Status: Legendary Hammer
Name: Balthazar’s Pendulum
Description: “Balthazar bless my strength, teach my hands to war, and my fingers to fight,”
Design: – I wanted to make a new approach on 2 handed weapons such as the hammer, so far I’m still installing Photoshop, so it’ll take time, for now well have to deal with the paint demonstration. I wanted to take on the Hammer first being the first thing coming to mind by making it 2 handed with the appearance of a one handed weapon. First though coming to mind was Chains…and a hammer with chains…Meteor hammer came to mind then of course the inspiration of Balthazar’s Pendulum . Pendulum referring to upright position and balance, Inertia and force…which ALSO made me turn to the hammer even more. Add a stainless steal appearance with Black Rubber Bands around in the areas and some shading….cake. (Reflective appearance much like the armor of juggernauts appearance on the entire (except with the Rubber Bands) hammer and chain.)
Concept: The basic idea of this weapon was to utilize the animation of slowly swinging the pendulum while holding in the other hand the hammer. Attacks deal the same damage with same speed as a normal legendary hammer, when outward swings take place, the momentum may aid the hammer much like an extended weighted hammer knob on the end of the hammer.
Possibility to add: instead of the player holding the chain, there could be a handle on the top of the Pendulum for the player to hold. When swinging down, player COULD use the pendulum to hammer…the err.. hammer, using the pendulum as the hammer and further hammering the opponent with the added weight. (THIS IS SOMETHING TO THINK ON)
-Have the chain inside the pendulum so the hammer and pendulum are connected until a WIDE swing is used.
Effects: Lovely effects time…
-Fiery aura surrounds the player when unsheathed(who unsheathes a hammer?)
-Taking steps puts cracks under the players feet and every downward slam on an enemy allows a crater to appear, much like a decal.
-Outline of the raised design on the pendulum glow red with a pulsating effect.
-Holding the weapon you always slowly spin your pendulum on the chain.
