-Glaives are a fun way to entering melee combat without being stuck to no action within the time it takes to join action, no problems here : you can shoot or do shield then melee. Nice ! -If you have the good inclination, you can block most direct hits even at point-blank, but not AOE at your feet. OK ! Now comes the problems : 1) This weapon's design for melee AND range, but you can only make orbs on range, but with the amount of munitions you have it's not viable to think of making orbs in enough amount to forget about that and melee to your heart content ! (we DO understand about ammo economies/balance, but melee kills without orbs equal too much trouble for most people when you only need to shoot with whatever else and make orbs without risk !) 2) When you use a sword, the point of view of the character change, and it's an REALLY important point, why ? Because you need an off-center view to see conveniently what the opponent is doing ! When I'm fighting with a glaive a medium to big target at point-blank like a knight or an ogre of the hive, 50% of those times I'm not sure about block or attack because the target take all my window and I don't even understand what I'm looking at !!! Destiny 2 is great and fun, but the frustration I'm feeling when I see and want to use something different and innovative like the glaive in HARD content, but it's more pain than fun, make this beautiful archetype mostly usable on early game or if I was a hardcore gamer, but most of your everyday players are like myself, we enjoy having a good time, and we WANT to spend even more time to play the game, but after work I'm tired and can't be at 150% just to make the glaive work so PLEASE : Help us to continue enjoying the time on destiny 2 and give the glaive who I love a lot an easier time to use... PLEASE ! And THANKS !
