TwilightRanger86 16 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 (edited) Title pretty much says it all. Warframe needs a large two handed khopesh and while I am aware of the Khopesh for longswords there isn't one that is two handed. While it's true that there are several two handed Tennogen blades, every single one of them is straight bladed and it's that lack of variety that I came to the forums to post this thread. The khopesh is an amazing design and there is no better time to finally have a curved blade for a 2 handed weapons than now with Inaros Prime being recently released. I'm hoping that there is a Tennogen designer here that would be willing to take this idea and turn this beautiful, timeless design, and convert it into a two handed weapon skin to be show cased with the Sentinel of the Sands.

kouji86 152 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 I second this would really love one, heck it could even be an heavy blade skin as well if for what ever reason if its easier Link to post Share on other sites

I like the idea of keeping the traditional form with some exaggerated features, like a slightly deeper curve to the blade. Definitely have some prime like features, maybe a metalic inlay of Egyptian script along the blade (I would make the metal color a rose gold personally). Maybe some ribbon like tasets that are akin to the papyrus wrappings the Egyptians used for mummification. Just a few ideas off the top of my head. Link to post Share on other sites
(PSN)i7081277 638 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I remember that Vulbjorn actually did work on a kopesh skin a while ago exept it was for dual blades. I remember really loving it! im not sure the Tennogen artists can actually do prime aesthetic skins but I can see them doing a Tenno, infested, greneer, corpus, or sentient skin for it. I think it’d look super dope. Link to post Share on other sites
SpicyDinosaur 3,150 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 The problem is, the way DE designed the Khopesh skin, it is backwards. It's really closer to an axe than a sword. They don't seem to want to fix it either, per comments they made when it was brought up. I'd really only want a 2h khopesh skin (heavy weapons) if both models were swinging correctly.

I'd really only want a 2h khopesh skin (heavy weapons) if both models were swinging correctly. Reversing it turned it into a bastardized sickle essentially which was designed to chop and hack. The kopesh was designed to slice and be able to draw the blade away from the target quickly, allowing the user to have a quicker follow up swing. I'm really hoping to see a 2H kopesh skin for heavy blades and not what DE did. Sorry DE, I love your work for the most part but your kopesh design was a misstep. Link to post Share on other sites
TwilightRanger86 16 Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Any updates? Is this considered a dead topic now? Still hoping to see a 2 handed khopesh. Link to post Share on other sites
LostEpoch 776 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 It's not two handed but I did make a Sentient khopesh skin if that helps Link to post Share on other sites
TwilightRanger86 16 Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 It's very nice looking but I was hoping for something that would be for two handed weapons. I appreciate it though! Link to post Share on other sites

Or were you under the impression that just saying "some fellow player should do something for me" was enough to magically produce a Tennogen skin? Link to post Share on other sites

Inflammatory comment much? 1) If you read the beginning of this, an artist did come forward and I was curious as to if they were still interested. 2) To my knowledge no one had brought up the idea so I did 3) It's Tennogen. I'm willing to pay for the content. Do I benefit? Absolutely. Do other players that might be interested in the content benefit as well? Absolutely.
