Alright D2's class specific swords are cool idea and have given birth to quickfang and crown-splitter. Unique swords with different animations and attacks setting them apart from other swords. However this is not the case with the warlock exclusive sword which has the same animation and attacks as every other sword in the game. The unique perk it carries Whirlwind blade is shared by It Stared Back a sword from the raid which has an extra perk relentless strikes giving it additional efficiency compared to Eternity's edge. Honestly there is not much point to using Eternity's edge as it is outplayed by It Stared Back and negative space. As someone who mainly plays warlock it's a shame that this sword wasn't given as much attention as quickfang or crown-splitter. I propose a rework of the blade to fix this starting off with unique animations for the sword and a new attack like the quickfang and crown-splitter have. Warlocks are space wizards this sword should reflect that it could shoot projectiles or make use of the blocking ability to maybe absorb incoming enemy damage and use that to increase the damage dealt by the sword. If you read all this thanks for listening to my rant since this in no way is the biggest problem destiny 2 has but it's something that has bothered me since I got the sword anyway thanks reading this crap hopefully someone at bungie reads this and takes the time to change it for the better.

the unique perk is the eternities guard -

5 RepliesYou need to block more. Eternity's edge uses no ammo while blocking until incoming fire is absorbed. It also has the highest block rating of any sword in the game - it will literally reduce incoming damage by 90%. You can survive direct rocket launcher hits in crucible while blocking with it.

1 ReplyA Jedi sword that can reflect projectiles while blocking like D1’s artifact.

You might not care about this, but our sword is BiS for our class for PvP because it has the longest range out of all the available swords for us warlocks. You might argue that Crown Splitter has longer range, but it is also way slower. In theory, we only lose to Quickfang.

I agree all the other class swords are interesting and unique the only thing eternities edge has over normal swords is a different design and that is not enough

As a hunter main, I agree

Good ideas 👍

Eternity's Edge's unique ability is that it can block infinitely.
