Step 1
The energy sword is a great weapon to use in close quarters combat. This weapon can only be used to melee your enemy so do not try to use this weapon for long rage attacks. Try to stay in closed off areas and crouch so that your enemy team cannot see you on their radar.

Step 2
When two players have energy swords and attack each other at the same time, both players will clash their swords and lose half of their energy. This can be repeated as many times as it takes before someone kills the other person. If you are in a situation like this, press RT (right trigger) to lunge and then B to melee. Pressing B to melee will make you swing your sword faster than your enemy will. Only use this if your enemy is in Melee range after clashing. Repeat this until you kill your enemy.

Step 3
The energy sword can also be used to save yourself if you are about to fall off of an edge. Try jumping off of an edge near an enemy player. Make sure that you will be close enough to lunge at then before you fall off of the edge. This makes for a great sneak attack. This is a great weapon to master in Halo 3.
