King Helios -> Weapon Requirements (2/10/2013 12:27:05)

Hello guys and girls.

I was talking with a friend in-game, and we wondered: What if Swords were re-statted to be like normal weapons, but different looks? Weapon requirements would be removed, so swords are like class-specific weapons with different looks and animations.

What would happen?




ND Mallet -> RE: Weapon Requirements (2/10/2013 13:04:26)

Then we'd need to revise all the skill animations to work with swords. It would also make swords in general pointless as they were made with extra stats and damage at the cost of some skills. Definitely would lower the diversity of builds if swords were just reskinned class specifics.

Well, not that many skills require a class-specific weapon. ^

Venom Strike
Plasma Bolt
Fireball
Frenzy
Overload
Atom Smasher
Maul
Massacre
Cheap Shot
Assimilation
Supercharge

I'd be nice for me since (skill) weapon requirements make swords fairly 2nd rate/ useless.




Mother1 -> RE: Weapon Requirements (2/10/2013 18:07:26)

This would just destroy class specific weapons because who would use one of them if they can use a sword to do everything and gain extra stats in the process?

So, mother1, they would provide no advantage, and serve an exclusively ęsthetical purpose.




caser5 -> RE: Weapon Requirements (2/10/2013 18:12:22)

Yeah, the Delta Sword looks better than the Delta Maul, etc. In this scenario one could use the better looking sword and still use Frenzy/Atom Smasher etc.




Mother1 -> RE: Weapon Requirements (2/10/2013 18:14:46)

@ king helios

Then it would destroy the original reason swords were made in the first place. To give extra stats at the cost of not being able to use certain moves. This could hurt diversity and make some people never use sword again.




King Helios -> RE: Weapon Requirements (2/10/2013 18:14:52)

Exactly @caser5, but you'd have to balance the awkwardness of doing, say, Atom Smasher with a sword with its better looks.

@mother1, I am not legitimately suggesting it here; just asking what would happen if said scenario took place.
