Lightblade

Template:Weapon Infobox The hardlight blade is a Forerunner melee weapon.^[1] It is affixed to the Promethean Knights of Requiem.

Gameplay

The blade performs similar to an Energy Sword in that it can strip away energy shields with relative ease. The blade is unwieldable to players as the weapon disintegrates immediately after the Knights are defeated. However, it is usable by players when they are assassinating a Knight.
