Well, i was thinking, i dont know if this is a good idea or not but i think the GW company should make a new item. An Elemental Sword, but req Energy Storage instead of Swordsmanship. They could still keep the other Elemental Sword but they should make another one or maybe something a little different (not a staff) for Elementalists but required Energy Storage.

An Idea?

Swords are linked to Swordmanship.

I won't mind adding those Bandit hammers that fake staves linked to elemental attributes as a new type of item called 'Quarterstaff', but not swords.

Swords are linked to Swordmanship.

i agree with Mithran in the fact that swords are linked to swordsmanship, but what might be cool would be to add an item that would create a weapon completely made out of an element. like a sword or staff made out of lightning or something. a problem with this though might be that it would come out too much like the fds or ids. but instead of having a regular hilt with a blade of fire the whole weapon would be made out of fire. seeing as they are elementalist they would be immune to the fire or lighting from hurting them while holding it. think of it as holding a lighting bolt in your hand. alright now i'm sure there are people here that are probably going to flame me for this, but this is my two cents and i am sorry if you don't like the idea.

I like Daemon's idea. That would be awesome like a weapon made out of just the element. So like an Earth one made out of rock. That would be awesome.

GREAT idea Daemon!

Great Idea, but I would add a laser sword for the warriors. Ah, also a machine gun for rangers would be a very good idea.

Sscare Y · Jul 13, 2008, 08:47 PM // 20:47

A machine gun....? This is an RPG Game from like the past. Not present time gunning. Lol if your looking for gun games go play COD4. Good gun game. And lets stick to bows and crossbows there.

Quoted for good humor.

On the topic, we have an Elemental Sword. Technically. It just requires swordsmanship because you know...it's a sword. Why you would want to get your squishy elementalist closer to the enemies, I don't know. Your call, but perhaps if it was a skin that acted similiar to a wand (i.e., uses wand upgrades, for some reason, shoots fireballs) then sure. But for you to go out and swing proudly to get yourself killed...no point.

I'm more neutral than any signed.

I'm thinking this is a troll topic, who's with me?

Bowstring Badass · Jul 13, 2008, 09:08 PM // 21:08

I am besides sword = warrior weapon...

miskav · Jul 13, 2008, 09:16 PM // 21:16

Bowstring, tell that to almost all monks/necro's/mesmers who use caster weapons, lol.

GWEXTREEMFAN · Jul 13, 2008, 09:21 PM // 21:21

the idea is ok

but wtf

a sword wich requires energy storage

wtf is the point

a ele in close melee combat using a weapon wich gives +5 energy and god knows what as i doubt you would use 15^50

anyway

no point????

useless

My Warrior would like a Spear tied to Axe Mastery so I can gain adrenaline from range and do big damage. That will never happen, I hope, because it makes no sense. Neither does an Energy Storage Sword/Axe/Hammer/Dagger/Bow/Spear.

Sscare Y · Jul 13, 2008, 10:04 PM // 22:04

Lets just make something clear i didnt mean like "a sword" i meant something LIKE an elemental sword. So what like Daemon said, a staff or wand thats made up of an element.
