[Melee Weapon Concept] Tabak - Nunchucks

[GorixtheG]

After the release of the Nikana, Claw, sword and shield, and Tonfa weapon types, I thought, "You know what we need? another unique weapon type.". So I thought a pair of nunchucks would fit in nicely.

 

The Tabak would be a short range, lightning fast melee weapon dealing mostly impact damage.

 

The stats would be something like this:

Impact - 34

Puncture - 2

Slash - 2

Attack speed - 1.3

Slide - 80

Jump - 50

Wall - 70

Crit damage - 2.25

Crit chance - 25.0%

Status chance - 5.0%

 

Combat style:

 

This weapon will be best suited for concentrated attacks against single targets. Similar to the hand-to-hand weapons, pressing the melee button once will result in two strikes. By itself, the Tenno's attacks will consist of swinging the Tabak back and forth and generally beating the circuits/brains out of the enemy, while the stance mod (trying to think of a name for it) will give him a more controlled, methodical style. After every strike, the Tenno will return to a ready position.

 

Let me know what you think, and if I need to add/change any information.

Another Nunchucks thread. Unsurprising given that we are NINJAS here. ANYWAY the only reason I am opposed to this idea is that I don't want another stance to farm. :'(

Imaru is kinda right, I would sorta prefer more weapons for types we already have. Maybe a new Sword and shield, claw, or Nikana.

I really like this idea and i think it should be in the game but have it use the same stance as some of the fist melee weapons
