Any weapon that has a different Damage type than kinetic or stun would be very useful!

Also a little AP wouldn't hurt us, maybe something like a medium AP energy sword that had high ham costs to balance things out.

I'd like to see a true fencing rapiermaybe with designable hilts, and maybe something like a katana sword. I think using a whip as a one handing melee weapon is cool, even though it isn't apart of the fencing professional. I like using my Ryyk Blade, and would probably use it more often if I could the same MAX damage as the gradaffibaton. I truely feel that a blade not a baton should wield the most damage for the fencer.

we got 6 weapons we can use how about making them different so each are useful instead of 4 weapons doing about the same damage and all doing the same kind of damage?


how about some electric damage on a rantok.. acid damage on a curved or something to that effect..


lets be honest with doc buffs and composite we face gods that we cant hurt,,, the only weapon we have that can do anything wont do more than 50% damage because of the armor mod.. the black dildo of doom that does crap for damage anyway

I want a combination.


Rapier and Dagger


You hold the dagger in one hand to deflect (Just as a fencer would)

and use the rapier to stab (it's a stabing weapon and SUCKS for slashing).


Yeeeaaaah. That's the true definition of half-man, half-fencer. 100% Badass

Ooh...the Adumari Blastsword! Definitely energy damage, definitely one-handed, definitely a sword, has appeared in the EU books.

Bit of a continuity problem in that the book says the planet was forgotten about before the time of the Empire and wasn't rediscovered until the New Republic, but I'm sure the concept of a sword like that wouldn't necessarily be unique to one planet, would it?

How about these:


Vibrosword (yes, we all agree) certifiable somewhere on the second rung of the fencer ladder

AP2

125-200

3.0

25/45/25 (who knows)

This oneneeds no explanation


Sickle- certified at novice fencer

AP0

75-125

1.7

whatever HAM the devs feel is right

This would give the novice fencer something to use to obtain the speed bonuses they'd get in tur future, trading damage to do it though.


Electro-Scimitar

AP0

160-200 Electricity damage

3.0

40/60/20

Just for the rarer damage form


Cryo-dagger

AP1

75-125 Cold damage

2.0

11/22/11

Again, just for the damage type


Gungan Mace

AP2

130-325 blast damage

4.0

50/50/30

Swordsmen get the power hammer, we need something to compete


Electro-whip (energy whip?)

AP1 if electric, AP0 if energy

100-200

3.5

35/30/35

Because the other poster put it up, and it's a damn good idea.


We already have a katana-like weapon with the curved, and the scimitar is almost like the ryyk, although more like a half circle.

Fencers about fast an quick foot work an damage to. You have to remember that amping the speed to 7 or higher serves no purpose for a one handed weapon. Your making this fencing weapon to be as slow as a swordsmen or pikemans main weapon. While tka's get off with uber sain fast attack an accuracy. Yes the speed could be adjusted lets say around 2.6 to 3.2 that would even it out. But this weapon is only avible to a master fencer.





Hrmm perhaps i didn't make it clear that you'd be using this weapon at a .7-.75 speed if you were to have a +90 speed mod and this weapon would be available at master level. If a weapon were to ever be proposed to the Dev team it would have to be balanced and cranking up the VISIBLE speed is a good way to do that. Having a speed of 7 for all to see would make people think "wow, fencer doesn't need to be nerfed" which if it were say 2.6 people would cry about it all over.... at least i think my math on that speed is correct

First, make the Rantok craftable.


Second: Plasma rapier


Danage type: heat


Armor piercing: light


Damage: 100-320


Speed: 4.5


Wound: 35%


Specials Cost


H: 15


A: 35


M: 10


Make it look like a red light saber so that the jedi get pissed off. This would be a well crafted example.

I just want some things with blades on them, the stick is nice for dmg. But I mean come on, blademaster blade. We need rapiers, stilettos, and all that such. What you say not star warrsy enough, been said here before VIBROrapier, VIBROstiletto. I don't think energy blades would be good, I mean cool yes but then you get screams from the Jedi and I only want a cooler looking weapon. Or maybe if they could just make the Rykk blade better.

I like the idea of the whip...that would be so cool to see! and if not that but make a traditinol raiper sword, with some insane speed like 1.0 so fencers are like the fastest attackers in the game next to pistoleers
