How to fix Hunter class in two easy steps.

[Maenara]

This addresses the problem of Hunter being a weak main class, and an overpowered subclass.

Step one: Reduce the overall multiplier of all combined Fury Stance-related skills by 50%.

Step two: Change the effect of Fury Gear Boost to "While Fury Stance is active, multiply gear gain and damage modifiers given by Fury Stance-related skills by 200%/220%/240%/260%/300%. Main class Hunter only."

(Optional) Step three: Change the name of Fury Gear Boost to match its changed effect.

(Optional) Step four: Change "Main class Hunter only." to "Main class Hunter or Fighter only."

Problem solved. Hunter is now 50% stronger as a main class, 50% weaker as a sub class, and everyone is encouraged to try out different things as a sub class.

Step five: Everyone goes FoTe

Step 6: After everyone invests a ton of time and money leveling FO/TE and getting good gear, nerf Ilmegid and Elysion into the ground for total lulz.

(You wouldn't want me to run balance changes because I would go out of my way to punish people who only use what's at the top of the metagame.)

They already ARE at 50%. JA Bonus is what ruins it.

step 7 buff Pa's now we have a useful class again
step 8 dont join grps with three+ FO/TE.. if you do than make sure you equip a nice gunslash (Vraolet with full potential unlockd BIS in that case)
step 9 enable all your auto words to show how thankful you are

That is a good idea on how to fix Hu being the ultimate subclass and the useless main class but still Hu weapons and PA might need to be fixed as well so as to allow them to perform on par with the other class.
Atm, nerfing Ilmegid and/or elysion might not be the best option as ilmegid requires proper gear and set up to be optimal thus keeping it as it is might be an option while buffing the other class so we might see more use instead of going into an MPA and seeing the flying hands of doom everywhere

Why is it always about fixing Hunter?

We love having options, the class isn't broken, no fix is needed!

I can RaHu, BrHu, HuBr, GuHu, TeHu, HuTe, FiHu, HuFi, FoHu

Soon to be: BoHu, HuBo

^ look at all those options!

Leave Hunter alone!

Iru Megid should force the caster to get lock-ons like Homing Emission. 3 locks possible for current effect, and no locks = dumbfire like Foie

And this is decidedly a buff to Hunter, of course

Iru Megid should force the caster to get lock-ons like Homing Emission.

That's actually a cool idea.

50% -> 25% is probably what he meant.
