That's cool how they greatly expanded how to use the bow . It almost looks like some stuff you see in anime.
My favorite weapon (so far) for that is nothing. Not so much like martial arts or anything, but the idea that the character has a large amount of power in their body that can be released in various ways. Pretty much like some presentations of magic, but not completely overlapping. Does that make sense? The style and symbolism would be, "invisible power is still power."
I understand what you are saying, where its not a battle orientated story but, still have powers. In those cases symbolism is important tool to use so their are using their powers to influence the narrative.
Yes! That sort of element would actually cheapen most potential uses of battle. I guess I've never gravitated toward outright violence in anything I've written or drawn, though I don't mind the reality of real violence. I tend to think that battle is only for use when you've given up on more healthy ways to deal with conflict. Someone marching on you with awesome weapons might change your mind, though.
I used to look forward to the fighting parts of my stories and still do. However, these days they are more or less a means to an end. Like my story Seishin Patona focuses on how to change the world's view of racism, so they are going to have to butt heads with a few people. I look forward more towards the drama like the characters reacting to certain events that's what really catches my attention more these days.
I'm a big fan of the very obscure and creative weapons, such as Ryuko's giant broken scissor from Kill La Kill. I'd share my idea of what my favourite "strange" weapon would be but if I ever do think of something really cool I'd end up keeping it a secret!
You might as well surprise your reader when they pull the mystery weapon out.
I would say...a staff. Or any other magical item. I'm more the typical backline person then the frontline sword slashing warrior.Mostly because melee mode never worked for me in games xD. So I rather stay on safe mode and give my characters a balanced weapon and both offense and defense.
Being strategic is actually the best method of survival. Using magic from afar would definitely help you survive. Like the old saying, "it brains over brawn".
Yup, shoot afar then run! Safe!
I don't create comics, I write Steampunk fiction. That's why I have swords there not too often. Mostly my characters have firearms. The last of my characters, inspector Cane, use a pistol, but as far as plot goes, he uses a sniper rifle with fancy scope. Why? Because I like guns with scopes, LOL. My grandpa was a hunter and he took me for hunting from time to time. By the way, finding a model for inspector Cane rifle with scope was a hell of a problem. But I nailed it. One of my friends showed me review of best rifle scopes and I have found a proper model for my character. By the way, they sell cool stuff as I saw.
The best weapon of all, the power of friendship.
I always thought that Lord Shen's sword was cool.
I'm not gonna do it since the last time i did i got snapped at, but this one could be closed since it's four years old
Me like Soul Calibur's control system though. Four angles of attack plus thrust. That basically the same as this ultra-minimal arnis style, Cinco Teros, or "Five Strikes." Me been brushing up old arnis skills because of recent crisis.
Oh. Well, if good enough amount of people would answer, maybe it's revivable?
I should actually say magic lol, 95% of my characters are elemental mages. Other than that it's various types of pole weapons: spear, guandao, glaive...
Guillotine Gun. Evolved from the Berger guillotine, can be used either with a stock or without one. It can be carried by hand like a firearm, but shoots an angular blade that can cut through even the thickest of ... souls. It saw great usage during the French and Japanese wars.
In high school they call me the Burger Guillotine
Yea slicing hamburgers is a great hobby. There is also cutting the cheese!
But its a reference to a guy named Leon Berger who invented refinements to the model.
Scythe. It's mid-range. Originally for farming now used as a weapon I like it because in media it's primarily used to signify Death,or the Grim Reaper.And without death,there'd be no life so I like it as it signifies equality. Life and death,mid-range,could be thrown or used like a sword,and even when it's thrown,there are million of way to throw it. One more deadly and/or beautiful than the last!
