Poor Designed Weapon's.

[Dargoth_Draconia]

I always wondered why these supernatural creatures would have weapons and armor desiged for humans in the first place.
Ifrit would be like "Yes I have this incredibly powerful bow specifically designed for you mortals but NO YOU CAN'T HAVE IT YOU FOOLS. Me likez shiny stuff."
It's like with dragons and treasures. If I were a dragon I wouldn't hoard money in a cave and live in it. I'd have humans build me a giant aery with chocolate fountains. Honestly.

Anyway I think the weapons are fine, some of them could use a bit of downscaling though (like the bow).

The bow is perfect!

The Bow is Bulky!

Amazing, I agree completely!

A bow is a flexible arc that shoots through elastic or spring energy. Essentially, the bow is a form of spring powered by a string or cord. As this string is drawn, energy is stored in the flexible limbs of the bow equally; the energy is transferred to the arrow when the string is released, projecting it much farther than a weapon could be thrown.

Hooke's Law states that the extension of a spring is in direct proportion with the load applied to it. But beyond that there are practical limitations depending depending on the specific case. In the case of a bow depending on the material it may snap if its pulled back too far. Also, you cannot pull the arrow back farther than its head or you will not be able to control it's horizontal direction, most people might agree that if our char. pulled their arrows back 6 inches behind the bow-as subtle as it may be-it would look completely silly.

This bow in particular contains incredibly dense and organic mass assuming it comes from ifrit, therefore, it's elasticity should be reasonably high but so is the force required to bend it. Therefore, the bow would shoot incredibly strong if there were someone strong enough to actual arch it to its optimal position (unlikely even if you assume your char is as strong as an elephant).

The point is moot however as the difference in density from top to bottom means that the bow will always shoot upward higher than your aim.

It's not so much that it's ugly as much as that it's just a crumby bow. Fancy though i guess like shoes.

They look fine from what they come from, Ifrit. They're just Ifrit themed weapons and I don't understand why some of the playerbase is bitching and making a big deal out of it.

The spelling and punctuation mistakes in the title make me kind of annoyed. Am I bad person?

Also I think the weapons are mostly fine, these are after all, weapons from Ifrit. I dislike the fists some and feel the bow is clunky but I'm not going to lose sleep over it. The other weapons I think look pretty good though.

no one here is losing sleep over these weapons lol

the complaints are merely gut reactions. like you said i have no problem with any of them in terms of ugliness and silliness the thm takes the cake since it's obviously ifrit's dildo, but there are ugly items in the game already.

In terms of actual practicallity however the pgl weapons are the worst of all pgl weapons you physically can't hold those things by the handle because when you punch they will turn either up or down best you could do is grab one of the sides and slap your adversary with it. I know theres other pgl weapons like that but this one is far and beyond and i'm not talking about other pgl weapons.

The bow is an abhoration. Do we even know how bows work? energy from the bent bow is transferred to the string and then to the arrow. The less you can bend the bow the weaker it is. The physicist in me cries.

The weapons look BA! They could scale them down a bit but nothing worth loosing sleep over lol
