So many people have asked why I put the Dragon's Tooth Sword in B-Tier in my Deus Ex GOTY Weapons Tier List video. This is why. This. Join the Agency: / @baconher0
There's one reason it belongs on B tier, and that is that Denton is too stupid to turn the dragon's tooth off before putting it in his inventory, making it take a full four slots. Kinda defeats the entire idea of a lightsaber if you keep it on in your pocket. He does the same thing with his blackjack. Guy is thick in the head.

I love it because it enables my preferred play style in every game: turn invisible, turn movement speed to max, and run around like an absolute psychopath, cutting everything to shreds. I have no idea if it's "good" by anyone else's standards, but it's the only weapon in the game that makes run n' stab a viable strategy on realistic.

It still has an insane damage output for something that only takes up four spaces and doesn't require any skill in low-tech to be effective. With the speed aug or just by waiting around a cramped corner JC can melt enemies. Coupled with how broken the regeneration aug is, the damage taken isn't significant. The utility it has outside combat, such as being able to break locks and security equipment with the proper set-up, is icing on the cake. Thing shreds nearly everything organic in the game.

DTS is something you build around, full on melee builds on realistic are extremely strong. I would argue that it's 4x1 inv space is less worth it if you are doing gun builds. Baton becomes a better choice. Skill point wise you are not saving much because you pretty much have to be running ballistic protection + master environmental training on the huge firefights. The 2x mil bots + 6-7 MJ12's when you are coming up out of the sewers in Paris comes to mind. DTS goes way down in value in GMDX on hardcore however.

Fair. But I’d go for A just because in scenarios with crowds like the return to nyc you can turn on subdermal clear things super efficiently without having to spend a gep gun shot or ammo in scenarios you can’t really stealth that efficiently. Corners are also really good with it. Enemies are a bit awkward to turn and attack so you can bait enemies with it. And lastly enemies take a moment to click with the idea they should be killing you when you rush a guy down like a Monty python skit, so in sections like the cathedral it’s a very good way to clear out some rooms all while being free & taking little investment.

All fair points and I respect your B tier. Thing is augmentations patch it enough where its a good weapon, now sure you can go cloaked and jump more, have more durability with a ranged weapon but against normal enemies that dont explode or bots, for example streets and or better from room to room the DT just annihilates everything with ease especially on ambushes with cloaking. All tier lists should have a addendum FUN LIST. I also liked how it can destroy objects and the light from the blade was useful if you dont want to waste biocells.

If you invest into it, it's one of the best weapons in the game. But that's just the thing; the weapons in the higher tiers are awesome with _no investment at all._ The pistol is busted immediatly. You start at trained level with it, but even that's superfluous if you use the laser weapon mod (which can be aquired on Liberty Island near the start of the game at no cost.) The GEP gun can decimate robots, personnel, and doubles up as a lockpick/multitool without you having to spend any resources. LAMs have all the power of the GEP in a compact package with even more utility as mines and granting the ability to perform out of bounds shenanigans. The rilfe is overpowered right away. All you have to do is fire it without using the scope. It would be interesting to know what the tierlist would look like if all of the weapons worked as intended instead of being subject to all this jank that makes them either useless (plasma weapons) or overpowered.

To be honest it can be A tier or B tier depending on your build. If you play stealth you will obviously go for a GEP gun so it will make dragon tooth less viable but if you play with sniper rifle or something it becomes quite usefull as an utility tool as its very powerfull and doesn't require much investment into the skill tree from you

Why play on Realistic though? I don't think that increases the fun factor of the game. On lower difficulties, like Medium healing is not that big of a problem in my opinion. Combine Dragon Tooth Sword with stealth - jump out, kill a bunch of guys, retreat. The best thing about Dragon Tooth is it's sheer power. In most cases it's a one hit kill. That's really tempting to me. Also - it doesn't run out of ammo
