Never ever has a sword been so OP before. I’ve never worried about a sword carrier in a halo game before. seems like I get charged by a sword carrier and killed at least 2-4 times a game with sword maps. That’s disgusting. Halo is supposed to be about skill…sword takes no skill. If you try to tell me sword takes skill, you’re a idiot. I pick it up and get the easiest triple kills. It’s the lamest -Yoink- ever.
Sprint already gives it the advantage (as a guy backpedaling and shooting can’t escape), but sprint combined with a speed bonus is just…what were you thinking guys?
Yes, it should be nerfed.
i think it’s the prophets bane that gives you the speed boost.
I don’t think the sword needs a speed boost so that should be gotten rid of but I do think that it takes a certain amount of skill and situation awareness. It is however pretty easy to counter especially with the dash feature so in that way I think it’s balanced.
It’s just the prophets bane that gives you the speed boost. Id say give them weaker shields with the prophets bane since they get a speed boost. You can argue that the glow and size of it already gives a disadvantage but the fact they can run faster and just get you is a bit OP.
Use thrusters - It’s a power weapon, but not unbeatable.
