I'm going to preface by saying I believe the Hunters are the most underpowered classes in the game. For those of you that are going to deny this, I am going to back up my claim with obvious data from the game and forums themselves. [u] [b]Titan[/b][/u] In my personal opinion, this class is the most broken piece of trash I've ever had to deal with in any multiplayer game ever. Literally. Ever. And I've played quite a few games ranging from casual MMO's to MOBA's. As far as a balanced class is, this isn't one of them. --[b]Defender[/b] I honestly have no problems with this particular subclass. It's a safe, well-rounded class and the only thing that really makes it difficult to deal with is its barrier melee and bubble/shotgun combo. Else-wise, relatively balanced. --[b]Striker[/b] Here's my problem with this class: It is entirely far too difficult to kill unless you can run up on him with a Shotgun(And pray to GOD he doesn't have his super) or snipe him. Now, Fist of Havoc is already pointlessly difficult to kill a Titan in and -blam!- any attempt of getting away because the radius is far too large to get out of if you are a football field that gets wrecked by this attack. Shockwave makes it that much more difficult to dodge out of if you're in front of him, and after math blocks off a massive part of the arena you're in. Aftershocks just makes it that much more of a paint to deal with. Juggernaut is a crazy ass ability that makes the Titan that much harder to kill. If he's charging and has an understanding of how to dodge, a shotgunner juggernaut will wreck your life if you can't snipe him in time. To top it off, Overload tips the balance even further. I can't tell you how many time's I've been hit as a Hunter by a Titan, with full health, just to get dropped immediately with full armor. That makes NO god damn sense. A Hunter might have the fastest melee in the game, but it doesn't really matter if I'm killed in one punch, now does it? Shoulder Charge is yet another pointless addition to the melee arsenal. Seeings as you can already wreck someone with Discharge, what would be the point of this ability? Insult to injury? Seriously. --[b]Sunbreaker[/b] Now how about that Sunbreaker? Now, a ton of people are going to have a lot to say about this (probably those of you that suck off the Titan for their OP gifts) because of the recent tiny ass nerf they did to the Sunbreaker. The difference is incredibly minuscule when compared to the balls deep anal railing they did to the Blade Dancer. It's mind boggeling that they think this would be enough to make a difference. Sure, you can snipe a Sunbreaker now if your impact is high enough... unless they're using the overshield perk where they then take two minimum shots. Then you have the Sunbreaker's melee. Yet again, normally a One-shot. To top it off, it's yet another subclass that can reset its melee cooldown. Not on kill, but on hit. I could go more into this, but I'm going to move on to the Warlocks. I have almost no problems with the Warlocks, to be honest. The only problem I have is that nearly every melee they have either resets their melee ability cooldown or gives them a shield. Aside from that, Warlocks are cool in my book. The Ram makes them hella hard to kill, but it's honestly nothing that can't be dealt with. [b]Hunter[/b] Let's move on to the most underpowered class in the game. Now a lot of you are going to disagree with me, pointlessly or bullheadedly, but the honest truth of the matter is that everything hunter is incredibly underpowered when compared to Titan or Warlock. --[b]Bladedancer[/b] Bladedancer got a pretty serious asskicking from 1.0 to 2.0 Destiny. Whereas Felwinter became a big check to the Bladedancer, the shotgun nerf(Which was much needed) made the Bladedancer kind of viable. Even with Tarentella, however, they're still laughable at best. The grenade of choice is going to be the Flux Grenade which can only kill someone if you stick it to someone, the Arcbolt does nothing worth note anymore, and Skip Grenades do barely enough to knock a shield off. In comparison to everyone else's phenomenal grenades that can take you down to the point where you're either burning or have a sliver of health left, the Arc Subclass for Hunter seems pretty shitty. Regardless of build and armor typing, a Blade Dancer will have to hit a Sunbreaker two-to-three times in order to kill him, will die every time to a Fist of Panic, will draw with a Void Walker, get screwed by a Nightstalker Bow, One shot by a golden gun, and overall reamed from every direction of every other class. To top it off, shotgun-melee will wreck a blade dancer. To top it off, there is not regenerative ability, no shields from melee, and the only thing with bonus damage is the backstab. Also, if you're going to incorporate stealth into the game to utilize backstab, actually make stealth a stealth instead of 'kinda stealthy'. --[b]Gunslinger[/b] Personally, it seems this class, all-be-it boring, is the most viable class for Trials or 3v3 crucible of any sort. It's a strong long-range class, but is incredibly outclassed by the Sunbreaker who has a plethora of hammers to sling all over the place. Where people will argue the range of a Gunslinger, a Gunslinger can't regenerate health, doesn't have armor, and is easily taken down while super'd. To top it off, the nerf to their Achlyophage makes it incredibly difficult to get off that fourth shot without wasting precious super energy that you have a very very small amount of now. With the inability to regenerate super energy while shooting your golden gun (Unless you get a kill with your knife((lol. Who uses a knife while they're shooting a golden gun))) and a lack of shots (It should honestly be raised to a minimum of four normally with a fifth shot from Achlyophage with an increase in super time), sure, it's good, but it just doesn't outperform the Titan. The throwing knife is cool and all, but unless you get a critical with burn, you won't wreck someone with it. --[b]Nightstalker[/b] I like the Nightstalker. I'll preface with that. But I only like it for PvE since it's adds a huge advantage with Orb Creation and bonus damage. As a utility class, it's absolutely perfect. HOWEVER. It's secondary perks for the arrows make it.. meh. Courage of the Pack looks like a fun perk, but when weighed against the power of orbs, the choice is obvious. For PvP, I don't see it as a very viable option. It can screw over a super from time to time, but it has a picky targeting system. I have no problem getting kills with it, but the time it takes to actually fire the arrow and the travel speed of the arrow makes it an avoidable super with a high risk of exposure when used. I can't tell you how many times I've been sniped out of my super while firing my arrow. Not all is bad in the world of the Nightstalker. The Fart Grenades (Envenomed) are an incredibly fun tool to use in PvP. They can really turn the tides with a double melee. Aside from these awesome little guys, it just doesn't feel viable in Crucible. I'm prepared for the critics and skeptics. This is all opinion (Backed up with some facts) and I personally believe, from personal experience, that Titans are broken as shit.
