Arc Blade has limitations? (Fan Creations)

Arc Blade:

1. Leaves you stationary and vulnerable while it activates.
2. Has a fairly short duration that grows shorter as you use it.
3. Forces you to run through enemy fire to get kills.

Is Arc Blade powerful? Yes. Overpowered? Maybe a little. But I bet it quickly becomes useless as soon as you start turning down its duration or its mobility or its damage resistance. Any balance changes would have to be very carefully applied or else Arc Blade would turn into nothing more than a glitzy way to reduce your k/d.
