While in the bridge encounter, there are two specific enemies: the Swordbearer, and the [[Gatekeeper (Knight)|Gatekeeper]]. The only way to cross the bridge is to kill the Swordbearer and take his sword; without it, players cannot cross alive. Killing the Swordbearer results in the Gatekeeper spawning on the opposite side of the bridge, who can only be killed by the [[Cleaver|sword]]. Be warned, the sword will disappear after forty-five seconds, so it's crucial that the bridge is already formed before killing the Swordbearer and taking his sword. It is also crucial that each Gatekeeper is killed before the sword breaks, as each time the Swordbearer is killed, another Gatekeeper appears. A Swordbearer appears again during Crota's fight where he is needed to be killed for his sword to be used to damage Crota. Once the sword breaks, another Swordbearer respawns.

Swordbearers return in a [[Nightmares|Nightmare]] form in [[Shadowkeep]] where they appear in various [[Public Event]]s throughout the [[Moon]] patrol areas along with in the [[Nightmare Hunts|Nightmare Hunt: Despair]]. Their primary use is in [[Altars of Sorrow]] where they must be killed and their swords used to kill various [[Wizard]]s to continue the event. Meanwhile in Nightmare Hunt: Despair they where used by the [[Nightmare of Crota, Son of Oryx]] as a way to stay in its invulnerable state. Once defeated, the Nightmare becomes vulnerable and the swordbearers' swords are used to damage it.
