Glowing weapons

What's a battle fork? A trident?

Glowing weapons sounds lame when you say "glowing weapons" because it makes us think about WoW and its 15 year olds with glowing weapon and gawdy ass gear. I would rather them reserve weapons with light effects for the lantern shields and maybe enspells in the future. Having a glowing aura around my weapon at all times for no reason isn't going to make this game more interesting, it just attacts the "OOOO SHINIES" people.

Nah, they're bidents. That is, a two pronged spear. Think of a trident sans the middle prong.

Seriously... Lost odyssey got it right in terms of the level of the aura or weapon effect....

Video's to show what I mean:

Look at the water on Seth's sword 40 seconds in

At 1:55 check out the flame effect on both Kaim and Seth's weapons

Go to the 1:00 mark on this one for another good example of the fire effect

Maybe like that vapor glow around the extremity of the weapon like the GMs from XI had around their greatsword, that shit look awsome.

Make an enchantment class, let them add things like resistances and skills, some of them might make your spells bigger, mails shinier, boots redder etc. and lowclass gear will become a tiny bit better

How about "radiant tools of malice"?

Glowing weapons... not needed. The weapons are fine as they are. FFX was the first game that I played that actually used glowing weapons, and I thought it was more annoying than anything else. If given the perfect amount, it can be kinda cool, but if it's not absolutely perfect it's just going to take up more rendering time. I'm fine with the way things are.
