little minions from swarming, but when it comes to bosses, the hunter can deal MASSIVE single target damage. On the alpha in the first mission you have to kill a Hive wizard, if you try to use your super with either the titan or warlock on it, you'll merely drain its shield. With the hunter, you can kill it with the 3 shots AND in pvp the golden gun 1 hit kills. If you don't think the hunter is powerful enough, YOU need to aim more carefully . The hunter is more than capable, only play it if your a precision player.
