A Striker's view on Throwing Knives.

I know what you're thinking that my opinion is. "Throwing Knives 2 OP needed n3rfing". No. No, no, no , no , no and no. Seriously, why Bungie? What was the need. I can even list some reasons why you've just made a massive c0ck-up. 1. Throwing Knives rewarded a skillful aim. 2. They have a rather long cool down. 3. They rarely OHKD as the most ran the precision perk. 4. They were the Gunslingers only counter to other classes longer range melees. 5. It felt rewarding to land a clutch throwing knife. If these aren't the best reasons I apologise. I'm sure you can list some better ones below. I just can't understand the logical side of the persons brain who decided that throwing knives were unbalanced? If you had to you could have just removed the incendiary knife... Seriously, now I'm worried for shoulder charge, despite the range of the Stormcaller melee. For proof that the Stormcaller melee is bad just watch Nkuch's latest video where he melees someone on Black Shield from past the OHK range of a Party Crasher. Just know this hunters, we feel you. Edit: [u][i][b]For those complaining that I am biased against warlocks I am not. I just have my views on their melees. Purely my opinion. I don't really want to see nerf posts on here either.[/b][/i][/u]

  • I have to agree here. I main a Titan while I do have 330+ Hunter/Warlock in my arsenal. For a Hunter to OHK with a knife prior to the unnecessary nerf, it meant it was a pretty skilled player. In comparison to any number of other OHK abilities out there, the knife had absolutely [i]NO[/i] reason to be nerfed. There are far too many Nerfketeers in this community that are ruining the experience of the game. Buff it all, I say. Give the players options to use whatever they want and let the chips fall where they may. These pointless cries for nerfs remind me of my days playing Quake - same weapons, same damage, same TTK, same everything and ya know what? People still got p0wned. Know why? Because it matters NOT how good you are, what weapons you use, how much you cry, whine, or complain, there will ALWAYS be someone better than you. I have been running Mida and gotten owned by someone running a blue hand cannon. I ran DoP and have been destroyed by someone running NLB at AR ranges. At the same time, I have run Mida and gone on a 2.5kd match and have pulled almost 3kd with DoP. You cannot win every match and own every single lobby. You are going to lose battles. Some games you will lose most and others you will lose only a few. These are the realities of the game. Repeated nerfing only hurts the experience and forces all of these unique little blueberry snowflakes to herd together on the same eq because they feel they can still be "competitive." Let it go - enjoy the game, ride the highs and forget the lows - it all ebbs and flows. And for GOD's SAKE - STOP CRYING FOR NERFS!!!! That's it. I'm done. Thanks for reading.
