Glaives are a joke.
First off, each Exotic Class Glaive needs to do more damage and have an intrinsic champ mod effect after aiming with full glaive energy. Solar=Barrier. Arc=Overload Void=Unstoppable. Catalysts for them would be nice too. Graverobber, Subsistence, and some other stupid perk option. Why not.
Secondly the damage on these in endgame content is really bad and enemy damage will ignore the glaive shield too often, making it a coin toss whether you shield up and survive. Stopping health regen while guarding needs to go.
And lastly, damage perk and Exotic perk compatibility is a -blam!- mess. Almost as bad as special Grenade launcher hidden stat and magazine/frame BS. Creating a weapon type just to stifle its synergy and potential out of paranoia and fear of players having fun and actually killing strong enemies with Glaives just BLOWS MY MIND. Let the damn things breathe for once.

From what i can tell its explosive damage. The glaive shield should curve around us slightly to prevent the explosive damage from bypassing the shield. Id love intrinsic anti champion. Thats a great idea. But i dont know if they need a lot more. I would love to see them increase the generation rate of passive shield energy. Or allow us to regen health through the shield if we've stacked enough dr to not take damage from the hit. That would be cool. But the tradeoff has to be damage. They cant out damage or even compete with weapons that offer zero survivability. Or every other weapon in the game would be obsolete. I love glaives. I have more kills with my nezarecs whisper than i do with most other weapon types. They work really well for what they are. If anything i think just preventing the explosive damage from bypassing the shield and maybe anti champ on the exotics would be great without taking it to far.
