Are Hunters really over powered in pvp?
The short answer is no, that would be the Titans. On the rare occasions I play PvP, I do use my Hunter, but only for the same reason I use it mainly in pve, because its jump system is better than the other two, but the most important reason is because Hunters always look cooler

2 RepliesAs I understand it, the situation has always just been a massive case of confirmation bias. Three observations: 1. Hunter is the most popular class, thus has the biggest representation. 2. Hunter mobility and abilities combine to make them excel at disengagement and ambushing in enclosed PvP environments. 3. Anything that kills players with a minimal ability to defend or counter is seen as overpowered and/or cheap. I haven’t touched PvP since before the Edge of Hate, but since Beyond Light there was always controversy with Hunters and certain subclasses. Data may not bear it out, but if you’re always [i][b]feeling like[/b][/i] you’re dying almost instantly in Crucible, and it’s usually to a Hunter ability or weapon/mobility combo, you’re going to resent the Hunter class.

Check which class is used most in Trials. Where the most effective weapons, subclass perks etc (meta) is usually found. It’s pretty much always hunter. Whether it’s because Hunters are meta or just popular who knows… I’m erring towards the Hunter kit being more pvp orientated though 😁 But who cares at this point 🤣

It's just our cloaks that are overpowered. That's why Saladin wears one.

It's all -blam!-. The biggest poo-poo is connection qualities and cheaters. Then stuff like sweats, sweating their sweaty hineys off in casual games...
