Before you all say I need to get good, let me explain.
First. Broadsword does 33 to the head and 22 to the body. Now, I might be wrong about this, but that means that it take 7 headshots to down a guardian. That is insane. If, in-fact, I’m wrong, and it does two shot, I still think it need to kill in a 5 headshots total. Meaning it does 40 damage to the head. Which, wouldn’t be extremely op.
Second. The handling/aim assist is absolutely terrible on console. I find it incredibly difficult to land headshots on guardians, and the weapon is extremely punishing if you don’t. I think it should be just as easy to hit headshots on the broadsword as the Luna’s howl.
Third. This is just a situational problem, I don’t really have a solution. But, by the time you get a headshot kill, you have to slightly disengage from the fight to reload. Most likely you will be very hurt after winning a 1v1 with a broadsword against a bygones. Now, you have very little time to try and get as many kills as possible with desperado, and hope someone doesn’t shotgun you while you’re reloading or get one bursted because you peeked with no health.
All in all this weapon is extremely punishing, and I will never take it into competitive instead of bygones.

Agree it needs a buff in pvp, got mine today, very underwhelmed :( .. it's awsome in pve though, so not a total loss but that was a hell of a grind for my go figure to be better in crucible.

It needed a buff since season 3. It’s not going to happen
