I did it the other day and it was my first time being swordbearer on hard, the pressure was real. Had fun though :) plus I did it as a Titan, there is no reason for a hunter on hard unless your trying to kill him in 2 swords.

Yeah, I actually find using the sword on hard mode as a titan is as easy as using a hunter. I was pleasantly surprised, because I always just used my hunter, but now I'll use both.

Good shit takes skill and some luck to beat with any other class.

Hunter will ALWAYS be the safest/easiest. To argue otherwise would be ignorance. Let's see your Titan/Warlock do it on hard With NO boomer protection. 2 man beat hard with the Swordbearer being a Titan/warlock that would be impressive to say the least. And yes, I know the guy who solo'd Crota hard did it with a warlock this was cause he had too and it took a lot of tries. He would have done it with his Hunter if he could have caused the damage to put Crota down consistently.

Well half the time the boomers don't shoot anyway, plus a hunter still needs boomer protection while he's hitting crota. Warlocks and Titans can just sit on the rock, it's safe enough. No need to get so defensive about it.

As a hunter, I never need boomer distractions. They have never killed me.
