Okay, I'm not trying to QQ about it, and make complaints without any kind of logical reason behind them. So bear with me as I explain why I feel this skill is OP in the Crucible (PVP).
Compared to the current Titan and Warlock supers Golden Gun can be prepped from the safety of cover before you go out to wreck havoc on other players. This alone is a big advantage and other supers require you to be in the line of fire to land them (longer than jumping out of cover to one shot someone with Golden Gun instantly). Then you add the fact that Golden Gun has 3 shots, for 3 instant kills, this isn't as big of a deal as there is no AOE effect to Golden Gun and the other skills could easily kill upwards of 3 people if enough people were dumb enough to be that closely grouped.
[b]TLDR: Golden Gun can be prepped from safety and has practically no delay to perform an instant kill once you pop out of cover and shoot someone with it.
[/b]
Suggestions: Make Golden Gun do half it's current damage and give it 6 shots instead of 3. This way you maintain the same max DPS for PVE on bosses, while requiring at least 2 quick shots to kill someone in PVP. When you add in the ability to pierce targets (if so chosen) this still could be devastating in PVP without entering the realms of OP noob mode. Also, if it could be balanced to at least require 2 body shots to kill and if a player is good enough, 1 headshot I think that'd be fair. Getting a headshot with Golden Gun wouldn't be too hard in some situations, but in others it'd add quite a lair of skill requirement to be the power house it is.
Look forward to hearing everyone elses opinions on this.
[b]Edit: Okay, so clearly everyone disagrees, fine I get it.
Btw, everyone who jumps to the conclusion I'm bad and need to get good has never played with me, so you know nothing about my skills. I'm not really one to boast, but I am a better than average player and I often finish matches with top scores and good K/D spreads (2-4 on average and in a few rare cases as high as 18)[/b]

1 ReplyLet me be the first to say that the supers are balanced want to know why? Don't worry I'll tell you exactly why. Titan - Fist of Havoc while having the difficulty of getting to the target the Titan is the hardest to kill during their super, Having Aoe as large as Warlock however not continuous damage but pulsating in which allows a Titan to safely stay in his Super to recharge his health. Warlock- While having both the Aoe and range the warlock is the only one who CAN KILL HIMSELF WITH IT so therefore any complaining about the Aoe and range becomes utterly retarded cause quite frankly its a super which can kill you and the hit box of the blast is large and there fore is easy to hit against walls and ceilings (Aoe and continuous damages allows kills on noobs who walk through it mad? don't be bad :3) Hunter- While the most played class also namely complained about most underpowered suck it up princess. The hunter has the longest range super and THEREFORE has that 2 second activation. Want to use your super in a 1v1 cause you're losing? don't be an idiot thats not what its intended to be used for. Get into cover snipe people and peak around corners for instant kills. Not strong enough? Can't get more than 3 kills? Too bad you have 3 shots for guranteed kills its not like titans and warlocks always have the potential to use it on three people while hunters if you can legit aim are guranteed 3 kills if people are near them excuses such as you can dodge are nothing but ranting from people who can't hit moving targets. All in all the supers are fair and all have their OPness and cons don't like it? learn to play all three classes you'll soon find out why the classes were made to do that Moving on to a different topic as mentions earlier in the replies the most concern should be the primary weapons and the amount of ammo given for special ammo not supers that are meant to be game changers

1 ReplyI completely agree that the gg is op and all these kids that claim it isn't are retarded
-
1 Reply#firstworlddestinyproblems Nah bro you just suck
-
They don't disagree they're all Hunters 😀
-
Ok wait your saying that GG is op? But the titans isnt when GG is active and a titan does his super after getting his skill tree to take less damage while doing it the GG will not always instant kill him. But oh god he shot me with a gun that take no skill since sliding, jumping, or moving out of the way is out of the question. All supers are op and are for a reason. There called SUPERS. When you butthurt people stop crying so much from getting shot maybe your gameplay will improve...

Be a Titan. Full game release make them east it with the lvl 15 set of abilities :)

1 ReplyAll sUpers are OP, that's what makes them fun to use
-
The Warlocks Nova bomb isn't exactly roses, damn thing gets me every time, so yeah I am using my Golden Gun, at least until 9/9 then I will be blade dancing :P
-
guns are op. ban guns. they kill me. Deej pls ban everything.
-
Just take away Aim assist and it will be golden. Pun intended.
-
6 Repliesreduce the auto aim so hunter fags actually have to aim and not close their eyes and get 3 free kills
-
Kind of agree.... Just take out aim assist when you get the super and problem solved!
-
Each super works very well with the class and how it's mostly played. Also each class is very balanced, I do not see any major tweaks taking place before sep 9
-
3 Repliesaim assist and walk around with no real effor and 1 shot 3 differ people. My lil cousin played his like 3rd match and got a triple kill easily thanks to this. You think Golden gun is the only problem?, well you would be wrong to think so. The whole PvP is a super smash bros + CoD mix of micro nuking mayhem. You get super'd or gunned down damn fking fast. Its like we don't have have armor and shields.
-
They really need to take out it's AA, it should be a skill technique.
-
2 RepliesWhy is a free triple kills so bad? A good titan can take out an entire team with his super. So whats the issue?
-
For me op means you can't counter it. I hand survived the golden gun several times by using my Titan super and if I have full health I can survive the shot and kill the hunter. I do agree that the hunter has the advantage of calling in the super behind cover but still it can be avoided. You can run if you here it in time( it makes a loud distinct sound) and if you have your super u can usually survive it. [spoiler]it does suck getting one hit killed but still not op IMO[/spoiler]
-
All of the supers are OP. That's why they are called [b]supers[/b] to begin with.
-
The only thing is you are really vulnerable while you activate it and it takes a while to activate when you are getting shot at
-
3 RepliesGolden gun is NOT OP. Warlock & the Titans super are OP.

Edited by ♠Druscylla♠: 7/27/2014 2:17:15 AMUnless someone kills you mid-transform or whatever. I've also been killed on my warlock while in the air casting. Titan and warlock specials are also AoEs so you need little to any skill to use them to best effect whereas if you can't shoot as well as the guy in front of you, your golden gun is wasted. I'm a worse player than you, I get it. Half of my GGs are wasted because I got killed immediately after casting the effect by a titan's Hulk-smash or a sniper finds me before I can pop his teammate in the face. But it happens. I just hit the Pink Square and sigh heavily and truck on. Also...I've killed myself with my warlock's super. Accidentally get turned and glance off a wall and blammo. THAT is unfair if you wanna split hairs.

1 ReplyYou forgot to mention the gigantic hit boxes in this game. Both the sniper rifle and golden gun hit boxes are enormous and with the golden gun you have a much higher chance of getting more kills
-
You have not linked your account meaning you could just lie about being good..... you're trash until proven otherwise stop complaining. Hunters have to prep to one shot you if you had a headset you would hear it and hide for a couple seconds. Where as others can use it as an oh shit button so it's a tradeoff. Get good or. ...

2 RepliesSnipers can be prepped in safety and one-shot headshot instantly as you pop out. stop complaining a Super is called Super for a reason. The Golden Gun is nerfed because if you call it out and are killed before you take anyone out the super goes away. Xilent Gaming is recruiting check us out. http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post?id=66629080

Good thinking, sir.

4 RepliesI think all supers should be taken out of PvP. At the very least, nerf the nova bomb's blast radius.
