Swords, Swords, Swords
Will there be usuable swords in Destiny?
The Fallen obviously use swords, but can Guardians wield them too?
Bungie has had much experience with this majestic murder machine, from their steel arsenals in Myth to the burning plasma swords of Halo. Will Destiny be void of such a dynamic in melee, or will it stick to its fists, knives, and "space magic push attack?"
Discuss.
EDIT: Grammar, indubitably
EDIT: Somebody pick up that phone, cuz I mother-blam!-ing caaaaalllled it!

7 RepliesI do believe, and hope, that destiny will have swords in it. There have been a couple of hints by deej that this is the case. Anyway I think that if swords really are in destiny, that they would be an individual weapon assigned to the special slot. I can't see them in the primary or heavy slots for two reasons 1 swords probably wouldn't be reliable enough to be placed in the primary slot. You couldn't run around with a sword while everyone else is brandishing a rifle, you would get shot full of bullets. 2 I dont think that swords would be able to put out the high amount of damage that the heavy slot is meant for, and if they did, having a weapon that doesn't need ammo do as much damage ad a heavy weapon is kind of op imo So I can only see swords realistically being placed in the special slot, as a cqc weapon for special situations, much like a shotgun but with shorter range and more damage. All the weapons in the special slot have their merits on certain situations, and if swords do exist I think this is where they will be placed. A sword would be useful if I were being swarmed by thralls
