The idiocy of the Buster sword

You can't cheese a win in this mode because the sword is so overpowered! Whole squads running with this weopon that can magicaly block any bullet, no matter if you aim at the feet or head of the char...

People carrying the sword make no sound at all, they just appear behind you ... and you're dead, the reach of the sword is also not predictable , feels like getting hit while being "miles" away.
It just feels like this item wasn't tested at all.

This is my experience. No footsteps when sword wielding?

I hit someone who seemed miles away.

That being said it feels near impossible to kill these people. Tho I've not yet managed to figure out how to use it. I seem to get killed just as easy wielding it.

      @Asmodeus566 I can now confirm 100% that players are jumping with the Buster sword equiped. I landed and was killed by Valkery within 2 seconds and now I just played a game with a Wraith. (Recorded) who landed with the sword equiped.

      Please tell me how this is fair?

        @i-NormI explained how they get it on jump in the other thread from the ship, and I agree, it still isn't fair.

        That said, I got the sword in a match just now and was so excited since I heard how broken it is. The block feature did nothing to shield me from bullets, I still died in 2 hits. Also, when I used it on the enemy the sword went right through them, doing no damage at all. I'm wondering if the people using it the way described here aren't cheating or exploiting a glitch, or if it glitched when I had it since it was worthless when I tried using it.

      @hayhor I did end up slapping up a good few people in one game with it did a 1 v 3 and Eliminated 2. Dropped two of them at once I believe.
