However, when you get down to no shields, a sword clash will not affect your health, though your screen will flash bright red.

In Halo 3 avoiding the sword lunge can be done by using either a [[Brute Shot]] or a [[M90 Close Assault Weapon System|Shotgun]], there is still some difficulty in pulling it off, but the odds of killing | *In ''Halo 2'' avoiding a sword lunge is extremely difficult, if timed correctly and with a bit of luck, side stepping in the direction of the enemy players free hand may save your life, however this is often difficult.
