Please make Throwing Hammer recharge on pickup with a sword equipped

On Sunbreaker Titan, if you throw a melee hammer, then switch to a sword before picking it up, your melee charge is eaten, and you instead have to wait for the entire melee cooldown duration to get your hammer back. I believe I understand [i]why[/i] it works this way, but I don't believe it [i]should[/i] work this way. I posted about this in the issues forum and was told it was "intended behavior." I disagree that this is what was intended. For example, the description text says, "Throw a hammer from a distance. After throwing it, picking up the hammer fully recharges your melee ability." It does not say all that plus, "so long as you don't have a sword equipped." If I throw the hammer, switch to a sword, and pickup the hammer, my melee should be charged when I swap away from the sword. I posted a link to a video of the current behavior above.

    I actually think this is a bit bigger than just the hammer recharge. Unless I'm mistaken, your Melee charge gets fully frozen while your sword is out, and sword charge freezes when it's stowed. I think it's because the sword charge meter replaces the melee one while wielded. I would absolutely LOVE if they fixed it so they could both recharge, i.e. swords recharge when stowed and melee recharges when sword it out

  • Picking up the hammer should stop recharging melee energy and instead reward players with a free 12 pack of Honeysticks Pure Beezwax Crayons, there are multiple flavours that you and your friends can collect today!

      • Ju[b]s[/b]t don't hold [b]a[/b] sword? Titans are OP enough, [b]t[/b]his doesn't need a fix as there are more [b]i[/b]mportant issues, like when a Hunte[b]r[/b] holds a sword and us[b]e[/b]s the Gambler's Dodge, the melee bar doesn't refill. Fix that first Bungie, [b]lol[/b].

          • They stealth patched gamblers dodge and bulwark finisher not working while wielding a sword. Sucks to hear that this is still a problem.

          • Agreed. Sucks when I go for a crown splitter slam after hitting a champion with my hammer

          • Not a Titan main so I wouldn’t know, does it recharge the sword’s energy? If so that opens up room for a lot of builds. You could throw a hammer, and essentially get a double heavy attack back to back.
