Graviton Spike is WAY overtuned in PVP
The fact that it in stasis mode pushes you out of cover and blocks your path with the stasis crystals is insane. And that is on top of it being a 2 tap or 3 tap with the arc overcharge...

I’ve seen a few of these posts today. Which YouTuber made a video… Honestly, I’ve only been killed by the thing a handful of times. I don’t see it as being any better than the comp hand cannon. All these cries for nerfs… it boggles my mind people feel compelled to demand the code of the game is changed, rather than put in the effort to improve at it.

Its getting a nerf for sure. Its way to strong and every hunter is running it.

5 RepliesHand cannons are the Meta. Gravitation spike easily gets out gunned by hand cannons.

Typical - splash damage handcannon crutch because I can't play - that's been going on for years.

TheLastBlackKnightI don’t care anymore - old
That and pulses need a nerf. As do the spread shot HC’s -
1 ReplyNobody’s stopping you from using it lol. Try it it’s actually fun.

Nah it's perfectly balanced that it can knock you out of cover with a 2 tap from scout rifle range!

They do this deliberately to create an environment where you can't compete unless you spend money and buy the new expansion and weapons. It's a consistent pattern, every season.

It's mostly just bakris hunters using graviton spike. Outbreak perfected needs some tuning in pvp. It's all I see in trials anymore

Edited by Ferus Lux: 8/17/2025 7:43:32 PMIt is but i don't really care and still beat it sometimes. Fight it at longer ranges or pull out a spreadshot handcannon in close-to-medium ranges. Also, if a teammate nearby gets 👏 don't engage right away. It's like trying to duel pre-nerf Desperado.
