Not gonna lie, it's only true if you look at the stormcaller subclass.
Sunsinger has ONE build that is functional in PVP. One. That is a radiant skin build with burn Nades. You can switch to fireborn but I have zero respect for anyone who uses fireborn in normal crucible.
A single nerf to sunsinger would unbalance the entire tree, making it completely unusable in PVP.

What about decreasing damage of fire bolt grenades in return for a faster sel Rez action
-
No. As I see it, fire bolt grenades are at a level where nerfing the would make them useless. Self res honestly is a huge crutch, and if anyone actually tried to get good with radiant skin, you'd see how good it actually is compared to fireborn. In any case, if bungie nerfs firebolt grenades, it would make the melee the only usable thing in radiance. And melee recharges slower than grenades. If armor is nerfed, it would unbalance the close quarters nature of the super. I suggest that either fireborn or Viking funeral gets a nerf, as Viking funeral is very similar to thorn DOT, it's the most complained about perk. For example, a nerf of 2 damage would reduce the damage dealt with Viking funeral by about 16-20.

Then nerf Viking Funeral If I can't regen for 14 seconds, something's off.
-
Yeah, I changed my mind slightly. Instead of nerfing the damage, nerf the time it's actually active by a bit.
-
Most of year 1 sunsingers used fusion grenades and the perk that gives you two of them. That's also a functional build.

Solar grenades.. bye bye Atheon!
