That time is long gone, however. Bosses are faster and more frantic. They get up from their downed animations faster, they attack multiple times before you can even hope to cancel most of sword's PAs, and alternatives are faster, more precise, have longer range, and can cancel on a whim.
Sword can be used effectively, sure. You can also build a raft out of egg cartons. That doesn't make it better than the alternatives.
All of that said: A hunter main will have better HP than every other class, and better satk than a braver main plus a rare mastery that grants +30 satk for 1 sp.
