Did the Warlocks unteach the Hunters blink?

I'm curious what (if) the D2 lore might say about Hunters losing blink. Doubt that Nighstalker will get it. Did the Warlocks untaught them with space magic? Because they didn't like something the Hunters did? Did the Hunters gave up on it for whatever reason? [spoiler]PS: Not sure if untaught is the right word since English isn't my first language. But I think you get the idea.[/spoiler]

  • [i]Did Warlock take back Blink from Hunters?[/i] I think this might be a more proper way of saying what you wanted to say...

  • I commented on a similar question in another topic, but I think the simplest lore explanation for why Hunters can no longer blink is this: guardians lost their connection to the traveller, the light, and their powers. It makes sense that, somewhere along the struggle to regain their abilities, Hunters could not regain powers that were not native to their type. It's not natural or intrinsic for Hunters to blink. Warlocks may have to teach them again.

  • my main gripe about the Hunter though is the new Class move "Dodge" its kinda pointless and doesn't really benefit anyone haha

  • Lore-wise there doesn't need to be an explanation for it any more than how the Sentinel got the Voidwall grenade. [spoiler]Untaught is fine because while it's not really a word there isn't a better one to describe the situation.[/spoiler]

      They might have givin up on it because of all the nerfs. But I think the arcstrider lore wise is complete deferent than bladancer maybe thats why we dont have it. But how did we forget to use bladedancer is another story

      • Bladedancer Hunters learned Blink, not Arcstrider Hunters.

        Maybe since we no longer have our OG light, we don't have the same energy that was used to summon our abilities? \_( O_o )_/
