I admit that I didn't watch the whole video, but when he only showed one significant clip of a Hammer of Sol user in the first five minutes, he's not exactly helping the case of his video title. A more fitting title for over 50% of that video would have been something like, "Why other supers need adjustments" or anything along those lines. Why Sunbreaker "needs adjusting" isn't a ten minute discussion, so if he just wants to show other supers in the first five minutes, I'm well within my rights to hop out and criticize the video for being poorly made(which it is). Half of it being irrelevant to the title does not a good video make. Read that last sentence again. Now one more time. Good, now you understand it. Even if he did pull some actual reason out of his ass, I doubt it was going to get out of there without at least one taint hair on it. Sunbreaker's super and maybe its melee are the only things that really make the subclass stand out. Anyway, it's definitely easy to kill a Hammer of Sol even without a sniper. If the user is looking at you, yeah you're probably going to die. However, the odds of that happening are the same with any other subclass using their super on you, with the possible exception of Defender. Can you primary one down? Yes. Is it easy? Definitely not, but if you say it's impossible, you're just wrong. Can you shotgun/melee or snipe one? Yep. Is that also easy? Not really. It's about as hard as it is an Arc Blade user. Heavy weapons? You bet your sweet bippy you can. There's not a lot of things that heavy can't stop, and Hammer of Sol is definitely not on that list. This whole Hammer of Sol thing pretty much comes back to it being a slightly different, but better Arc Blade, and people are arguing about it the same way. Was Arc Blade ever overpowered? Of course not. Just no one could handle dealing with it because their first thought to everything is to charge in and try to engage. It's the same with Hammer of Sol and even Stormtrance. It comes down to the players not understanding how to handle going against a super. tl;dr players really have no idea how to do anything other than run at someone and shoot, and that's not how you handle everything in Destiny
