The first sword I got was the void sword, mainly because I was a nightstalker hunter. But eventually I grew to dislike the design of the blade, not that it's a bad weapon just he design for me is not that great. Then I got the arc sword because in my opinion that blade is the best out of the three exotics, and I still use it to this day, sure my the fact of using an arc weapon with a mainly void use hunter (which is my main) makes me a little ocd, it's a small price to pay for ascetics. As much as I want to get the solar sword, after the two week process of trying to get the arc sword and finally getting it through dumb luck I don't want to go through a session of frustration seeing my target warden dying before the boss is even at half health.
