Energy sword (fiction): Difference between revisions

Line 78:

*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.

*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. However, the cutting process ''Does'' drain battery power. Although, any weapon's melee attack can be used to destroy combat form corpses if used enough times, even a depleted Energy Sword hilt.

*In ''Halo 3'' the Energy Sword is very hard to come by in the campaign outside of [[Floodgate]], [[Cortana (Level)|Cortana]], and [[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|Halo]]. The player can obtain an Energy Sword by betraying an Elite ally on [[The Covenant (Level)|The Covenant]] by sticking him with a grenade (if Mythic is turned on, the Elite can survive a Plasma Grenade and you can take his Energy Sword) or by draining Arbiter's shield during combat (this happens more frequently on higher difficulties). If you do, it is a very good weapon against Brutes, although the battery will deplete very quickly.
