Straight up, RIP strikers

Strikers are screwed. And seeing the nerf kids get their way, over and over again saddens me. I only play as a hunter and will never stray, but taking a sub class and neutering it is terrible. And will never fill me with any joy. I don't think firebolts burn times were op, that was kinda the point. Minus one for recovery for blinkers is uncalled for. Should've left trip mines alone. Shade step and smoke grenades were fine too. And the sun breakers super had to be ridiculous considering how crappy their neutral was (was/is, no offense). So let's look at shoulder charge. Seems like you gotta wind it up and aim. High risk high reward, going through with it puts the striker in a pretty bad spot. Why nerf it? Wtf is gonna get nerfed after that? Man if these forums didn't exist I think destiny would be such a different game today. We can sit here and talk about balance all day and I'll here you out. But each sub class has its strengths and weaknesses. Why put everyone on such level ground? 1) it's impossible and if you do manage to get it close some how 2) what would we be left with? Our exotic weapons aren't even exotic anymore because of the vast majority who cry nerf. Sorry for the rant, I just can't muster the words that can describe how much I hate all of u that cry nerf. You guys ruin so much for so many people. Shame on you. Bungie can we just vote on all buffs and nerfs from now on please?

      • I see where your coming from and understand. I dont want strikers nerfed but it's going to happen. People say why nerf if it's been the same since day one, but so was sunsinger and now thats not even a viable subclass.

      • I could live with the inevitable SC to the back and the over-shield bollocks that can tank an entire magazine from TLW, if they were actually busy doing something about lag and cheating. Maybe then the shoulder charger would actually be apparent in the game instead of materializing, as if by magic, just before the impact.

        • Pretty sure they are going to shorten the charge time and the hit damage on the SC. Just wish bungie would return all the subclasses to it once was, before all nerfs

        • Shoulder charge is a problem when the mechanics at play largely keep you from seeing it coming. That is the lack of motion tracker due to required ADS to hit anything and lacking sound design. If they had better sound design it wouldn't be an issue, and it's not just shoulder charge needing it. The entire game could use more thoughtful sound design. I agree that the ability itself is pretty well though out.

        • Bungie should just end it. They killed this game, murdered it. Just stop, regroup and put the rest of your efforts in to Destiny 2.

        • The game became Call of Destiny. To many PvP players getting upset about being outplayed and blaming the equipment of the opposite player instead of looking at their skill level. and because Bungie decided to value those opinions over others, the game has lost all uniqueness. it just another shooter. You dont feel powerful, you dont feel like your guardian matters, and you dont feel like your gear is special. Hopefully with Rise of Iron, the devs do something to bring back that spark of fun back. Both with the gear and making our characters feel unique.

          • PvP is the main reason why things get nerfed.

            • It's nothing new. Titans as a whole have been the butt of many jokes in year 1. I don't care. My Titan will always be my main and my hunter will always be on the verge of getting deleted.

            • I hate nerf herders but I don't think you can blame the community for this. Bungie clearly has their own ideas for PVP and they want every class to have exactly 1.0 KD. I've never heard ANYONE complain about being stuck with tripmines and they went and destroy those. Most people wanted hammers slightly nerfed and they went ahead and just killed them. Bungie has their own ideas on balance. They probably check the forums every now and then but don't be fooled into thinking they aren't doing exactly what they want to do.

              • The community has ruined this game's classes. When TTK came out, I had always mained a warlock. Mostly stormcaller for PvP. Then, I started seeing forum posts everywhere in early 2016 after Sunbreaker got nerfed saying that warlocks were the most "OP scrub lord class that required no skill", and I didn't like hearing that. Eventually I knew that warlocks were going to get nerfed, so I told myself I'd start maining the most under powered class at the time: Titans. Titans were so much fun to use with Twilight Garrison, and I always thought they were the most balanced class. Since Bungie nerfed Hunters for no apparent reason, Titans are going to get nerfed because of all the whining. Instead of asking to buff Hunters back, the community asks for Titans to be nerfed. I could deal with having to adapt to new weapons all of the time, but having to constantly adapt to a new favorite class to play is tedious. The worst part is that if you find something that works for you, you're automatically labeled bad and need a "crutch".

                  I don't understand your logic. You complain about "nerf kids," yet you want to give them the power to vote on changes? And for the record, I highly doubt Bungie bases their decisions on what they see on this forum. If they did, this game would be a far bigger mess than it already is.

                    I main a Titan and it'll piss me off to see SC nerfed since its been the exact same skill beta. But it'll be funny to see all the new complaints about juggernaut+skate+shotty once everyone is forced to use another option
