We knew Eris was going to reveal a new Heavy Weapon type during The Taken King, but for those who didn't catch it in today's stream, I present to you the Sword.

Its stats are Speed, presumably the speed with which it strikes; Impact, the damage dealt; Range, the distance at which it's effective; Efficiency, possibly how much Energy it uses; Defence, its power to block; and Energy, presumably the power source.

The upgrade allows you to "guard" by pressing the left stick, and the guard is effective against the damage types not of the Sword.
