Swallow blade request for ninja?

I doubt this will ever get the attention of SE development but I was thinking it would be cool if ninja could use a swallow blade like zidane in 9.

Swallowing blades is very unhealthy, unless you are trained circus performer.
Children might consider trying it, if the see it in game. What were you thinking man?

Take a look at the ohojo Kai, they look a lot like Zidane’s daggers.

There are regions where this game is rated 12+.

But there are more people in the age of 16 to 21 who are as stupid to try it out irl.
Age is not all what counts it is maturity and nowadays it seems that people become mature later then last century or even decade.

with this we can even explain 40 years old person going hunting imaginary dragons with a bow and throwing molotov cocktails as fireballs at evil insurgents irl, all blaming the FF14 for it =)

Wouldn't double-sided weapons, whether in the likeness of Serge's or Zidane's, make more sense as another class's primary arms at this point?

I like Serge’s weapon, and I agree that it would be better as another class’s primary weapon, what class would that be I am not sure. I thought before that it could have been an evolved form of lance/spear for the DRG but I’m sure that’s not happening. I do hope that kind of weapon gets into ff14 though.

Animations will differentiate the class more than a weapon type will.

Warrior works just as well with two handed hammers as it would axes with the way it swings, but there's still likely to be a hammer swinging maniac at some point in the future.

Don't forget, all evil things in this world come from video games. Rampages are inspired by first-person shooters as a more known example. XD

On the other hand, relatively few of the rogue/Ninja animations can currently handle a swallow blade or other double-sided weapon. Which was my point here.

More importantly, though, while these animations could be revised easily enough, doing so and allowing for this distinct weapon type on rogues/ninja begs the question of what the Armory concept ought to be.

You are talking about people who deleted the best animation for ninja aka Dancing Edge and leaving the ugliest and not nimble ones. I wouldn't be to optimistic about that change lol

Don't stop Darwin's law. Let it play the course and we may have less people standing in AoE markers.

Alas, they are also the same people who figured it'd be easier to redo the art assets for almost every primal CNJ/THM weapon than to rework the code to allow for 1h weapons to be reglamoured to 2h and vice versa.
