I used to be a Hunter main... past tense... now, if u wanna play top-tier content, especially in LFGs, you are an outcast. And I fully understand why:
DPS/burst: Goldie only third place behind Chaos and Thundercrash, also higher risk to miss
Debuff: Tether useless due to Divinity or Artefakt-Mods (Breach, Oppressive,...)
Buffs: none. there is nothing even close to Well or Bubble
Crowd-Control: both tether and Revenant beaten by Warlock-torrets
Invis: rarely used, as unnecessary with proper crowd control, see previous point
the whole Arc-Staff-trees are useless, as roaming supers will never be prefferred in top-tier content
so, there is no role a Hunter could play, that cannot be played better by Warlock or Titan.
proof me wrong: what is the hunter good for in top tier content (e.g. GM, Master-VoG), that would make him the better choice over Lock or Titan??? just look into lfgs... ever other post says: no hunters... that's not just because of the cape....
thx

Hunter main... I have almost every seal in game and have done countless gms with hunter. I've even solo some gms playing hunter. The only reason people say no hunters in lfg is because they are biased about a race in game or they don't know how to use hunters correctly. Bottom tree goldy can one shot all champs. Stasis can freeze and ad clear a room. Bottom teather with chest you can capture plates on your own or take some engagements on your own. Even run as the person that revives idiots. Blade barrage is great dps in vog against atheon. Even on master. Only two things I would not use in pve as a hunter is arcstaff and spec blades.

Hunters are fine. People are just intellectually challenged - the "no hunters" LFG thing is funny. Half of the morons making those posts need to be carried anyway.
