How Hunters are amazing in VoG
Makes me sick to see people kicking hunters out of VoG groups because they are "useless". I am going to prove them wrong. Here is how they are amazing in VoG
1. Destroying oracles fast: Got three oracles you need to destroy in less then 5 seconds or else your team die? Not a problem for a gunslinger. They can one shot those oracles
2. Great relic holders: Hunters are best fitted for the relic. They are very fast and quick. The whole team spread out and you need to cleanse them? Not a problem for the Hunter. They are also really good for in the teleporter for Atheon.
3. Clearing out enemies: Got a bunch of supplicants swarming your team on atheon? Get gunslinger and Time Vengeances and you can take out all those supplicants out. Need to help out clear enemies with the shield guy in the teleporter? Not a problem.
Now you know how they are amazing in VoG. What are they are not good out?
1. Cheesing
I laugh at the people who say hunters are useless in VoG. They are the people who want to do it the easy way by cheesing the bosses. I just want to say you guys that think so are pathetic and just so sad.
Well that is it. What you guys think? For those Hunters that do VoG, you guys are the real MVP.
Edit: Thanks for all of the responses and glad to see that many people feel the same way. It is not the class that makes the group succeed, it is the person that is holding the controller. This whole Hunter Discrimination needs to stop.
Edit: I am not a Hunter, yet

17 RepliesIt seems to me that the things you've noted as assets of the Hunter are things that can be easily accomplished by other classes or are last ditch efforts to save a floundering team. In my experience a relic holder should not need speed, as an example. The team should come to him. Offing oracles fast is something a nice heavy weapon, especially raid found heavy weapon, can accomplish. Same for supplicants. On the other hand, nothing a hunter or even a Titan can do can match the "get out of jail free card" that is the self Rez of the sunsinger. And few things can match the wonderful ward for stopping that stupid Templar from teleporting... Except maybe an invisible Hunter. :) But overall I have to agree with the hunter-hate on this one. We just aren't as highly valued in the raid. As someone with a hunter as my primary that isn't easy to accept, but I'm afraid it is the truth. Hunters aren't useless. They can dps with the best, and are the least of a liability in the gorgon maze. But overall our abilities fall just a bit short of what the other classes potentially bring to the table. I'm personally hoping for some kind of buff that helps us out. (Couple it with the pvp nerf everyone seems to so desperately want, I couldn't care less) Or even better, maybe a third subclass that is more team/support focused.
