    Swords

    So I see new swords in the upcoming DLC. Does this mean we will be able to finally level up swords? It's the only thing that stops me from using my sword more.

    I don't use it because I purchased a tpS. Emphasis on the "shooter" part.

    Swords were in Halo 2, one of the bigger shooters I can think of from my own gaming past. Aaaand I loved them.

    I'm not big on guns actually, though Defiance has an interesting variety, I still prefer to play with my Charge Blade while I wait for the katana.

    We don't know yet if we're getting a Blade skill-line, but I am crossing my fingers. :]

    He makes a valid point here, they had a blade on borderlands 2, on gta, and so many more so yeah it's a welcomed addition.

    I would hope so, but I wouldn't hold my breath. They made no mention of a skill line with this DLC. They also said we were getting a new charge blade type, yet the blade the screenshots show is a metal blade. /shrug

    Who knows anymore.

    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?

    I think swords are a bit niche in this game, they are fun to play around with and look cool, but for serious use they aren't up to much, perks and skills do not add enough to be serious.

    And if they did make swords great i fear we'd have another Surge Bolter fiasco on our hands..

    I would rather that at least I could shoot them. Surge bolter are impossible to get past in pvp. I have one but I only use it for sieges and pve.
