(PSN)gutbrucer Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Not sure if this has been covered, but for the past couple weeks I've been thinking about how cool it would be to have a spear that could be thrown as a melee weapon. I picture it looking like and being used like a shaolin spear. It would be primarily puncture damage, which melee seems to lack heavily in, plus would have reach, which punture based melee weapons lack in. If they do bring back charged attacks, you would be able to throw the spear, having to retreive it if done. The benefit being that you could perform ranged stealth attacks and that it would penetrate corpus nullifiers' shields, at the risk of disarming yourself and having to retrieve your weapon. Killing an enemy with a thrown attack would ragdoll them and pin them to a wall like the bows and Boltor do. Second is the rope dart. If you don't know what it is, you should look it up. I want this weapon simpley because it the fighting style is awesome. I picture one attack making it so your tenno harpoons an enemy and drags them in closer. This would be a fun utility. Plus, i want to stick grineer scorpions and infested ancients, then drag them around every corner of the map for a change. Opinions? If these weapons interest anybody else, please plus one it. Hopefully DE will notice and take interest. Edited March 26, 2015 by (PS4)gutbrucer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavelord Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I would really like a spear or a naginata for that matter, not so sure about throwing it, but is the case the some stances throw the weapon, like scythes, so it could be incorporated into a combo.

S13gtastic Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Gotta admit a throwable spear sounds really appealing to me at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat_Nom Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) On the subject of throwable spears, I'd love to use javelins in the game. My Boltor prime's ragdolling is getting a bit stale.Heck, why not throw our axes too. Imagine heaving an entire Scindo prime and watching it spiral into your target's head.

rainxmachina Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 We could use a Glaive-esque spear. Meaning, we melee with it like a polearm, then hold the button to throw it like a Glaiv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknow99 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I prefer a Kusarigama Mmmmiossssss.... ...Yeah, and nunchuks. Spear,kusarigama, nunchuks & rapier and we're good. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainDreamer Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Both has been suggested. They are looking into the Kusarigama weapon since I believe that it was a winner of some weapon concept contests, but implementing it is harder than they thought.

(PSN)gutbrucer Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Ok, make it the spear and the kusarigama, because that thing is pretty sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
styxonfire Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I've been hoping for a trident, myself. If we get a trident that exclusively uses stances from Staves and Polearms... I'm gonna flip sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowBroker-X11 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'd like a rapier and a katar. katar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)fizzer94 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'd like a lance. Something that can be thrusted like a spear in most situations, but can also be used while sprinting to impale enemies onto it. Really strong against a single target, but weak against groups. And a halberd would be nice as well. Long, sweeping axe swings and thrusts that do either slash or puncture damage depending on combos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHIR0B0N Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I would also like a spear, but also maybe, a scimitar. The oriental blade was famed for its slicing abilities when horse riding. The curved blade wouldn't get stuck in a body like a normal stabbing sword would, and to top it off, they were actually lightweight. Since Tennos gotta go fast, it would be fitting, to some point :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryme Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) And actual pole-arm sized scythe, not an over-sized kama/battle-axe wanna-be. Edited March 27, 2015 by Ryme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
