Buster Sword for Dark Knights

[Duskane]

personally would prefer the crisis core one since its the regular buster sword but more detail


i wish they would remove the generic LB 1 and 2
Completely re-haul the melee dps one
change bards and Mch so they shoot it out of the bow/gun not the cross bow
and Casters just cast it from there own book,staff and rapier

Seconding this idea of an LB1&2 rework, though I'd extend it to all classes, not just the DPS.
Also replace the PLD LB3, that thing is ugg.

Given that we got Cloud's motorcycle and a mini cloud in the first two fanfests, it could possibly be a fanfest 3 item. Though they'll probably go with an item all characters can use like another minion rather than a job exclusive weapon.

i could totally see it coming with a FF VII crossover though if they ever get around to finishing the FF VII remake.

Part of the reason we haven't seen it may also just be that the Gunbreaker job is more directly inspired by Squall and his gunblade than DRK is from Cloud. DRKs use massive swords, sure, and they have some animations from cloud as a reference, but really the job isn't inspired by Cloud specifically or FF VII in general, it just has some fanservice animations. Where as with Gunbreaker, we're getting Squall's default weapon as a CE bonus because the job was more directly inspired by FF VIII style gunblades specifically.

LB1 and LB2 rework for all jobs please. Same effect just job-specific animations. Let SAM keep Braver/Bladedance.

The formula could be:
Melee LB1: Single or Two-hit attack
Melee LB2: Multihit attack.

For DRG, LB1 could be High Jump, and LB2 could be Penta Thrust
For MNK, LB1 could be Dolphin Blow (basically a rising upppercut) and LB2 would be Raging Fists (staple multi punch MNK attack).
