I'd love to have had twin axes for DB (it is after all dual blades, not dual swords). Axe itself would be pretty cool. And any weapon, unless it's naturally far too clunky (chainsaw, missiles launcher, proper size pike) can be used as a stealth killing tool.

Was trying to recreate this guy;



from Full Metal Alchemist. T'be fair, Barry is more of a Brute/Scrapper, but he can be pretty sneaky when he wants to be. And he carves stuff up nice with those cleavers of his

Who says a Brute/Scrapper can't take the Concealment pool?

Now having dual hatchets as a DB unlockable would be a nice option.

True, but they don't get the satisfaction of tearing someone in half while cackling "Suurrrpriiiiisse!!", do they?

And yes, more hatchet/cleaver models!

AND war mace!
AND ice melee!
AND super strength!


EDIT: Give those whiny scrappers their EM/ too, they're so cute when they cry.

I put up a suggestion that holds little significance and it goes up and down like a roller-coaster; in one day, lol. The last neg being "...cos that's stealthy."
So, we can make bright, glowing, shiny, crackling stalkers covered in electricity...and some one complained that carrying an AXE would detract from your stealth?

O_o

I play my Bane Spider like a War Mace Stalker. Works pretty well.

I'll happily back Battle Axe (and Mace) for proper Stalkers too, hard to argue against the good ol' offscreen-teleporting Stealthy-when-the-plot-demands Axe Slasher being available as a character concept. I've long been a proponent of every set going to those who can use it. I have a concept for an Axe Stalker myself, albeit one that's more (anti-)heroic and will have to wait for GR.

Hmm, perhaps an underhand swing? Note the animation for the Undead Slaying axe, a two-handed blow to the kidneys. (Is the animation the same for everyone? I haven't used it enough to notice, I seem to recall a difference.) That's more subtle and stalkery.

Aim for the groin! Split him in twain, from his nethers to his neck with a single angry blow!

Animation would start off with you crouching down low and bringing your axe down to the ground. The attack would be a devastating backhand that ends with the axe behind you because you swung so hard. Definitely gotta have some knockup with that at the very least (possibly bonus KU mag if you attack from hidden).
