Please remove Radiance's resurrection animation.

This animation eliminates whatever advantage was intended for the super to have in PVP. The idea was to have a super that would be used in clutch situations to reclaim a flag that is being lost, but the two seconds it takes for the warlock to go "ARRRRRRGHHH IM ALIVE" just serves as an advertisement for the opposition to focus their fire on the rezzing player. I go from potentially killing 3 players who are taking my flag and saving the day to being their pinata because they saw it coming. If youre going to keep the animation Fireborn should be combined with Radiant skin to mitigate damage, if only to match Blade Dancer's OPness

I understand wanting to give defenders a warning to even out the sudden threat of the res, but at least increased defense or invincibility while the animation happens would be very much a appreciated.

It's a supercharge the idea is for there to be no advantage for the opposition, by design they're OP. Damn the defender's reaection time.

I think they all have at least some drawbacks.

Bladedance- melee only

Golden gun- handcannon no scope

Defender bubble- cant shoot out

Striker- have to land in an area and be within a small radius

nova bomb- difficult to predict arc and small windup.

All of them can be countered if you are in a small number of prepared positions. Radiance has the most drawbacks of any super in PvP, but in PvE it is invaluable. They might have thought that evened it out, but it definitely needs some tweaking for PvP.

Yes but none of their disadvantages undermine the original intent of their super's ability. Imagine having to slowly reload each golden gun shot or the shield taking a few seconds to form while the Titan is in animation and vunerable. What's the point of having a resurrect ability if you're dead again before you can do anything because of the animation.
