(Posted this in another thread, but figured I'd make it it's own topic)
The problem with Sunbreakers and why they appear to be so overpowered is everyone running from them.
[b]Of course it's OP when your back is to it. [/b]
Here's how to beat Sunbreaker when playing with a team (easier with fireteam, but totally doable with randoms, if they don't get scared and run)
1. Hear Sunbreaker
2. DON'T RUN
3. Space yourselves out a bit (you should be doing this anyway)
4. FOCUS FIRE (sniper rifles are great for this, but primaries work too)
5. Win
Pay close attention to #2 and #4, they are in caps because they are the most important!
[i]Also, for those who will no doubt say I don't have the experience, this is my new alt character, I've been here since the alpha. [/i]

2 RisposteOne shot from the op vacancy fusion rifle and they are dead Check my Titan
-
oh my god you can kill a sunbreaker by shooting it?! how has no one else in the world thought of such a brilliant idea?!
-
4 RisposteLol no I run and shade step the f out of there
-
3 RisposteTo the people afraid of sunbreakers, you know what stops a sunbreaker? A nova bomb to the g-ddamn face, that's what. Most satisfying kill I've gotten in Crucible yet.
-
1 RispondiPeople like you are the reason that Sunbreakers still get kills. It's honestly not that great of a subclass, but people seem to think they can fight him without a super of their own. The amount of kills people feed Sunbreakers is actually hilarious.
-
the man who wrote those instructions must be the smartest PVP player ever!!!!! [spoiler]not joking im dead serious about it[/spoiler]
-
No run.
-
Nope, can't help it, sorry.
-
4 RisposteOr better yet, just stick a fusion grenade on him.
-
You forgot: stay away from floors/walls as most sunbreakers can't aim for crap.
-
I prefer evading a titan in a super, sure you can kill one, but feeding a titan kills is much worse for the team overall, shadestep behind cover or a well placed tether is pretty effective
-
Why should I risk it?
-
2 Risposteyou shouldn't have to plan for HoS like you would Oryx...-blam!- you....I just jump off the map and laugh....
-
You know, it's a natural reaction for you to turn around, start cursing at the top of your lungs, and get the hell outa there when you here the hammer or electricity generate...
-
Why go to all the trouble when you can just shoot 3 rockets at him and a Nova Bomb and kill him by yourself....
-
Another super works pretty good too.
-
Or you wait in between hammers and Jump. It throws off the tracking. Same for when you are getting shot at.
-
3 RisposteYou're forgetting he has teammates too
-
Activates Super [spoiler]Here comes Daddy![/spoiler]

1 RispondiI've figured out that using Invective is actually pretty handy against Titans using Hammers. It takes them out pretty quick.
-
Lure Sunbreaker Crouch inside nearest doorway Wait until Sunbreaker walks through Unload 4 invective shells into Sunbreakers face
-
If the hammer is missing and not regenerating yeah
-
Nice IB chest btw!
-
Yes and no. If you can't kill a sunbreaker with 3 ppl because he manages to destroy a teammate and heal, thn the others can take tht little distraction to run. If 3 ppl cant down one thn 2 ppl makes less sense. Just run. Might have a better chance of surviving
-
Good point but only in iron banner or trials do teams have the sniping skill and team co-ordination to do so
-
SCATTER!!!
