With the influx of new emotes, and six different swords, there really isn't a reason not to have a Swords only crucible match. No supers, grenades or melees. All guns are barred, unlimited sword energy.
I mean, think about it, you see a guy 50 feet away, you both bow, and then commence an epic duel. Sword logic. Not only would this be a nice change from the tedium and repetition of the same game modes with smaller teams or flags, but it would give you the chance to test your skills in sword combat.
Come on, try to tell me it wouldn't be cool to do the "bring it on" emote and then enter combat with another guardian.
We need a different type of game mode, and this one would be fun and refreshing.
[spoiler]And I'm not the first to think of this. I just want to stress the point that WE NEED THIS IN OUR LIVES. Thank you for your time.[/spoiler]

[b][i][u]Gameplay, and rules[/u][/i][/b]
-Players spawn with swords
-No other weapons would be available.
-No grenades or special melees. Class perks would be granted.
-All swords would be permitted
-Blocking on swords would be buffed so that it could stop anything.
-If hit with enough force while blocking the player will stagger
-Swords have unlimited ammo
-Players health is buffed so they can take two hits from a sword.
-When a player has their super, they may activate their exotic swords ability. After the use, the sword will not be able to use the ability again until their super has recharged
-Super energy is obtained quicker
-Legendary swords can ground pound as their super(small fist of havoc strike)
-Killing an enemy will recharge your health, as to set you on equal grounds with your next foe

Merely a flesh wound!-same as narrow escape but for sword only matches

Not everyone is a hunter.
-
You can't block Bolt-Caster's ranged attack, even with an exotic sword.
-
I'm pretty sure swords clash. Like if two people swing at one another simultaneously the swords hit each other
-
This would be better then pretty much anything already existing in the game
-
I think a duel option in PvE would be better :P your rules!
-
That sounds like a good concept. I think it might work best to keep it super simple though. Think more of a [i]Guardians[/i] meets [i]Grifball[/i], IMO. Best part about it that we already know that game mode is both popular and works. You could call it [b]Bombs & Blades[/b] or something. That would be the bees knees.

The tower NEEDS a Duel Arena, I played a game called Warframe, some of you might know it. A small open space for 1v1 duels. Imagine that with swords in Destiny. Bruh.
-
Sounds fun. Also, a lot of people seem to lack reading comprehension in this topic.
-
-
Everyone should start with 30 on their swords and when heavy ammo spawns it should be a full sword
-
I made a forum post like this, think of a 6v6 phalanx formation

Yes, except we should buff the armor even more so you can take multiple hits, maybe like 4 or 5? That would make duels more interesting
-
I feel like unlimited ammo would be awful because everybody would run the arc exotic and sniper
-
Tes!!!
-
Bruh...
-
Sounds fun, but inb4 "bolt caster op PLZ nurf"
-
-
"Epic duel" OHK's.
-
How about you fight with the hilts until heavy spawns, no supers.

The concept: [spoiler]The first time you play a match, and win, lord Shaxx will give you a bounty, telling you to do the things you've labeled as exotic. Once you complete them a cutscene will play as you enter the tower, of three legendary sword masters. One is an exo, dressed completely in black, face completely white, named reaper-00. The second is a awoken, face of jade, and samurai styled gear. The last is a man styled as a barbarian, or a raider, mohawk and armour. From each you'd get a different weapon:[/spoiler] #1: (Reaper-00) [spoiler]weapon name: Death's Raiper. [i]the reason we know the grim reaper is because of bad translation. It originally referred to a sword, wielded be the devil himself.[/i] Fast slices, low damage, poor block. Exotic perk: Pierces enemy over-shields and blocks.[/spoiler] #2: (Kansu vorosu) [spoiler]weapon: Dragons bane.[/spoiler] WIP
