Weapon types you'd like to see in game

[Talia_Hailwind]

Tessen (Bladed Fan) please. New Dancer Job, lorded over by P'molminn!

Would this count as a fan?

[TouchandFeel]

- katana (samurai)
- rapier/dueling sword+parrying dagger (red mage)
- dual fans (dancer) (great idea BTW)
- whip (beast master)
- sword/bladed staff (mystic knight) (think Zidane's or Darth Maul's weapons)
- two-handed maces and hammers (can't really think off a fitting ff class ATM)

S'what I said =) "these look more like clubs" compared to the sword-ish form of the macuahuitl. Doesn't stop me from comparing the two with swords/two-handed swords in a similar manner, though.

Not sure how you can compare the two though since one is meant for cutting and the blunt trauma. Only comparison I can really draw from the 2 is that they're both weapons, lol. But hey, compare away, lol.

I know, it doesn't really make sense ^^ But the first impression of the pics in the OP just made me think of the profile of the macuahuitl, and... I guess it's just one of those "once seen, can't be unseen" things XD Plus the macuahuitl generally referred to among the people I know as 'spanking paddle', due to mayan/incan (whichever it is, I forget) words being tricky, doesn't really help either ^^;
(Though... on that side, it doesn't quite make sense where -- lore-wise -- how and why the macuahuitls entered the gladiator/paladin tradition. Which Eorzean culture do they come from? Howcome they're included as GLD/PLD weapons? Why would someone decide to throw away their good steel sword for a wooden board with stone edges? If you ask me, I think some paladin at some point took the 'tank and spank' notion way too literally...)

[Sunako]

Some kind of string type weapon would be cool like this.

[Talia_Hailwind]

Mr Toots anyone?

[Terrini]

Would this count as a fan?

No, that is a feather duster (I kid) but the fan fighting style would not be conducive to fans with long handles.

[Aeliott]

Tonfa, bo staff and straight-sword (jian) would be pretty cool. FF loves its aesthetics after all
Don't ask me what (traditional) FF jobs they'd go with, ha. The latter 2 may be the only things that will ever sway me from MNK though.

[Dijana]

Fans, like others have said. Would love it for dancer if it didn't someday come off Rogue.

Bladed Scarves...or just a normal scarf/sash I suppose.

Meteor Hammers and Needle Darts/Whip Darts (whatever you want to call them) were always pretty cool to me too.

[Skeith-Adeline]

-Whips
-Paint (FF6~)
