Bladedancer is the worst roaming super in the game. It is the only subclass to have every melee ability & every grenade in the subclass nerfed. It has had its super usage, maneuverability, charged melee range, super lunge distance, hit detection, & even it's main form of jumping nerfed. The latter has been nerfed repeatedly & is apparently getting nerfed again Tuesday. It is the only subclass where the super requires point blank melees for kills. It has health regen on melee or super kills where voidwalkers have it on grenade kills, melee hits, & super kills. Sunbreakers have it fairly similarly to voidwalkers with a cooldown of 3 seconds & the need to kill with melees like blade. Blade's current saving graces are Shinobu's skips & quickdraw, one of which is already getting a "change" in a few days. By your flawed logic, all roaming supers should be getting nerfed since shotty melees will be less common, yet only bladedancer is going under the knife if you will. The super that has to be in melee range for a kill is the only one being made easier to kill. Blade is the proverbial dead horse & bungie has been beating it for a year & a half.

What stops a bladedancer aside from shotguns? -Teamshot -blade not connecting to hovering enemies -golden gun -anchor -slam -sunbreaker -nova Bubble or stormtrance is debatable and depends on how the fight goes.

This is completely off topic, but have you ever realized that [i]Gun[/i]slinger has throwing [i]knife[/i] and [i]Blade[/i]dancer has [i]quickdraw[/i]?

Sorry. A large proportion of the community are past the stage where they can use their brains Follow my logic: The forum is full of salt. The community reads the forum and absorbs salt (some people actually generate salt) Salt causes high blood pressure High blood pressure causes strokes Strokes cause damage to the brain This prevents rational thought

Pvp is garbage and always will be.

Thank the lord there's logical people.

You must suck because i find it easy to gun down a blade dancer with a primary oh yea did you know you could just run away because they cant even keep up with you and did you know team shotting one will instant kill in a bink of an eye how about you get good stfu and buff blade dancer and keep your weak self off of this

I was annoyed by the Bladedancer changes but they make much more sense now, thanks OP!

Don't care I just want my hunter to compete speed wise without having to use boots of eao.

This is the adjustment that should be made to bladedancer in my opinion (I'm not sure what the actual changes are.) They should change it to reward those who are skilled with bladedancer. Those who plan attack routes, cover and baiting enemies effectively. To that end... Resistance should be lowered, to coincide with the shotgun change and to allow a reasonably quick takedown on unskilled bladedancers caught out in the open whilst not very mobile. Attack should be increased to allow bladedancers to 1 shot most guardians. This would reward bladedancers who can sneak up on players, including HoS users. If they aren't quick and get caught, they die. If they are, they get a sure kill, on pretty much anything. The only problem is that is would become broken against Ward of Dawn and Radiance. If there was a way for only these two sets to be two shotted that would be perfect.
