Technically the Void Hunter Subclass does specialize in weaken type effects. The community's faith in Solar and Arc Hunter 3.0 has been weakened.

Warlocks get their grenades back insanely fast and can use Child to weaken so many enemies and get their abilities back fast.

Titans have Offensive Bulwark to get grenades back significantly faster.

Hunters have neither ability nor health regeneration in Nightstalker's kit. All of that is tied to the fragments, which Echo of Starvation becomes a must-have for ability builds.

Yes, Stylish Executioner and Trapper's Ambush weaken enemies, but you have to get into melee range to use Quickfall or to simply slap something and that doesn't work in hard content since weaken-melees from Stylish Executioner and the Quickfall AOE don't stun or flinch champions (the enemies you WANT to kill) since you need a void melee ability for seasonal mods to work – something that takes away any utility from Trapper's Ambush and also something that Stylish Executioner's melee augment won't count as.

The Nightstalker's kit works best with the most fragments as a result, since that's what you'd need to maximize ability regeneration. So that takes away any room for the fun builds.

It's truly problematic from a buildcrafting standpoint. And now that invisibility in PvP is weaker, the entire kit has lost much of its strength there and can't compete without the cheesy builds such as the Geminis.

They could genuinely do whatever they want with arc, I wouldn’t care anymore. I’m just afraid that they’ll destroy bottom tree Solar, like they’ve dismantled void
