He's dependent on the Griffon Bow. Without Opportunity Knocks or Longshot, he simply can't compete at range with any ranged kit. With the Griffon Bow and Easy to Miss, it becomes relatively safe to plug all 3 shots into the enemy. Considering you need to be that close anyway to make use of over half his abilities, the Griffon Bow winds up being the best option; it even helps with Stealth's cooldown.

 

If you want the most mileage out of Hunter, I personally feel its best to play it as a melee class. If its especially dangerous, you always have the option to sit back (although you will probably wind up drawing aggro that way).

"Dependent on the Griffon" isn't true but I agree the Hunter is a close to mid range bow user where the Archer is a far to mid. Griffon certainly suits close range because of it's spread although I haven't tried any of the new expansion gear.

Fair enough. I've been away from the game for a while and forgot about the nerfs to Longshot and the buffs to Spike Trap and Caltrops.

Now if take into account ability damage and there griffon would hit for less and can't use 3 attacks we need way better ratio than 13 to 10.

so around 13 hits on 10 autos just to catch up autoattack difference.

 

Auto attack blows. LS, ES and Spike Trap FTW!

Luke dindnt say if hunter's explosive shot got buffed, too. does anybody know this?

question for griffon bow :
just got it. does it shoot more bullets than normal bows also with
abilities like leaping shot (decreasing cool downs)?

Yes, the hunter has the same explosive shot as the archer (the update notes do mention both classes).

 

Griffon bow only fires extra shots on basic attacks so you won't get extra arrows with leaping shot, explosive shot, etc.  You will however get three arrows with rolling draw (leaping shot upgrade) as it is a buff to your next basic attack.

So how is buffed spike trap doing on Perilous matches?

Im stuck at work, and recently promoted my hunter.

but the tooltips still say otherwise - no matter if you are in a lobby or not

Primes instantly, disables enemies, hits in a small aoe, and hits quite hard.  It's great.

I'm seeing 150% for explosive shot on both the archer and the hunter once I enter a lobby.

oh, sorry 

I thought it should have been more after the buff.

 

150% still seems so little...;-)

Hunter the weakest class? No the assassin has earned that designation.

Sometimes I feel the need to get defensive in all those "I don't understand the Hunter ergo he suck" threads, but then I think if that mindset ever vanished, he might get popular & I wouldn't be hip no more.

 

And that is the worst.

She really has no way of surviving a dragon fight. Outside of that she's hardly the weakest.

Uhm... Argent is actually a beast against dragons.

 

She has Evade.

 

She has Stealth, which she recharges the fastest by far due to the nature of her fighting style. It also instantly removes all debuffs & fire when upgraded.

 

She has Fallback freaking Plan.

 

Most people simply aren't willing to sacrifice more attack skills in favor of survivability and are thus forced to face the consequences. That doesn't make a class weak if you refuse to use the possiblities provided to you.

I think the Reaver is the weakest class for the average player.  The main reason being the last wave.

been asking this for some time:

has the evade upgrade been fixed? then it actually could be an alternative.

What bug? You will still sometimes lag out, I suppose there is no workaround to movement related latency.

 

Upgraded, the decoy does a solid 1k+ damage for me, since it can crit.

now I am using Spike Trap after the buff.

 

And since you can use it while in stealth, 

it is great for Perilous

 

btw, I got an Spike Trap ring that gives 30% duration (?)

 

now, whats that supposed to do ?

Nothing, goddamnit. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

 

Spike Trap has to be my favourite skill and I made a necklace out of mine. Wouldn't be surprised if there's a +30% duration ring for Hook & Tackle.

 

 

 

the upgrade used to do 0 damage.

 

Odd. I'm on the Xbone playing since December, and it always caused damage properly afaik.

Hmm, I forgot about evade. Maybe I'll give her a try.
