Hello, fellow guardians! Today, we are diving deep into the world of Destiny 2 to unravel the mysteries surrounding the best swords to wield in your battle against Crota, the final boss in the reprised Crota’s End raid. This guide is here to settle the debate once and for all, offering you a detailed Destiny 2 swords tier list that will help you achieve that one-phase kill on Crota. So, grab your Crota’s sword and let’s get started!
TABLE OF CONTENTS
How Was it Tested?
Before we delve into the results, it is essential to understand the testing parameters. The team engaged Crota with different swords, comparing damage numbers after each round to identify patterns and consistent performers. One of the swords was always the Lament, this is the one all others were compared against. The focus was on raw sword damage, excluding surges and other enhancements to maintain a level playing field. It took many tries, because the final boss is insanely slippery and mobile making it difficult to measure stuff like damage and get consistent results.
On the other hand, why bother at all? Well, because you can actually kill Crota in his first stage using a sword. Which one? Time to find out.
The Tier List Revealed
After rigorous testing, the swords were grouped into three categories: bad, average, and good. Let’s break down each category to find out which swords stood tall and which ones faltered.
The Underperformers
So, Lament did about 3m damage and the following swords did less than that on average
- Heartshadow: Despite its cool features, including causing a weakened effect and offering invisibility, it could only muster around 2 million damage, falling short of the benchmark set by Lament.
- Sola’s Scar: This sword, even with adept impact (+10 Impact), disappointed with a damage output slightly over 1.7 million.
The Average Performers
The swords in this category kind of reach the Lament level of damage done, but aren’t quite there yet.
- Nasreddin: Boasting the field-tested origin trait for increased charge rate and guard resistance, it managed to reach just over 2.8 million damage, not quite crossing the 3 million threshold.
- Vortex Frame Swords: These swords, including the Death’s Razor, hovered around 2.8 million damage, proving to be reliable but not exceptional.
The Top Contenders
The swords that managed to consistently outperform Lament and do over 3m damage.
- Crown Splitter/Throne-Cleaver: These Titan-exclusive swords showcased impressive damage outputs, with the Crown Splitter even reaching over 3.6 million damage in tests. Craften Throne-Cleaver managed to get over 3.2m damage with proper traits.
- Goldtusk: This craftable Hunter-exclusive sword from Season of Defiance consistently outperformed Lament, with damage numbers soaring over 3.6 million.
- Bequest: an adaptive frame archetype, emerging as the champion with a staggering 4.1 million damage, this sword from the Deep Stone Crypt raid stands tall as the best choice for guardians aiming to conquer Crota.
The Final Verdict
While Bequest took the crown in terms of highest damage output, the Crown Splitter also showcased immense potential, especially when surge mods were activated, highlighting its viability in the Crota’s End raid guide.
But the point we’re trying to make here is that you don’t specifically need to get Bequest to deal huge amounts of damage. Other swords can do that to. How? Well it all depends on what frame you’re comfortable using. They all have different heavy attacks, so it may be that Bequest isn’t the sword for you. Which is absolutely okay, just try the other good ones!
