Tarudizer Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 I'd love more dual-ended polearms, like the orthos (which have the SAME type of ends mind you, not like the orthos prime... ugh), spears, halberds, throwable javelin, dual swords that are ACTUALLY dual swords and not one sword and a dagger (again... ugh) and for a more fantasy feel: dual laser whips (think iron man 2 villain) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade343 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Of course, that is the primary goal... to kill in interesting ways *cough* Energry sword *cough* ERHM it appears I kinda coughed out an idea for a melee weapon, though I suppose ethers are pretty close to it... You know, from energy swords, we can have the following: Heavy style energy sword (ES). Medium style ES. Light style ES. Offhand ES (known as a shoto in Star Wars). Staff ES. Dual ES. ES that kills ghosts. ES that can do precision surgery. ES that can sear steaks. Blunt ES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the idea of them and the dual whips just sounds like a crazy fun time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarille Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 New weapon type: Warglaives (Yes, that's Warglaives of Azzinoth from WoW modded into Skyrim. Warframe ones would likely be sleeker and potentially even fold away when sheathed) New Polearm: Double Bladed Scythe It'd be pretty cool to have in my opinion. New Whip: Sword Whip Similar to the iconic weapon of Ivy from Soul Caliber - A sword whip would look awesome and would be a welcome addition to a very scarce weapon type (What with only having 2 whips) - It could be of Tenno design and take the place of the "Tenno Whip" (We have Lecta for Corpus and Scoliac for Infested - Just missing Tenno and Grineer.... I'd imagine Grineer having some sort of flaming whip or something) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade343 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Contents from post #129. As much as the Sword Whip looks cool (I mean it), I sincerely cannot imagine how would someone use it correctly. For all we know, the wielder could try to slice someone, accidentally pressed a button and turn the sword into a whip, harmlessly touching the opponent and/or injuring the wielder.

Aciaj613 Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Hmm... Opinion. What if I rename this post "Weapon idea train for DE to finally work on" Would that be a bit too insulting? :D All I'm saying is every one of you have some great ideas coming into the forum posts.

You see, with energy swords, you can adjust the 'sharpness' of the blade, meaning you can end up with a blunt sword (then again, I think I may be watching too much Star Wars and Star Wars: EU).

Now that the overeaction is out of the way, that would be a very very interesting weapon. We can always do it. Just design a new sword with different modes, and assign a new key to it. Heck, I drew and wrote up a concept for a primary weapon using that mechanism, where the player can change between rifle, shotgun and sniper mode within a mission, just by pressing a new key, such as the Z or X key.

I think to balance this weapon it should probably use different amounts of ammo depending on what mode it's in. (Rifle ammo of course). Sorry if you suggested it in your post, I'm working a paper at the same time, I'll read through it when I got some reading time here.

Tarille Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 We are getting something very close to twinblades, Tonfa I think was the name of the weapons they have been working on. The Bladed Tonfa do look pretty cool, but they're still fairly different to the warglaives - The Tonfa blades run parallel to the forearm while warglaives blades run perpendicular to the forearm. Makes them require different attack styles, not to mention their shapes are different - Tonfa are asymmetrical while warglaives are symmetrical. As much as the Sword Whip looks cool (I mean it), I sincerely cannot imagine how would someone use it correctly. For all we know, the wielder could try to slice someone, accidentally pressed a button and turn the sword into a whip, harmlessly touching the opponent and/or injuring the wielder. Well... In the Soul Caliber universe it doesn't make much sense being able to use it as both a sword and a whip (The ability to be a whip would seriously weaken the structural integrity of the blade making it very likely to disassemble upon contact, also the whole "Where does the rest of the cord that makes the whip go?" - Especially when you have to account for the tang of the blade being inside the grip) For Warframe, currently whips when not being swung act like Swords - With a solid "Blade" with a concealed cord. Then swinging extends the cord and it functions as a whip. This is ideal for making a "Sword Whip" - It could also allow for a future combo/stance that uses unextended attacks in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aramanth Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Sword/shield combo. The shield could be able to block attacks at a very reduced stamina cost, but would slow the blocker down when blocking. It could also have its own stance that lets it stun an enemy by bashing them with the shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be having that with U14, but the current animation makes it look like the shield will be just an extra offensive offhand tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
