If you got the right setup you could take out a bladedancer yourself, or with a small group of your team. Or like he done just run away from one before they can close in on your. As a sniper and a hunter myself, I'll activate bladedancer as well or golden gun, run away from them until it wears off, or if I have teammates close stay and kill the bladedancer or die trying to try save the team. My hawkmoon only does like 47 damage so singly I got no chance taking one out solo. Would probably survive if I used a shotgun but it's not worth carrying one just for a bladedancer/shoulder charge.
