This super is hard to make sense of. The way your character swings may look agile but it certainly doesn't feel it. Blade Dance was definitely more agile and easy to control. I had a Sentinel come at me with his super and my Hunter in Arc Staff just flipped out and couldn't hit him. There was another guy next to him as well and my Hunter just couldn't lock on. If I had Blade Dancer I easily could have beaten them or at least understood why I didn't if they beat me. I don't really understand the use for it. It looks and sounds way cooler for sure, but it's just too inconsistent and hard to get used to. Every other super is easy to make sense of. Arc Strider is frustrating most of the time but incredibly badass when it works. Please fix it.
Edit: turns out theres a lot more to Arc Strider than I thought (combo-wise). I didn't know that dodge was unlimited while in super etc. Maybe the game could make the combos more clear?

Arcstrider is probably the best subclass of the beta. Multiple combinations for various attacks and the dodge is great. It just takes some time and practice to get down right. Much rather have this than an overly easy button spam super.

turns out..... hunter isnt the most easiest class anymore... no more easy kills.

Bladedance was almost an auto target. It'd lock on if you were barely looking or moving in their general direction. Arc Staff is more AoE based so it doesn't target as hard.
