Hunters are FAR too popular to be as powerful as they are
Every single pvp match in 6v6 is [i]at least[/i] 3 hunters.
Golden gun: refunding guaranteed 1 shot against anyone with the 6 shooter.
Blade barrage: [i]guaranteed[/i] kill if the user is not brain dead
Invisibility:.....it's Invisibility.
Arc staff: can dodge and reflect [i]anything[/i]
Considering the class population, it's too much. It's a plague. There are more [i]nightstalkers alone[/i] than there are WARLOCKS

Erm that's why they are popular. They have the very best of everything. The most powerful stasis in the game and the only one that freezes and kills simultaneously by following you all around a map. Void quiver is getting a buff. Going invisible on both vision and radar at the sametime. Golden gun with or without helmet is powerful. New arc ability that's quite powerful. And mobility that's op compared to any other stat on any other gaudian.

1 ReplyPeople will always gravitate to the most broken and easiest to use subclasses. Hunter is the very definition of “easy to use” and “over-tuned”. However, I do not wish to see the Hunter nerfed. I just wish the other subclasses (especially Warlocks) were brought in line.

the only thing hunter have is op is the invis spam nothing more ,arc titans are a lot more OP
-
Play a hunter then and F off... I play all 3 and none of them are overpowered.

Invisibility is fine. Hit the exotics that buff it. They're the problem. Also if your point is hunters should be generally less good because too many people like them, you have a serious flaw in logic, but oh well. Balance should always be the goal and even if we had perfect balance, hunters would still be the most played as they always have been and shouldn't be worse just because of that.

1 ReplyHunters don’t like it when you call them out, so this post will get buried. Yes their population is way out of band and yes their potency is way too high. People cope and say titans are better, but on average I tend to see team compositions of either 50/50 titans to hunters or 2-4 titans to hunters. Yes they’re class is broken. No they won’t be changed. Bungie doesn’t want to upset their largest paypigs.

7 RepliesSure hunter is good. But its by far the weakest of the 3 in pvp.

2 RepliesA 6V6 has 12 total players. There is a total of 3 classes. Just by the laws of probability you'd get atleast 3 hunters. I have had plenty of matchs with no hunters. You can also say the same for supers like nova bomb, and hammers. I mean tracking nova is almost a guaranteed kill and will lock on to targets even if you cast it without aiming at someone, plus it has such a large hit box you can't shoot the caster. Hammers +sunspots lasts forever, heals on kills, has range + aoe explosions. Invisibility us annoying but overshield literally effects ttk and give a much bigger advantage.

11 RepliesEdited by A_mo: 11/28/2022 3:02:44 AMArc staff should be able to deflect thundercrash. Other than that hunters are probably at some of the "weakest" they've ever been relative to the other two classes although they certainly aren't weak. You said it yourself its just that a lot of people use them and arc titan easily has the biggest bag of tricks this season. If hunters had that many different options on one subclass the front page of this site would be filled with complaints. Invis is problematic but with the movement changes (that included more than just ae and sliding) hunters need something. Been seeing more gemini jesters lately and that can be every bit as annoying to deal with as invis (to me its probably a little bit worse tbh) because it makes it so the hunters' teammates can get the jump on you too. So enjoy your radar or partial radar now since invis is probably going to get nerfed.

1 Reply1.Usage doesn't equal power 2. Resistance on strider dodge was basically removed in PvP 3. Only projectile can be deflected on impact. Use aoes 4. The popular use of warlock was game breaking. With nerfs in that aspect, that is what I assume is the reason behind no surge in popularity. I'm sure there are more points to jot down but I'm just playing the game not sniffing bungos feet for reasons to nerf hunters. I suggest taking a break from destiny since it sounds like it's not your thing

7 Replies6 shooter needs a nerf.. duration of invis needs nerf… Other than that hunter are just squishy hopping ae crying punks
-
3 RepliesIt’s popular [i]because[/i] it’s such a strong class. If Warlocks were as potent in PvP the title of this post would just read different, not the sentiment.

1 ReplyBungie is nerfing Blade Barrage, Golden Gun and Invisibility with the next update. Arcstaff is underused. It doesn't need a nerf. Your complaint about Blade Barrage is silly. Nova Bomb and Thundercrash also guarantee a kill. The only Hunter subclass that is overused is Void Hunter (and arguably Solar Hunter, but it's not nearly as big a problem).
-
6 RepliesHunters can be nasty in the Crucible, but I think Titans are a beast. If you play Titan in dad mode, you'll definitely dominate.
-
Agreed
-
You know if they get any nerf they will cry and -blam!- as if their class is 100% ruined and needs to be buffed. They enjoy being the crutch of pvp too much

Then why doesn’t anyone make a hunter and play on a hunter? Destiny 1 self res warlocks in trials was so OP that I made a warlock and went flawless that way. If it’s OP, join the group. Same thing to as why everyone uses the same guns in PvP. I don’t care for nerfs but the fact people call for nerfs every week or every update is just annoying at this point.

Hunters are the best and most fun playstyle imo. A lot of close combat and agility stuff. They are also the most versatile when it comes to creating builds and have the best/most fun exotics. I can easily create 6 different builds on my arcstrider, gunslinger and nightstalker each that have a place in either pvp or pve endgame that fit my playstyle. All the other classes simply dont have that many great options and are therefore lesser.

1 ReplyCaveat on the GG: I've only seen the ammo return after the ignition in both PvP and PvE, with exception for the final round. Once that counter goes from 1 to 0, GG is done. I can't really say much, being a Hunter main myself, and not having on the game for past 2 weeks or so (consistent internet instability). Listening for audio cues, watching entrances, and positioning are what I tend to focus on.

2 Repliesim waiting for when the next season's 20 something exotic reworks arrive, and hopefully gyrfalcon and khepris get nerfed. then hunters are gonna cry about ophidians nerf
-
3 RepliesWhy do so many who want to comment on PvP call for nerfing classes rather than bringing everyone up? Crabs in a bucket mentality.
-
LMFAO. This community is out of touch and their suggestions are more dangerous than the changes that have been implemented these last few months.

4 Replies[quote]Every single pvp match in 6v6 is [i]at least[/i] 3 hunters. [/quote] So 25% of the population??
