lightdragon64 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) So i remember making this rapier design a long time ago and i felt it should re-surface because i put a good amount of my (limited) artistic skills into making it. so basically i believe a rapier in warframe would do mainly puncture damage (and a lot of it) and would use mainy stabbing and thrusting moves, while a true rapier can be used to slash (only slightly however) it is mainly a thrusting sword. So here is some artwork i make for it (a long time ago so excuse any wierd looks it has) let me know what you guys think! and also provide any feedback on the idea of a rapier in warframe (i feel as if it could use one) EDIT: i do want to re-design this rapier one more time... so when i do re-design it i will leave a link in the current post... what i'm doing with remodel thus far... -re-texture and color (done) -make a side view (unsure if i have the capabibilities but i am trying to work on this) -make a 3D model (i found i really suck at 3D modeling because i am stuck with the limited knowlege that photoshop offers)(note: if anybody want's to try their best to re-create the exact weapon in the picture [lotus handbasket and all] i will post it in the new topic once i'm done and give you full credit for the 3D model) Thanks for your support thus far everybody! i love it!

Oraeas Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Cool, ive always wanted a rapier weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken_Child Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I do remember the rapier concept from a long time ago and I've always supported it. I would really like it if the stance was fencing position that would be so awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightsmith Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Other than agreement with the rapier, I think it was a cool idea to implement the Lotus symbol as the guard. One thought is, have the guard have more dimension to it, but when viewed from a specific angle (like down the blade) it forms the lotus symbol. If that makes sense.

(PSN)SteampunkJester Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I've always wanted a rapier so +1 to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnimatedToAll Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 We have no rapiers yet right? +1 for the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuusoq Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Hnnnnngh... I can't upvote adding a rapier enough. Wouldn't even mind if it were to have an energy blade. Just imagining all of the fencing doe makes me salivate.. I hope noone dares to mention Dakra being a rapier already. Since it is not one.

That could make a concept of its own, but I don't think it has anything to do with this one. Edited February 1, 2015 by Artarrwen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunDownGrace Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) there we go,did a slightly better texturing...made the hilt kind of liek the lotus helmet (also i thought the helix design was neat) also if you pay close attention to it,the helix ends in two sharp spikes at the top i have been reading the posts here and it said "something that slashes a little but mostly punctures",also the empty spaces in the blade are more for increasing damage due to what happens when its used to stab everything in the shape of the blade makes it due heavy damage to internal organs when thrusting/impaling and it follows roughly the design of the op`s concept Edited February 1, 2015 by GunDownGrace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
