Hahahahahahaahhahaa I'm beginning to think this whole balance thing is just a joke... They nerfed the worst super in the game, and left Hammer of Sol (pretty much Bladedancer on steroids) untouched....
In all seriousness though...
Let's just have a moment of silence for Bladedancer....
Edit: Well this post really blew up... I'm trying to respond to most of the comments!
Edit: A lot of people saying Hammer of Sol is just as bad as Arc Blade.... Not trying to start a class war because at this point I don't even care, but that's simply not true in the slightest. All the advantages of HoS: Better mobility, has a ranged attack, better at close range (Suncharge OHKs Blade but Blade (a "melee-based" super, also a single thrown Hammer kills a Blade...) takes 2 swipes to kill a Hammer), and has more armor. Again, I'm not trying to start a class war, I'm just clearing this up because I had to explain this to at least 3 people and that number will only go up.

Edit: Thanks @Maestro25 for pointing this out... Skip to 36:45 in this video for their reasoning behind nerfing this super... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0gzJJ4rzvY&feature=youtu.be

They also said that they were going to change shinobus vow. Bladedancer is BEYOND dead.

1 RispondiHow you know what they nerf? They didn't post anything yet
-
I just played a round where we were neck and neck & the two blade dancers were playing hard and damn well too. I guess it just depends on the user.
-
I agree with what you say about Sunbreakers vs. Bladedancers.
-
Really well at least they did something right in this update
-
It's a very slight nerf if anything. Play smarter and it wont effect you anyway pansies. Honestly this player base man.
-
Bungie doesn't know how to balance PVP because they are all really bad at PVP. Sure they developed the game and for that I am grateful..but lets face it..every time you see any of them play PVP on stream they are god awful. All they know is how to look at the "charts and statistics" and then nerf/buff based on that. Nerfing blade even further just proves that. Not even addressing Hawkmoon just proves that. Im sure they account for what youtubers recommend and the "community" recommends...but it seems like every update they still just dont get it..Hopefully this update proves me wrong and crucible is "balanced" however just based off what they released I'm very disappointed.

1 RispondiWhat's crazy is that it got nerfed more than Stormtrance did...
-
It's a good thing they nerfed arc blade, it had it coming.
-
Everyones face when they announced the nerf. 😂
-
Bungie doesn't know how to balance and archetype or multiple classes. I'm sure a real developer created the original classes and bungie took the wheel and drove off the bridge saying "it seemed fair".
-
So glad I quit this game

Please go reply to this I want to start some controversy https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/222020304/0/0

11 RisposteI'll probably still use blade anyway. It has the best neutral game. [spoiler]*cough* quickdraw *cough*[/spoiler]
-
Where can I find patch notes
-
Haha I've been playing multiplayer less and less as the years go by, this is just another nail in the coffin
-
Titans FTW, sucka!!! [i][spoiler]...and hunters too...[/spoiler][/i]
-
They dont TOUCH Hammer's regeneration, now do they???
-
11 RisposteArc Blade is able to quickly 2hit other supers, AND regenerate health. It needed a nerf. Cry about it. 😂
-
23 RisposteCan anyone count how many times shotguns have been nerfed, how can they need another nerf, hey I have an idea, make the other shitty stuff better instead of nerfing the shotguns AGAIN. WTF over.
-
3 RisposteIt was deserved
-
I wouldn't call it a nerf. I'd say it's a buff, because now arc blade is better at wiping up entire points. You get a chunk of health back instead of regen. Hell yeah, dude. I might use my hunter again just to use blade like that. I personally could clear off a point when I hear that arc blade noise.
-
The bladedancer nerf was about as stupid as the gunslinger nerf before. No reasoning behind it other than a dev at bungie wanted to do it. They didn't even have statistics backing that up.
-
5 RisposteIt's pathetic. When you compare arcblade to other similar supers (ones on timers, so Hammer and stormtrance) it's by far the weakest one. BY FAR.
-
4 RisposteLife steal and cauterize are fine but hungering blade OH THAT SHIT IS JUST SOOOOOOOOO ANNOYING. Do they even think about this shit?! As a bd main i switched to voidlock... Hahahahaaaa now ill never go back. Cant believe they shit on hungering blade AND blink AGAIN. Whyyyyyyyy bungo. Looks like ill be spending my time playing overwatch
-
2 RisposteYou really think Hammer of Sol is OP? lol... Anyways, I will agree though it makes no sense nerfing Blade and Sunbreaker has Cauterize which is the exact same thing as Hungering blade but didn't get touched.
