For Bard I wish to get more weapons that look like instruments. Something like Barimbau and Gandiva (HW relic) where the whole weapon looks like an instrument. With such weapons I can roleplay into being more of a bard that somehow empowers the magic arrows trough music (notes) played from the weapon :P

THIS, that's exactly what I wanted to suggest!

Since most of the primals got themed weapons, the coolest one still only has one, Odin. We need to have Odin themed weapons for all roles. It’ll give the Odin fate a reason to be done again for a long while.

Some got added with the Baldesion Arsenal. DRK and SAM if I remember correctly.

I'm ready for my Ifrit-themed gunblade and chakras, please <3

A lot of Prestarting level gear needs to have those added. Maybe as craftable il1 gear?

+1 to the silly items as weapons.


I forget what game did this(guild wars?) but I really like the food based weapons (I think you could duel wield a set of leeks as daggers for example). There was also a lot of just common items wielded as weapons, like a bottle, Stein or rolling pin.

Also, there was an art contest where an armor submission was a lalafel wearing homemade junk armor..like cooking pot helmet, cutting board shield. Very 6 year old homemade Halloween costume.

Give me more of that!

I'd love if more of our guns looked like actual functional guns and not hunks of fantasy loops, handles, wings, and barrels that are twisted into gun-shaped Dr. Seuss creations. There's plenty of inspiration to draw from and don't get me wrong I love the more inspired designs but the lack of down-to-earth ones is jarring. Does realistic count as a theme?
