    If something is cool, it is cool, anything well executed in entertaining to me. While rainu wow pic looks kind of over the top, the aion scythe looks pretty well designed. soooo, yeah. Long as they have options, its all good. I honestly would love some burning fists on a monk type charachter.

    The Aion weapon isnt that bad of a glow, but the way WoW does it is the way many other MMORPGs do it, and glowing weapons really just aren't as great as the bare metal weapons we currently have. I like the weapons in FFXIV the way they are just come up with some more designs. I can easily see a water-elemental Sword being introduced similar to Tidus's Brotherhood. Transparent, unique... It can easily be done without havng to resort to using the flametongue sword model and making it glow a blue color.

    Glowing weapons will allow for a company to be dull and non-creative with their games. I think we are trying to direct FFXIV in the opposite direction, aren't we?
