Golden Gunners demand equal shots! (Destiny)

Seriously. There is no reason that one class should get 7 shots which also do splash damage and leave a dot on the ground while simultaneously regenerating health and having an overshield while the other class gets only 3 shots with none of the other bonuses.

I REALLY don't think Golden Gunners need a buff. I think SunBreakers just need a nerf. Golden Gunners are powerful enough. As the OP said, it's a viable strategy to run from a SunBreaker. I know, I've had to deal with that MANY times and it's annoying as hell. Most of the time these days if I don't pop my ultimate at the right time, which is close to multiple enemies that won't be able to mow me down, I have to chase a single guy across the map and hope that I get one kill.

Sometimes I wish I had a silent ult. But that is one of the reasons they made it so loud is because it's powerful. I really hope that if they really nerf the SunBreaker that they at least make the ult less noticeable to EVERYONE in the game.

I'm saying this in defense of Sun Breakers because I'm not that good with it. I'm sure there are Sun Breakers that are actually good and get a kill for everyone on of their hammers. There is also a misconception that Sun Breakers can use all of their abilities at once? I've heard multiple times that people think that Sun Breakers can use multiple abilities... which is not true.

There is no reason that one class should get 7 shots which also do splash damage and leave a dot on the ground while simultaneously regenerating health and having an overshield.

For example, Sun Breakers have the ability to increase their shot count to 7 and increase splash range OR They leave leave a DoT on the ground and they get overshield when standing on it.

Yes, Sun Breakers need a nerf, but they can't use all of their abilities at once even if it seems like they are.
