takeshiblue Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Self explanatory here are the 5 melee weapons i think warframe need. 1. Nunchaku - Some users are Dante, Bruce Lee, Ryu Harabusa, Michelangelo , Ai Rin and Shang Chi(maervel universe). I can only imagine how fun these weapons would be in the game. 2. Chakrams - These weapons have been featured in many games including; Dynasty Warriors,Sengoku Basara, and most noticeably Axel from the Kingdom Hearts These weapons I would not consider a glaive since they come in pairs of two and the fact that they're hoop blades. 3. Rapiers - This weapon is not frail, and used correctly it can be quite powerful, just ask Zoro and Asuna. 4. Lances -There are many similar weapons to this but, a pole-arm and a sphere aren't the same thing, if we have to differentiate simply add a shield to it. Honestly I can't think of much actual lance users since it's a unique weapon but, it gets alot of love from the FF series and Sengoku Basara. 5. Kusarigama (sickle and chain) - This is the most ninja like weapon on the whole list. Some references of this weapons are Kohaku (inuyasha), Ryu Harabusa (Ninja Gaiden), Axel Low (Guilty Gear), and Black Star (Soul Eater). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunkenbagel Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Redskittlez's Mios is being added in eventually so that's close enough to a Kusarigama IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senketsu_ Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) Nunchucks are confirmed, I would really love a naginata myself. And Redskittlez Mios that got third place in the melee weapon contest was based off the Kusarigama. And I do have a Lance concept cooking up in my head once I finish my Tessan, and Sai concept.

(PSN)LoneWolf_001 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 The kusarigama has my vote. Ninja Assassin made this weapon shine and it's styles would be unique. I imagine fast ranged stance and close hard hitting stances with high crit chance and disarming combos. Nunchaku are also a good option with fast impact procs. Sorry, the others are less creative. Chakrim are just glaives in terms of style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexaloon Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I like the Chakrams (liked them in Kingdoms of Amalur). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunkenbagel Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I like the Chakrams (liked them in Kingdoms of Amalur). You couldn't not like any weapon in KoAR. Animation was amazing and combat was tight. Kinda hard to believe such a great game came from an ex-baseball player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rakshal Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 In my opinion: 1. Rapier 2. Karambit 3. Tanto 4. Wakizashi 5. Butterfly knife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sannidor Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) Nunchucks are coming, it was announced in last devstream :) My concept got a decent share of votes in last year's fan melee contest. I bet DE won't go for telescopic-bladed nunchucks but maybe the energy link will stay. So yeah, nunchucks all the way ^o^ https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/164289-bladed-nunchucks-forficulas-animation-concept-video/ Edited February 28, 2015 by Sannidor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holeypaladin Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Kusarigama can be made from the dual kamas, but ONLY if it is an outright better weapon than dual kamas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here you go: https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/147661-phase-1-melee-weapon-concept-submissions/page-9 As you see, all the "winning" weapons resemble closely OPs projects. I hope for DE to do the same with mine but I'll be happy by any nunchucks, and hey it's Warframe so we can count on some cool twist on them, right? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyssa Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Would very much like to see all of these, and have asked for several myself before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richtor2415 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I would like to see all five of those, but the thing is, Nunchucks(nunchaku) aren't really even a weapon. They were created by Americans in Hollywood. However, everything else I can dig, especially the spears and sicle/chain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyTopside Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 If they reimplimented charge attacks in a fun way, I would love to see a Kusari-Gama style weapon. Combos like a whip, with big sweeping strikes and a few close range slashes. Charge attacks that grapple an enemy and drag him to you at range. Oh yes, tons of fun.

Holeypaladin Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 dual kamas are small scythe these are sickles and chains Only difference between a sickle and a scythe is that sickle is one handed. So that would mean kamas are sickles, not scythes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAYABU5A Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 the most important part of kusarigama is the weighted chain, it doesnt matter whats on the lethal finishing end i really worry they will get the mios animations wrong because the chain is to strike and attack its not just to entangle or pull someone in id prefer they actually made kusarifundo instead and focused detail into the chain animations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCometCE Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Karambits Karambits Karambits Karambits. http://en.wikipedia.ord/wiki/Karambit Such wonderfully efficient blades, you can do everything from slashing wounds to puncturing to blunt impact off the ring on them. Also I kinda train with them but that only makes me realize how awesome they would be as a kind of finisher weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
