The hunter knives crutch needs to go, for real! Been playing since beginning of D1 with my family and we are very close to just leave this game.

9 RespuestasEditado por Griever: 9/6/2025 10:40:24 PMIf you have been around that long, then you should remember that knives were basically useless in D1. No OHK, no crowd control, could only be spammed if you got head shot kills with them. Knives didn't really start becoming useful even in D2 until Weighted Knife was buffed to be a OHK to the head. But sure, let's nerf the "crutch". Just as soon as titans lose their OHK crutches and Storms Keep, warlocks lose lightning surge, and the player displacement on abilities like Shiver Strike and warlock void melee is nerfed into oblivion. Weighted Knife really only sees use because of the hidden tracking on the second bounce of Athrys. Nerf the OHK from Athrys and there'd be no reason to build up the buff in pvp, nerf the tracking and no one goes for corner shots with it. If there's no tracking, then the buff should be stronger to compensate and vice versa. Lightweight knives are only seeing use because of the new hand cannon archetype combined with Galanor for faster super or Assassin's Cowl for health/ invis. No one uses Fan of Knives even after they reworked the exotic that was practically made for it (Ophidia Spathe). And Proximity Knife is niche at best in pvp, probably everyone using it in pvp is combining it with a Tripmine build instead of Caliban. I'm failing to see how the knives are crutches when they're only enabled by other weapons/ armor. If item A is only strong because of items B and C, you don't nerf A, you nerf the cause of the problem.

As a Hunter main i totally agree. To be honest they need to remove tracking on everything. Just learn to aim.
-
Couldn't agree more. I feel like I'm playing COD with these infinite range, insta-kill throwing knives. Bungie either does not play their own game, at all, or they are making the changes they want for their playstyle so they can feel powerful while they keep the rest of us at a low power delta feeling like ants vs giants.

3 RespuestasYeah. That's the real issue with the game right now. Not the abysmal grind, lack of meaningful content, no updates to crucible, the gutting of previous content, lack of rewards, constant nerfing of anything that remotely makes the grind bearable, most updates being little more than eververse refreshes, every vendor being worthless, no meaningful new loot, gambit being sidelined, and the overall story being the terrible. No, the issue is throwing knives. Right.

4 RespuestasThe most oppressive cheese ever.

3 RespuestasHonestly it’s not that crazy if you actually played with it. The combo with the spread shot HC is a bit too good but otherwise, I guarantee you won’t be winning trials just by spamming your knife.

4 RespuestasHunters have ANOTHER dominant PVP meta?!! Color me shocked.

10 RespuestasI think the main problem isn't the knives. I believe it's the exotic hands (something arthritis, haha), but yea, that thing makes the knife bounce 2 or 3 times. I used it after I saw the normal hunter nerf threads on here. And the knife itself isn't deadly or requires a bit more skill. But the second you slap those exotic arms, it's a whole new knife, lol. I just have to throw it within the general player area, and it'll bounce for me 2 to 3 times to chase that player. It's like a homing device.

Please leave

Sure, we totally believe you.

So leave you dumb titan main

49 RespuestasWhy does everyone blame the ability itself and not the EXOTIC that is directly buffing that ability? Throwing knife is just okay on its own. It only becomes a problem with the exotic.

1 RespuestaEditado por Shotokan: 9/6/2025 12:13:23 PMUnfortunately Hunters (like the moon) are made of cheese. They have so many abilities, which do you nerf next? I say leave their abilities and buff Titans 😁 No more losing melee energy when wiffing shoulder charges would be a good start 👊🏻

Editado por TheLastBlackKnight: 9/6/2025 4:54:17 PMYeah it’s insane that hunters get essentially an unlimited 1 hit kill from any range tracking ability. Anyone who uses it i assume is dog -blam!- at PvP. That being said you are a fusion rifle titan so im struggling to feel pity for you
-
16 RespuestasAs a filthy spread shot hand cannon knife abusing hunter myslef, I 100% agree, that garbage is so cheese. Also get rid of these bs jolt shot titan barricades. And, while you're at it, make it so there's no way to one shot someone with an ability that isn't a super.

18 RespuestasEditado por Sky_hawk: 9/6/2025 3:15:43 AMHunter call that a skill gap 🎪🎪🎪 Whereas in reality… throwing knives is the EASIEST and yet by far the most DEADLIEST spamming ability currently in the game 👉 low risk, high reward Too bad that Titans & Warlocks don’t have an ability they could spam all game long… while getting very easy kills without firing a single bullet… Here is a proposal BUNGO… give titans or warlocks FARTING ability 😂😂😂 an ability to release a radioactive toxic gas cloud that would kill any opposing guardian within 50 meters from the a-n-u-s that released that cloud 😂😂😂 What an idiotic proposal 🎪🎪🎪 and yet perfectly fitting to the current state of PVP in this game… xD

8 RespuestasDon’t let the hunters see this they’ll post a whole gaming journal on why you’re wrong #hunter victim mentality
-
2 RespuestasThey are nerfing them. Doesn’t seem to be much of a problem this weekend though tbh.
-
2 Respuestas[quote]Topic body[/quote] Or at least make the cooldown way longer, this is just stupid. All I see is hunters on solar with knives in trials.
-
-throwing knives-> cooldown -getting invis-> cooldown -graviton->perk activation by kills - shotgun pistols-> must be special -tempest strike/boltcharge -> less damage This is the only way to bring fun and balance in pvp back
-
Bolt charge gets nerfed first! 😂

1 RespuestaI miss when hunter knives required a little bit of skill and they weren't everywhere. They never should have been buffed. Honestly, throwing knives should be for pve or require actual skill to hit a headshot for a OHK. They definitely shouldn't be spamable either.
-
Almost every trials game has been 3 hunters with the spread shot HC + throwing knife and gravitons + lag
