Brief Description: This is an unnamed short-sword (I leave that up to you guys) that can be sheathed to the Warframe's left arm and when drawn, both sword and scabbard can be used (similar to that of Silva & Aegis)

Stance Mod: It is best used with the Eleventh Storm Stance 

Attributes: Due to this weapon being a Scabbard and Shortsword, attacks are rather quick, and instead of a shield, defense in lower than other weapons when blocking and the short-sword has lower reach. But the main part of the weapon is what happens when channeled. the sword produces an energy blade that deals more damage and increases the reach of the weapon itself, not only that but if this weapon has an installed elemental mod, the channeled blade increases the chance of said damage (though not shown, the channeled blade also shows the elemental damage in itself)

PS: If this weapon is chosen, you have permission to alter the look of the weapon to better fit the game.

Pretty slick sword mate also, while your permission is great, the OP does state the rule:

We already have a tenno scythe

As it was stated in PAX aus 2016 the ones in game are more of 'glorified pickaxes' then scythes.

[killstock]

Name: Jembalang

FACTION: Infested

Brief Description: This is a dagger weapon,it uses dagger stances. It has two forms:

1st is just like any dagger except it releases 3 small bombs around user when a combo is completed while channelling.

2nd Is when a charge attack is made it will shoot out like thors hammer dealling impact and blast and return to user

Weapon Name: Katsicor (from the word Katsir wich means harvest in Hebrew)

Faction: Cephalon

Weapon type/Stance: Big Scythe that uses polearm stance (Shimmering Blight)

Description: The Katsicor is a weapon that  deals Magnetic and high Slash type damage with low Status chance, a critical chance of 25%  and crit multiplier of 3.0x. The weapon take elements in design from the other cephalon weapons primarily the Heliocor. When the weapon is holstered the energy effects of the blade disappears until the weapon is used. The unique mechanic of this weapon will be that the charge attack of this weapon releases a a energy beam that travel up to 15 mts (similar to Excalibur's exalted blade), the beam can only effect the first enemy that hits with no splash damage,(the beam can't pass through obstacles). If the enemy is killed with the beam then  the target is scanned (this will require to have equiped Synthesis Scanners) if the enemy is not killed by the beam then it wil be blind from  5 to 8 seconds suceptible to stealth attacks

Tailos

[ShadowZealot7]

Faction: Infested

Stance: Claws

Brief Description:  The Amyplagas gathers 'awakening' stacks every time it lands a hit while channeling. Every stack supplies significant bonus reach (~10-20% /stack), viral damage (~5% /stack), and channeling efficiency (8% /stack), maxing out at ten stacks, rewarding the user for feeding the swarm within it energy. The stacks begin to decay/ disappear after 7 seconds. While channeling at ten stacks, the warframe's highlights spew infested ichor along with the usual effects. The Amyplagas is designed to be a powerful Status/Channeling weapon.

Damage Types: Puncture/Slash

Important Stats:  -Low Critical

                             -High Status Chance

                             -Increased Channeling Damage

Altered Faction description/ name of the weapon is now just in the description.

[Murgurl]

Everyday is leg day if you have MOA leg

Made this thinking of April Fools concept

Faction: Corpus / Infested
Brief Description: A broken off shockwave MOA leg that is handled as hammer. Its ground slam will create shock wave that will knock enemy down just like shockwave MOA does. Going off of this concept, I thought just like few other corpus weapons, there could be Mutalist MOA leg that will create puddle of toxic puddle instead.

Name: Apofasi
Faction: Orokin
Type: Rapier
Description: "A long forgotten Ceremonial Rapier connecting Judgement and Decisiveness. It retains a razor sharp edge and point giving a high slash, a strong puncture thrust but no impact. The texture of the blade does generate a static electric discharge which can build over time attacking one target in a blast or when attacking a group discharges to nearby enemies."

Being of Orokin decent there is a rare Primed version (as in image - gold inlays would otherwise be gunmetal grey) with an increase of stats across the board barring impact and crit multiplier in comparison to it's standard form - if no prime possible - image shows standard. 

Trivia: A broad single edged rapier, a Apofasi's heft balances what would be a superior blade in speed to an average of 1.05 in favour of high slash and sturdy puncture. Due to it's innate electrical discharge over a group or blast on single targets - additional status mods effecting proc % has reduced effect though elemental mods effect the relevant effect strength as usual (Heat/Cold for Blast & Electricity for Discharge). The convex to concave curve in the blade enhances cutting power generating a larger than average crit multiplier.

Suggested
Speed 1.05
Status 25 or 30% (with reduced effectiveness of status increase mods)
Crit 20%
Multiplier x2.5

 

 

That's hot. Want.

Magnetor:

Desc:
This light, yet powerful throwing disc wreaks havoc upon the most dangerous enemies.

Stats:
Attack Speed - 1.3
Channeling Dmg - 2.5x
Critical Chance - 15%
Critical Multiplier - 1.5
Status Chance - 30%
Flight Speed - 55 m/s
Throw Attack Dmg - 200 Puncture Damage
Slam Attack - 35
Slide Attack - 75

Damage:
30 Magnetic Damage

Mechanics:
Channeling and then throwing the weapon will leave a trail of electricity that deals 10% of the total magnetic damage continually when an enemy steps into the trail. Canceling the channeling will cause the weapon to immediately return to your Warframe's hands. The width of the trail is affected by Reach and Primed Reach. This Glaive also bounces around a lot more than the other ones. Another cool thing to add is that the center spins one way, and the outer edge spins the other way, this animation increases when you channel.

Now this is where it gets interesting. The disc AND the trail attract bullets from enemy fire. The damage absorbed will be multiplied by the channeling multiplier on your melee weapon. The damage will channeled into your next melee strike or throw. 

Once the disc has returned and has taken at least 1 dmg, it will not absorb more damage on the next throw, it will simply release the damage in the way that I have mentioned in the paragraph above this one.

To compensate for the increased number of bounces, canceling the channeling with cause the disc to immediately return to your Warframe's hand. Note that it will still release the damage that it has taken.

So uh, how do you guys like this one? I felt that there aren't enough Glaives in Warframe, and the Tenno and Grineer have one, so why not the corpus? I also felt that channeling in Warframe is kinda underrated, disregarding Life Strike. So many feels, lol.

Small changes

[(PSN)Dark_Sky_Kojiro]

faction: Tenno

grip type: ( polearm and nunchaku)

the whiplash weapon of two grips one using distance the polearm and the other using speed the nunchaku both using the bladed end as a slashing weapon small fast cuts as the other deep distance slashes. charging the weapon in stance would alternate the fighting style from polearm to nunchaku stance. for the use in the melee as both offensive and defensive fighting perfect for balanced fighter.

[SilentTangier]

Apologies for the terrible art, I'm an engineer and can't art at all...
 

 

Faction: Grineer

Grip: Throwing

Description:  The pinnacle of Grineer Engineering, this thrown-type melee weapon will bounce around the room showering enemies in a hail of bullets.  

Works as described, it does very little direct damage but the Grakatas shoot while in flight, which is where most of this weapon's damage would come from.

Triple Grakatas?  Grakata Trifecta?  I'm bad with names, but after the Twin Grakatas were a thing I knew we needed a melee weapon made of 3 Grakatas to complete the Grakata-in-all-weapon-slots loadout.

[(XBOX)G0T YA 4 L1FE]

So we make a melee weapon with a type that already exists?

Regret

 

Faction: Tenno (Stalker Variant)

Grip Type: Blade-Whip

 

 

Description: The weapon is designed to draw enemies close before cutting them down with critical slash attacks. The blade itself reflects this through its curves and serrations. The blade sports a massive sickle like relief edge, ideal for sundering armor or impaling foes. The chain has an uninviting pointed shape, meant to discourage any apprehension of the weapon and promote "catching" on armor plates and exposed flesh. The barb utilizes a grip similar to the blade to prevent unintentional self damage. The barb's numerous serrations and gaps are designed to bury and hook themselves into tissue, making escape impossible.

 

[LUMPdizzle666]

I want a Large Sythe - srry my art is so bad lol
Overall Length is the same as the Broken Scepter or Galentive
Main Slash Damage but shoudl also have Pierce (tip of the blade) and Impact (from it general size)
Leach Energy maybe Health
Slight smoke effect the color of it energy
Collapse while holsstered... I know there is already a pitch for that but it would look silly to have this huge thing on your back
Heavy Weapon stance... The attack should show it but it should be the fastest of the heavies
Thinking maybe the hand positions should be further apart

My weapon is called Discidium,

 Its a greatsword type weapon and also has time based lore.

the backstory for it is its an old sword akin to that of War that was lost in the void, only now its reapppearing through rifts in time and due to this players could get the weapon via moon spy missions or a new event if you wanted to.

 It has the ability to to cut a rift in time when doing a charge attack.By rift in time i mean that it leaves a glowing slash of energy hanging in midair till an enemy runs into into it, unlike excal's ability which makes slashes that cut through the air and then disappear these slashes stay till an enemy hits them

The blue part of the weapon is energy and has an effect similar to that of the arcturus syandana.

Description: Feel the sorrow the void has come to bear. A reminder of the past this weapon feels out of place, but familiar somehow...

"I'm detecting a large security force heading your way. It's the Heartless."

[Red_Tesseract]

Name: Gazeuse
Faction: Grineer
Grip: Whip
Brief Description: "Grineer engineers were able to trap some of the hazardous gases from the gas giants like Jupiter and confine it into the extremity of this metallic chain whip in order to swing it against their enemies. Still unstable, the gas ball will pulse like it's breathing, and is likely to expand when moving at high velocity."

 

 The ball will only get very big on finishers, or the last hit from a combo, when pulsing it only grows a little. The yellow parts of the handle and the ball are supposed to be in a color similar to the grakata and/or buzlok.

[(PSN)MidSouthReaper]

Faction: Tenno

Description: This is Ether Sworgun, a sword and pistol. In sword form it emits ether energy from the hilt to form a blade and uses sword grip type and duel sword grip type. Tapping second fire will transform it from sword to pistol for limited time or until energy rounds deplete and will use pistol and duel pistol grip type. The ether desends back into the hilt and turns into ether energy rounds. Charged attack in sword form will release a wave of ether energy like Excalibur exalted blade and in pistol form will release like staticor. Also like chroma, it does elemental damage based on the ether color along with penetration and slash. Uses a new stance mod, westword slinger: Sword does slashes and forward jabs, pistol adds gun slinger motion like Mesa.

Qahira - Polearm/Heavy Blade. Faction: Baro Ki'Teer/Martian Colonists. Name background: Arabic name for Cairo and Mars, means Vanquisher or Conqueror.

Description: This ancient polearm swirls with mystic energy and springs to new life as defender and protector. Equip a heavy melee stance and watch as Qahira spreads his wings into a fearsome battle axe.

One of many weapons the colony turned to in times of greatest need. Before there was Inaros, there was Qahira.

In battle axe mode Qahira has an on equip animation where the battle axe portion of the wings unfolds from the main blade. The handle also glows with Prisma energy.

[(PSN)chaosfur]

Name:Gladimos

Type(stance):Sword and Whip/Dual Sword

Faction:Tenno

Description:"A strange weapon dating back to the old war comprised of a large, one handed sword and a smaller sword with a launchable hook to either reel enemies in or pull the Tenno toward surfaces. Can use stance mods for either sword and whip or dual swords, either way a charged attack launches the hook."

Anyway sorry about how garbage my drawing is. I had done more but this was the best looking one. Thanks for considering my submission btw. :)

[XxAzatronxX]

Faction: Tenno

Brief Description: This Axe has a Heavy weapon grip-type (Sort of like the Galatine) and is sheathed behind the back. The fire on the blade is optional. Energy surges through the openings on the blade (The Blue irregular shapes on the blade).

I haven't played Warframe long enough to know the weapon types and all so hopefully this is enough, also I couldn't come up with a name so could you give it a name?
