Yeah, that's what I thought (Destiny)
That last hotfix changed the scripting so that the sword-bearer waits until you run out of the hallway before spawning. Now the encounter "clock" that governs when stuff spawns or Crota moves doesn't start until you leave. This gave us a chance to heal, use synths, etc. before we ran out.
I appreciate that I have a consistent marker for starting my timer now. I hit "start" when the Swordbearer's door opens and everything is very predictable.
As for the swordbearer himself, we had more than a couple runs where he wouldn't co-operate and I had to jump down and lure him towards us. We got lucky with this run.
I figured as much. It certainly helps with timing to have him drop the sword right next to the pedestal. I'm looking forward to trying this strategy with the Xbox crew.
