What new weapons would you like to see?

I could see them adding flexible weapons like whips, nunchaku, etc. And also two-handed axes and pole-arms. This would be great for their first expansion. Instead of adding new professions, give each profession at least one new weapon set to play around with, as well as some new utility skills and elites, of course. Anyone else have ideas?

Once you go go whack, you'll never go back.

What is this "whack", you say? Check out the links!

    2h Axes. Would be fun to play a Charr Warrior with a 2h axe.

    EVE Online 21Days Trial

    I also vote for 2H axes.

    Other options would be polearms and spears (for those willing to make that perfect spartan warrior... :))

    Respect, walk, what did you say?

    Polearms. Definitely Polearms. Or 2h axes.

  • StriderXedStriderXed Member Posts: 257

    Lance maybe? Double sided blades? Can't remember the name.

    What ever happened to a good old fashioned club?

     

    Maybe darts would be cool for a thief. Or a blowgun.

    You expect them to add new weapon types, along with new skills for that weapon for all the professions on a regular basis?

     

    ...Really?

    New weapon skins, sure. But actual new weapon types are way more likely to appear in expansions.

    You know....offhand, I can't remember any other MMOs (except 1-2 really crappy Asian titles) that used whips. I'd be interested to see how they'd work.

     

    What profs? not warriors (they have nearly everything already, screw em)....Thief could use it...Mesmer of course (Hehe...the old Domination line all over again)...Necro? Oh and I guess ranger..Beast Tamers and all that.

     

    Alternate idea too..Chakram. I'm thinking about the ones in KoA: Reckoning..they were a nice mid-range weapon with an aoe focus.

    There were chakrams in GW1, but they were skins for daggers/focus. So we might see them again under those weapon types.

    Love to see a Spear that goes well with a Shield - Spartan style.

    They did it for Paragon's in Nightfall - hope it comes back.

    For me personally all I would like to see is the option for rangers to use pistols (preferably dual pistols.)

    Because flying a Minmatar ship is like going down a flight of stairs on an office chair while firing an Uzi.

    Yes really. I rather have new items then new quests and such.

    2H and small 1H crossbows. I love dual pistol but dual hand crossbows would be nice as well.

    His point was that new quests, DEs, etc could be added on the fly pretty frequently...but entire new types of weapons (which means dozens of new skills, possibly traits, synergies, etc) would take time and would be more of an expansion thing.
