Hi there. I've played Destiny since around crotas end pretty religiously. I've completed every activity the game has to offer both year one as well as two. I'm banked in around 3k hours in the game and have hit the top 1% in iron banner according to DestinyTracker. Now that I've established some credentials, here's the meat and potatoes.
TLDR: Pay attention when you kill a warlock and realize that firebolt burn takes time to kill.
I have been maining a sunsinger since I started the game. I really don't see the sudden obsession with them all of a sudden. Nothing has been changed about them with the exception of the nerf to the melee range and the bolt grenade nerf affected them.
So why the sudden hate? Personally I use double sticky grenades more than firebolts and touch of flame both inside and out of trials. I do run Viking funeral regardless though due to the extra burn on the scorch melee. Now the most popular complaint I see is the combination of fireborn and the burn firebolts. People say you only have to damage your enemy slightly to cause them to die to the burn and since you can spam the grenades while in radiance, this is unfair. What I never see anyone acknowledge is the fact that radiance is indeed a super. Please explain to me which super you have a chance of living through once a competent player has decided to use it on you? Once more, the burn grenade plus shot takes time to happen. Every single other super is an instant kill when used with the exception of the defender. Think about that. Any substance you might think you have against radiance must take that into consideration.
Now fireborn, outside of trials or other revive based gametypes is more or less useless. Sure it can allow you a revenge kill and maybe plus one or two more, but that isn't going to make or break your game of clash. Perhaps rather than complaining about that guy who self resurrected, you should first try to pay attention to the fact that you killed a warlock and take into consideration the possibility that he had his super.
But, Turreted, how would I know he's a sunsinger? Check before the game. There's many things a lot of you complainers are probably failing to do. Which is realize and respect the players in your match. Perhaps maybe the reason you're not winning as much as you THINK you should be isn't because of the game, but maybe your ignorance to certain edges that you are depriving yourself of.

7 RespuestasA warlock and titan were walking around the moon one day. Titan: "Arggh, my Hammers! They're so heavy! I used to be so good with them, you know." Warlock: "Yes, I know. Until the Huntards nerfed yo-" Titan: "SHHH, they might hear you! One little mention of them will get you nerfed, trust me!" Warlock: "Alright, alright." They keep walking, but soon after they stop in front of a cavern. Warlock: "I just don't understand. They want my firebolt grenades nerfed now. If [b][i]he who must not be named[/i][/b] nerfs me, I swear." Titan: "Wait." The Titan and warlock hear whispering of the word "nerf" coming from the cavern. The Warlock uses her angel of light to look down. What she sees makes her scream in panic. Titan: "What?! What is it?" Warlock: "We've woken the Huntards! There's too many of them! RUN!" The Huntards are screeching the word "nerf" now. Titan: "I feel...strange." Warlock:"No, not now!" The Titan falls over, barely mobile. Warlock: "What's wrong?" Titan: "Feel...so..burned out.." The Huntards surround the warlock and the Titan. Huntards: "Nerf STORMCALLER! Nerf Sunsinger! TOO OP! NERF NERF NERF!!" All of a sudden, a hole comes from the ground. It's no other than [b][i]Deej, the nerfing King.[/i][/b] Deej: Hello, my fellow Huntards! Huntards in Sync: "Hello, Deej" Deej: "Well well well, it seems as if our warlocks here have become dominant! Let me give her a small tuning" Deej lifts her up and the warlock grimaces. Warlock: "No..please..." She feels herself weakening, losing her power among the storm. Losing her flames. Everything. Titan: "NO! Not this time!" The Titan flies into the sky and casts his Fist of Havoc. He launches all the Huntards and Deej into the air, and sends them out into the cavern. Warlock: "Th..thank you.." Titan: "eh... Don't menti-" Huntard: "neeeerfff!!" The Titan shoulder charges the final Huntard. Warlock: "you really enjoy that, don't you?"
