It’s explained in the update. Link

> TL;DR: The Energy Sword itself isn’t really changing at all. Instead, a new variant (the “Relic Sword”) is being added that removes the 20% movement speed and increases the “snappiness” of readying and switching to/from the new sword.

It also doesn’t replace the campaign or Warzone sword variants.

Why would they do that? It’s not intended to be a REQ variant of the Energy Sword. All it does is replace the Energy Sword originally implemented in matchmaking.

They gave it a name as if it is a new weapon

Because it is a new weapon. They needed a name to distinguish it from the original version of the Sword when used in Forge and whenever else necessary.

Well they could have made it sound less like a NEW bada** req and more like something in the game

I think ‘relic’ is fitting considering it has no speed bonuses like the older Halo games.

I dont care what it is, as long as it does what a sword does.
