I remember when no one wanted a Hunter in their VOG. People said Hunters sucked and we're the worst class in the game. As I mashed through the vex in that raid and destroyed Oracles with my golden gun I never understood the hate, because I knew I'd chosen the right class. While people needed a second life or a Titan bubble to get through a hard VOG as a 29, I relied on pure gun skill and the ability to stay alive. Even now some people say that Gunslinger is useless for PVE. Why? Because you have to be calculated when using your super and can't just mindlessly throw it at adds? I am an expert with my Gunslinger and am never at a disadvantage in any PVE activity. Then came Crotas End, a raid in which the Hunters abilities where unrivaled, and everthing changed. "Just let the Hunter run the abyss and invite us at the end" "Need a 32 hunter to run the sword" This is what the people on LFG would say, the same people who didn't want my 29 Hunter in their VOG. Then POE came and again Hunters were in high demand. No subclass handled the mines like a Bladedancer, and who was there to revive you when your bubble failed you, or you didn't have that second life to fall back on? A Bladedancer. Then there is PVP. I don't even have to talk about this because Hunters dominate the Crucible, this is fact. Hunters always had respect here. Now everyone runs a Hunter. In fact I believe it is the most used class or at least equal with the Warlock. I see these baby Hunters running around like they know, and I chuckle to myself. Because I was a Hunter before it was cool. A Hunter since day one. Prepare for the Nightstalker Era. Edit: So much positivity here, it's great. There are always a few who choose to take offense and say negative things. I don't mean to offend anyone and have not posted this to "gloat" as some have said. This is just to point out how wrong everyone was about Hunters. Only those day one Hunters who experienced the hate will understand. Edit: Wow guys I love the feel in this virtual room and woke up to a ridiculous amount of responses. It took me all morning to reply to everyone, but if you took the time to leave positive energy in here I'm gonna make sure I give you some back. I'm at work now so my replies will slow, however, I will get back to each and every one of you. Have a good day people.
