Man, I’d love it if we got legend-themed weaponry, like Glint’s shield.

I mean, Ventari could be an awesome staff that grows and lives on its own, with vines crawling along it and flowers sprouting, growing, and then withering away.

Jalis would obviously be a heavy hammer of stone and steel, inscribed with dwarven runes and finely chiseled scenes from Jalis’ many battles. The handle could be something like swirling stone carvings, or tightly spun iron bands.

Mallyx would get the axe/mace combo, where both weapons are made from dark steel and pallid wood, alongside twisting and terrifying purple energy. Spikes could sprout and retract now and then, as could ripples of dark purple fire.

And Shiro? All we need is a slick, clean, wonderful katana one-hander <3

The Gnarled Walking Staff from HoM is a perfect fit for Ventari. And the Dragon’s Deep and Shadow skins look perfect for Mallyx.

That’s what I’m using at the moment. Though I’d love for you guys to release proper katana skins.

Please lets not make legendary skins gemshoppable…

“Might makes Right” – the ability to commit an act is sufficient justification to do it.

Katanas are 2-handed weapons, though.

Also, Shiro’s blades are not katanas.

Whatever they are, I do want them as a skin, though. Gemstore, maybe?

I believe the closest thing to Shiro’s swords would be a saber. Or Thorin’s sword Orcist:

The ceremonial saber sort of works, but the blade has a curve to it where shiro’s did not (except for the blade side)

ALso, Katana’s are closer to kitten swords (or hand and a half swords). Odachi’s (like Belinda’s Greatsword) are the two-handed versions.

Kitten swords! xD

Pretty sure I know what you actually typed but it still made me giggle.

You may like the fact that 1h short katana (has a specific name that I don't remember) skin has been datamined already

wakizashi?

Also saying katana is 2h is false. Katana is both 1h and 2h. Point in case Miyamoto Musashi who used katana + wakizashi among other weapons (like bokken, but he was most famous for two-swords style)

yeah, but the mined one is a shorter version of Belinda's GS.

They’re a weird hybrid – the sheath, pommel and guard are correct for a Nihonto, but the shape of the blade (tip especially) is chinese style.

Also, Belinda’s Katana is by definition not a Katana, since that is defined as a Nihonto worn in the waist sash with the edge up.

Since its not worn in the waist sash, its not a Katana – japanese swords are oddly specific like that.

If anything its an Odachi, although these were worn with the edge down, and Belinda’s has the edge up.
