they supress everyone else too. no super is immune, so why target nova bomb specifically? its better against suppressors than a roaming super because its a one off. if they dont suppress you in time, it dosent matter. and yes death in animation is another reason, but nova bomb is one of several supers that gets additional advantages when cast mid-air, as i listed. as for not killing people, thats why you dont aim at the bubble. you have a few precious seconds between casting, and actually launching the nova. you use those seconds(plus shatter to allieviate AoE issues you mentioned if you have them or simply enjoy the perk) to watch the people in the bubble manuvering, predict their intended escape route, and adjust your aim to target the escape route before you fire. odds are the bubble will still be close enough to be popped, assuming you didnt kill the escaping defender. also, nova bomb doesnt have a 'nades/horseshoes because it has tracking. the angry magic perk. as for having a smaller radius than the fist, you can change that by using the shatter perk on nova bomb itself, or use the annihilate perk to "increase the size of explosions from nova bomb and grenades". as i said. like any class, ya gotta know the classes strengths and weaknesses and mechanics, then play to them.

I'm not saying I don't know it's weakness or strengths. It's the class I use every weekend to go flawless on my warlock, but of all the subclasses, it is the weakest. Especially in 3v3 games. You have no idea how many times I've blinked out of the way of a Nova Bomb. I Garrison out of their way all the time. The super can shutdown a super but it is easy to dodge it.
-
1- if your going flawless in ToO with it regularly, you have no business calling it a weak class. "i win the most intense PVP event in the game regularly with this class because it shits the bed! bungie, buff this class!" see the disconnect? :P 2- if you have issues landing shots with nova bomb, again, the shatter perk is your friend. as is either angry magic or annihilate. i have no issues getting my nova bombs to connect, unless i -blam!- up my aim. even with WoD, twilight garrison, shade step and blink all in play.

1- I'm not asking for a buff. I am simply stating it is the weakest class. I only use the class because it lets me have the agility my blade dancer has. 2- I don't use my super regularly. I only use it against supers that are close range and slam it into the ground. I rely more on my gunplay than any super in the game.
-
ok so your not asking for a buff. still a big disconnect and you are still not helping your argument that it is the weakest class...
-
I play on the class because I don't like the warlock glide and it has blink. That's why I said that for me, it's only redeeming thing is blink.
-
well then that an opinion and a play style preference. not any kind of objective complaint about the class.
-
Assuming defender were a better class, hypothetically it's still the 2nd worst class or 8th best class depending on how you view things.
-
i can have this same debate vs any sub class.... the idea of a "best class" is a myth. move on please.
