Why does everyone keep saying it?
"Bladedancer was nerfed so bad, no one uses it!"
Besides Grenades and Blink being nerfed(which also affected warlocks) the super itself has never been nerfed. Ever.
If anyone can find me patch notes that have proof that the Bladedancer super was nerfed then please do so.
Oh, and don't give me that "Secret Nerf" bullshit. I wanna see concrete proof.
Edit; My point is that Arcblade never received an "armor nerf" or "health nerf". There are absolutely no patch notes or articles that state it.
Edit 2: https://youtu.be/J8C6zq617oM a video detailing Arcblade year one and year two! Credit goes to Eugeine. Please bring this to light. The 2.0 update has messed around with the Arcblade in general. That isn't fair and should be fixed as soon as possible.

Blade dancer unusable since 2.0. Imo
-
Recovery stat was adjusted to where a no recovery build was nerfed. Thats about it other than what was mentioned above.
-
Range of attacks was nerfed considerably, it's much more costly to close on someone. Without Mask of the Third Man, it's more or less useless.

Year 1 Bladedancer: Press RT, magnetizes to an enemy across the map

Concrete proof? Did you ever play as a bladedancer in y1?
-
Did you use bladedancer in year 1?

6 RepliesBladedancers don't need a nerf from what they are now. They are good the way they are right now. They can get a lot of kills but now everyone has learned how to counter them so they can be killed relatively consistently as well.
-
They pretty much cut its duration in half
-
They had a armor nerf, been using blade dancer since year 1. We used to have sunbreaker strength armor, not anything like that now. Takes a chaperone shot to the dome to die kek.
-
I don't know exactly what update it was, but I can tell you from experience that they are much easier to kill than they used to be. I remember trying to out run them back in the day, now I just try to make a little space and kill em before they get to me.

12 RepliesSorry to break it to you, it was nerfed... This is why sunbreakers should be nerfed as well (hammer of sol, not the whole subclass)
-
They also never explicitly said they nerfed radiance grenade recharge rate. But you can only throw maybe half of what you used to be able to. They don't always state everything they do. That being said I don't think it was armour they nerfed I think it was only duration they nerfed.
-
They're not ever gonna give you proof. That's where the hilarity comes from.
-
I dont know, it feels much easier to kill them now. Then again, I might be scared of Sunbreakers too much to care about the puny knife wielding freaks.
-
6 RepliesLmao hilarious. Clearly not a year 1 player as you would remember the patch that decreased a bladedancer's armor. Shortly after, they nerfed blink and arcbolts aswell.

2 RepliesThey did nerf it and wrote about it in the patch note

10 RepliesHealth buff was brought down. I'm sure of that. I never use the subclass, never did because it was a no skill class for fgts. Now it sucks, and still is for fgts.

1 ReplyLol you're never going to find patch notes on this, sorry. I suggest you stop searching and rest easy

1 ReplySunbreaker was never nerfed.

1 ReplyShut up you have a sunbreaker titan as your profile picture. Don't talk shit

1 ReplyI don't think bladedancer was nerfed either, people just learned how to kill them. No more team shooting them with an autorifle, it's shotgun melee time lol. Sunsinger was nerfed though. It just doesn't seem to last as long as it used to. I can throw as many grenades as before. Omg, sunsinger vs bladedancer, those were the good old days.

2 RepliesYou're an idiot. YouTube is your proof. Look up any blade dancer video at launch vs now and you'll see they can't tank jack now.

Bladedancer used to be my favorite subclass. I can't remember the last time I've used it since TTK dropped...

8 RepliesI just got one shot by a party crasher non headshot the other day. Totally not nerfed.
