Is the Hammer of Sol too powerful?

The infamous sunbreaker super has had it's fair share of complaints thrown at it, but is it really OP? Hammer of Sol's main source of hate is probably found in the incredibly high incoming damage reduction it offers. It's higher than any other super in the game (a bonus of 55%). This stat combined with it's high mobility and the many, relatively easy to throw hammers it can use makes for a very powerful super, but is it unbalanced? What is your opinion on this? Keep it civilized.

    Ahh, ye olde Hammer of Sol argument. Finally someone with the right idea though. Sticking up for us in this ocean of salty misunderstanding. We have hammers - a hurtling capsule of raw power. We have damage reduction - an essential when you run hammers blazing straight through the enemy's defense. We have T-rex arms... still. We have lousy grenades... like, really lousy That pretty much sums up everything we have. All the other perks are novelties and useless in PvP. So what do you expect from a super? Something that makes you feel godly, but halves your health, or something that resurrects you and gives you an insta-kill melee? How about something that's impenetrable, but only has three hammers, or perhaps a weapon with infinitely long range which kills with one shot (Note that bullets don't take an eon to reach their target). A Super is a game-changing ability which leaves enemies cowering for their life, or if you meet a Sunbreaker, jumping like a you got a new pogo-stick for Christmas. Stop whining and accept us as your greatest foe whenever you hear that clang.
