Good to see the Hunter exotics are terrible again. Sigh....

I'd say using Chain of Woe [b]and[/b] being able to hold 2 throwing knives sounds like a damn good idea.
-
What are two Throwing Knives good for? Just use the perk that instantly replenishes your throwing knife upon a precision kill and use the exotic slot for Symbiote lol
-
Either way, I will be abusing the chaperone until it gets nerfed lol
-
It will probably start off with 4th horseman range...

Stupid. Stupid. Incredibly stupid.

This is one of the best hunter exotics I have seen for PvE. Mot3M is useful, yes, but Arc Blade itself is one of the least powerful supers for PvE. Knucklehead Radar is and always has been eh. Use a weapon with that perk, like Fang or Messenger. Arachnid is useless. Achlyophage is bad for PvE. YAS is useless for anything. Khepri's Sting is ok for gunslingers but without the perk giving extended invisibility it doesn't have much use. Radiant Dance Machines are only good for Abyss. Crest of Alpha Lupi is only good for Strikes and Trials. Lucky Raspberry is shit except for Trials. The best Hunter PvE exotics are undoubtedly Celestial Nighthawk - a Gunslinger and PvE exclusive, Don't Touch Me, which requires you to get hit, and Bones of Eao (surprisingly useful but a bit gimmicky). This new exotic is good. It enforces Bladedancer's main use in PvE (like any good hunter gauntlet) - invisibility. And it does that in the most legitimate way yet. I'll use it. We don't even know how good it'll be for Nightstalker yet, as well.

Edited by Adam: 8/25/2015 10:40:37 PMI'm not gonna read the walls of text, but I'll say this: Additional Throwing Knife = Already a perk Additional Bladedancer Melee = Fast Twitch is better Lucky Raspberry, Aclyophage and Nighthawk are top tier for PvP or PvE You're gonna use these once or twice, then vault them. Only way these will be considering any good is if they don't fix back-stab. But then it'll just be abusing a glitch

Edited by Toshiro: 8/25/2015 10:45:32 PMTldr: these will be a top tier Bladedancer exotic, and possibly good for Nightstalkers. Lucky raspberry is pretty shit for PvE, it's just not that useful. Invisibility is THE reason to run Bladedancer in PvE, and this gives you more of it. What's not to like? EDIT: you wrote almost as much as I did.

Edited by Insomniatron: 8/25/2015 10:16:55 PMHow is that terrible? For Bladedancers that use a certain build, that thing will be a monster. And it has definite benefits for the other two subclasses.
-
Or you could use Fast Twitch which gives you unlimited melee charges and use the exotic slot for something good?
-
Unless your build is based around Escape Artist
-
Terrible as in how? Two smoke grenades are better for pvp lol
-
Better than Lucky Raspberry? Doubtful.
-
Yrs better than lucky raspberry
