    Can we get a Zantetsuken for DRK's from Odin?

    Like I get that it was long before HW but it would be reeeeeeally cool to have Zantetsuken as a greatsword.

    Pretty please?

    Not sure how the programming works for it. Right now it's a Paladin weapon, would they have to take it away from PLD to be able to add it to DRK?

    Just make it larger with a longer handle and a different name like "shin-zantetsuken". Theyve done that with alot of other DRK swords, simply making larger versions of PLD swords and a few NIN daggers.

    ah yeah, adding another item may work well for it. XD Though making it bigger may be a bit much. We'll be approaching Sephiroth levels of stupid with that.

    Nearly every primal, crafted and raid weapon DRK has had this already... have you seen how dumb some of them look? I think we're past stupid already.

    Scale it properly and it'll look fine (I guess), longer hilt with a slightly longer yet wider blade for example.

    God dont' remind me how bad most these DRK weapons look. I wound up glamoring Balmung over mine because it's one of the few I think look good with a DRK.

    shouldn't need to make it larger. just give it a longer handle and it's good with it's current blade length.

    on an unrelated note, drgs need a gungnir

    semantics, one-handed swords like the ones in final fantasy are often referred to as "hand and a half swords"

    they are light enough to be used one handed with a shield, or held in both hands.

    if we wanted to get technical, we could even give warriors swords that have been reversed so that the blade is being used as a grip.

    I would be on board with this. Honestly, I was nerding out really hard about all the jobs getting Odin-themed/Zantetsuken-like weapons when they added the Odin Primal battle...I'm still holding out for an Odin EX that might have weapon drops. I want Zantetsuken daggers. ;;

    If it were available as a reward for 5 cloaks from the Odin FATE it would become a bit more popular again.

    I still have mantles and nothing to do with them since I already bought everything. I'd love a DRK version of the sword.
