Golden gun lasts too long tone it down in a hot fix
-
How about no. The Golden gun doesn't even last as long as Titans and Warlocks supers. Stop complaining over nothing cus you got killed once by golden gun.

The base duration of the Super is extremely short, far shorter than every other roaming Super in the game. It also has noticeable damage falloff and generally requires two shots to down another Super while having no DR to speak of. What you're experiencing is the Guardian Games system of crests giving you a chunk of Super when picked up. If you have 100 points in your Super stat, you get a large chunk of energy so they're able to get that Super up and running more frequently and then gun down your oblivious allies that insist on trying to challenge it head-on without the gunskill to do so. This lets them chain those kills and overtake the game, picking up those crests once the Super ends to quickly do it again.

In 6v6 modes, it is problematic due to kill chaining on the 6-shot goldy. Not really an issue in 3v3. Should the game be balanced around 6v6 or 3v3?

Its a glass canon either ohk them, or hide. If a golden gun cant get kills quickly it runs out faster than every other supers. And even if he does get kills on your mate, just dont show up, a solar hunter has zero mobility, by the time he reaches you, his GG will be over. If you are in the open when a golden gun is around tough...yeah deserved lol

1 ReplyWhen I (try to) use GG on my H, usually, everyone scarpers; if I’m lucky, I might get 1x or 2x hits…though it usually runs out pdq! In Supremacy ggs, I was constantly amazed, and in awe, of the incredible marksmanship displayed, the extended length that golden gun was active, and the number of ohk shots fired. At times, it felt like the weilder could see through walls / rocks, and was able to zap me across the map, from impossible angles, whilst spinning and jinking midair, and they never missed! How could they see me as I coincidentally just emerged from behind cover, from across the map, and then zap several other hard-to-spot players at all points of the compass? And when not using golden gun, these same players moved at incredible speeds with unheard of accuracy and marksmanship, nonstop invisible, and in seemingly perfect coordination like an esports ninja crew?! This old tortoise can hardly spot players as it is - in normal mode…maybe I’m just too old…or maybe there are other mysterious forces at play? That is all. Play Fair! Play Nice! Don’t Quit! 👈 Ease Springs! 🖖👻 MTFBWY

It only refreshes when you get a kill, and even then, you would be lucky to get 3 or 4 kills, that is if you get the drop on them first, and they don't gun you down, otherwise it's pretty short lasting, on aveage I manage to get 1 or 2 kills with it On the other hand, warlocks and titans can very easily, and I have witnessed this many times, get a 5x kill streak from their supers, and everyone would end up dead I will admit, when I hear that golden gun going off, I run away scared 😂, but atleast I can run away, unlike from say arc titan or arc warlock supers, or something like nova warp, you ain't runnin' 😆

Pretty sure it's the shortest super at base, only extending it's duration on kills with Deadshot (it doesn't get much energy) and hits with marksman. You're probably just unlucky like everyone and coming in view when they have 1 shot or 0.5 seconds left.

Maybe in PVP but not in PVE
