Glaive in pvp
HEY BUNGIE
While Glaives are a AWESOME weapon and has received several nerfs to their damage reduction in PvP (reducing it from 75% down to significantly lower values against players), the fundamental design still prioritizes ignoring incoming damage. Due to this mechanic facing a glaive welding opponent will always feel a bit "unfair" in a match where precision is supposed to be king… just food for thought.
-
I've never found the shield on glaives to be particularly effective, but the melee is pretty good, so I keep it as my hail Mary for when opponents are too close and I need to react quicker than normal.

Glaive is considered a melee weapon I think. And melees have a lot of rubber banding (teleporting and ignoring damage) so I guess the melee animation should be reworked as a whole. So it can be stopped/cancelled/kill the enemy player mid animation instead of connecting hits
