Just have to comment on this though, I have never seen fireballs being carried around in a pouch/pocket or attached to belt/bandoleer but rather only manifested when needed.

This is a good point. There should be several different throwing animations for players to pick from for each attack, depending on where your character generates the particle effects and the throwing style. Choosing the animation, choosing the particle effects, customizing the colors, etc., and then assigning all that to a power.

Since they are splitting the full power aesthetics into character animation, projectile animation, particle effects, emanation point, and I think something more then they only "need" to create more throwing animations and assign them to the usable emanation points for them to be usable in their "full". It would surprise me if they didn't have at least the basic over-hand and side-ways throws when launching.

If we are going to go outside of explicit throwing animations then they have already shown one example, where they used a Capoeira move to launch a fireball from the foot.

we need a lever action rifle, we just do!!

Ever hear of a mid 19th century weapon called a LeMat? I may have mentioned it before...
[Url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LeMat_Revolver][img]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/02/Le_Mat_Revolver.jpg[/img][/url]

That cylinder that looks like a second barrel, in line with the center of the revolver cylinder? It's a second barrel ^_^ about a 20-gauge, usually used for buckshot. Some vampire hunters like to load a small stake instead of shot.

What? I feel it can be made for any melee set :p

Got sickles?

I considered them interchangeable with Kamas but It can't hurt to have them both

Hmm, reading up on this it seems that Kamas can be considered a subsection/subtype of Sickles. As far as I can tell Kamas are essentially restricted to a shortish straight edged blade on a longish handle while traditional sickles have a longer curved blade on a hand length handle. It also seems that Kamas were more widely used as an improvised weapon compared to other types of sickle-style tools.

Though in honest I think more knows what a Sickle is than a Kama.

Like the pic [url=https://cityoftitans.com/comment/162418#comment-162418]in this post[/url]. Having several smallish objects hover over the hand, potentially surrounded by an aura.

Think this has been mentioned with single larger objects like books and crystal orbs, or maybe that was only held.

Sorry for the double post (did copy paste it in the right thread now) as I wasn't aware that this one existed.

I love the different types of weapons... So here are some things I like:

alright, just saw Aquaman, suffice it to say I want a trident now

well don't I feel silly...

They did have some quality glowy weapons in Aquaman. Not a great movie but visually it was pretty slick.

Great? No. Very enjoyable? Yes. :)

I felt Aquaman was Black Panther + Thor: Ragnarok.

On the case of Black Manta, I really can't get behind any villain, who's motivation is "You let my murdering family member die." or even "You killed my murdering family member." What do they think happens to such people? :p

As for my analogy, I'm not saying they did it well, just that was the feel, though, BP and Thor weren't even out when they started Aquaman, were they?

Talk down to us? If that's about the whole "Our oceans!" speech, while it may have been, it also seemed typical Atlantean, even though, aren't they doing the same? :p

Nope. I still wouldn't have empathy for the kid. Murderous villain. It's not a nice occupation.

Now, if it was just a thief who was killed, I could see it, but when it comes to violent crimes, the family needs to let it go. :p

Spray-can

Could work for lots of powers. Mace, Silly-string, or Whoop-a$$.

Be Well!

Can we get dual sided lightsabers(Like Darth Mauls) and dual sided blades with bow staff animations? That would be pretty epic.

Also, if we can't get the option to have 4 arms in the character builder could we get the extra arms as props maybe?

Yes! This would be amazing. I could make an homage to one of my favorite Magic: the Gathering characters, Tamiyo

As a side note, all planeswalkers should die in a fire.

People had been talking about weapons with glowing effects. Just letting people know that's just the tip of the iceburg for what we can do.
Sadly I can't put glows in the UI. :'(

Oh... You just answered one of my questions I was searching the whole week on the unreal Engine forum ????

Yeah the Drow from D&D were always big into hand crossbows so you're likely to find a bunch of "fantasy" styled ones in artwork for them.

But of course we wouldn't want to forget cool "hi-tech" versions as well:

Then since this is a superhero-based game you could have a bunch of "pseudo-crossbow" type weapons that might just be cute impractical novelties in the real world but could be actual "serious" weapons in the game:

I try to pick cooler examples for obvious weapons since I'm sure the modelling team knows what a crossbow is :p

I wouldn't be so quick to assume that "everyone knows what a crossbow looks like". I've been looking at some of these fancy modern "compound/reverse" crossbows and some of them look more like abstract string art than bow weapons:

What IS that? A Swiss Militia Targe with a knife in it?

Darnit, I can't find my picture of the just-as-loopy pole-arm/buckler/lantern weapon I ran across a few years ago.

But in all honesty, I can put up with the combination cestus/buckler (perhaps with toned down spikes), and the candle lantern is all right, given the tech level. The four-bladed fish-scaler sticking out of the middle of the thing is where it crosses the line into "novelty equipment".

How about Dual Shields? Similar to Captain Americas in Avengers: Infinity Wars. Dual shields with a hand to hand power set or something similar would be cool with dual shields.

If we can go sword and board in CoT, I don't see why we wouldn't be able to go board and board.

But I suppose it all depends on how the game handles props. If you choose each prop based on hand or if props are more like a set.

If it's based on a set I hope things like sword and staff, sword and book, etc are included for magic warrior concepts.

I wanna dual weild flamethrowers

okay

I wanna suitcase, do we have suitcase up there?
