I hope they become a T3 enemy replacement.... They were pretty Brutal

 

EDIT: HAVE THEM BE HONOR GUARDS! Colossal gents with huge @(*()$ saw swords! Should come with an amazing array of attack animations to go with Melee 2.0!

 

Excal hoppin'? I'd be Super Jumping if I wasn't using Mag at the time XD (Loved my Mag and now I love mah Mag Prime >:3)

I only joined in late U7, so they've always been wielding butcher knives for me.

Still, though, I think it'd be pretty awesome for the weapons to make a comeback on some sort of new melee unit, or even simply high-leveled Butchers (similarly to how Lancers get quickly replaced with slightly different-looking Elite Lancers). Not all placeholder content needs to be tossed aside permanently. XD

They got kind of obnoxious in higher end content where they'd spawn more frequently. Often making the bizarre Doppler effect like sound to that grinding noise the saw made. You'd often hear them from quite a distance away.

I really liked them too.

 

The official explanation as far as i can remember was that they got complains from players who found them too easy to kill because you could hear them comming.

 

...

 

As if the butchers are any harder. We still kill them by the hundred each mission. I must have died to butcher TWICE in the months i played the game.

But yeah at least the sawman had a nice psychological factor. They should really come back as higher tier replacement for the Butchers. Maybe with a different saw sound. The original one was basicly a saw on contact with a substance, rather than just a saw spinning.

I don't even have to kill them! My Dethcube does it for me, same with any other sent save my Shade which instead cloaks me from him.

Oh the nostalgia, I miss their obnoxiously loud sawblades so. Here's hoping they make a comeback in Melee 2.0.

 

 

i want that back as a usable mele weapon for tenno

 

Clan researchable Grineer weaponry perhaps? We could certainly use more of that.
