swords
All swords have been modified to make them more effective and efficient in combat. They are now measured by the following stats: Impact, Rotation Speed, Charge Rate, Guard Resistance, Guard Effectiveness, Guard Stamina, Ammo Capacity, and Energy.
Énergie
- When wielded, a sword's energy meter replaces a player's melee ability
- A sword's energy can now be consumed by various sword-related actions and naturally recovers on its own
attacks
- A player's glider ability can no longer be activated during sword attacks or other melee attacks.
- Light attacks
- Light Attack Ropes on all sword sub-archetypes can now be looped endlessly
- Light attacks for all sub-archetypes can now cut to hit multiple enemies
- Heavy attacks
- Heavy attacks now consume sword energy to varying degrees, depending on the type of sword and attack used
- Full energy produces the strongest heavy attacks
Guard
- Protection now consumes sword energy rather than ammo, but a minimum of 1 ammo is required to use this ability
- Some of the damage from sword attacks can now bypass elemental shields to strike a target directly
- There are exceptions to this ability, such as with sword-generated projectile attacks.
Advantages of the sword
- Whirling blade will end if the player using it starts guarding, and multi-hit attacks now only count as a single hit
- En garde damage bonus is now reduced from + 50% to + 30%
- Lame explosive damage bonus is now reduced from 3x to around 1,67x.
- Energy transfer now gains less energy than before because the guardian no longer consumes ammo
- Counter attack its activation requirements have been changed so that blocking an attack immediately after protection increases damage for a short duration of 2 seconds, which has been reduced by 5 seconds
