    Is there a problem with the hunter dificulty ?

    We try with people with my clan
    We try with ultra stuffed veteran players
    and each time we are all wiped in less 2 seconds.

    WTF ?

    1 rogue hive kill us all in less of 1 second.
    Is there even possible in march 2020 to kill any hunter in this game ?

    depends on difficulty i think, two of us encountered a one 45lvl hunter just doing random activity in NY open world at daylight on Challenging difficulty. Dude just spam us with drones, holographs, kill us few times with axe, but somehow we were able to drop him. No fancy loot, just mask.

    I soloed 4 from Warlords on "Normal" so far. I know there are people that can also do that on "Heroic", but I'm not in the mood for that experience.

    I also soloed every hunter before, but these new ones are even tougher.

    Yes it is very possible. Adapt to your enemy... These are not Normal difficulty red mobs you're fighting, if one hive kills a whole team the problem is obvious, the hunter isn't too hard but your spacing is just terrible, spread out, don't clump up.

    First off, there's no reason to fight them on harder difficulties. I know some people run harder global difficulties, but there's no need to do that when taking down hunters. You'll get their masks & keys regardless & are only risking failure more by up'n the difficulty. Secondly, having a decently skill powered teammate makes them a cake walk. Jammer Pulse & Riot foam. Granted hunters always use their own disruption first, but simply holding out for that 20 seconds & your teammate can render them helpless. I've helped randoms & clan members take down nearly 50 at this point in NY alone since the update, JP & RF makes things alot easier.

    One issue i've come across is the hunters spawning to close to you, when that happens you get utterly smashed in seconds 9 times out of 10.

    The same thing happened to me and 2 friends he instantly killed both of my friends within seconds and i managed to somehow survive so i used a med kit whilst using the gunner specialisation which also gives me bonus armour and as i went to get 1 of my friends isaac told me rogue hive detected and i was instantly killed now i really think that your comment was to prevoke some kind of reaction because if u played the game or new anything about the game at all then u would automatically know that the hive dont dish out that kind of damage also it wouldnt instantly kill anybody now if at least 2 people have had the same experience then obviously theres a problem

    They're not very hard to kill.....dps builds kill them pretty easily....I wouldn't want a skill build near hunter because of constant emp they'd be useless and not to mention when they do toss a skill the hunter will almost always hack it....use rifle builds you'll take them right out

    Impossible

    Done all the hunters solo except the four. They are ridiculous. I’ve tried it with every kind of build. I’ve done it with NPCs nearby (enemy and friendly). I’ve done it with three other veteran players. It’s completely insane. They have no cool down. They absorb millions of hits without taking any damage at all. Managed to get one separated and the second his armour went he just vanished ... like magic. It’s beyond stupid and I have no idea what I have got so wrong if all you lot can kill them in three hits .... I got one pinned with riot foam and emptied an entire 200 rounds of a god rolled LMG into one of their faces just now and he literally shrugged it off and killed me with two hits. Absolutely ridiculous.
