Phase 1: Melee Weapon Concept Submissions

[Endorphinz]

This is my submission. As you can see, drawing is not something I usually do.

 

Faction: Grineer

Name: Shreek (Or whatever you wanna call it)

Grip: two-handed heavy weapon

This is a Grineer chainsaw staff. Utilizing archaic technologies, this weapon's spinning chain blades shred armor easily, exposing and tearing at the flesh underneath; it would do mostly puncture and slashing damage. It could be wielded like either a staff, a polearm, or a heavy axe, by shortening the handle’s length in the design. The orange bits are supposed to be the energy color.

 

Chainsaw weapons are really badass!

CORPUS

This extended shock prod is used in research labs to coerce uncooperative subjects from a safe distance, and features adjustable power settings ranging from minor shock to charred flesh.

 

[gell]

Faction: Grineer

Grip Type: gauntlet/cestus (it's worn like a glove when equipped)

 

With multiple stages of charging, the Eximo Cestus can go from damaging to destructive. Early stages will generate increasingly strong punches that attack multiple enemies, while the full charge sends out a line attack reaching further than conventional melee. Ground pound to warn others what awaits them if they stick around. Tempt the fates by holding your ground in the face of danger, and release to clear anything in your way.

 

 

[Tarudizer]

I can't draw and thus can't enter the contest

 

Have you gone through here? There are lots of people who have no skill or talent in drawing. At first it seemed silly, but then I realized that atleast they try. I could make several good designs here, but I'm not. That's much worse, don't you agree?

[MrDerf]

Name: Hoarfrost

Faction: Tenno

Grip-Type: Longsword (Similar to Dakra Prime)

Description:

The Hoarfrost is a Tenno blade crafted by the masters of ice. Its razor-sharp crystalline blade instantly freezes all that it cuts.

Hoarfrost is reminiscent in size/appearance to an Ōdachi; however, its light weight allows it to be swung quickly. Wielders plunge the blade into the ground during a charge attack, dealing ice damage to all enemies within a large area (5-8 meters) and leaving a lingering effect that slows/damages enemies.

Artwork: Thankfully my friend is better at drawing than I am

[(PSN)FraytaCentariHM]

Name: Conduit 

Grip type: Two handed light sword.

Faction: Orokin

Description: Forged by the Orokin masters the Conduit was built to harness the elements itself. A sword by nature the blade is nearly weightless, the hilt its only true physical part. The weapon offers a high status chance, and a unique display for each elemental mod inserted and in combination.

 

This Melee Conduit offers a unique style of damage among it’s peers, Offering Slash, and High elemental contact- just as an Ignis would.

 

Conduits are difficult to find, but may be wielded in pairs if so desired.

 

Original Artwork: (excuse the roughness and the quicky loki.)

[Enculeon]

Name: Verbero
Latin for : "beat, scourge, lash, strike violently, thrash, batter, hammer, assail"
Grip type: Pole Arm
(In example: Orthos)
Faction: Grineer
Description: Primarily designed as a backup mining device, the Grineer used these hammers to split, smash and blast through troublesome rocks. The head of the hammers are filled with explosive agents triggered when the needle experiences enough pressure to stimulate the flint based mechanism, the hydraulic safety hinges are so the weapon can withstand it's own recoil. This variant has been adapted for TENNO usage.

And, for more interesting angles...

P.S. sequence above is to present an idea of the detonation mechanism and is not to be interpreted as part of the moveset.

My entry to the melee weapon concept contest:

 

Mendatory Boring Info:

Faction: Tenno (or faction-less; Kitty Lotus loves all and shares said love freely)

Brief Description: 

- Grip Type: Whip/Tail/Pet/Feline Overlord(?).  Lotus is not an object, she has feelings too, you know.  

-  It's a kitty that's a Lotus that rawrs and noms and patooies hairballs.  You hold her by her delicate feline tail.  Not sure what else to add.  *shrug*

Original Artwork:

Day 44: 『Melee Weapon Concept: Kitty Lotus (aka Lotucat)』

 

 

**PS:  Slide attack is supposed to launch Lotus across the floor, where she will nom on any and all enemies who come into contact for a short period of time, before running back to the Tenno.  

[Greater_Dullahan]

The PUH-PACK

 

(Check spoiler for ANIMATION)

 

Faction: Corpus

 

Grip-Type - Attached, Unique

 

Description: The PUH-PACK is a Corpus weapon originally developed in order to hold back hordes of Infested through emitting pressure waves (and/or blasts). HOWEVER, the Tenno stole the designs, named it the PUH-PACK, and slapped a lotus decal on it.

 

The PUH-PACK is powered by a backpack-like generator worn on the left shoulder. This generator is required to supply energy to the emission plates which are attached to the right arm's elbow and back of hand.

 

The PUH-PACK deals impact damage over an area; staggering is expected of all cannon fodder. The PUH-PACK makes the most out of range-increasing mods.

 

 

Edit: accidentally went over the description limit

 

Edit: Nevermind!

[Verouzer]

Name: Ouranios

Faction: Orokin [Maybe Stalker can use it as his new melee weapon]

 

Description: Once was thought to be lost, Ouranios emerges from deep Tenno ruins when reacts to Orokin energy. Ouranios is one of the ancient weapons that was used by ancient Tennos.

 

Grip type: Levitation

Set of 4 rotating weapons.

 

The Ouranios spins in place in stand by mode and spins violently in attack mode.

The Orokin orb emits a mysterious energy wave granting Ouranios the power to deal high damage ignoring armor to multiple enemies.

Requires both hands to perform certain stance / movements to wield Ouranios just like element bendings in Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Ouranios can be sheated in few ways to enable flexibility for primary and secondary weapons so that Ouranios won't interfere with primary and secondary weapons.

 

Note: Ouranios won't attach itself to Warframe but will levitate while spinning close to Warframe's skin just like in the picture below (Rhino & Excalibur).

 

 

[Stotiger]

Fraction: Tenno

Grip: Spear or staff held like you would any long weapon.

Description: Short throwing spear concept. Stealth weapon. When held in hand it is used much like you would the orthos with the exception of some jabs in the for a spear like motion. For "charged" attacks it can be thrown a "set distance" while being attached to a rope after the object is hit will auto re-call or stay in target tell re-called with hitting the melee button again. Can impale your enemies short distances. Basically a three bladed spear head attached to a rope! :P We need a spear in the game (sorry for such large images couldn't figure out how to shrink them down once in the forums, I'm sure if i had more time I could have figured it out) ~Stotiger

 

[sonicb1]

Faction : Tenno

Description : An old one-hand sword founded in snowy Tenno's colonies, who was charged with corrupted void's energy and took the element of the colony : the ice.

Artwork :

(Yeah paint stuff, but a true Tenno masters Paint.)

The orange dots are the energy modifications, the blue in the grip is the 1st color,  the grey part is the 2nd color, the black circle is the 3rd color and the blue around the blade is the 4th color (custom informations)

[_Belak]

Faction: Tenno
Name: For now let's call it Slice & Dice (I'm really bad at naming)
Description: Grip-type same as Dual Zoren, a small and deadly weapon allowing fast movement with blades. Slice (the bigger one) on the outside has a saw-like-blade making it easier to pass armor, on the inside is a standard sharp blade. Dice is a bladed fan connected with Slice by chain.
The normal attacks would be the same as Dual Zoren, but for the stealth kill the chain would be used (something like a choke from behind) as too the power attack it could be a powerful fan swing that would knock down enemies or fancy spinning the Slice by holding the weapon by the fan or something along those lines.

First time I made something like this, sorry for the lack of skill hope someone likes this.

[Gatamelata]

Fiery Tessen

Fire fighting fan, personal weapons Lotus .

Faction: Orokin .

Sharpened edge combined with searing fire makes it very efficient.

Main generator near the central arm creates laser light that ignited the special items on the tips of sharp edges of the fan .

In standby mode, the fan is at rest behind .

When you attack can inflict piercing damage , remaining folded and cutting when decomposed .

With a strong fan can start the attack in flight, like a boomerang , in expanded form . To do this , the soldier puts his arm back and up high, as in the bar exercise with combat fan.

To block the fan takes the form of a shield , and relies on the wrist of a warrior. When enemy attacking there is a chance that the enemy will back fire damage .

This weapon is a thin and elegant , but it has deadly force.

The Skorpyius :

 

Faction : the Skorpyius axe is a Tenno's attempt to master the living power of the infested.

 

Grip : One-handed axe, light and fast as it balance itself when you strike with it, it does mainly puncture damages but also drip poison that replenish itself as this weapon is a semi-living thing.

 

[GratuitousLurking]

Name: Craneblade (probably WIP)

Faction: Tenno

Grip: Polearm (Modified)

Brief Description: Originally designed as a calvery lance, the Craneblade has become used by many a Tenno now as a polearm form of weapon, perfect for striking through hardened plating thanks to the Tenno's enhanced strength. When charged, this weapon propels the user forward in a powerful 'Crane Strike', sending your enemies flying.

[BreakingCore]

Faction - Tenno
Name - Tenacity
Description - Known to the masters of brawlers as the "killing blow bracelets". These bracelets use advanced orokin technology to Superheat its surrounding by amplifying the frictional force between the bracelet and anything in contact including air. By making a series of precise jabs and kicks, one could deliver a hefty blast of flame on the deathblow. Precaution : users must use a special glove made of a mixture of morphics and orokin cells to be able to withstand such heat.
Grip : fist weapon ( more like bracelets and gloves or socks for the legs)
normal Attack : Slow attacks for a fist weapon considering that it does amplify friction. Since fist weapons already have a fixed "combo" attack, i was thinking why not make that combo to good use by adding a small blast of flame on the last attack of that combo. So its kind of like physical damage on the first few hits and fire damage on the last hit. 
Charged attack : the usual double leg kick will release a cone of flame.

Spin attack : a mini spiral of flame around the tenno which just does a 360 turn while sliding.
wall attack : a fire punch? lol
leap attack : similar to heat sword/dagger
i guess you could call it heat sword/dagger long lost bro.

[Mythblaze]

Faction: Tenno

 

Description: Grip Type: Twin Dagger

    A Tenno version of the Kukri. Enhanced with a magnetized trigger node, allowing it to be thrown skillfully in a short orbit around a Tenno as a simple slash attack, then return back to the hilt. Charged, the weapon can be thrown to pull weak enemies to the Tenno, or pull a Tenno to a surface. This however consumes stamina greatly, limiting its repetitive use. It has a moderate attack speed and a below average damage output, but its fast charge speed and grapple skill will give fellow Tenno an edge in asymmetric battles.

 

I love this idea!

[xGryphus]

Name: Oculus
Faction: Tenno

Grip type: combat orb (unique, this will be a b**** to animate)
Brief Description: Oculus combat system consist of a pair of gauntlets of Orokin origin, utilized to generate and manipulate high density energy sphere. Sphere hits enemies in a wide arcs, however it's unable to harm those directly adjacent to user. Blocking disperse sphere into a wide energy shield, capable of blocking all incoming attacks but leaving user unable to move. At charge attack sphere is thruster forward, bouncing from encountered enemies before returning to user (utilizes Glaive mods).

The Wormhole Tri-Whip

Its not half bad, Idk if there would be any debuffs or something like that, but its worth taking a look at, description in the link (Always have wanted to say that [you know... youtube, link in the description?]) Can be combined with wormhole to have the same effect as synapse/volt shield, a warped beam of pure demise

(weak against infested, gravitational disruption doesnt affect them as much because of their adaptation to extreme environments)

Faction: Rouge Tenno

(possible 'use at own risk')

[Barda1]

-snip-

Kinda cool, but probably quite hard to do.

[Scail]

Faction: Tenno

Name: Nue

Grip-type: Dual Long Swords

Long twin swords Nue, created by Tenno armorers in response to the proliferation of Grineer expansion. Ether blades mounted in a heavy frame, are an almost perfect weapon against heavily armored targets.

Оригинальное описание на русском.

Длинные парные мечи Нуэ, созданы оружейниками Тэнно в ответ на разрастание экспансии Гринир. Эфирные клинки установленные в тяжелую раму, являют собой практически идеальное оружие против тяжело бронированных целей.

Faction: Grineer

 

Weapon Name: Guilla

 

Weapon Description:

A Grineer-style heavy chainsaw that has a unique charge attack mechanism where it requires the user to first execute a charge attack to "power" the saw blades. Without the charge, the damage output is very low. However, once it's charged, the damage increases drastically, dealing massive amounts of slash-based damage against flesh. While this weapon is "powered", it emits a loud noise which makes this weapon unfitting for stealthy movements. This charge lasts until the weapon is put back, or until some time passes by without executing any charge attacks. The user will be able to know if the charge is gone if the weapon becomes silent or if the weapon stops emitting smoke.

 

Weapon's lore:

Powered by the Grineer's overwhelming ambition. A Grineer-style heavy chainsaw that were commonly used to fight off the plant life on earth. It's meanings were lost and replaced with the introduction of the Cicero Toxin.

[Zarmonic]

Name: War Sgred

Faction: Grineer

Brief Description: 2 Handed sword, is able to extend, Heavy but slow attacks, got a special attack: if an anemy is close to a wall/box/pillar etc player can grab the sword horizontal to decapitate the head of the enemy.
