So Bungie should make swords have unlimited melee usage just like glaives. I am all for it not being "overpowered". Do whatever you need to do to make it fair. It's just that now that we have a melee type, such as glaives, that unlimited melee usage, it really makes me wish swords also have that same feature too. Especially since swords came first before our gun polearms. You could honestly make it so that each sword of the new archetype had some combo technique or something, and then that would be the thing that uses ammo. But for regular, normal melee attacks, it'd have unlimited use like glaives.
And before you say things like "it'll be broken or "too powerful" in pvp," just remember that people have always complained about using shotguns, fusion rifles, meta weapons, etc in the past. If anything, it'd be a balance of sorts to rival those.
And before anyone says anything about it rendering glaives useless, I can argue that it won't.
1) Glaives are melee yes, but they also do ranged gun attacks too. Swords would be for close quarters and heavy close quarter attacks. There'd still be alot of "purposes" for glaives.
2) Just because there'd be a new melee archetype for swords, doesn't mean that everyone will just use only swords. The cool thing about melee weapons is that people can have different tastes in styles that they want to use. I'd wager thar there will still be giant majorities of people who'd use glaives just because they like pole arm weapons slot.
Anyways, in conclusion, I strongly believe that there should be a new sword archetype that has unlimited melee swing usage just like glaives.

I'm still annoyed that the Hive Sword has a cooler combo than what we got I want a Sword with that attack combo Glaive was our first step towards FPS Devil May Cry in D2 despite ULTRAKILL exists (Worth playing btw)

2 通の返信Been advocating swords as special weapons since mid Shadowkeep. Some are pretty powerful though and would be better off remaining heavy…

1 返信I’m down. Sword can do similar to glaive damage when it has no ammo, and significantly more damage when it has ammo.

3 通の返信Makes sense, light attacks and blocking should not use ammo or require ammo to use. Then heavy attacks could cost ammo, although I'm sure bungie would likely adjust sword ammo reserves. Only problem would be in competitive modes like trials were people use 3 peaking to cheat, but a workaround could be that 3rd person only activates when you have ammo. So when you have 0 ammo you can use sword but only in 1st person like glaves.

2 通の返信Infamous067により編集済み: 3/7/2022 10:58:03 PMSwords cant break pvp if they don’t one shot. Honestly bungie should just move most swords to the legendary slot (leave a few on the heavy slot) and treat them like glaives. Swords will attack just a bit faster than a glaive but have less distance, they will have infinite light attacks like the glaive and the heavy attack will be a lunge attack that will take up ammo but deal the same damage as what a glaive currently does. Blocking energy can only be filled up by dealing damage so one kill in pvp will refill the sword to fully block one shotgun round or 1 sniper round for example. The blocking can only happen once and cant be stacked. If bungie could also switch swords to first person, that would be great. I would love to run around with a cyberpunk katana style animation on my warlock.

1 返信Special swords that do roughly the same damage as glaives, can’t shoot, but can block for a longer time would be cool.
