Poll: does golden guns need a buff in PvE
After playing raid on hard mode and seeing warlocks revive themselves with damage, and defender titans poppin bubbles I tried to pop golden guns for some easy kills.
It hardly killed one enemy...golden guns should do more damage IMO.
1k damage to Atheon? Wat!
Waste of a super.
Ice breaker does 12k fully upgraded
Edit: Atheon was a bad example.
Golden gun is weak vs minotaurs and harpies also. Give it a try

Needs a faster fire rate!

Put on the keyhole, combustion and range perks. Also wear the symbiote helmet for an extra shot. Easy 5+ kills. Also have gunslingers take down the yellow goblins at the gatekeeper checkpoint, two yellows killed by GG spawn 9 orbs
-
I know how to survive 1 golden gun shot to the body :D

12 Repliesfunny how my recently deleted hunter was 1 shotting mobs in hard with golden gun(3 shots on minotaurs).....but hey this is a biased poll since about 75% of the game is hunters who just wanna be OP in pve and remain op in pvp. titan cant even use a super on a boss without being one shotted by stomp. do you hear us complaining? no. you dont. wanna know why? because we dont need to super as a crutch like all hunters do. all i see is either hunters complaining that they arnt strong enough or mindlessly complaining about a titan just because they got outplayed. do you hear warlocks and titans complaining that we cant 1 shot all mobs in hard raids with our supers? no you dont. like i said, we dont use our supers as a crutch. 0/10 move along (fyi im just tired of seeing hunter needs buff threads, the last thing they need are buffs.)

No it does in pvp, it should kill you, and then when you revive again you die from the same shot
-
All supers are underpowered in PvE, IMO. The nova bomb does like 700 damage to most bosses. My hand cannon does more than that. I've seen gunslingers have to put 2-3 shots into a minotaur just to kill it, when it should only take one.
-
It feels a bit under powered for the bosses indeed.. Btw, having the raid armor which gives you more super ammo for destroying oracles and the helmet for one extra golden gun shot is awesome if you're going inside the portals. You take them down in one shot and after having destroyed four your super is pretty much instantly recharged so you can kill the other oracles :)

3 RepliesEdited by Andy2Spooky5me: 10/19/2014 8:27:24 PMGolden gun is for quickly taking out small mobs or majors/captain ect...it's not meant to shred bosses health...thats like saying BUFF every super for PvE because all the supers suck on every boss... thread is pointless, also golden gun should be used to take out the remaining harpies so players on the outside don't get overwhelmed when defending, or should be saved for helping the relic holder kill the mino/goblins.
-
Best thing to do is double or even triple the damage. It's already a One Shot Kill in PvP so a damage boost wont affect it there.
-
5 RepliesHow about just making it able to crit. That would be a start.
-
It really should do at least as much as, or more than a critical sniper shot. Or, golden gun shots should be able to crit as well.
-
3 Replies*golden gun* 1) that English 2) you only pull out 1 gun
-
1 ReplyYeah, I can hit Atheon with my sniper for anywhere from 8-10K on a crit. I'm lucky if GG hits for 2K+ per shot. In PVE there should at least be precision damage or crits if you hit the weak spot. Why else have a super that can be accurately aimed?
-
1 ReplyAnd it needs a nerf in pvp
-
A reader captan can eat the bullets with his shield so giant YES
-
5 RepliesDude the golden gun and blade dancer need a nerf not a buff warlocks and titans get destroyed because hunters can Rome around the map and still get kills when the nova bomb and the ground smash are gone if you miss. And with sunslinger it is meant to be a support class and are supposed to revive themselves so there team can do well
-
2 RepliesActually two hunters running portal make the praetorian on hard a little bitch. It's one of the better supers to be bringing through the portal.

Edited by Nickel7Dime: 10/19/2014 7:01:49 PMIts a pretty simple fix, let the golden gun do criticles, what is the point of the more accurate perk if shooting them in the toe does the same damage as shooting them in the head. The golden gun could be a unique class that could actually do damage to bosses. At the moment you are better off using a sniper rifle on bosses and using primaries or heavies to clear out large groups, the golden gun helps to take out maybe one stronger common enemy. This change would also not affect it in PvP, because it is an instant kill in there anyways, so it becomes more useful where it needs to be and doesnt become of powered in any other area

Of my 3 characters in PVE, hunter super is easily the weakest. My Titan can one shot entire groups of enemies even in harder strikes, same with my warlock with nova bomb. With hunter I pop my golden gun and sometimes takes at least 2 shots to take down a high level yellow health bar enemy.
-
Edited by WulfBreaker: 10/19/2014 6:55:57 PMRegarding the raid it one shots the oracles. I can usually 2 shot most of the other regular enemies. So in that aspect its fine. But I would have to say that it is very underpowered and needs a buff towards the bosses. My helmet which gives me 4 shots does almost no damage compared to my buddies warlock which takes a quarter of the health. Also crits would be nice.
-
Edited by ShinyElbowGrease: 10/19/2014 6:41:27 PMI think it works pretty good for the raid. Works well on oracles and it's not awful on pretorians when opening the vault. Gets you out of the suppression shield pretty fast also. Kills supplicants pretty easy too. It's more situational though just need to know when to use it. But completely useless on Atheon, and every other boss in the game
-
Yes, yes it does There isn't even a point in using it in the raid it does no damage compared to my sniper

12 RepliesEdited by Uncha1n3dSky: 10/19/2014 4:34:53 AMHow bout quit asking for changes in game content... How about voice out NETWORK ISSUE... Buff golden gun in PvE, ive seen a hunter doing 6k damage x 4 to atheon... My novabomb lance is 6.5k, if it hits... Have you seen a titan Doing FOH on a boss? Seriously... There is something wrong with all you gamers nowadays... THIS IS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU WHO THINKS THEY NEED A NERF... "Im not happy with this, i should complain and ask for i want, then get everybodies attention so the compny will agree to my own selfishness"

1 ReplyAs someone mentioned below Golden gun should do critical damage or why else would it be aimed? I say Buff damage, make it insta-kill for any non-boss weak against solar damage or something and double the damage on critical shots or something.
-
I think it should be on a timer not only having 3 shots 4 with the exotic helm
-
1 ReplyI don't think it scales based on player level so a level 10 golden gun does the same as a 30 golden gun in PVE. I think this is the fix it needs ( assuming I'm right about the scaling)
