I don't think Arcblade is particularly OP, but it's easily the least skilled of all the abilities. Ability skill list, most skilled to least skilled, descending order, goes something like, Titan bubble of love, still have to fight despite placing it and keep yourself about you. Warlock sunsinger, still susceptible to being shot, only provides buff, have to use well. Golden Gun, no extra ability to take damage, only three shots, have to use them well. Fist of Havoc, very situational, depends how you use it. Nova Bomb, again, fairly situation, have to aim it correctly, little skill required. Arcblade, mash buttons skate across map. I don't think Arcblade is OP, if anything, used correctly, the bubble of life is the most OP, but it's clearly the least skilled.

  • The only super that really requires ANY skill is the golden gun. All the other ones do some much unavoidable one hit kill splash damage there's no escaping it. As long as you hit the button you get a free kill. The problem with the supers isn't really the actual abilities though. It's mainly that all of them give you ridiculous health buffs. Titans get overshields all the time for various things, and warlocks get health regen perks, etc. Only class that doesn't have health perks is Gunslinger. All that to say I still do ok though. They seem decently balanced. There's nothing more obnoxious that having 3 people shooting a bladedancer and still having him kill your whole team though. Now that I am understanding the game better and figuring out how to play it that rarely happens now though.

  • Agreed. And anyone who thinks the bubble requires skill is deluded.

  • I think it does, you can still be overwhelmed within it, and with the upgrade I use, Blessing of Light, a lot of thought goes into placement, as your overshields remain outside the bubble, so you have to choose when to pop out, when to remain inside, when to duck out and back in for an overshield recharge, proper placement. More thought goes into proper bubble usage than any other Super, easily.

  • In all honesty mate, if a Titan can't survive in his bubble with the right perks, he seriously sucks. Maybe if the whole enemy team rushes him. There is no skill required, you just stay in it or near it. And melee/shotgun anyone that comes close or inside. No skill required. As the man said, golden gun is the only one. The entire pvp scene has a distinct lack of skill requirement in general. Between supers and heavies, there are more unavoidable one hit kills than you could shake a shitty stick at. It's a joke. Oh and don't forget shotguns! Zero skill required. 6 people in a match yesterday all with invective. It's fr a reason. Crutches. They should take supers and heavies out, or at least have a game mode that doesn't include them. More like Halo. But I'm afraid bubble requires no skill either.

  • Well, seeing as I presented a side to my viewpoint and you just went on an aggressive rant and repeated yourself, seems like I'm right.

  • Aggressive rant? Erm lol? If you think that's aggressive no wonder you think the bubble takes 'skill'. Yes you explained your side and I disagreed. Disagreeing isn't aggressive. Not my fault you think standing in a bubble that makes you twice as tough or twice as powerful is skilful....

  • More thinly veiled insults and aggression. How childish.

  • No that was last comment only. Your parents must have not let you out of the house unless you were wrapped in pillows if you thought my other comments were 'aggressive'. Get a grip.

  • Again with the thinly veiled insults, you poor thing, you can't express yourself except through aggressive means, how stupid.

  • Unless Arc Blade is charged, the only option I have against the bubble is to run away. The Titan just places it down on your control point and you're -blam!-ed. Shoot him with a shotgun and it takes off 1/3rd of his blue shield. Can't take too much skill to survive. As a Blade Dancer I've been killed by one shotgun blast and a melee, or been reduced to a sliver of health by a fusion rifle shot.
