So I was screwing around on patrol in Venus. At one point, just to see if it would work, I hit an goblin with just the handle of the sword, as I had no Heavy ammo. Turns out, the handle one-shorted the goblin.
Then, I tried it in crucible, and it takes 2 hits with the handle to kill (though it doesn't have very good range).
I'm not sure why this works, or even if it's supposed to work, but it's AWESOME. Is there any more humiliating way to get killed than with just the handle of a sword? Rhetorical question: the answer is no.
Also, I don't have video of this, just try it yourself.[spoiler]P.S. To everyone I killed by this method 3 minutes into the game, please don't report me[/spoiler] Edit: Apparently this is intentional. IDGAF, I still like it.
