Q F E
We need more QFE's on this, Forget the new weapons, something like this was promised and needs to be fulfilled. its not about balance or how well it is, make it a 1/1 damage weapon, Hell just make it a display for all that cares. You say your going to honor a players death with something in game to symbolize them for their dedication to the game then do it, hell rename something thats in there already, nobody cares about the name thats on it now if its because of her. Its been almost a year now, Dont let it go by without the devs doing anything they said they would.
I am already checking into this.Message Edited by Calandryll_SOE on 02-11-2005 08:32 AM
That is good to hear. I did not know of her unfortunate death before, but I do know that she was a great person. And her determination, knowledge and spirit made her the greatest combat correspondant yet.
I for one will be hanging Raphayl's blade on a wall in my house.
And even though it is late, I'd like to offer my deepest condolences to anyone who knew Raphayl.

Wow... that's a great circular arguement. If we want the game to be more star wars then just put anything in it because its already star wars. I can't wait for the legions of cyborg bunnys running around hunting vampires that will then be star wars having been added to galaxies. Soon to be followed no doubt with a tie in novel entitled "Star Wars Cottontail: The cyborg bunny vampire slayer of Dantooine".Now I dont care who you are, thats funnyHowever they cant just put in cyborg bunnys of doom. Anything that enters SWG has to get a stamp of approval from Lucas Arts. Its that stamp that makes it EU not the fact that its in the game (however since it can not be put in the game w/o that stamp it kinda goes both ways)Lucas Arts does not want to ruin the SW franchise so they will not allow anything that is rediculusly un Star Warsy. (Cyborg doom bunnys)Thusly we can safely assume that if they are telling us about thise weapons they have been approved by Lucas arts already and have become part of the EU
I take it you've never read the really early (early 80s) Star Wars comic strips (the Marvel ones, and the ones syndicated in newspapers that were collected into books a few years ago). Six foot tall cyborg bunnies already exist in the EU (although since the modern EU revolution they've been mainly disowned and forgotten, with good reason
).

It seems to me, TH acknowledged that it wasn't the best idea to release a weapon in her name, but rather a better tribute to her might be a Fencer Questgiver NPC that reflected her personality, which would officially make her Star Wars canon - the best tribute one could offer in an environment like this, in my opinion. I'm digging for said post now.
Edit: Here is said post. Its just Minerunner talking about a previous discussion he had with TH, but I think this is a wonderful idea.

Could you please please change the melee weapons info on those webpages to clarify if they are swordsman or fencer. *grovel*
