Energy sword (fiction): Difference between revisions

Line 76:

*In ''Halo 2'' the sword is extremely valuable against Elites in campaign. When facing sword-wielding Elites a sound tactic is to jump and lunge attack them. This will kill them quickly and save your shields or your life on higher difficulties.

*In both ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'', the Energy Sword is the best anti-[[Flood]] ~~weapon~~, as it will destroy Flood Combat Forms in one strike (although if an [[Combat Form|infected Elite]] still has its shield, it may take two swipes, depending on the difficulty setting).

*In both ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'', the Energy Sword is one of the best anti-[[Flood]] weapons, as it will destroy Flood Combat Forms in one strike (although if an [[Combat Form|infected Elite]] still has its shield, it may take two swipes, depending on the difficulty setting).

*When fighting against the Flood, an attack with the Energy Sword will deplete the battery by a very small amount (about 3%) due to their soft tissue, making it useful for extended durations.

*The Energy Sword in ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'' can be used to destroy the corpses of [[Flood]] [[Combat Form]]s so that they cannot be re-infected by [[Infection Form]]s. The cutting process does not drain battery power. However, any weapon's melee attack can be used to destroy combat form corpses if used enough times, even a depleted Energy Sword hilt.
