Early Customization Suggestion for Titan Weapons


AkuTenshiiZero

 

Posted

As some may or may not know, Titan Weapons will be a new, two handed, melee weapon set that will come in the wake of issue 21 (but not WITH issue 21, I should note), and it will involve HUUUGE weapons. Weapons Samuel Tow would approve of, but I for one shall not unless the following weapon customization is available for it:

A downsized version of Jurassik's car hammer in the form of a Motorcycle hammer. Further more, the motorcycle must be Ducati or Harley.

What do you folks think? I was thinking it could be secured on pipes and steel rebar since PCs are bit small for full on girders.

YES!!!



*edit*
I really have no complaints about the suggestion and give my full support of it. So long as the set has a sword that's bigger for women than the damn Legacy Broadsword and actually looks something like a sword, I'm happy with it.

I just hope the VFX team dont set colours for the FX of some attacks, like they did in the past with Broadsword, Battle axe, Katana, with those higher tier attacks with red and yellow flashes. I rather have some golden or metallic sparks like dual blades.
Now, some options I would love to see (Most of the screens are from Aion and Blade & Soul)

Staffs. Yeah, I hope we can hit mobs with this too.





Axes



Huge swords

You could just make it a Vespa hammer (the moped, not the car, iirc the names...) (and not the princess either, for that matter! )

Hey, they already have the bike model used by Thugs Bruiser summon...slapping a few girders around that could work?

I think it should be random to whatever map your character is fighting on, like if you are outside in a city area, it could be a traffic light or a motorcycle or car, in a warehouse it could be a girder, a defunct Council Mech, etc..

I want a Minion-on-a-Stick weapon. I don't particularly care which faction the minion comes from.

An anchor would also be awesome.

Actually, I think I should make an extra suggestion here:

A very large broadsword.

The thing is, from the pictures we've seen of this set, it seems to use really... Weird weapons. And I count Cloud Strife's Buster sword as "really weird." And while I DO LOVE the Buster sword, I want to see a more traditional sword, just very large. In fact, the Legacy Broadsword only much bigger would be a good idea.

Also, a very large two-handed axe is also a must. It doesn't have to be the classic fantasy double-bearded axe. Just so long as it's very big, very heavy and kind of looks like an axe, I'll be happy.

Agreed. Personally, my preference would be for an executioner-style axe.

The anchor would be very cool, but that would fit more with a Ball and Chain power, which i'm also hoping is in the cards.

Come to think of it, with the alternate animations we've been seeing added to certain power sets, i'd kinda like to see this Titan weapon set have 2 weapon/animation paths. The really big sword/girder/signpost/motorcycle/etc set, and the more flowing "attached to a chain set", which would cover heavy chains/wrecking balls/anchors/steel cables/pitbull on a leash/etc.


Check out my "Rule Britannia" series if you feel like something different. The arcs are #19599, #20575, #23977, #134775, #134923 and #144543. The series is complete, but spinoffs are in the works.

I'm not talking about a "little" anchor and chain, I'm talking about a HUGE anchor.

I've already mentioned this on another thread, but i'd like some polearm weapons used if they never come out with a Polearm power set. Scythes and executioner axes have already been mentioned, and i totally agree with those. I'd also like naginatas, tetsubos, halberds, telephone poles, light posts, etc.

As for more appropriate bashing/slashing weapons, i'd like to see massive claymores, stop signs, chainsaws, steel girders, dead giraffes (you could grip them from the neck...what? stop staring at me!), etc.

Just some thoughts anyway.

I never said little anchor. I agree with a massive anchor on a massive chain. But whatever. I was making suggestions, not provoking arguments.

And your hot link is forbidden apparently.

I'm just clarifying, not arguing. For what it's worth I'd also like to see a ball & chain type set.

EDIT: Ah, it must have loaded for me simply because I already had the image loaded. This one should work, methinks.

Oh, yeah, a ship anchor (with or without a chain) would be really cool. TVtropes has a whole article on this in Anchors Away, complete with a screenshot of May from Guilty Gear.

LOL! Let me guess...this anchor helps keep the Earth in place, right? I love it. I'd also love a slightly more realistic anchor attached to a chain or maybe with a segment of chain dangling from it, but i like yours as well.

It's pretty specific, I know, but I'm hoping for something that at least somewhat resembles the King Saw.

Don't remind me of that... I want that to be an alternate super speed animation... badly.


Thank you, City of Heroes, for giving me a superhero social network combined with amazingly smooth game play. Petitions signed with realistic expectations.

I also would love customization in how the weapon is carried.

I'd love to be able to have it resting across my shoulders at all times when not in use.
