PLEASE BUFF ARC-BLADE FOR BLADE DANCERS BUNGIE!!!
Arc Blade is so underpowered in PvE. It has limited usage from a utility standpoint, such that you can use it for quick revives and beating the VoG platform puzzle in style... but its damage output is severely curtailed by the fact that getting close enough to actually hit mobs at the Raid/Nightfall level will almost certainly end poorly for you.
This problem could be solved simply by [b]drastically increasing the amount of Damage Reduction[/b] Arc Blade grants. That way you can still soak up the hits you'll inevitably take while in melee range.
[u][b]Make sure you apply this change both in PvE where it actually [i]is[/i] needed, and in PvP where it most certainly is not.[/b] [/u]
Because that is your modus operandi, and it's clearly being received very well.

32 RepliesDon't want to "rain on your parade" but this post is very ridiculous. I'm a level 30 Hunter with over 120 hours on just my Hunter and I can surely tell you that you very much do not understand the purpose of Bladedancer in PvE. They are a supporting class in PvE, the special is more mob clearing and orb dropping. The camo is for picking up team mates in the middle of a firefight. Etc.. Etc.. Etc. If you're doing the raid, or fighting any boss, you should be a Gunslinger. You will be much more of a help (99%) of the time. To be honest I only use my Bladedancer when doing the nightfall (camo to revive) or when farming perks because of the fleet footed perk. Bladedancer can be very effective in PvP, and that's it's strong side. You need to play both roles efficiently and understand what you're supposed to do as a hunter. Max them both out and use them both how you should be. There is no buffs or nerfs needed. It's simple, don't run up to a boss that requires 3/6 guardians to kill and expect to stab him without being crushed. Do you see Striker Titans striking a raid boss? FYI, gunslinger with the helmet I have (extra goldengun shot) and the right perks will outplay bladedancer anyday, and this is coming from an experienced Hunter.
