Hello,
I have been thinking about some ideas for new weapons for the next expansion.
The first one is the Kyoketsu-shoge,
The Kyoketsu-shoge was a ninja weapon, it’s a double edged blade with another curved blade attached near the hilt, This is attached to a chain/rope which then ends in a large metal ring (as you can see in the picture below).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyoketsu-shoge
for more informtion,
This weapon has a long rang and has a very versatile use while still remaining a MELEE WEAPON.
This weapon will be used by 3 professions, Thiefs, Elementalist and Revenant.
First I must say the weapon will be part of new Elite Specialization.
If you want I have some ideas for utility skills for Elite Specialization but I will show them in other threads.
Starting with Thiefs,
The Theifs has really close similarities with ninjas so I thought it would be best to give
them some of the real technique (that I saw online) and some that I made up.
First of all when you wild this weapon as a thief you always spin the rop and ring part form side to side (as shown in the video
