Also, the song that plays in the background when the sword bearer is down denotes how long until the sword runs out.
Just a few tips from a fire team who has already beaten the raid.

Yeah the sword is on a timer based on when the swordbearer spawns I think? Not when he is downed. We tried to wait to kill the swordbearer until Crota was back mid, but the second our guy picked up the sword it disappeared haha.
