Some ground rules:

-Keep it civil, people. This is just a game.

All right, commence the trash talk and bring your best game. Especially you team chaos, since I'm not expecting you to have any tonight.

Yeah, I think we're going to have to wait and see though. The overall Destiny community is freaking out over these changes, but honestly I think the changes on the weapons we like won't be as big as we imagine in our heads, good balance changes don't feel big.

Yeah, it's not that big of a change, even keeping in mind that it's going to be slightly higher than 2.5% for the top classes, and it's going to be even less for the lower ones. I doubt anyone's going to notice at all if they're not actually counting the numbers.

I'm pretty sure it was me -- I very stupidly popped my Bladedancer super when I was already half dead - not once, but twice - and both times I was deservedly assassinated before even getting a single swing in.

I do this ALL the time. I LOVE bladedancing when it works, but when it fizzles before it starts? It feels like the worst super ever.

If a defender titan is almost dead, punch someone quick and you get shields or throw down a bubble. A striker? Hulk smash them, and then a shoulder charge a rocket just for the giggles. Sunsinger? Punch someone for health or sunsing for resistance. Voidwalker? Using your super will clear the room while making you invulnerable to rockets. Gunslingers are in a similar boat as the bladedancer. Hunters just can't use their super as a get out of jail free card. You have to be more tactical with it.

In other words, you are right. It comes down to user-error, but it feels so lame when everyone else can pop supers at times you cant. :(

You're absolutely right -- Hunter supers are not "get out of jail free" cards like the other classes'. People that hate on hunters just can't handle the skill and precision it takes to play one. Our skill tree perks are geared towards rewarding true aim and precise attacks.

The other thing that's different about Hunter supers - you get punished for popping it at the wrong time. If a Warlock or Titan hits the bumpers to go into their super animation and then die before it finishes "going off", they have their super charge back when they respawn. If a hunter pops his super it doesn't matter if he dies mid-animation of the golden gun/arc blade enacting - his super charge is reset to zero.

If any Hunter gets fewer than three kills with their super, that player is incompetent. Other classes require specific circumstances to deal anything close to the amount a damage a hunter super can do. Hunters can just run around the map tearing the opposing team up.

Hunters also gain significant damage resistance while their super is active, and blade-dancers have perks to REGEN health with every kill they make on top of that. With Striker Titans and warlocks, Players must chose to utilize specific perks or exotic armour to gain similar benefits, at the expense of other perks.

This is ONLY true with Bladedancers. Gunslingers are just as easy to kill while their golden gun is active. I still maintain the average number of kills is only significantly higher as a Gunslinger if you don't count the times a Gunslinger gets killed right after popping their super. And I know what everyone is going to say "But that's because you messed up." As someone who plays Gunslinger as a primary, you can't always know that when you turn the corner after popping your super that the guy around the corner will have: heavy ammo, a shotgun, a sniper ready for you, any sticky grenade, or a super of their own (which if they aren't another hunter they won't die in one golden gun shot mid-super). And that's not even counting the number of times I've met good teams when I come around the corner who focus fire me, so I get 1 kill and then die from the combined power of 3-6 weapons trained on me. I do prefer Golden Gun over any other super, but it's definitely the fragilest of all the supers. Also, talking to many other hunters, you tend to hold onto your super for longer as a Hunter since you don't want to get killed while you're activating it.
