Lets be real bungie. Throwing knives took skill... and 19 times out of 20 they wouldnt 1 shot anyone.
But you nerf them into oblivion.
Meanwhile, warlocks Melee is still blindingly OP and so is Shoulder Charge.
Gunslinger has 0 melee now. Infact, its uncharged melee does more damage than its charged melee...
That is such a slap in the face to Hunters its not even funny.
Then Tripmines which again took skill. Had 0 tracking. (Unlike fusion grenades and magnetic grenades ) dont even stick anymore. How is that fair Bungie? How? Imagin if you made fusion grenades bounce off of people instead of sticking to them. Every warlock would be outraged and flooding reddit and these forums with posts demanding it be fixed.
Come on bungie! Stop hating on hunters! Just because people who play hunters are GOOD .. doesnt mean its because of the subclass. They did not deserve this nerf and you gave 0 explanation as to why you did it.

To be fair, the class is named Gunslinger. I'm a Hunter main and while I enjoyed using tripmine as a stick, it's reminded me that it's a defensive tool for escaping or an all knowing predictive battle starter. The throwing knife nerf was a little as little BS as it's not let much easier to shoot bullets than it is to throw a banger to the head. All in all, I've used the class for the Trance/Woe stacks and will continue to sling bullets towards my foes faces instead of cheesing the world with one off grenades and abilities from the other classes.
