I really like how the gaderiffi looks right now - it means I can run around in tusken gear with it

I know a baton doesn't fit in with the name "Fencer", but I don't mind really - I enjoy clubbing stuff

However even you must admit that you'd like to see more SWORDS, you even state "1-handed swording" in your post. This implys that your with us that the Gaffi, though a cool weapon, should have either more skins or just not be our most powerful weapon.

Curved Sword - katana its fast and small

Sword -broad sword(wont work would be considered a twohanded type sword broadswords are humoungous), **edit** sword could be considered since most are used one handed but have an adaptation to be used as a two-handed but your hand rests on the


Vibroblade - - Sai? Small but would require dual wield since sai are used as a pair mostly


Rykk blade - this is a big sword almost compared to a **edit** as mentioned above dmg needs increased on these.. looks like a scimatar to a degree though.


Gaff stick - In all the star wars movies all of them looked identical so no custom models ( IMO )

Stun Baton - Very bland old style English night stick, add a little graphic of sparks on the tip of this and then we would have a cool PvP weapon


Generic Add ons - Hilt blades mentioned above, some tassle added to ends of some swords like the tai chi sword has, for flair effect.


All i can think of...at the moment

I know, but a lot of people say they want rapiers etc. Fencer is just 1-handed swording, its not meant to be like the guys dressed in white suits with little gimpy **edit** swords.


But i uderstand what your saying, the best weapon should probably be an actual sword, but I also dont think that batons would be eliminated. Thye just need to reset the weapons. Rykk blade should really powerful but with higher ham costs/higher speed... curved blade should be a lower damge but it should have low ham costs an low speed, etc.


The current weapons should be fixed before new ones are implemented.

From a crafting standpoint, I'd like to see something like being able to choose both the color of your weapon and the style, similar to how Tailors can currently choose clothes colors and Architects can choose styles for certain items like House deeds and Gardens and such.

For each weapon we could have several different style options and some appropriate colors (black, silver, red, etc [maybe some blended colors like silver/red to convey a 'blood-drenched' look]).

Gaffi should not be our main.


I really like the design of the curved sword. With a little improved design, it could do as our master weapon.

We use a freaking Stick....


thats all I can really say about our weapon selection...it sucks....


Personally I think a new rapier style sword should be added...something at the MASTER level...

this is crap! this is star wars! we need something technologicallt advanced! like a heat based sword that radiates when used, or an energy based club of some sort, and finally we really need a vibrosabre, the vibroblade to me works very well with the whole starwars feel, but we need something with a little more...length


as far as the stun baton, i think its excellent, but some cool stunning animations, sounds and sparks would be nice, and tuskens are meant to use 100 year old weapons so gaffi works just fine...but maybe it shouldnt be MOST powerful

As a reply to Zoltahn, there are one handed Broadswords. Its a variation of the rapier with a larger flat blade.


As a weapon smith as well as fencer this idea is amazing and would be way to much fun for me. Customizable blade lengths aa well as hilts would be an amazing addition.


As far as the weapons themselves i would like to see the Sword a little longer, as well as the Vibroblade. Unfortunately my main weapon if a Gaffi and not even a sword and would love to see that change. I love the


I love the Stun Baton as it is cause i think it adds a level of humiliation when you beat someone down with it in PvP. I call it the VibroMax 3000.


Anywho........great idea.

/agree on the graffi stick not being our main.


Perhaps we could replace its looks with a rapier. A dual wield at master level (as mentioned above by Chaser) would definitely be nice.


Vibroblade should be longer. I don't think the customization is easily implimented... so no comments on that.


Rykks should also be better than they are now=) If there is no master level weapon, the Rantok should be craftable with better stats. Oh yes, and longer. It looks wimpy, like the vibroblade.

if this is stupid sorry

well everything is fine in the way of fencer weapons goes but as a few people did say stun baton looks abit wierd , why not add options for weaponsmiths to change colours of the weapons ? or give smugglers or a option for one prof to spray paint a weapon ? that way maybe a prof mite make abit more money ? i dont know but it would be a very kool idea. from my view .

post comments on this if you like

I was looking in a vendor for a new gaffi, mins all beaten out from janta hunting, and a saw arancor teethcurved sword. I thought to myself that if it just had half decent stats then it might be of some use. I could picture wielding it and it gave me chills. BUT it wont give anyone chills if it stays at this level. We, as fencers, desperately need new weapons.


The customazation idea i have thought of many times. It could work just the same as the jedi hilts, the further up the trees you get the more hilts you have acsess to. This would allow self dependency, but it would cut out weaponsmiths from the equation. So maybe the hilts would need weaponsmith components. Also the devs could give us the option, maybe that weaponsmith hilts made by weaponsmiths reduced ham/speed costs. And those made by fencers were purely for decoration.


Lets keep this thread bumped!
