I will be so happy (Destiny)

I would be perfectly okay if GGunners could one shot SunBreakers. But only if they only got one shot. Because then they would become just like FistOfPanic.

See, but that's the issue, the only supers that right now can reliably survive a Golden Gun shot are the two that happen all at once (Fist of Havoc and Nova Bomb) and then for some reason Sunbreakers. They are the ONLY roaming Super that can regularly survive a Golden Gun shot. With the average number of kills being significantly higher than Fist of Havoc or Nova Bomb, does that not indicate an imbalance?

What they need to do is have Hammers have fall off damage at range and have Golden Guns have fall off at closer range. Because I'm still a firm believer that if you engage a SB in close combat, you should lose unless you are really skilled or lucky.

Hammers should be a one hit kill on body but a harder two hit kill for close proximity to body, Golden guns shouldn't necessarily (for example on other close range supers) be a one hit kill on body.

Why? Because it's a Golden GUN, it's a freaking sniper IMO. I've been sniped so many times byGGunners. I've never been sniped by a SunBreaker. What I'm trying to say is, even supers have their environment. In the video, if you forget the whole one hit kill thing and all that. In my mind, you should lose to a titan in that environment. You are up close to a Titan ultimate when he already had it on and you popped yours after you saw him. If we are talking about close quarters, Titans should win. It should be no different than taking a scout rifle against a AR in close proximity. The AR should always have the advantage.

Again, this is all my idea of how I think supers should work when it comes to different ranges. If we were talking about an open map at medium range, a SunBreaker would be toast against a GGunner.

GG is not a sniper. It's range is roughly that of Hawkmoon. You can spec into a longer range, but at the expense of two other, very worthwhile perks. And as long as GG doesn't give you damage resistance, it needs to be a one hit kill on body because otherwise you will die before you have time to fire the second shot. Also, how many supers do you know that are limited to 3 kills max? Only one, and it's golden gun. Anyone who takes 2 shots to die to GG has saved someone else's life and should feel pretty damn good about that. If I jump in front of the nova bomb that's flying at my buddy, I don't get to save his life - we both still die.
