Ziegrif Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Iaido? Well here's hoping it's just Iaido and the sheathing isn't just the idle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) The hype for the katana is so damn high, it's bound to be an alerts-only like the Glaive. Edited April 4, 2014 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerZeyCJ Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) Must...have...NOW! Also, interesting that leap and wall attacks are its strongest, but disappointed in its slow speed and low crit. Maybe it just hasn't gone through its final balancing yet. Edited April 4, 2014 by JerZeyCJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WERElektro Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 No idea why everyone is going nuts over a damn Katana. We're Ninjas in outer space with rocketlauncher, plasma swords, organic blades that bleed poison.... and what weapon do you want? A Katana. No idea why they are so popular. Compared to all the other weapons in history, the Katana is plain boring... effective and dangerous, yes, but still boring imo. How about a Hellebarde? Or a Tomahawk?

zebar1313 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Its charge attack better be like a teleport forward that cuts everything in its path. Watch this be a tenno lab research item... i would cry a little inside.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After why you said, theres no reason for a tomahawk. We are not "Native American space ninjas". (Not saying a tomahawk ala glaive like throwing, or just ammo wouldnt be sweet) 2nd, for me since we are ninjas supposedly, why cant we have a weapon with a sheath? With the sheath/Unsheath style that screams coolness? This game has been begging for a such a style for a really long time. I mean just look a the description on the weapon. "The old times" also whats a hellebarde? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I just think Kanatas are cool. They look cool. Some of the sayas look cool. The way they are portrayed in modern-day media makes their usage look cool. Rule of Cool, man.

"The old times" also whats a hellebarde? 1) uhm... I don't really understand that now. We have medival -esque weapons, ...why not a tomahawk? And I don't mean a 1:1 adapation of said weapons... you know like.... The Lecta is based off on a whip, - but it was designed to look futuristic. 2) Well, I didn't know it was going to get sheath... But at least now I know what make it special. okay... apparently I was talking about a Halberd:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halberd Didn't know there was a different word for it.

The Iaido style of wielding a katana is often considered very cool and stylish. It is something unique to katanas and you never see any other sword wielded that way. *Iaido consists of drawing the katana from the scabbard and striking in one swift motion, killing the opponent before they can attack, defend or draw their weapon. Their are also katana styles that incorporate the scabbard itself either for striking the enemy or blocking an attack as to not damage your blade.

(Not saying a tomahawk ala glaive like throwing, or just ammo wouldnt be sweet) Meanwhile, two-hand swords, maces, and axes. A throwing axe is fine and isn't even culturally limited to Native Americans either. I wouldn't mind seeing one in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
