Straight up, RIP strikers

Strikers are screwed. And seeing the nerf kids get their way, over and over again saddens me. I only play as a hunter and will never stray, but taking a sub class and neutering it is terrible. And will never fill me with any joy. I don't think firebolts burn times were op, that was kinda the point. Minus one for recovery for blinkers is uncalled for. Should've left trip mines alone. Shade step and smoke grenades were fine too. And the sun breakers super had to be ridiculous considering how crappy their neutral was (was/is, no offense). So let's look at shoulder charge. Seems like you gotta wind it up and aim. High risk high reward, going through with it puts the striker in a pretty bad spot. Why nerf it? Wtf is gonna get nerfed after that? Man if these forums didn't exist I think destiny would be such a different game today. We can sit here and talk about balance all day and I'll here you out. But each sub class has its strengths and weaknesses. Why put everyone on such level ground? 1) it's impossible and if you do manage to get it close some how 2) what would we be left with? Our exotic weapons aren't even exotic anymore because of the vast majority who cry nerf. Sorry for the rant, I just can't muster the words that can describe how much I hate all of u that cry nerf. You guys ruin so much for so many people. Shame on you. Bungie can we just vote on all buffs and nerfs from now on please?

  • I'm a Nightstalker most of the time and I'd just like to say that smoke was pretty annoying. Limiting movement speed, disabling jump abilities, making visibility next to zero? Pretty awful. It was like having concentrated Thorn essence available every 30 seconds. Was it fun for the user? Definitely. But I can understand why it was reworked. I still consistently get kills with the smoke and have no complaints in that regard. That being said, the shadestep and Twilight Garrison Nerfs were kind of weird. Especially after Bungie releasing that supposed chart they base their nerfs off of (which is bull) which showed Nightstalkers consistently have a below 1 KD on average. Twilight Garrison i understand was nerfed because it's in the same category as shadestep (evasion), but it had different use and did not need to be hit imo.
