1337 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) BEFORE I GET STARTED, Warframe Developers, I recommend you add a suggestions forum area under the "Improving Warframe" topic. People can get very creative! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Concept Art SPECIFICATIONS: Description: Forged by the Corpus using Orokin technology, the Cerberus terrorizes the solar system delivering both fast and deadly strikes. Stats: Type: Melee Base Damage: 15 Base Firing Rate: 0.85 Accuracy: 100.00 Base Charge Damage: 145 Base Charge Speed: 0.80 Ignores Armor Notable Extras: -Blueprint drop only (1 Orokin Cell, 1 Morphics, 1 Gallium, 200 Rubedo) -When released on full charge, instead of usual over-shoulder horizantal swipe, its an overhead swing down vertical strike, splitting the enemy into two. This sword was made to specialize in rather charge attacks and discourages the short but fast tap attack. Edited January 21, 2013 by Perx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konnstruct Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I respect the amount of work you probably put in here, but it wouldn't match anything and would be an eyesore when it is sitting on the back of a futuristic, techy Warframe holding futuristic, techy guns.

1337 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Changed the description and art to coming soon, updating to match the futuristic look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kokuen Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Someone has played .Hack//G.U. before? the last of Haseo's gun is pretty awesome and somewhat techie, it's a dual pistol with some "blade" on that...

Kokuen Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 actually how do you post the image itself in the post? -.-" tried the [ img ] [ /img ] coding but dont work lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ced23Ric Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) What sword? What I am saying, is, the proposed stats offer nothing that one of the swords we have right now doesn't offer. If anything, it is weaker. The weakest melee weapons in game have a base damage of 25. Regardless of whatever cool art you have planned, it is not necessary by functionality, it doesn't offer anything. actually how do you post the image itself in the post? -.-" tried the [ img ] [ /img ] coding but dont work lol Works perfectly fine.

What I'm trying to make is a sword that's more for charging and discourages normal swinging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ced23Ric Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Such an option already exists, called Plasma Sword and the similiarily working Dark Sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1337 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 What I am saying, is, the proposed stats offer nothing that one of the swords we have right now doesn't offer. Also, it has the highest base charge damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1337 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Stats look like just another sword. Don't see the necessity. Also, you don't? Take a real life example. You have an aftermarket car that goes 210 mph but looks like poo. You could choose a lamborghini that also goes 210 but looks better. PREFERENCE OF APPEARANCE. Another example, you like Pepsi. You could go for Coke, as they taste similar, but you go for Pepsi cause it has a blue can. PREFERENCE OF APPEARANCE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ced23Ric Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 There is 14 melee weapons - what makes you think we need a 15th that goes in same direction as two already go? You are not offering anything outstanding or necessary, is what I am saying. I am not trying to discredit your work, I am merely pointing out that you are working on something that is already covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakalwe Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) Perx, Ced is trying to tell you that your idea doesn't add anything new. By all means, create a new sword, and the vertical slash thing is a decent idea (it has been suggested a few times before), but we already have two swords that have the primary funciton of being the strongest charge attackers in the game. Creating a sword that has an even better charge would render these two absolutley useless. Unless you can think of other ways to limit it so the stronger vertical slash is balanced by a downside that leaves the Plasma and Dark swords as viable options, this new idea is just a stronger replacement to a weapon that exists already.

The vertical slash is suppose to be average damage, the thing that sets this one above is its ability to ignore armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prusiano Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I'd like to see a melee weapon stealth focus, so you can grab an enemy from his back and take it to other place and kill him quietly to prevent any alarm being activated, something that cuts his throat would be awesome! Of course should have cons, like only one target at time, but also pros like make a certain death of the target, no partial damage of it. No matter what if you took him from his back, he is dead (Excluding Bosses and Special foes obviously). Also may be a faction which is less vulnerable to this weapon, i would say infected IMO, but i also like the idea of cutting Corpus troats, because they're kind of HeadShot Proof, would be nice sliding a knife or scalpel (maybe a laser stuff), below the helmet. Also throwing melee weapons is a good idea, i know the definition wouldn't match cause they're not melee, but they wouldn't make noise when hitting a camera, they should probably have ammo otherwise they would have cooldown time, and i don't like CD, but that means if you run out of ammo you are going to do NO damage at all, pros and cons that have to be balanced. grenades i guess is something that will come eventually, why do they(enemy factions) have grenades and tenno don't? not fair! lol Some ideas i hope they could be useful. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
