What would I do without players like you to point out such mistakes promptly?  |

With this patch I can choose from the Blade, Sword, or Katana all on the broadsword character in AE. The same applies to dual blades. IE: A broadsword powerset AE minion can use the Vanguard katana in one hand. I'm wondering if this applies to playable characters, I have no broadsword or dual blades characters that high to test it. |

In Demon's Souls for the PS3, you can double grip those weapons because I use those very weapons on my Knight in it.
Also the Flamberge, and Scimitar <-- especially this one, use dex stats more than strength in that game are quite fast.
you can buy a dual grip Scimitar too : http://www.kultofathena.com/product~...d+Scimitar.htm
here's the two grip hilt Flameberge (real weapon), similar in design to the one in Demon's Souls

Now that I think about it, that would only work in the MA.... I forgot about there being powerset restrictions on players being able to unlock those custom weapons with Vanguard merits. Look for that to be working with player characters Soon(tm). |
Thanks BABs, I'm glad I brought this forward now!

Why, it's almost as if SCEI designed those weapons to be usable two-handed because their game supports alternating between single- and double-handed grips, in exactly the way CoX doesn't!|

What you can do with the models and animations in another game, sadly, has zero relation to the pre-existing models and animations in this game.

Good. This means you now have the free time to animate for us some stable server maps!|

What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

Obviously, if you go into a Chinese tea shop carrying one of those swords, the shopkeeper will give you a discount (unless he has a larger sword stashed behind the counter).

I don't RP, and *I've* been asking for the ability to simply Walk!
Thanks for this, BAB! :D

The Flamberge is a two handed weapon...
The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

The larger blades would look kinda rediculous, I think. The normal Rularuu dual blades are smaller, about 2 scale feet long or so.|

I've got a katana / sr stalker, and when I unlocked the Rularuu Blade I got this /massive/ sword almost bigger than my avatar. I love it, it just looks so right swinging this massive blade around. I've also got a DB / WP scrapper, and I've been working on the rularuu badge unlock for the blades... but evertime I see somebody who has Rularuu blades on a Dual Blades, they always look really small, like they're about half the size of the katana version. Is there a difference in rularuu blade sizes? And if there is, can the large katana blade be added to the dual blades set? |

BABS,
All I wanna know is.. when am I gonna get my dual archery sets using three handed composite crossbows.. and yes if you could have them use the dual pistols animations, we may let you keep your job, on the condition you include the doves from the HeroCon demonstration.. that would be greeeaaat. *sips coffee and makes sure your memos have the right TPS forms on top*
Love,

I have been waiting YEARS for this! (Checks to make sure it's not April 4th...)
My enemies will now dread my unhurried approach!

How exactly does a level 50 get the walk power? Been trying my damnedest to figure it out. *3 year idiot question*

To be honest, I haven't tried walking yet. I just heard about it tonight - but I'm so excited! I can't wait to get back home after work and try it out. Alas, I'm busy for the next two evenings so completing missions without due haste shall have to wait until the weekend.

Walk towards someone, then stop and use the "angry" emote. This looks best with the huge body type in my opinion.

The Walk toggle was removed in a patch last night. It should be re-introduced at some point in the future with the next patch to come. My money is on Friday.

There was a stability problem with the patch that added Walk, so they removed the patch again to fix it - so we'll have to wait just a little longer to move slowly |
