Why all the hate on the "Wombo Combo"

For all you who dislike the so called "Wombo Combo" ask yourself this, was it really so bad? The nightstalker class was an amazing addition for the Hunter, especially since they lacked what is needed for a so called "PvE class" back in year one. All is good in this subclass but one thing, the grenades! The only somewhat effective grenade is the vortex grenade, and without lockdown it's almost completely useless. Using the smoke grenade (while sacrificing invisibility for poison) [b]with[/b] the vortex grenade made an excellent and effective grenade for a subclass without one. But at what cost? You have to use both your grenade charge and melee charge, along with a slot that can give your allies bonus armour and recovery, or drop more orbs. To me this seemed like a balanced combo since alone these two grenades were almost completely useless. Especially in a world where both other classes have a grenade that can either one hit you, or cause some serious damage. Edit: I have no issues with Walocks and their firebolt. For a hunter I am also pro warlock, just though I should clear that up since so many ppl assume I complain about that.

    first of all only noobs need invisibility in PvP it should not even be allowed in crucible honestly but whatever thats a topic for another time. It's one of those obvious choices that EVERYONE uses and noone wants to "make more orbs " for their team in PvP because everyone is selfish and those extra orbs dont give you much super. so they are the perks everyone uses regardless, you dont even need the grenade just throw the smoke, trap like two enemies and just shoot them and bam easy kills that they cant counter at all. its a cheap tactic but pretty much every nightstalker needs it to be good. and then we have shadestep lol. there is no way to make people stop using what developers have implemented in the game but when everyone is doing the same thing and there is a CERTAIN loadout of perks or what have you, that you MUST use it makes the whole experience stale and frustrating.....and NO it doesnt take any skill to throw a smoke and grenade towards someone's direction to capture them in this "WOMBO COMBO" lol
