I will say this again: Arcblade has never received an OFFICIAL nerf.

So, I'm still hearing these claims that Arcblade was nerfed to oblivion. I tried finding some patch notes about it, but found absolutely nothing. The only nerf that Bladedancer received was the Blink nerf, and the arcbolt Grenade nerf. But no nerf to the actual super. Think about it: The reason people thought Arcblade was over powered was because it was the only roaming super in year one, super quick and agile, and back then no one really knew how to shut down a Bladedancer, not until house of wolves where a blast from a high impact shotgun(which were easy to obtain in this era) and a melee did the trick. "You can't find any patch notes because they ninja nerfed it, idiot! They didn't want a backlash from the community." They ninja nerfed it? Okay. Then why would they have patch notes for literally every other nerf? Even Sunbreaker, arguably the most controversial subclass to date, has it's own set of patch notes that I can link you to, easily. Gjallarhorn, Destiny's most sought out weapon [i]ever[/i], got nerfed. Which shows that Bungie certainly doesn't stealth nerf to avoid backlash, because if they did, we'd be missing a lot of patch notes. [b][i][u]HOWEVER!!![/u][/i][/b] Along with update 2.0, AKA the arrival of the taken king, Arcblade has been.. Funny. Hit detection is off, and it just feels awkward to use. I think that this is unintentional. Why would Bungie nerf bladedancers in 2.0 when more competitive subclassess were running around? Makes not a lick of sense. So, my proposition is to keep spamming the forums and let the developers know that Arcblade is in need of a fix(while we're at it, fusion rifles as well). And maybe in the coming weeks, it will receive a class update similar to Titans. Edit NUMBER ONE: Guys, I'm a beta and a day one. Been following every detail about this game since it was announced in 2013. There's nothing I'm not aware of. Anyway. Arcblade never had an armor nerf. It's always had a 50% damage resistance. Sunbreakers had a 55% damage resistance. The highest a super could achieve(besides radiant skin). Sunbreaker had a higher damage resistance than Arcblade [i]ever[/i] had. My proof? Arcblade has always been able to be sniped out of their super. It was never able to tank a golden gun. Or a nova bomb. Sunbreaker could do [i]all[/i] of this. The [b][i][u]ONLY[/u][/i][/b] thing wrong with Bladedancer is the hit detection. If they fix hit detection, it will be returned to its former self. It will be a reliable super again
