Yes it can, but tell me anything special it can do without the use of it's super. Can we shoulder charge? Stack passive abilities? Gain over shields on a simple melee? Outside of it's super, it's severely underpowered compared to all other classes. You pop it once every 4:20 and throw 7 hammers with forge master on. You're lucky to pop it 2 times in a crucible match (depending on game type) and yet it can be shut down through coordination, nova bomb, striker, GG, and more. Yes, the super is strong, but the class as a whole is [i]weak[/i] which is why I don't play it. I am crippled severely outside of my super.

The class is great. Comparable to most others. Look at voidwalker, for example. Its basically got all the advantages of that class, and more. The only thing that's different is titans don't get blink. But the two 1HKO grenades, burning damage, instant recharge melee, and incredible regen makes the class astounding. On top of that, its super is overpowered.

Again - 15 hp will make it fair

Lowering the hp by 15 won't matter at all when people can just stack armor that gives them a higher armor eating when using a solar based subclass. They'll still tank a Golden Gun shot. It'll still take 2 to kill. It's fair enough as is considering the subclass as a whole is absolute crap without it's super. (Pvp wise at least, that melee is good against certain Majors and ultras)

I don't think armor works like that ...

It works pretty well for me. I don't know what percentage it is, but it's actually more significant than it seems.

In crucible?

Yeah. I was wearing my armor that granted bonus armor/resistance when using a arc based subclass and I tanked a golden gun shot to the face. Sure I was really low, but I did it. Maybe golden gun needs a buff I've always thought so. The no damage resistance always bothered me. Maybe cut the animation time. I don't know. Gunslinger is my fav hunter class and I feel the mobile super for it is kinda weaker than others.
