Why people think striker is op all of a sudden

I main hunter and people all over the forums are complaining how op strikers are. I find this ironic because strikers are relatively the same since launch. Guardians (especially my fellow hunters) are bitching about how op shoulder charge and FoH, only because they have saltyness left over from the last nerf. So on behalf of all hunters; I apologize if we bitch more often than usual. And we can't help it that something in our brain called the frontal bitch lobe is working over time. Again I apologize, A SLIGHTLY bitchy hunter

    • That's how this community is now. It's all about what hasn't been nerfed yet. Nothing but petty vendettas. This whole game is collapsing in on itself faster and faster because of this community, and Bungie's incompetence and willingness to comply with the demands of the weak and lazy players.

      • Sunsingers got slammed by the nerf hammer. Shade step got nerfed on hunters. Now apparently it's the Titans turn. -An anti nerf warlock

        • Ehh. I think it's titans as a whole. They're are the fastest and stronger class in the game. Of course, that's my opinion.

        • As a SC main i have seen first hand that the SC is far from overpowered. It is just a high risk high reward class. I have done everything from jumping into a group of three people and killing them all to dyeing in a melee fight because i came up inches short. Had K/Ds ranging from 2.5 to 0.7. Not to mention i can't even count how many times I've been shotguned before my charge has finished. All you babies are just salty over the SC because you die to it to often. In that case the only advice i have for you is get better or quit playing. Frankly the game would be better without all you people bitching all the time

          • As someone who plays all the classes (mostly warlock now), striker titans are definitely not overpowered in any way. Several months ago when the Taken King launched, everyone was asking for a striker titan BUFF; the new subclasses were strong and few people used striker over sunbreaker. Since then there have been nerfs to: Sunbreaker Stormcaller Sunsinger Every hunter subclass Tripmine grenades Because of these nerfs, a decent subclass like striker seems "overpowered". Even in this meta striker doesn't seem to be overly powerful, it still feels pretty balanced. If bungie tweaks sunsinger a little and restores gunslinger to its previous power levels, nobody would have any problems with striker. Even now, nobody should be crying for a striker nerf, instead we should push for buffs to the weaker and less used things like: Gunslinger Defender Sunsinger Fabian strategy (haven't been killed by one ever) Dreg's Promise (seen 2, never died to one) Red Death (I see maybe one every 10 crucible games) Hard light and monte carlo (haven't seen one or died to one in three months) Hakke pulse rifles (they shouldn't need counterbalance to be useable Primaries in general (let's face it most people use specials and/or TLW most of the time) Come on guys, no more nerfs until we buff some of this stuff. Let's leave striker as it is! Sincerely, a frustrated individual who is tired of seeing the crucible go to shit. PS bungie: Buff the servers and nerf the red bar people with potato routers.

            • Nah it's because they nerfed the 2 other classes 2 hard. Now the titan is the best overall

            • Why did people find sunsinger op? They were stronger in year one than they were pre nerf.

            • Why else? Why did people see sunslinger as being OP after their always been the same? Because blade was better and "OP". When something is nerf something else becomes better and therefor its "OP". Another example is when pulse ruled PvP no one was talking about last word but as soon as pulse get nerf people started to post nerf forms for last word. Hell people wanted to nerf mida MIDA bro. People in this game don't get outplayed they lose because set thing is "OP"

            • Strikers have always been good and complained about. Now that bungie has taken away the sunsinger's key aspect alot of people have switched to striker. The problems with striker have always been shoulder charge and lightning grenades. Think about it for a second, not a single other class has a one hit melee, on top of that a striker can have as many as they want. They also have insane agility because of titan skating and garrison. Finally, armamentarium and lightning grenades is just dumb. Nowadays most strikers will shoulder charge first. If that fails or they come up short they will throw a lightning grenade to get their target to one shot. Then they can finish them off with any primary. The problem is that the subclass allows a titan to do extremely well without firing a single bullet.

              • Sunsinger was the same since launch, but that didn't stop you, did it? The reason everyone is complaining is because hunters and warlocks just got weaker, and titans were already on par (with warlocks at least). Many many people have been complaining about SC for a very long time, it was just buried in "nerf firebolt" and "shadestep is OP" posts.

              • It's Flavor of the Month Titans started using Hammers when they were strong, then we got nerfed and everyone went back to Striker Now all the Hunters and Locks get some needs and swap to Striker and get 3 kills with a SC or Lightning Nade and say it's OP Forums are full of shit posts trying to get Strikers nerfed because they can't adapt to their own class

              • People think its op because of how common it has become. When something gets common and overused, it gets nerfed. Then people just move to the next big thing. First it was sunbreakers, the nightstalkers. Next is strikers.

                Thats a good question and I'm going to give you the perfect answer. People are either jealous cuz their classes got nerfed or they ask for nerf cuz thats the only good ability left in the game.. everything else sucks as it got nerfed :)

              • The only time it annoys me is when you are about to kill them and they fist you...it's so dumb...just die and save your super for a double or triple atleast...unless your trying to preserve a killstreak.

                • When every single class has been burned down around them... It might be time to take a fresh look in comparison to said classes that were burned, yes? Not saying it is or isn't OP. Just pointing out striker may be the same, but everything else around them, is not. So, if everything were close to balanced before, perhaps now striker is out of balance.

                • It comes down to majority use. A lot of hunters were being used before patch so people thought it needed a nerf because they kept getting killed by hunters but it makes since since most people were playing as a hunter your probably going to get killed more by hunters. Well after the patch a majority of hunters switched to Titans and now everyone is getting killed by Titans because you have your Titan main players and then you have your hunters that are switching to Titans and then you have your other players that are hyped for RoI so they want to make a Titan. Since Titan is getting the majority of use now people want it nerfed because they are getting killed by them more.

                    • I main a hunter too. Strikers are not OP, but do need a little tweak. The Titan Skating, auto aim and range of mid air shoulder charges used together needs to be looked at a little. The range of the shoulder charge on the ground and mid air could be reduced a little, 0.25 of a meter or something. But that's it. They're fine otherwise.
