Okay before I run into any [b]"too much damage"[/b] arguments, I want to say that the powerful swords, like [b]the exotic swords and the more hard-hitting legendary swords like crown splitter should stay in the heavy slot. [/b]
BUT, the other [b]swords like Future Safe 10, or Unspoken Promise should be either special or kinetic weapons. [/b]
As of now, the swords in the game feel lack-luster because 90% of the time, players have to resort to hiding around the corner in PvP because it's difficult to rush someone as opposed to using a gun, making the heavy ammo grab almost pointless (unless you're using Black Talon or World Line Zero).
[b]But wouldn't that just cause players to hide around the corner MORE???[/b]
Well, yes, BUT, shotguns still exist and players hide around corners with those too! So, I don't see it as a huge problem, but rather a problem on the same level of shotguns. It shouldn't cause too much of a mess.
[b] Okay, but what about damage balancing? [/b]
Ahh, yes, that would be a concern since swords do "Heavy damage".
I would propose a nerf to swords that leave the heavy slot, I mean why not? Personally, I feel that [b]legendary swords are pretty much just shotguns or snipers with zero range. The only huge difference is that ammo is more scarce for swords. [/b]
Those are the only points I can think of off the top of my head, I'd like to know what you guys think, and what you believe should be changed about swords to make them more worthy of regular use. Thanks for reading.

If you’re looking for a close range one shot kill weapon, it’s called a [b]Shotgun[/b]. You’re welcome.

Only if they take off third person to prevent corner camping. If you want to do that, take your heavy slot.
-
hmm i think they make more sense to be heavy, but improve blocking swing and movement speeds i think someone has posted this before
-
Swords can kill Riven? Why would they be a special when they're do well as a heavy right now??

Editado por Wraith: 1/26/2020 10:23:07 PMDefinitely a no it would be way too broken in pvp for invisible hunters with quickfang.
-
Yes for PVE, but I’m not sure about PVP...
-
I think maybe one day we should get an exotic special ammo sword. Have them all as special? No. I don’t think it’d be that easy. Our best chance of having something move slots is going to be linear fusions

username checks out btw

Not all of them. Either introduce a archetype of swords that does less damage but takes special ammo, or have it as an exotic.
-
Changing them to any other slot would hurt their damage output since they'd need to be calibrated to whatever ammo type it changes to.
