On Tuesday next week, I am 98% sure I will be switching mains to a Hunter or Titan. The class balance and identity has gone out the window. Basically all classes are technically space wizards.
After what they did to Solar Warlock, there is genuinely no point in being a Warlock. They are much slower and have arguably the worst class ability in the game (PvP).
Calling it now, Arc Strider is going to break people. Watch how fast complains rack up.

Unless getaway artist stacks with amped arc souls, or the amped melees are somehow secretly amazing I’m likely playing Titan. At least for the first few weeks. I’ve just finished getting them up to light and prepped as far as exotics and stuff go. Arc Warlock had such potential, but Bungie missed it. The new aspect was the nail in the coffin for me. Bungie took chain lightning (arc warlocks whole thing) and gave it to everyone without giving warlocks a way to excel at it. I was hoping for maybe a long ranged precision thunderbolt charged melee, or maybe a cast rift to emp nearby enemies or arc weapon final blows summon a lightning strike at that location (a weak one like Thunderlord’s…) Idk, just not this. Hopefully I’m just overreacting and it’ll be like void hunters or Solar titans where everyone thought they’d be weak but they turn out to be pretty strong. We’ll see though…
