So I recently got my sword in Destiny. And I have to say it is some of the most fun I have had in destiny for a while. It's fun to use, it's cool to see, and it opens a new array of gameplay.
But now that the weekdays have come along, I don't have too much time to play destiny, so I just think about things to do, tactics to tryout, and talk to my friends about plans for the weekend.
So I thought of something I want to tryout, and I wanted to share it with you guys, too see if you guys think it would be effective. I call it the "Sword and Shield."
What would any knight be without his trusty shield, so grab your striker titan, and put on everyones favorite perk, juggernaut.
If you don't know, juggernaut can tank many things, but in retrospect, it can take 110 damage. But it can take more, if the damage is compressed into one shot, such as sniper rifles, and even GOLDEN GUNS (with & without keyhole). "But Tydson" you ask, "Why in the world would I want juggernaut, I already have blocking, and increased armor while wielding the sword." Well, tell me if you have run into this situation before. You're running along with your sword, and you see a guy in front of you. You start to sprint to catch up to him/her and they pull out the ever popular 1000 yard stare, and even the multitude of shotguns. You die. Well juggernaut can prevent that, since it can take the bullet for you, allowing you to close the gap, without stopping to block, or having to do some very fancy maneuvers.
So, what do you think. It's simple, but I think this can help players close the distance between that damn sniper, and the brave knight you are.
(wear iron banner armor for the complete set)

Probably want to use Boltcaster for this too. Most people's 1kYS is either Void(quest reward) or Solar(Vanguard Quartermaster). The ranged attack helps too.

You know it puzzles me how we don't have more striker Titans with juggernaut, everyone just wants to roll with the shoulder charge for kills these days.

Plus, now that juggernaut works in midair, slap on twilight garrison and that gap becomes that much easier to close
