So I was ready to archive this build after the recent reworks nerfed it even more but instead decided to give it another shot. Tinkered with the gear a little to maximize crit chance, traded some sustain for it but the build feels a bit better now. Problem with Bladesworn is that it doesn't really have a playstyle, we just rotate through whatever Gunsaber skill is available and hope for the best. The skills are slow, when something doesn't crit it gives the enemy too much breathing room to resustain, get away or counterpressure us. The new gear and the 90-95%+ crit chance (with Fury) aims to improve consistency and keep the damage rolling. It's a bit less tanky now as a result, but the active healing is still great so it's not a big deal. It's not tier one but it's playable, getting CC'd is a big weakness however and the cleansing is also worse than it used to be so need to be careful.
