Guild Wars 2

I know of many weapons. I’ve never even heard of a focus before this game. ha ha i wish we could go back to the classics! I have spoken to a lot of the people in the game, and i think that some valuable additions would be:

-Gauntlets: fisticuffs, etc. for hand combat, it would be an interesting new form of game-play, and i think there would be value in the weapons. many people would probably agree that people like Warriors and Thieves would like this. i know i would for my warrior.

-2H Axes: these seem to be a common request or suggestion that i hear of. i believe they would be a pretty fun addition to the game because so far the only “heavy” weapons we have are Greatsword and Warhammer. 2H Axe would be quite fun to experience.

-Lances & Spears (ground): would definitely be fun. diverse game-play style for sure. i believe the underwater skills could reflect the same on ground. quick jabs and block counters. stuff like that, it would be cool for Mesmers and guardians. maybe a Mesmers could use it for range. like throws and disappears after shooting through the enemy. Also, people seem to want halberds, i think maybe a skin would be suitable if it isn’t a possible request.

-Claws: Lots of people seem to want claws for thieves, it sounds fun, and cool. I mean come on, their claws… that’s freaking awesome.

that’s all i’ve got for weapons. but i would like to see more skins in the game. like katana skins, more scimitar skins. stuff like that. I love the graphics department of A-net because you guys always come through with some really cool skins and such.

Thank you Arena net for an amazing game and all the effort, thought, hard work put into the game. i know there is a ton of work put into every part of this game. and i know taking new weapons and having to balance the power and such with other weapons would be crazy difficult. but you have no idea how much every person in the game would appreciate some new stuff to mix up an already amazing game even more.

, thanks very much! -Aero

I’d like to hear more suggestions on this feed too. don’t go nuts or anything or they won’t listen. try not to post things that have been said. i’d like the person from A-net to be interested in reading this, not feel like it’s a chore to run through all these pointless notes like i see in a lot of threads.
ty for reading guys

All focus is, well it’s a catalyst. I haven’t played all classes but I believe focus is for magic classes. And a catalyst let’s magic users channel their magic.

i know haha, i was just saying i’ve never heard of one before this game.

I was just thinking about this the other day- and have some ideas of my own.

The Ribbon-Sword: I’m not exactly sure what the actual name is, but it’s just that- a sword that’s as flexible as a ribbon. It is most often used in spinning, and I could see how a Mesmer, Warrior, or even an Elementalist could incorporate this weapon. (Found out it was called an ‘urumi’, but I don’t think I’ll retype that)

Hookblades: They’re just that. Swords that are hooks.

Nunchucks: Seriously. Who WOULDN’T want nunchucks?

Chakram: Okay, they could either be used as ranged or melee- an ideal weapon! I could see a Thief, Mesmer, or a Hunter using these.

Crossbows: Usable by a Warrior, Hunter, Guardian, or even Thief, a crossbow would be a nice heavy ranged weapon. I realize we have Rifles, but there’s also the sword/greatsword, and the staff/scepter. The ‘we have rifles and bows for that!’ argument is hereby invalid, bwahaha!

While I realize most of these weapons are martial arts-type melee weapons, which limits them to the medium armor and Mesmer, I still hope to see new weapons in game.

Because I’m bored and have time to burn, here are some other weapon’s I’ve found that seem neat, and might be incorporated into the game.

Cestus: A boxing glove- just with added spikes or blades. However, this could be easily confused with the claws. Which is why they might be bade into something holographic looking- more ME3 blade-ish than cestus-ish.

Slingshots: A great on-the-go light weapon that most classes could use.

Talisman: A magic version of a shield! something that when worn, pops out like a hologram, kinda like the Aegis effect.

Boomerangs: Another ranged light/mid damage weapon, these seem ideal for Hunters, Elementalist, and possibly the (poor, unloved) Engineers!

Shuriken: There’s not really much to put here.

Okay, I think I’m done for real this time. Thanks!
