[spoiler][/spoiler] So shout out to bungie for actually making the exotic swords useful in the raid! So in taken king bungie gave us some of the coolest designed exotics but at the same time some of the useless. When I got my first exotic sword I was excited (and kinda just glad I didn't have to gather more f***ing relic iron on my Titan ) that finally I could kill things with a frickin space sword, but then the rose googles faded off realizing they really didn't do much. Sure they where good for a heroic strike with a burn but even then I would way rather just use my truth on a void burn, sleeper on solar, or even a thunder lord on arc instead of getting too close and dying. But with the launch of Rise of iron and the new raid I feel the swords are actually useful!! Each sword feels like it fits in their own special way. Example: boltcaster great for holding off adds in middle lane of vosik , razelighter just amazing for captains especially on death zamboni, and the one that shines the most Darkdrinker with not only great on captains but the best way to dps aksis. Not saying the swords outshine the holy Ghally or sleeper but it's just nice to see the swords have a place in the raid and relevant again! Ps: I think they just gave use the young wolfs howl to make up for all the damn grinding we had to do for the other swords
