I've been enlightened.

I have two friends that play pretty religiously and we used to get into arguments over hunter vs warlock (myself and one friend started with warlock, the other a hunter - though on Xbox while we were PS4)... Radiance was everything and seeing every raid clamor for warlocks and ostracize hunters seemed to back it up. But when I got around to making my 3rd alt, I finally got to experience the hunter. Their supers were underpowered in PvE and there was no extra shielding. The jumping was funny and I had difficulty reaching anything without triple jump. It was exactly what I thought it would be. Then I experienced invisibility. Vanish, Shadowjack, Stalker. I've never had such an easy time with the nightfall. Collecting ammo, scouting and eliminating snipers, reviving my Warlock friend who was trying to build up yet another extra life... A new found respect for the hunter class... Now I just need to figure out how to tell those thick-skulled titans to stop putting their damn bubbles in my LOS.

    I like all 3 of my toons and the Hunter does get shafted a bit [b]in PVE.[/b] Invisiblility may be the second best ability behind Warlock self-res, but the golden gun is horribad against bosses and their armour seems weak compared to the others. Hunters rock the Crucible and I hate the bladedancer so much I have to use the golden gun with my Hunter or I feel like a big hypocrite. If you want to see the difference in how easy it is to kill a Hunter, go the Exclusion Zone glimmer farm with a Titan (set difficulty to hard) and then do it with a Hunter. Let the last couple of Cabal finish you off without doing anything. Often my Titan regens its health while the two turtles are blasting away and when they shield bash him he flies across the map and pops back up. My poor Hunter gets shield blasted into orbit and dies instantly. All that being said, I was considering what toon to delete of my 3 because the grind has become daunting (levelling up 3 new sets of armour at once is a pain). Then Xur lotto drops Knucklehead, Achylophage and Arachnid exotic helmets on me and it makes the thought of cutting her seem wasteful. Guess the grinding shall continue...but now I will be using the Hunter more in the Crucible....
