tocorro Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) Can we Excal fans have a quest ? Let's say : while playing as Excalibro slay in melee mode 1000 enemies [or even 10 000 - will be much harder] with Skana (regular - single) - this will unlock another part of quest in which You could obtain an ancient orokin blueprint allowing You to reforge Skana into Caliburn (King Arthur's sword) - one and a half hand, fast broadsword with greater range than Skana What do You guys think Of course it would be just one of many to come quests.

Llyssa Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I guess it might be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClockworkSpectre Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Bleh I would have to use a skana again, no thanks. Thats not to say that I don't like the quest Idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your face when you realize that everyone using the Dakra Prime is really just using a Skana with a different skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vunie Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 no theres better things to do in quest than having to use excalibur or a skana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tocorro Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 Well I liked the idea of reforging old weapons into something better. Old Skana maybe isn't the best, but a quest requires some hardships (like using this -ekhm- sword to slay so many enemies) - a reward must be earned in some way ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaugahn Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 You know, I've actually always wondered if something like this could be done with the Skana. I mean, read the description... "This simple blade becomes immensely powerful in the hands of a master." It says that, but the Skana is still one of the worst melee weapons in the game stat-wise. Maybe the Skana could be an evolving weapon or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClockworkSpectre Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Ah, hahaha. Your face when you realize that everyone using the Dakra Prime is really just using a Skana with a different skin. Its still not a skana, there is a skana prime, and its not the Dakra. If it had the same stats as the skana you could claim that but it isn't.

[DE]Grzegorz Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Dakra Prime is basically Skana with 4/5 Pressure Point pre-equipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaugahn Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 It most certainly could do just that. I'd like to have something like that : What if every 1000 or so kills you could reforge it again to improve it even more? That could also work for the other starter weapons. That way new players wouldn't feel pressured to buy slots and new guns, as they could upgrade their starter gear to be more effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I don't mind, but it would have to stop somwhere, for it not to overpower Prime Gear. Unless it would be an introduction to Evolve weapons ;] this way You will have to invest a LOT of work to make weapons awesome - obtainable for everyone, but You couldn't get it right of the bat or purchase bp and parts from chat. Makes sens for me. Edit : Reforge and add a new sigil to the blade, or reforge and the shape changes ? Which one do You have in mind ?

If it had the same stats as the skana you could claim that but it isn't. What? No, they function identically. It's like the Nikana and Dragon Nikana. Dragon Nikana looks prettier and has upgraded stats. This "reforged" skana would look prettier and have upgraded stats, just like the Dakra.

Like, it could retain the Skana look, but just be fancier. That way you could feel like you were upgrading your item, and other players could see how good you are by looking at it.

(PSN)Strifedecer Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Would be nice if we had a quest to upgrade weaps we really like, kinda like the whole Nikana -> Dragon Nikana thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but with actual quest, not just -> buy BP from market Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about anyone else, but that's like... 2 missions. I don't think reforging the skana every other mission would be a good concept.
