Title: Art for fist weapons?
Post by: Ryoku on March 28, 2007, 03:55:23 PM
Is this something we'll ever see? I don't particularly think it'd be that hard to add graphics for some of the fist weapons we Monks get. I mean come on, staring at our fists is cool for what, the first 15 levels before it gets old? Monk equipment is boring and sparse enough as it is, and conceptually I don't want to wield 2handers my entire Monk-life. At some point, it'd be nice to get some artwork for these fist weapons. If Rogues can have their daggers, why can't we have our claws?

Funny enough, I logged in today and noticed I had a weird thing on the side of my belt.  Turns out it was a knuckle graphic for my Claws of Bloodletting.  It doesn't look very cool or anything, but hey, at least we have something.

Being the new guy just wanted to put my 2cp in on this one.  I personaly would love to see some kind of graphic on my hands.  I don't see Claws. Ulaks, Handwraps being something you would "holster" like a regular weapon.  It would be something you strap on and would stay on all the time or until you changed out weapons.  Running around with a some wicked looking claws out would just be awsome.  I am not talking some Wolverine style because that would be cheesey just something to show what we have on .

IMO, they could easily add some Qatar like graphics to Ulaks, studded or spiked gloves to the Knuckle category (or just fist irons).  Anyone know why we can't use nunchuks, kamas (scythe on a short handle), sais (forks) or jos (short, one-handed sticks), by the way?

Yeah, would be nice.  My bard dual wielded sais, they looked like sais anyway. Kojani style Brute's Daggers look exactly like sais.

Would also like to see Monk armor like they did in EQ.

Well just so you all know I made a WTF post over on silky a while ago and got a dev responce sayin that all h2h weapons will have art at next patch when weilded and most heroic and leg weapons would have particals. It was said that they would not be visable while holsterd yet cuz hes waiting on some thing from the art department.

Well hey its a move in the right direction :)

Yeah, I remember VG beta, where I thought I couldn't wear anything higher than light armour :)
It's still weird to see my Monk in chain armour.
