When will Arc 3.0 be launching for Warlock? Stormtrance unchanged, uninteresting since 2015

Unlike both of the Hunter and Titan Supers, the signature super for Arc Warlock is unchanged since its 2015 release with The Taken King. Chaos Reach is cool, but again, is comparatively uninteresting to the other two classes Supers, and is demonstrably weaker. With Solar 3.0, Warlock's Daybreak became the game's worst performing Super overnight, and remains in disrepair. But at least that one is fun to use (if objectively unwise to do so) and looks awesome. I don't understand why they're making these choices to neuter Warlocks, and then ignore feedback for months on end. I highly doubt the complete discontinuation of feedback response is related to Sony's acquisition, but it's the only other reason I can think of. Paper says: "Nerf Scissors, Rock is fine". I get that my opinions are colored by the fact that I'm a obviously a Warlock main, but I can comfortably assert that I'm not imagining things here.

    • Personally been having fun with Arc Warlock whenever I'm on it this season. The new Exotic Helmet and Fusion Rifle are especially fun together Warlock's only current problem imo is Super Damage. Damage potential is way wider than it should be across the one-offs

    • I’m a Titan Main, but I’ve been getting back into warlock, still using my void 3.0 cause arc didn’t give me enough of a change that made it appealing compared to the fun shenanigans of blink with suppressor nades cause I can, arc didn’t get many more abilities for warlock from what I know other than access to the other grenades but otherwise I agree with you quite well on this

      • Bungie isn’t buffing supers with this overhaul. Your expectations are out of alignment with what their goals were.

      • Arc on Warlock has always been a mediocre choice at best imo. 3.0 changed nothing in that regard. I will only use it like I have before. 3 singed strikes, and challenges.

        • Emperor Palpatine...unlimited power...Sith Lord of add-clearing trash mobs. Arc 3.0 was as disappointing, nerf and one-way giveaway focused, and boring as Solar 3.0, Void 3.0 and the Beyond Light era Stasis.

          • I must be in the minority because I am absolutely loving Arc 3.0 for my Warlock. More frequent Ionic Traces to regen my abilities, the elemental wells giving me even more ability regen, the aspect increasing my pulse grenade duration and I seriously think the Geomag has improved the Chaos Reach with more duration. I was skeptical because I read that Warlock was changed the least but what it's quite a bit of improvement that I am super pleased with. /shrugs
