Bladedancer Is The Weakest Super By Far.

Bladedancer already drops equal orbs

Bladedancer needs to be fixed to drop equal orbs

Bladedancer should drop less orbs

Hey don't get me wrong, Bladedancer can wreck your team off a point when used properly and its pretty cool being able to melee across the Hellmouth, but this super does not spawn orbs equally with other guardian killing supers. The video shows "vox amoris" getting a slayer with the Bladedancer at the end of a game of control. I pulled the clip from our Iron Banner montage and that is why there is music on it. You will notice that only 3 orbs are dropped. Granted, this is at the end of the game and so it is not a perfect "specimen". But I wanted to give some evidence of the lower orb drop rate along with this post. Gold Gun: First kill 1 orb, Second kill 2 orbs, Third kill 1 orb, Fourth kill 2 orbs. Striker Smash: One kill 1 orb, Double kill 3 orbs, Triple kill 4 orbs, Breaker 6 orbs. Void Bomb: One kill 1 orb, Double kill 3 orbs, Triple kill 4 orbs, Breaker 6 orbs. Radiance: First kill 1 orb, Second kill 2 orbs, Third kill 1 orb, Fourth kill 2 orbs. Bladedancer: I really don't know how many orbs you drop but it seems like maybe an orb after two or three kills and possibly one more if you get four kills. Even in PvE Bladedancer drops very few orbs. Now I don't know how exact my stats are as far as orbs droped but I think I am pretty close to what it actually is and if I am right, then I just feel like Bladedancer is getting the short end of the stick. I rarely use Bladedancer as I think it is one of the hardest supers to be consistent with, but it is my personal opinion that no matter what class you are using, the kills you get with your super should drop the same amount of orbs as the next class' super. The bubble for a titan drops 2 orbs I think, I don't play/have a titan, and I have seen many Bladedancers kill two people and drop a single orb and sometimes not even that. Just to be clear I am not arguing that Bladedancer should be empowered to be more effective for user kills, I am arguing that it should drop the same number of orbs that the other supers drop.

    • First of all, Arc Blade really is annoying and takes little skill.

      • Your topic is kinda misleading. You're saying it's weak, but then you just go on about how many orbs it drops. That's two different things.

        • Blade Dancer is op in crucible, however I agree that it should drop 4 orbs for an ultra/major kill which as far as I know it only drops 2.

            If you think Bladedancer's super is weak in PVP than you must suck my friend. I get 2-5 kills with it everytime. Rarely ever die using it. But I will say it's useless in Iron Banner and in level 28+ PVE.

            • As much as I'd like to agree, this seems to be right on the edge in terms of power. On one hand it does drop a pitiful number of orbs, but even then it still can do a number on a crowd AND buffs the durability of the hunter AND increases their mobility. Though it could stand to be a little better in PvE at least, I mean really WHY IS THIS SO USELESS AGAINST ANYTHING THAT ISN'T A BASIC MOB!?
