+'''Silhouette Sword''' is a rendering [[glitch]] that affects the [[Energy Sword]] in ''[[Halo 2]]'' and ''[[Halo 3]]''. The glitch renders the Energy Sword invisible, save for the faint shimmer that usually envelops it.
-'''Silhouette Sword''' is a [[glitch]] that can be done with an [[Energy Sword]]. This glitch gives the player no tactical advantages, but is for the pure amusement of the eye.
-==[[Halo 2]]==
+==Walkthrough==
+===''Halo 2''===
 To perform the glitch, follow these steps.
-#Obtain the [[Halo 2 Skulls#Blind|Blind]] [[Skull]] to use its effect.
+#Obtain the [[Halo 2 skulls#Blind|Blind]] [[Skull]] to use its effect.
 #Obtain an Energy Sword.

-#Why can't you have two swords in the game?
-==[[Halo 3]]==
+===''Halo 3''===
 To perform the glitch, follow these steps.
-#Obtain an [[Energy Sword]] (must have at least some ammo in it) and at least one other secondary weapon.
+#Obtain a usable Energy Sword and a secondary weapon.
-#Execute the ''[[Cease-fire]]'' trick on your secondary weapon.
+#Execute the [[alert carry]] trick on your secondary weapon.
-#Switch back to your [[Energy Sword]].

 ==Effect==
-If performed correctly, on the player’s screen only, the [[Energy Sword| Energy Sword’s]] basic image will be replaced by a ghostly, active aura. In Halo 3, when attacking any target that does not make the sword’s reticule to turn red (inanimate objects, allies, etc.), the sword will materialize, but the swiping animation of the sword on the player’s screen will be canceled. It's hilarious to attack allies with this trick to watch them just mysteriously "drop dead".

+Usually, a faint shimmer can be seen with the Sword. The glitch causes the Sword to vanish, but leaves the shimmer untouched.
