Nothing beats it. It's essentially a ranged arc blade. You get an over shield, and can use it at further ranges, making it much more difficult to go up against. With blade dancer, it was just a shotgun and melee. Can't do that to people in storm trance. They get you from further range, because warlocks of course get it easy becuase they require no skill. Hell, even sunbreaker takes more skill than stormtrance.

No way man, there is no overshield. With the Titan and warlock supers it's totally OK to run away in attempt to deny them the points of a kill. I did it earlier today, ran in circles around thieves den and came up behind for the kill. Titan and Warlock can whipe a team if they're all...oh idk... Trying to cap B in control [spoiler] which is hilarious to see btw[/spoiler]. But warlock super has no overshield or insta health regeneration on kill, team shoot and they will die.
