Did you use the linear Pattern function to create what you have? If it’s a circular arc, you could use the circular Pattern option around the arc.

I don’t have an answer but will instead add another question that the OP’s question made me think of… Could this be achieve using “follow” in some way? If not, Maybe a “Follow Pattern” function could be a nice addition to the pattern tool set.
