'''Glaives''' are a new class of melee [[weapon]]s that was introduced in the ''[[The Witch Queen]]'' expansion of ''[[Destiny 2]]''. 

The weapon features a spear-like design and introduced new gameplay mechanics which will allow players to perform powerful melee combos, fire concentrated blasts of projectiles, and deploy a powerful energy shield.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/08/24):''' [https://www.bungie.net/7/en/Destiny/WitchQueen Witch Queen Reveal]</ref><ref>'''YouTube:''' [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bkKwhMgI6s Witch Queen Gameplay Reveal Trailer]</ref>

==Overview==
The Glaive originated as a weapon from the planet of [[Lubrae]] for some unknown millennia before the present, which the [[Lubraean]]s predominately used as tools by the [[The Regime|Regime]] to enforce their barbaric tyranny.{{citation needed}} After Lubrae's destruction, glaives were introduced as badges of honor by its survivor [[Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness|Rhulk]] to his fellow [[Disciples of the Witness|Disciples]], bestowing them as gifts. Centuries later, [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]] would use a broken Glaive with [[Darkness]] resonance with the intent of luring [[Guardians]] into her [[Court of Savathûn|Throne World]] and revealing her memories with [[Deepsight]].{{citation needed}} [[The Guardian]] would recover the broken glaive from her [[The Lure|ship]] and use the [[Relic (Mars)|Relic]] to reforge it from memory into [[The Enigma]].{{citation needed}} Since then, glaives became a favored weapon type of the Guardians and even newer models were forged by the [[Weapon Foundry|weapon foundries]] of the [[Last City]].{{citation needed}} At one point [[Immaru]] attempted to shape enhanced glaives for the [[Lucent Brood]] with [[Osmium]] fragments originating from the Hive's former home world of [[Fundament]], only for his plans to derail after [[Fynch]] stole one of these fragments for the Guardian and [[the Hidden]] uncovered his operations.{{citation needed}} Afterwards, the fragments recovered from the Hive were used by Guardians to shape the exotic glaives [[Edge of Action]], [[Edge of Intent]], and [[Edge of Concurrence]].
