Trust me bladestorm may do more damage per hit than any other ability in warframe but the fact that it has a unchangable target limit of 18 and though the attach speed which is also unchangable (thought it did get buff slightly with the finisher animation speed buff) and the number of clones are limited and unchangable as well. this means even if you deal heaps of damage per enemy your overall dps can easily be out done byframes like mesa, excal, sary, frost,even rhino. why becasue the speed of the abilty is limited to 3 clones, about 3 attacks per second so ive you kill all 18 enemies in one hit you will take 5 seconds to kill 18 enemies at BEST, if they take more than one hit to kill that just adds to the time before you can even recast. Sayrn can nuke unlimited enemies in range per second. don't get me started on exalted blade + radial blind insanity, and do I even have to tell you about mesa?Sure they may not due as much damage per hit but if you thinkabout how they can kill more enemies before you in the long run they will out damage and be better for the team than ash. I love ash but he's pretty balanced in the fact that you know almost for sure waht he targets will die which is way he shines in endgame, but he's not OP. As for the one hit only thing, bladestorm only hits bosses and minibosses (the three assassins like G3 staker, harvester and others like the manic, bursa, and juggy are all considered mini bosses) once, otherwish he would be o with guaranteed kills on all bosses.
