Yup. Bungie is aware of this for almost 3 years now. So expect it to be fixed..... never.

Top tree tether lasts WAY longer than any other tether. It's a fire- and-forget super. Pick a smart, strategic spot, shoot your tether there, then either leave and wait for it to trigger on a surprised enemy, or bait enemies into chasing you then lead them into it. "There is literally no other way to use tether other than shooting it at a super or where a super will come from" is exactly the kind of limited mentality that I'd expect from a brand new player or a really bad hunter that can't see just how versatile ALL their abilities are.

You know everyone can see you never played on your hunter right? You are an obvious troll. Tether lasts 20 seconds and is clearly visable on the map and it litterally shows where it is because of a wave effect around it...even through walls. Only total.idiots fall for a tether...you can not hide it.

I have 2 friends who have mained Hunter since launch, and one who spent a solid 3 months playing it, and all 3 use top tree tether in the ways I've described. All 3 have had tons of success with that playstyle. I don't need to play Hunter to know an effective strategy when I see one. If you set it right, they won't see it. If you strategize around the drawbacks, they stop being problems. I'm not trolling. I'm stating facts based on two things: the insane success I've seen all 3 of my friends have playing that way, and the stupid high amounts of whining I hear from hunters that play it any other way. If everyone complains about it the way they use it, then there's something wrong with how they use it. I know 3 people who use it differently, and they NEVER complain about Tether being ineffective. So maybe it really is just that you guys are too bullheaded to be willing to try anything new.

You give people far too much credit. "It shows on radar!" So do players. But the radar only takes you so far. You still have to look around because the radar doesn't tell you height, exact distance, or whether they're standing or crouching. It gives you a basic idea of general location. And that's it. Not only that, but people don't stare at the radar 24/7. It's a balance. Look at radar, watch where you go, look at radar, watch where you go. You can't ONLY do one or the other, and that means you can still be blindsided no matter what you do. "You can see it through walls!" Not every wall. Not every time. Not if it's placed right. Do some private matches with friends. Figure out which walls you can see it through and which ones you can't, and strategize around that. Plan it out ahead of time. You can call me a troll all you want but I'm not trolling. I'm giving you solid points and you're just refusing to consider them properly. You're giving people too much credit and you refuse to consider there are ways around the drawbacks. If you can see it through walls and on the radar, and if those are as big problems as you make them out to be, how can Tether ever anchor anyone? It shouldn't be able to. But that would mean the only way to tether is in their face as they rush you, but you all say that takes way too long, and never triggers in time. If that's the case, that should never work either. So by that logic tether is 95-100% useless. Which isn't the case. It's incredibly useful, as proven to me by my 3 friends. So again: you're all just upset that you don't know how to use it, and rather accept that someone else does, you'd prefer to ignore their points and call them a troll. Just so you don't have to own up to misunderstanding top tree tether.

How does radar tell height? Crouching, yes it gives the flash (on then off then on then off) but on the first flash they could just be running away. You don't know until it's consistent: the second or third flash. It CERTAINLY doesn't tell if they're jumping. And i never said the radar didn't differentiate between super and player. I said "so do players". As in: just because it shows on radar does not mean people will pay attention enough to avoid it, nor does it mean that they will see it and react in time if they're rushing. Radar is not everything.
-
Ok see I didn't know that. And now that I do, I can put that information to use. So why don't you give me the benefit of the doubt and at least TRY the things I've said and see for yourself how it goes, rather than just instantly denying it?

I haven't played Hunter on D2, but I've got a Hunter on D1 that I use exclusively in Crucible. I've played Hunter, just not on D2, and again, I've got 2 friends that ONLY play Hunter, and one that stuck with it for a solid 3 months. I have seen how hunter plays, I've seen how they use it differently than most do, and I've seen them have success. I've also seen so many other hunters who've done nothing but -blam!- about their chosen class. But do they try titan or warlock? No. Because they know Hunter, ALL of Hunter, is good. They just want something to whine about. You're no different. You won't even consider that I might be onto something with my observations. You just say "well i tried it", but you won't consider maybe you just aren't clever enough to play it off right. You won't consider that YOU need to change. Because in the end, why should you change when your class is the least problematic in the entire game?
-
There you go again saying you did what i said, but you still refuse to think that maybe YOU'RE the problem. Maybe you did put it in a place you thought was very strategic and clever. Maybe you thought wrong. Maybe because you've done this alone for 3 years with nothing but other hunters whining just like you, maybe you never stopped to consider they're wrong too. But what do I know? I've only watched my friends totally turn the tide of a game by doing that. I've only seen my buddy pull off a full team kill with one well placed tether. But I'm just a big dumb titan, me no know hunner, ony no puch an shute ryte? Get over yourself and accept the fact that maybe you're just not smart enough to pull off a strategic tether.

I don't have a recording because it's not "amazing". It's just any other thing to me. Unless it's on one of my streams, I don't have any recording of it. And for the record, lack of video evidence doesn't equal lying. By that logic, you're lying about NOT having success with it. Besides, I wouldn't have a good recording of it anyways. I play titan, and I'm not always right there with my buddies. But I can watch the kill feed. When i see "ItzzAnbu has Am activated Shadowshot", then a full 10-15 seconds later see 3-6 people marked by tether, immediately followed by 6 kills made by ItzzAnbu, I can put two and two together and figure out what happened. And if I'm wrong, they'll let me know because I'll ask about the play and they'll tell me what happened in detail. Because unlike you I want to get better, and the first step is understanding I don't know everything.
-
Except you claim to understand everything about tether. When you dont...because you dont play hunter. Also. Its 1 opinion...you..who doesnt use hunter. Vs millions of hunters who do use it . And everyone knows who is right..because even titan and warlock mains think it needs an activation buff.
-
I never once claimed to know everything about tether. Say what you want about me and my thoughts, do what you want, but DON'T put words into my mouth. I never claimed to know everything about tether. All this time, I've shared what I do know. But I've never claimed to know everything. And it's not opinions. I have stated nothing but facts. A well executed, and well placed, tether will get you success FAR more often than wasting time shooting it at a super charging at you from 20m away. That's just a fact. I have friends who have had huge success with tether using it the way I've described. That's not an opinion, that's facts. Stop getting so caught up in YOUR opinion that you assume to know mine. All I've done is explain facts based on my experiences and those of the people close to me.

I'm not -blam!-ing trolling, you inbred shitstain. I've said MANY TIMES that I'm basing what I say off what I've SEEN other hunters do. Hell, today I played a couple crucible matches as top tree tether hunter and guess what! I never had a wasted tether, and I never died while casting or waiting for it to trigger. Just because someone says something you disagree with does NOT mean they're trolling. Stupid -blam!-er.
