'''Sword Primids''', a.k.a. Beam Primids, are very similar to regular ''[[Primid]]s'', the only difference being that the Sword Primid has more health and that they hold a ''[[Beam Sword]]''.  They attack by normally slashing at you with the Sword, but they can also dash at you and then attack. They can also perform charged stabs and jump attacks. Because of this, like the regular Beam Sword weapon, these Primids have a noticibly larger range than standard Primids. On harder difficulties, they can also reflect projectiles with their swords and string together longer attack combos. When a Sword Primid has been defeated, it may sometimes drop a Beam Sword for the player to use. They are slightly harder to turn into a trophy than a regular Primid; to make capturing it easier, it should be regularly weakened, then when there is a good distance between the Sword Primid and the player, a ''[[Trophy Stand]]'' should be thrown. If a Stand is thrown while it is nearby, it can attack and the process of throwing the Trophy Stand will have to be started again. In a larger group, it may be a better idea to attack the Sword Primids from above because they lack a diversity of aerial attacks and you can evade their slashes more easily. Floaty characters that can stay airborne long enough ([[Meta Knight]], [[Kirby]], [[Pit]]) may also find it easier to throw a Trophy Stand at the Primid from above, by throwing it downwards.

'''Sword Primids''' ({{ja|ソードプリム|Sōdo Purimu}}, ''Sword Prim''), are similar to regular [[Primid]]s, the primary difference being that the Sword Primid wields a [[Beam Sword]] (though unlike the Beam Sword available to use by the Smash characters, this Beam sword is green instead of blue). When compared to normal Primids, they have the same appearance and have good, fast mobility as well. Though Sword Primids have slightly more health, and a different moveset consisting of use of their Beam Sword.


==Trophy description==
Sword Primids generally attack by slashing with their Beam Sword. Their moveset consists of multiple sword swings that can sting together long attack combos, a dash attack, charged stabs, and the jump attacks that regular Primids use. While their attacks deal very low knockback, they deal moderate damage with very long reach, and have low start-up and ending lag. They also have the ability to reflect projectiles with their sword for 1.1x damage, though this is usually only used if the player is [[camping]].

Sword Primids pose a larger threat than regular Primids, as while they are generally incapable of KOing, even on intense difficulty, their fast, long reaching attacks are usually difficult to avoid and allow them to rack up damage on the player quickly, setting them up to be KO'd by stronger enemies. Like regular Primids, they have good mobility, and appear in large numbers. A group of Sword Primids can bring a player to over 100% in damage in a short amount of time on intense difficulty. Sword Primids are offset however, by their low KO power and their low health, as they can often be taken out in a couple of hits, or by a single strong attack.

Sword Primids (ソードプリム, Sword Prim), are similar to regular Primids, the primary difference being that the Sword Primid wields a Beam Sword (though unlike the Beam Sword available to use by the Smash characters, this Beam sword is green instead of blue). When compared to normal Primids, they have the same appearance and have good, fast mobility as well. Though Sword Primids have slightly more health, and a different moveset consisting of use of their Beam Sword.

Sword Primids generally attack by slashing with their Beam Sword. Their moveset consists of multiple sword swings that can sting together long attack combos, a dash attack, charged stabs, and the jump attacks that regular Primids use. While their attacks deal very low knockback, they deal moderate damage with very long reach, and have low start-up and ending lag. They also have the ability to reflect projectiles with their sword for 1.1x damage, though this is usually only used if the player is camping.

Sword Primids pose a larger threat than regular Primids, as while they are generally incapable of KOing, even on intense difficulty, their fast, long reaching attacks are usually difficult to avoid and allow them to rack up damage on the player quickly, setting them up to be KO'd by stronger enemies.
