The class of the Blademaster feels very weak right now. With all the new 3rd specks for the other classes and releases of new classes such as the astromancer, it feels like bm is falling behind. I keep seeing people in my partys who have way worse gear than me, but still deal more damage. The newest 3rd speck of the blade dancer is the prime example. I just feel like it is not rewarding at all, to grind for your gear but still deal way less damage than other classes.
One possible buff i feel would be very deserving, is to buff the Exhilaration badge to also have the cooldown reduction provided by the exemplar soul badge. Basicalls every class other than bm can have their bracelett permanently activated in combat, which is a huge damage boost. Missing this boost for up to 10 seconds, depending on your weapon resets, is a huge damage loss. Simply buffing the damage skills would ofc also work, im sure the development team would be able to come up with a good buff if they ever decide to buff bm.
Thanks for listening to my TED talk.
Happy new year.
