Guys, Crota has a sword. Would that be fun?
Enough moaning about Crota looking like a big knight. You're missing a massive clue (at least i hope it's a clue!).
So in the leaked dlc opening cinematic, we see Crota in the middle with his sword.
If the dlc sticks to this then the final fight with Crota is going to be epic!
Can you imagine a fireteam of 6 guardians trying to take down a giant Knight wielding a sword. Running around slicing and dicing you?! If it's like that it will be much more fun and engaging (and will require a solid coordinated fireteam) than the hide and shoot bullet sponge Atheon. Who, let's face it, even on hard mode doing damage to Atheon is the easier part of the raid
So what do you guys think, is that a good idea?
EDIT: hey guys, this is getting some really interesting replies. Seems everyone has their theory who the Knight with the sword is!
Whether it's Crota himself or a summoning knight, I think we all agree a close-quarter fight would be awesome and much enjoyed!

15 RepliesSword of Crota was destroyed. Its like an entire mission on the Moon.

4 RepliesThat's not crota just a knight summoning him. You think bungie would really ruin the surprise and give everyone a look at the final raid boss
-
1 ReplyIt's not crota in the trailer, it's one of his body guards summoning him :)
-
I hope Banuk is a boss. That poor guy has been slaughtered this week. He shall have his revenge.
-
Stand back guys, time to blade dance... Guardian down :(

4 Replies6 hunters. Arc blade. COME AT US BRO!

The more challange the more fun my team is gonna have so bring it on!

1 ReplyNo he doesn't. We broke it remember
-
Hive sword dual is what i want.
-
5 RepliesI'm excited about [b]WIELDING[/b] the sword, relic style. I'm looking for him to have some kind of green shield that can only be broken by a super from a special hive sword.
-
7 RepliesDid they show atheon when they showed the first vog trailer? If not then that knight probably isn't Croat and just a knight that summons him forth or possibly he's like the Templar, a mini boss.
-
5 RepliesLooks more like a staff.
-
1 ReplyIn the story "The sword of Crota" it disappeared after defeating the makers. But it never exploded, they just said it was gone. So I think the sword is still bidding somewhere waiting to be wielded by guardians as we smash Crota with his own sword.
-
Don't care.
-
3 RepliesWe destroyed the sword early in the game or did you forget?
-
4 RepliesWhy would I want to fight an enemy that will just come towards me with a sword while I backpedal away? I'd much rather have a multistage raid boss, that combines a bit of platforming with strategic covering.
-
So is it gonna be a mobile boss or like a widespread damage sword slash air blast. It'll be cool since atheon never attacked us directly an it was just a back and forth change between portals and killing the boss

Edited by Kemaleon: 11/22/2014 5:15:19 PMThis was datamined from the DLC coming next month, its a bounty: Cut Them Down - "Kill Hive using a Blade's sword on Earth." (taken from [url=http://www.destinydb.com/news/posts/76-massive-destiny-patch-tons-of-new-info]THIS PAGE[/url] at destinydb.com. So looks like we're getting swords anyway. Oh, Blades of Crota are Crota's personal guard apparently

Ever played transformers fall of Cybertron? [spoiler]Ending fight: Optimus vs Megatron battle. It went from a 3rd person scoot-n-shooter to a 3rd person melee-only fight. Would love some of that here...[/spoiler]
-
and what if there's another sword there for one person to use to fight Croat while everyone else runs and shoots
-
Edited by Spyndrikal: 11/21/2014 4:59:12 PMLol the Knights are the most fun to fight. A single hallowed knight during the nightfall can send your entire team to orbit if your not paying attention

1 ReplyWell everyone has used the Sword of Crota before. It had the power of a traveling shock wave so I will expect the same. I am assuming that crota has a rocket launcher for an arm and a sword in the other while firing magic. He seems like a dark magic knight user which is not surprising given the current magic in destiny

See when I looked into the data for the next raid, I saw some armor peices from the raid that had something called "increase duration of cleansing light" another peice with "increase damage for A item called excalibur, now excalibur in the legends is known as the holy sword of Sir Arther wield. Does ft his have something to do against crotas end?
-
But I broke his sword.
