Hunters getting another stealth buff, please be careful bungie

If class abilities next season are linked to the "main" stat of a class, this is a massive, massive buff to hunters. Running 80 - 100 mobility is commonplace for hunters in pvp, currently, with 5 paragon mods the cool down on the dodge is 10 secs. If we assume 100 of the "main" stat = 5 paragon mods then it means anyone with sense will have a 10 second cool down on the best class ability. Combining this with void battery for next season (no news of no artifact mods in pvp? Why?) Is going to be a problem. Gravation will give perma invis (9 second invis, 10 sec regen on dodge), jesters means the enemy team will have no radar and wormhusk for any top tier players makes you incredibly difficult to kill barring a OHK (which if they see coming, will be tanked) Bungie, if you nerf and buff by usage in the population, what was the % of arc battery used on arcstrider this season for people who had it unlocked? What is the population split of hunters in comp? You're making the best class even stronger because most people play hunter in pvp. Please do not include artifact mods in pvp (or only active in mayhem) and be very careful with the min. Cooldown of the dodge if linked to mobility. Edit: oh look, hunters now have a 8 second cool down, 4 seconds with frostees, well done bungie. Pvp Balance

    Here’s the harsh truth that no one wants to admit: Hunters have the highest skill ceiling in the game. A lot of the best pvp players are Hunters, that much is true. But the problem is when you try to take the success of the best pvp players and make a blanket statement that applies to everyone else. “The best pvp players use hunters, therefore hunters are OP” No, that just means those players are good. Look at the rest of the hunters. A good chunk of them are probably of average skill. They can handle themselves in pvp, but they’re not unkillable. And then of course you have hunters who are total bots. Just because you play a hunter doesn’t mean you can press a button and kill someone (cough cough shoulder charge don’t @ me). I know everyone is gonna come flocking to crucify me for saying that hunters require skill. But I won’t deny it. I myself am a hunter main and I hate Crucible. I mean, I wouldn’t say that I’m a bot, but more average. I can handle myself but I also get killed a lot. And I’m not mad about it (not anymore), I just gotta admit that I’m not that good. On the other side of the spectrum, I have a friend, also a hunter main. He’s without a doubt the best pvp player in my entire friend group. He’s got every pinnacle weapon, he’s unbroken, he’s a complete pvp sweat. And I acknowledge that he has way more skill than me in pvp, even though we use the same class. This is honestly how it goes for classes that are more mobility-based: high risk, high reward, lots of room for error if your skills aren’t on point, but if you know what you’re doing, you can use the class to its max potential and yield massive rewards. Thanks for coming to my ted talk. I await my execution. (Edit: I knew I was gonna be hated by everyone for saying this, much like all Hunters are hated and persecuted from every corner of the community)
