If yous've been a fan of Destiny 2 for a while, you lot'll know that at that place is no shortage of exploits and tricks that skilled players apply to get an reward over others. I that comes and goes, depending on the updates that Bungie makes to the mechanics of the game, is sword skating.

This mechanic is using the lunge power that many swords have in the game to propel your character across the battlefield. The ability moves you a limited distance, but there are some moves and rolls that y'all tin combine to brand it more than useful.

By combining the Half-Truths sword from the Bungie 30thursday Ceremony celebration event — a articulate homage to the Energy Sword from Halo — with the Eager Edge trait, players tin can once once again zoom beyond the battleground with reckless abandon. Here is how:

The Eager Edge trait gives players a cursory window when lunge altitude is greatly increased in the moments later on they switch to the weapon. That means that players just demand to switch to their Half-Truths sword with the Eager Border trait, then jump and make a low-cal attack to lunge frontward. They will then exist launched forward a considerable distance. During the animation, apace switch back to a different weapon. You will go along all your momentum from the lunge while gliding beyond the loonshit. Information technology can exist tough to get the timing downwards on this and it might be tough to control yourself while you're moving but it will make you move around the battlefield much faster.

We're non sure if this is an intended characteristic of the weapon or an exploit that volition be patched out soon, so be sure to get your sword skating fix while you lot can.
