That would definitely put fear into the eyes of my enemies.

The nova knives already OHK every suit, what more would a better version do anyways?

Just wanted to take this opportunity to let Nova Knife fans know we have done some refactoring and optimization in 1.5 for the knives that should improve your hit detection a lot.

Nova greatswords for heavies.

Come ooooon.

You know you wanna.

What? i guess ill be gettin on my minny assassin soon.......hehe

Have you ever been Nova knifed? I mean completely assassinated by a Nova Knife



I would like to suggest we increase the damage of Nova knifes. They should be 1 shot kill for any suit under 500 total armor/shields. Decrease the range to like 2m

Then add Nova Swords, with a 8m range with the damage of the current Nova knifes. This would be a fun weapon - Great for my Commando! or maybe a smart dedicated scout assassin. If it was a light weapon some people might carry it and a nova knife.


CCP you said there would be assassins and the option to cloak (or be unseen - logi). DUST still does not support the ability to assassinate players and get away as a possible playing style. The Nova knifes are more of a back up then a useable front weapon. People are sniping for assassination, SO lets make some active 15sec cloak or something so I can assassinate a guy and run away to assassinate another!

if you think nova knives are useless you should have seen Spec Ops Cipher when he use to use them
and swords should do more damage tan knives (coz they are freaking swords)

Well a knife would be able to hit between the armor in our dropsuits so closer range they should be lethal. I am ripping the sword idea from Halo but it was a fun playing style? Modified by CCP it could rock! as a assassination option, and as a close range weapon for commandos.

Read my post.

Swords could do more damage per slash, but strike slower and only once or twice instead of the repeated slashes you get with Knives.

I don't know why everyone is high fiving each other and popping champagne bottles over this already. Have you all forgotten how many times CCP has said "should" in the past?

Will there be sprint-charge?
It will be cool if when both enemies clash knives, there is a buffer zone like a "clink" sound and either no one takes damage or both take slight damage.
How can knive fights be better?

Pro 4 an proto suit with charge is 1,120,-á
560 uncharged 280 a blade

Pro 5 is 287 per blade 575 both blades and 1150 charged-á

Put a smg an a complex dam mod for the knives an you can strike a charged hit with pro five at-á1,265

Pro 4 an complex mod is-á1,232
So unless you have already went pro 5 an we don't need pro five for the new skills I'd just leave it at 4

Unless ur gallente then you need pro 5 an a dam mod to even come close to these numbers

Is there someone spec'ed into this? really?

I am.

To be honest if you sneak up from behind you should grab the guy and stab him to death like in battlefield 3.
