In a way, I could understand reducing the intrinsic quickdraw value of the blade dancers skill a bit; whereas I abuse the hell out of it, it's a class ability. That means it's effect leaves the perk slots, and even the choice of what armors to wear open on blade dancer, whereas other classes have to have perks or an exotic to do the same. By slightly, I realistically mean 10% at max; enough to make it a great selection, but not so much that it's on par with everything else out there, basically for free. I can see it on the Aspects as well, because even though it takes the exotic slot, it can be used by all 3 subs (wish that worked for the Graviton...). But on the other hand, what is the point? I don't think it was ruining the game or costing people gunfights on the regular. It might have converted a trade into a win, or a loss into a trade from time to time, but likely once a match or less. Being as it affects blades and voidlocks, I would suspect it was somehow tied to them wanting to stuff Blink again, although I don't know how. It's the only common ground, unless they are simply trying to make the weapon perk more viable to those subs (well, technically, warlocks and that one sub). I bet they think they had a reason, but everyone else out here in the real world is very confused as to why that was even a priority. With all the things they broke by not testing them well enough, you'd think they might have had bigger issues to worry about.
