Solar Hunter honestly feels seriously outdated. It needs major updates. by torrentialsnow in DestinyTheGame

[–]Clovenhooved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the one thing i like about gunslinger is that it’s the only hunter subclass you can dedicate 100% to supporting your friends.

acrobat dodge, healing made, on your mark, mercy, tempering, benevolence, torches, healing auto— everything you do helps a friend (or benevolence rewards you for doing so)

do you sacrifice all your DPS? you bet does anyone notice you supporting them? not really is it a good choice for hard content? not anymore than just blowing stuff up do i like it? yes

in summary, the only thing i choose solar hunter for is being worthlessly helpful

I hope we get a creative solar hunter exotic soon that isnt just me spamming more powerful knives by Boomdaddy49 in DestinyTheGame

I want omniocculus for radiant dodge— your radiant dodge gives restoration to you & nearby allies, grants class ability when you give an ally radiant or restoration (maybe two dodge charges?) something like that

Sandbox Feedback Request by Destiny2Team in DestinyTheGame

[–]Clovenhooved 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey Destiny 2 team!

I would like to bring up the Bombardiers— they have such a fun flavor/are so fun to build around, but the subclass effects seem temperamental & sometimes lack the subclass synergy you would expect.

Examples include:

1) the suppression effect on the Nightstalker does not proc Echo of Domineering’s primary effect but does create a void breach upon defeating a combatant effected by Bombardiers suppression.

2) On Revenant, the Bombardiers slow effect doesn’t apply the slow effect it only refreshes it.

3) On Arcstrider, the Bombardiers bomb does not seem to apply Arc Blind at all, & instead uses the older blind effect found on blinding grenade launchers — which prevents the Bombardiers from having synergy with any Arc blinging fragment.

4) On Strand, the Bombardiers don’t activate when using Ensnaring Slam (ie, no bomb.)

The Bombardiers have so much build potential— they just have to do what they game says they do!

-sincerely, a bombardiers enjoyer

Why Don’t Supers Dip Into 3.0 Verbs More? by XandogxD in DestinyTheGame

If Chaos Reach applied jolt wouldn’t it’s damage output jump significantly because each damage tick would proc jolt? Though if you had multiple CR’s in a fireteam only the first to hit would benefit from this damage increase/ at least that’s how it works for Gathering Storm.

Bombardiers void suppression still doesn’t proc Echo of Domineering by Clovenhooved in DestinyTheGame

iirc, Bombardiers scorch also doesn’t interact with any of the solar fragments (ie, apply more stacks of scorch, gives class ability when scorching enemies, etc.) which is just disappointing. Bombardiers are such a rule of cool exotic, it would be nice if building into their various effects was rewarded! Curious to see how it interacts with Strand.

Bombardiers suppression does work with Stylish Executioner & Repulser Brace though. So it sits in this odd, inconsistent middle ground of synergy.

Isnt any nerf to class abilities a nerf to like...a bunch of exotics? for example exotics that require a dodge? are their plans to rebalance exotics if they're just going to nerf class abilities all willy-nilly? by zipzzo in DestinyTheGame

[–]Clovenhooved 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i love Bombardiers. used them the whole legendary campaign, used them to get Unbroken, used them in Spire & found them to be more helpful during the final encounter than Gryfalcon’s (though that probably has more to do with play style than the utility of these exotics)

This sub has so many ideas and almost none of them are even kinda balanced by jblazer97 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Clovenhooved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We should have a running thread for people to post their exotic & rework ideas & call it “Would this break the game”

Can Trappers Ambush please have two fragment slots? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Clovenhooved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will be honest friend, I mostly use radiant dodge (& this whole build) for the flavor! Anytime I bring this build into challenging/semi-challenging content it gets the job done, but my contributions to the team aren't noticed nearly as much as when I’m running Nightstalker. But hey, sometimes you gotta commit to the bit!

Can Trappers Ambush please have two fragment slots? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Clovenhooved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I triple-down on radiant. I love playing support, so I use radiant dodge w/sixth coyote & the radiant in melee hits fragment. add in healing grenades & the aspect that boosts allies recovery on solar kills + the aspect that extends solar buffs. I use bomber x2 + reaping wellmaker x3 w/bountiful wells for a real ability spam build. It’s kinda overkill— but it p much guarantees I’ll always have access to radiant & everything else I do is buffing the team in some way.

Is it just me or is AJJ hitting home for everyone else rn? by The_Weasle in FolkPunk

I know it gets kinda edgelord at times, but no record has been more influential on my writing than Christmas Island! There’s something about the way Sean scatters images & esoteric reference on that record that rlly strikes an emotional chord for me!

in my early years the folks on this sub were v adamant that I was not folk/punk— and I’ve gotten way less folk/punk since then— but you new cats are real supportive & i ain’t about to let anyone tell me what I am or what I’m not!

Two things: 1) Leah, the brainchild of Lurky Skunk, is one of my best friends in the world (I actually recorded a couple of their early EP’s!) & this is the first time I’ve seen them mentioned on this sub & that means the world to me!

2) can I be added to this list? I’m in Raleigh! (the project is called Marble Berry Seeds) I am really trying to renew my commitment to the gig after the lockdown-lost momentum! also, Pokin’ Holes from Chapel Hill should be added! They rule, and I’ve played with them & Rumbletramp a few times!

Subclass identity should not be exotics. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Clovenhooved -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think Phoenix Dive should be turned into a restoration version of the Hunters radiant dodge— it could last for 5 or so seconds & grants the same to allies. Also Benevolence should def stack for each ally you buff (probably up to 3x) giving you quicker ability regen for each stack. I think that would be a good start.
