[MCU] Question about the Bifröst

If Odin's staff can be used to open the Bifröst, as seen in Thor 1, why does Hela need Heimdall's sword?

It's more that Odin can do it, because he's REALLY powerful. It's not the staff doing it, as much as it was Odin focusing his power through the staff. Hela wasn't quite as powerful as Odin, and thus needed an additional tool to make it happen.
