I decided to help my usual fireteam cut the time it takes to find a hunter swordy on lfg by finally developing mine. I would like to know from those who regularly wield the ultimate relic what exotic armor I should really try to obtain? Does it really matter, or is there one specific piece that will make me more potent via longer invisiblity or something along those lines. Any help is greatly appreciated!
PS: before anybody says something, I know you don't have to be a hunter, but I'm not THAT good with my warlocks to dethrone crota on hard. Save your "get gud" comments, I realize I need to.

Try to get raid gloves with increased melee speed perk also, people say it makes a difference with the sword swings.
-
Your exotic doesn't matter make sure you have vanish and shadow jack plus blink strike invis. Use your special before the swordbearer goes down and use vanish right before you pick up the sword jump up make sure you blink strike before he stands up and away you go

Edited by MAVERICK-MP: 3/1/2015 5:09:32 AMI wear my don't touch me's almost exclusively now. My raid helmet has the orb/health perk though. I also have third man, that would also work fine.
-
Mask of third man, gally or red death are the only ones worth equipping but none are required to be honest
-
Mask of the Third Man is really good for bladedancers because it has orb healing and makes bladedancer last a lot longer. Don't Touch Me is great also. Gunslinger isn't relevant to this discussion of the sword, but in general you should also try to pick up achlyophage symbiote. It's a great helmet.

Anything that boosts intellect for your super (activate it on the way to pick up the sword, trigger invisibility via that, and you save a little time without crouching) or strength for your blink strike (to stay near Crota safely between kneels). Personally I use Crest of Alpha Lupi due to mine's massive strength boost, and my raid/iron banner gear gives me good enough intellect for the first option. However if you don't have a weapon to heal yourself, keep an eye out for Mask of the Third Man so you can heal by picking up orbs. Gives a neat intellect boost, and the melee attack speed increase might make difference-haven't noticed myself.

Mask, but if you have Red death it really doesn't matter.
-
I always run with Mask of the Third Man.
-
Mask of third man with max out agility except fleet footed use shadowjack instead
-
mask of third mad because it lets you regen health by picking up orbs
