What can I say, I always overlooked the 'Knight Blade' and rarely used it... However, in reality it is very good. I actually prefer it over the 'Energy Bayonet' now because it can be devastating to both vehicles and ground forces up close. On a side note, the BR + Knight Blade dominates at mid-long range and short range against SMG's/other automatic weapons. One shot (body or head) + melee and your opponent is sent to the respawn timer.
Old 'Knight Blade Analysis' will be deleted in a couple of days.
Until next time Spartans!
Your awsome dude so it would seem the night blade best use would be for BXRs and gun punch medals as well as maybe killing annoying gohst in the base?
+MrMastrmonstr Yes, the Knight Blade is good for what you stated but if you are looking for a 1 hit kill then Energy Bayonet is the way to go. In terms of overall Warzone usage, I personally will use the Knight Blade because for the majority of close range encounters you are still going to shoot at your enemy until they are actually in your range to melee. Factoring this in, the Knight Blade becomes more useful than the Bayonet since it also dominates vehicles with each melee. Furthermore, when Ghosts, Warthogs, etc., drive really close to you or try to splatter it's nice to know that you can thrust evade and land a damaging blow with the Knight Blade, instead of trying to hold 'x' or whatever to hijack. People should give it a chance, it's quite good - kicks ass in my opinion.
I like the old video, even if it is un-updated or wrong stats...
Aozolai whats the map called btw your awsome and one of my favorite chanels
+Toni allen "Enforcement" by me, on my Fileshare
*Sticks a guy, throws him by the leg*
"STEALTH KILL"
Captain Lackwit - It's an assassination animation silly.
Well. Yeah. I know that.
I just found it hilarious how that could even remotely be considered a stealth kill.
+Captain Lackwit That would make a great Geico commercial.
Anyone know the name and rarity of it?

So basically knight blade does more damage to vehicles while the normal bayonet blade does more damage to players.
Kiwi thats About it
rightio
Kiwi yeah
@@TheDaxter11 probably for tanks when you get up close to them they can't really do much. anything else is just stupid which kinda makes me feel that the Knight blade sucks compared to the Energy bayonet.
And the knights blade seems to be faster to go back to firing, thus being more applicable to using because most fights, even in close range, start and or end with a shot being planted firmly in someones arse, and is overall good, making a long or medium range gun useful against the gun whose never stopped pulling ghosts and especially doesn't sell them.
Am I the only bothered about the fact that we can't use the Knight energy sword?
Actually, to some extent, you could since 4.
It's a knight Assassination
Crow Bar Hoping Halo 6 comes through and brings us that. Hell, they let us use a Hunter's arm.
There's just one problem: the blade disintegrates if the Knight is killed.
It's actually made of hard light
zInsurge that would be cool if you could assasinate hunters and rip their arms off
I'd still with the energy blade. It stills kill in one hit and if I need to do vehicle damage, i'll get a laser.
Going Indie why do u Use the bayonet?
One hit kill.
Which takes no skill at all lol
Boi, you're about to get your ass roasted. Most people in a warzone in a game will use a bayonet because it's the most efficient way to get a kill. Hence why people around the end of the game will be running around with energy bayonets. Why would someone use a regular melee or a knight blade when there is a perfectly good bayonet there that will do the job faster. It would take less skillful to not pick it up.
pascal erkens Wanna know what takes no skill? The Ad Victoriam. Guess what? It's still used.
I don't really see the point as when you're this close to a vehicle you can just hijack it.
Austism there is Ai in warzon you can't highjack soooo...... I'm thinking it was more for that
jarrod costello But if you get that close to a vehicle boss to melee it, its pretty much suicide.
SirHaloFan UNSC SPARTAN 2 Some bosses have "blind spots" where it's easy to avoid them. And if your team is actually doing their job he won't only be going after you.
also if the vehicle is simply a ghost, a melee is much quicker, especially if you dont want the ghost in the first place
some players you might not want to hijack. Me for instance, I'm really good at leaving a sticky little explosive going away present for those who hijack my vehicle.
vehicle melee is so impractical
for example?
+romand271 jump on top of a wraith while its emp and melee...........why the fuck is it telling me to replace melee with some other word like I'm wrong. Fuck you auto correct........also I just realize that by the time you get the knight blade........yea....no wraith
slayer157536 its mellee isn.t it?
But so badass
Orlando Vianen no
Two things that need to be fixed about the Knight Blade:
1. Lower it to REQ 6.
2. Increase boarding melee damage.
AndroNucleus
Actually, that second one is a good idea. Probably could buff the vehicle damage a tad... a four hit kill on a warthog would be pretty nice, perhaps even ridiculous.
A Nameless Commenter I think they meant that if you have the knight blade on your equipped weapon, you do more damage to the player you have just booted out.
TmanTheTdog
That would be cool too, but I meant when you board and punch a vehicle. So on Wraiths, Scorpions, and Mantises when you don’t have a grenade, you can still punch the crap out of the vehicle until it blows up. The Knight Blade should replace punching the boarded vehicle with stabbing it repeatedly.
Or just make the boarding an instant kill
AndroNucleus or make it so you can stab into it and kill the driver
5:20 ABSOLUTELY BARBARIC!
Richard Avelino stealth kill
Xander Worle ready with the lazer
the purpose of a bayonet is to literally bring a knife to a gunfight
No, that's the purpose of the energy sword.
no thats when you want to bring a sword to a battlefield
"Bring a knife to a gunfight"
"That's what an energy SWORD is for"
FML
in close quarters with shielded elites, berserking brutes, or mobbing flood combat forms, I'll take that over standard rifles and SMGs any day.
@@22steve5150 the only reason you’d use the knights blade over the energy bayonet is for its original purpose, killing flood.
When its 1:30 in the morning but you need to know
Zeck Thats exactly me right now xD
Zeck creepy. It is 1:30 in the morning rn
Zeck its 2:58 here
Zack yep
Gotteee i7
Another cool tidbit about knight blade is that several ai enemies and bosses go through a brief stunned moment when you hit them with a knight blade, similar to when you would spartan charge it. Knights, Grunt Goblins, etc. suffer from it.
The energy bayonet is much better than the knight blade.
When yourThat close to a vehicle you might aswell board it, it's more effective than swinging a knight blade at it.
Knight blade helps against AI vehicles which cannot be boarded
+Luke Yin attacking an ai vehicle like that is a suicide mission. Her to avoid damage up close to one. Even if you avoid everything, you are really vounrable to the enemy when attacking the vehicle. Better to get kinetic bolts and attack from the distance.
@@lukeyin7164 the only vehicle I can see this Blade being use up against tanks, it sound good on paper but in execution its nearly impossible without dying.
I like me some discount energy sword
can I haz reconz 7 That's what the knight blade is. Don't use it unless you want to... melee vehicles... the knight blade is trash.
Atleast it's cheaper and can be mounted to your favorite gun
Unless that gun can't accept blade mounts...
Spartan War118 I just want an bayonet on the classic BR
READ ME PLS XD
here comes mi suggestion again:
It will be great if you analyze the assassinations.
Maybe checking:
-time to kill(this could help, once the spartan stab the knife even if you get kill during the animation, it counts as a kill)
-the assassination with less probabilities to get reck during the animation
-And your final opinion or result, deciding the best of all
I REALLY HOPE YOU READ THIS COMMENT THATS WHY I´M USING MAYUS...
I know "104 Ways To Die" has the fastest TTK standing at 19frames to Kill b4 the Animation finishes, But that's as much as I know.
If assassination time to kill is a concern, just buttstroke them in the back of the head. Don't go for an assassination if you don't have time for it. There's actually no advantage.
@@Greane looking cool and humiliating your enemy is always an advantage
Love this Titanfall 2 gameplay
I am quite sure this call of duty AW
Dylan Cunningham
No, you fool, it's Destiny Two for the Pc.
not even dumbass we all know its battlefiled 2047
BlueJayFrosty dumb fuck it’s red dead redemption 2
5:21 That's quite something to walk in on.
5:26 i love how the spartan says 'stealth kill' then proceeds to use supernova, the less stealthy assassination in halo lol.
I don't really see the point of it. I'm usually going to get the headshot after the melee so getting 1 bodyshot vs 1 headshot isn't enough difference to use the attachment.
Not everyone has aimbot built into their muscles
the fact that its not a one hit makes the bayonet a lot better and renders the knight blade useless
You couldn't be more wrong, I hope you watched the entire video because knight blade is not useless, you only have to shoot them once and then strike, and bayonet doesn't one shot if they have upgraded shields, knight blade shreds vehicles doing over 3 times the damage of a standard melee attack, and has farther lunge range, also it incinerates people when you kill them with it which is very satisfying
Solarwolf13 the idea of getting up close is to get the job done, which one, one hit kill or one hit and a couple bullets kill? In a combat situation there is no time for that considering that you might be outnumbered, or the person you hit has a strong gun sense half of halo 5’s community is lev 100’s including me. Knight blade is shit.
Solarwolf13 and what will the Knight blade do when they have upgraded shields? I'm almost positive still less than the energy bayonet
If the Knight blade did oneshot spartans, then the bayonet would be useless.
@@solarwolf1336 Nigga, you yourself couldn't be more wrong.
My analysis - pretty useful when a ghost gets into the core room, but who ever gets close enough to melee a vehicle enough times that you'd give up a one-shot melee?
i found this channel recently and love all the content, keep it up man :)
Nice, expect more analysis videos and occasional BS videos ;)
Is the time between hitting a spartan and hitting again, faster with the knight blade or the energy bayonet?
its the same
Broccoli_Assasin Thanks for the reply
It's use is pointless. One can achieve greater damage with energy bayonet and good hijacking skills.
correct me if I'm wrong, but when you use camo with a knight blade weapon, I believe you can still see the blade. I swear I even saw a camo Spartan with a knight blade weapon even on his back.
Vu Ho i think so too
I don't understand the point of the Knight Blade. IF you're that close to a vehicle then why not just board it? It has no point.
***** No but you shouldn't be meleeing bosses anyway.
JJAB91 What if you don't want the vehicle at all, aren't well trained with it, or if it is far too damaged already?
JTMAN X ...you get out of it?
to give it to the enemy again?
Orlando Vianen If its that weak then its a free kill when they get in it.
I have always found it to be particularly gratifying in a sci-fi franchise when humans reverse engineer alien technology to devastating effect. I sincerely mean it when I stare that it NEVER gets old.
as long a 343 keeps feeding updates, you won't ever be out of a job. another great video. thanks!
Well i guess he's out of a job now..
Please do an analysis on what damage boost actually does. (How much does it increase your damage,so forth)
I would say hood but not awsome... maybe if they put its req cost down..
I personally prefer energy bayonet just because with the dmr it's really deadly.
5:21, I appreciate that
*fucking throws spartan into wall by his foot*
"Stealth kill!"
Gotta love that Halo 5 logic.
Knight blade looks badass, il say that, however in my experience with how i tend to play warzone and the loadout i commonly use (COG smg with bayonet + sentinel DMR with lazer targeter and 'upgraded sensors') the knight blade is extremely impractical, because my luck tends to put me in situations where im being shot at immediately after i make my first move (because im usually a guy attacking bases and most times i take point by putting on an oversheild to allow my teamates to storm in behind me) because of this, while the knight blade is extremely cool ans likely good for boss kills, its practicality as a close quarters anti- spartan weapon is outclassed by its cousin the bayonet.
The best halo analysis videos!
If I may be so bold as to make a suggestion: there are modded versions of the warzone maps and mode that can be downloaded via fileshare and booted up in forge. As it’s technically a “forge” game, the cap is limited to 8 people. BUT there are also variations for the modes that allow for custom game options. So long as you have the proper friends and materials, you’d have a unique chance to test Mechanics and equipment in a “mostly” safe fashion, with the full breadth of you warzone stock *and* custom game options.
It's blades of promethean knights, and covenant energy swords for guns?
I got phaetons and the classic br with bayonett. That was my best req pack.
Not convinced- energy bayonet outperforms knight blade at melee, and quite frankly if you're that close to a vehicle you should be boarding it! Also your blade was still flickering while under camo, surely that could give you away?
It's more for "light" vehicles like that ghost and warthog, but for other things, yea, it would be better to board it
It's generally pretty tough to stand next to either of those and melee it 4-6 times without getting shot/splattered!
Not particulary. i jump and melee the gunners out of warthog turrents regularly. You can do the same to ghosts in one hit.
Bosscroft Just wondering if any of you know how to actually equip one of them in warzone, I can5 figure it out.
It's more for the benefit of Warzone, since you can't hijack AI enemies. And AI enemies with vehicles are dicks.
I wish 343 made weapons with both Kinetic bolts and bayonets/Knight Blades
Christian Emerson like an ultimate weapon?
4:08 must... Get...ASSASSINATION...
if only bayonet didnt exist
ur comment Made my day
just got 40 kills with it
Dude, I love this channel. You guys do some bang up work. Subbed.
5:11 why did you hit him again chill out he’s dead 💀
You can never be too dead
He was stupid enough to just run straight at the guy with a knight blade spraying and praying. Newbie should be glad he only got extra melee'd. I mean seriously you see a guy wipe the floor with 2-3 other teamates it wouldn't be wise to run in at them especially when the knight blade is very visable ans you could just wait for backup.
@@francisharkins lmao chill tf out. The guy didnt even see him kill the first one. Also, he wasnt "spraying and praying" at him. He was just shooting normally. Fucking cringey af when you unironically use the word newbie
Monochrome
It is, and besides Francis, do you want to be teabaged? Yeah, I prefer getting my corpse smash than getting teabaged
I like how at the very end of the video, a teammate literally so long gay bowsers an enemy spartan.
I quit halo ages ago but now I might go back on it
So it has it's ups and down to damage that's what I like about halo everything is balanced nicely unlike a lot of games
i love knight blade... my 2 favorite loadout combo's are knight blade BR with either fusion bolt SMG or COG scope DMR
Knight blade takes half health all shields
(Knights arm) Knight arm blade kills you
Energy Bayonet. Always. A secondary energy sword that never runs out.
the best set is advanced sensors + Silenced Br and Smg. trust me you will get tons of assasinations and you can capture bases all by yourself.
i think its just a way to expand the req system, i mean.......u have bayonet 4 mellee insta kills, u can board vehicles when that close and with wz bosses u will get splattered when they turn around without even without driving into ya.....not even talking about the hundreds of minions that kill ya in a few plasma pistol shots(and a bayonet isnt even an instakill)
But does spartan charge affect vehicled more with the knight sword equiped? Also, does the bayonet do the same damagr as an energy sword?
upgraded shields is so op
The Spartan32 That's why it's req 6 now.
i know so glad they did that
Was it only me who noticed that amazing plasma assassination
1:26
BR: aight imma head out
I've been playing this game since the release and I had no idea these existed in the game....
You didn't go over whether or not it alters charge damage. I was hoping that with increased strength and knight bayonet it might be insta kill.
Can you do a comparison to all the plasma based weapons? Storm rifles, Plasma pistols, Plasma Rifles. And req variants.
Still prefer the energy bayonet, when do you go out and melee vehicles?
When do you not just go out and punch that tank repeatedly?
This would be pretty nice in Warzone firefight actually, thanks man
This was back when the BR was laser perfect and fun to use.
Havent played H5 in like 2 years, they fucked the BR that badly?
I feel like I’m watching a Knight blade informercial.
What if it was combined with the Increased Strength armor mod in Warzone? How much more effective is it?
I miss all of this
Pretty much energy sword attached to ur gun
That’s awesome
I prefer the Energy Bayonet, because I roll with Advanced Sensors, I sneak behind and 1-shot everyone. But, the Knight-Blade disintegrates people, so I like that aspect of it. If only the Bayonet had a unique kill-animation like that...
you have let me enjoy the knight blade, I will use it more often.
Id use the knight blade if it was put on a long range and sentinel br scope but it's not so I always use an energetic bayonet
I know it's an energy based blade, but it would be more satisfying to see a stab than a slash.
I like the energy blade for how much sleeker it looks and the more dmg to players than vehicles.
3:03 I'm not even gonna lie, but that actually scared the living heck outta me
A fucking car explosion only lowers the spartan shield to a quarter of is max capacity, but a punch from another spartan just deplete them completely.
Makes you wonder about the raw force this super soldier just have...
I hope armor actually has shaders in halo6
I haven't been on bawling since but I'm pretty sure it's not a one hit like the normal energy blade
Great job as usual! How about a shotgun(s) analysis?
Just got knight blade on my BR, yay random drop chances!
Great video
Tartarus gravel with over shield speed boost is good too
Could I say that I earned my Mark 6 gen1 and scarred armors, because I had to complete a mission in halo 2
Why don’t they make bigger guns for Spartans. They are augmented to be stronger and faster. It just makes more sense.
Love the assassination respect 👍
I wish the when you had either blade and you did a spartan charge you would instead will do a bayonet charge
So... Covenants have the Energy Swords and the Gravity Hammer.
I guess these counts for the UNSC.
Actually the knight blade screams forerunner to me, 343's forerunner...
I agree with UberNick. Blades/bayonets are OP and unfair. Spartan charge too. The ground pound mechanic defies scientific reality, and the slide is cheesy too. I really hope 343 does a "back to basics" approach to Infinite, but their track record is very inconsistent.
A bayonet in Halo, FINALLY
Honestly though, when you're a beefed up super soldier, do you really even need a blade to kill?
I prefer a giant hammer, i'm talking Krogan Warlord hammer (If you played Mass Effect 3's multiplayer before)
The kind of stuff you put holes in tanks with kind of hammer
The Knight blade is awesome, but it will never beat the energy bayonet if there are no shield boosting factors involved. Maybe if the knight blade was unlocked at an earlier REQ level, say 5 or even 6, then it would be really awesome
No body in war zone normally has upgraded shields now so.... Energy bayonet will be on my gun.
Knight blade = Monte Carlo from Destiny.
No offense but using the bayonet makes me feel so cheap.
Maybe I'd use the Knight blade for having a little advantage without feeling so bad with myself.
Carlos Bojorges You can't help people aren't going to be smart and use upgraded shields, or do anything to counter you bud 😊
Its so tedious to get to Req lvl 8 like it serves no shooting advantage in term and rare occassion of cqc
nice analysis, but in my mind it's still one of, if not the most useless attachment by req level we ever got.
I thought it had a redeeming quality in that it can stun the goblin, but I've seen the bayonet and even normal melee do that. Honestly, its main draw is acting as a can opener on the lighter lower req vehicles, but how often is there a warthog or gungoose once the tanks, wasps, and banshees come out?
Why poke an enemy scorpion in the treads when you can just shove a grenade up the tail pipe?
And in terms of AI vehicles, you have kinetic bolts that can be fired from a relative safe position, and accessed much earlier and more often, yeah?
Sooo, yeah, for its req level, pretty useless.
In what situation would the vehicle damage be appropriate in?
Creo que la última partida de warzone la jugaste con migo creó que me vi :v
Ay that's my emblem🤘
beyonet all the way
I like that halo 2 battlerifle
hard to unlock tho
I'd use damage weapons bro
Do an analysis on about h2 and h5 beam rifle
The knight blade got me killed a lot before I realized it wasn't on par with the bayonet
fixed bayonets, imperial guards amany rejoice and fucking finally
I don't understand why you would melee a vehicle though. If you're close enough to melee it, you're close enough to hijack it.
at 3:54 that is not knight blade game play, it's called a Halo 1 pistol.
Nathan Hong It's actually called a M6D Personal Defense Weapon System, but.... eh...
meh
Dose a Bayonette render the sword obsolete? Or not due to price difference?
