mynameisd Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) Thought it would be cool to have a gunblade weapon, either for melee or pistol ^^ or perhaps both, so it becomes one huge 16 slot weapon capable of wielding both melee and pistol mods ^^. scroll through to see some cool variations; http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Gunblade http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101226033055/deadfantasy/images/5/58/Vanishing_Star_by_montyoum.jpg Edited January 12, 2014 by mynameisd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
--MANA-- Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 as good as this looks it would have problem making its way to the game now since the melee 2.0 is coming but i hope to see such weapons in the future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminati07 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 As much as I love FF VIII and gunblades, I believe they have no place in Warframe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UmamiSalami Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 A melee pistol would be nice though. You gotta admit that. I'm just having problems with what kind of mods it would use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekkou Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Function wise Glaive and Kestrels are pretty much "gunblade" as they can perform melee and "shoot" the enemies. Design wise, Gunblade isn't exactly special anymore and any developers or concept artist can easily thought about it. So if DE want to make gunblades we have already seen one now.

-Himari- Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Having a "gunblade" in Warframe reminds me of the "pistol sword" from Black Flag. Would be very fun to have, but if it's anything like Black Flag, it won't use ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rounds they're loaded with are blanks, and the important part is timing the "shot" so that the blade suddenly jolts in the middle of cutting a person. Think a vibro-blade from Star Wars, on a much more simplistic scale. That said, a melee weapon that has a mechanic where you have to reload every few swipes for a massive damage boost on the first enemy cut with each slash is cool, and it adds variety. If you need proof, note that that secon image has a few "Exhaust ports", so that the escaping gas from the round would shoot at the target, not barrels for bullets.

spysweeper242 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I imagine a classic sledge hammer with a revolver and bullet slot holes in the front of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
