Are Stompees…
… really the only good Hunter exotic?
I’m a Titan main and I’m curious. Most of the sweats I play against have this on, and some of my Hunter friends say that the rest of the exotics are 🗑 or 🧀.
Is this true?
With me always being on the receiving end of them I’m personally glad that they’re getting nerfed. They are ridiculously hard to compete against, either aggressively or passively. I know part of it is a skill thing, but I think that they currently give Hunters a much higher skill ceiling compared to the other classes.

2 通の返信Not really. Stompees are mostly used due to the speed and jump boost it gives, which makes movement seem so much smoother in my opinion. However I have used or seen several good Hunter exotics that grant useful buffs, like Ophidia Spathe, Raiden Flux, Raijus Harness, Mask of Bakris, Frostees, Dragon's Shadow, Wormhusk...... even Lucky Pants and Gemini Jesters. The rest are either so-so or good, but situational, if complete meh, but what class doesn't have meh exotics?

Most others require a specific build/play style to have fun w. A fav of mine is Arthrys Embrace, but Young Ahamkara Spine is a lot of fun too. Dragons shadow is great(I prefer over stompeez). Lucky pants are fun w last word, lean in to the old Western feel. Khepri's sting is kinda fun, w the true sight, but close range is hard bc you'll prob be dead from a shotgun before you get the melee off. I'd love for mechaneer's to be great, but half it's kit relies on being critical. Lucky raspberry means a lot of fun w arcbolt grenades. Just some other exotics to run aside from stompeez, bc I find more fun in leaning into the play style of the exotics rather than unbinding everything but my w key and only having shotguns in my inventory lol

2 通の返信What you should really do is run a pulse (preferably Insidious or Vigilance Wing) with bottom tree gun slinger and Athrys's Embrace. Throwing knife ricochets around corners are incredibly satisfying.

It’s because that’s all people run and when they do switch, they notice the difference a lot more. It’s a bit like when I run Transversives constantly for a while and then switch to say, Ophidians, you notice the lack of speed and extra slide distance quite significantly but then after a while you adjust to it. Plenty of decent hunter exotics out there, people just need to use them more often so they don’t miss the benefits of stompees so much. -
Mega Kranusにより編集済み: 4/27/2022 8:42:55 PMThey are overused because strangely enough hunters are the slowest class in the game. Warlocks can jump-hack and use icarus dash, titans are basically space marines that can move across the map in seconds, and hunters... jump really high. They aren't mandatory, but give such a huge blanket advantage that it can be hard to justify taking them off for anything else. Bakris and Wormhusk come to mind, and liars handshake memes are generally what I use when I'm not running stompees. But that's about it. Imagine taking off dunes and moving 30% slower, or trying to punch without synthoceps, that's what it feels like to take off stompees

No Hunters have plenty of good exotics which you’ll find out soon enough and you’ll probably end up looking back to the Stompees era with fond memories. I honestly don’t get the hate for Stompees? I’ve never died to a Hunter because they were wearing them.

Not really. They're probably the most generically useful, and the speed boost allows you to keep up with the default kits of the other two classes Problem is that most of the other good Hunter Exotics expect you to spec hard into a gimmick, and every gimmick isn't going to appeal to every player

60% of hunter exotics are cheesy or can be cheesy if used correctly, 10% of them are garbage and 20% of them are more pve. The last 10% of exotics aren't broken or cheesy but aren't used because they aren't that great. Next season some of the exotics we haven't seen might be meta. Especially with sidearms.
-
They’re far from the only good one, but it’s just good for standard gameplay, giving you a speed boost, slide boost, etc. whereas many of the other Hunter Exotics are more situational. It’s the sweat Exotic, basically.

2 通の返信No its not the only good hunter exotic, hunters have probably more variety than any other class. They just gotta build into it compared to other classes. Frostees, that dragon chest piece I always forget the name of, the gloves that can hold bow charge indefinitely, the gloves that improve the crap out of tripmines, the jesters, the graviton invisibility helmet, the bakris, etc. all those exotics are top tier, the thing is, stompees was just on a tier all on its own granting mobility to the point hits wouldn’t even register due to the hit box moving way faster than the model. I mean stompees are still gonna be meta, losing in air accuracy only means losing aim assist lol. Its still gonna do what it does only better if hunters learn to slide more instead of bunny jumping all over the map.
