It seems to me that some overload choices are better than others.
I never use a sword because it never works first time and after that failed hit, the overload kills you.
When dealing with overloads, nothing beats Le Monarque... at least atm... its poison significantly hinders the speed they regen and get back up. Superb weapon.
Elsewhere it's not up to much but it's a Lost Sector and GM winner for sure.
Ditch Swords because they are as much use as the sky to a fish!

But flying fish use the sky to evade predators. 😛 Just for fun I tried using a sword (Temptation's Hook) a few days back in a Master Empty Tank run. 😂 Went just about as well as I thought it would. By the time I had the 1st Overload down (starting from full sword ammo) I had nothing left for the 2nd Overload and had already blown a significant amount of time. With Le Monarque I can shut down all the Overloads in the 1st section before they even get a chance to move. 👍🏼
