You don’t use Young Ahamkaras Spine in PVE, stop lying. They’re obviously incredibly strong in PVP and that’s why they’re getting nerfed. Free kills with minimal investment (much like AWs).
If I had a dollar for every hunter I’ve seen in PVE using YAS, I’d have $0.50 (for everyone that says they use them in PVE all the time).
Edit: I genuinely forgot I posted this lol. Bungie said a long time ago they’re trying to cut back on ability reliance/uptime including PVE, hence the HOIL nerf back when. Does it suck? Yes. Is it warranted? Yes. Do hunters have significantly better PVE options? Absolutely.

Ah, i get it. You just don't run pve? Almost any solar hunter I've seen is married to yas. Solar hunter was pretty popular after 3.0 and doesnt have many exotics dedicated to it. Celestial has been power crept by star eater. Calibans doesn't work too well in endgame. Ophidia spathe isn't too great (imo). Athrys helps with unstoppable champs, but its only one stun then you're out of a knife. Shines greatly in pvp though. Yas is kinda the best option for high content since it was able to clear trash mobs and get enough energy back from that wave clear to have it back in time for another wave.
