Destiny 2 players call for nerfs to ‘jank’ The Final Shape super in PvP


Besides the Prismatic subclass, The final form added a new super Light for each class in Destiny 2and one of them already dominates PvP.

In The final formHunters have a super Storm’s Edge that allows them to jump from point A to point B and damage enemies around them in a split second, up to three times. While Storm’s Edge is average in PvE, it leaves no one standing in PvP and can easily kill Guardians in one hit. On June 5, Destiny 2 gamers on reddit Okay, the super must be “castrated”.

“You have to have a lightspeed reaction when the hunter uses it and even then it’s possible that he’s already pinpointed your exact location even if the knife isn’t anywhere near you,” one player wrote in the post.

If a hunter activates the super while you are in his crosshairs, you are dead. Although you can say the same about any super in Destiny 2The fact that it has three charges and no possible counters makes it very frustrating to play against. Additionally, many players report being hit by Storm’s Edge through walls and cover.

The lead author pointed out that most of the issues with this super could be solved by removing the extra damage resistance the user gets while it’s active. This would give you a window of opportunity to stop the hunter before he gets more kills.

On its own, the Storm’s Edge is annoying but not unbearable. On the contrary, it is part of a larger problem in PvP, which affects Prismatic Hunters as a whole. The creators like GernaderJake has already pointed this out Prismatic Hunters are the powerhouse of PvP, especially thanks to their Strand clones. After the recent nerfs to the Khvostov 7G-0X and Speaker’s Sight, Prismatic Hunters should be next on Bungie’s balance list.
