Combined with this thread, and the way some people are going completely Nova Knife, this would make for a very potent "ninja" build. It would occupy a light weapon slot, and have a slightly longer charge-up time than a Nova Knife, but with greatly increased damage (Probably enough to one-shot a well-fit assault of the same tier, which might not be OP since it would be exclusively melee). It would have the same efficiency values as a Nova Knife. It would benefit the Scouts a lot because of their low scan profile (thus the ability to get into CQC). Any feedback? |

I see no issue. 450 damage standard, 550 advanced, 650 proto. I cut the numbers low since proficiency/weaponry skills can increase the damage passively and damage mods can raise them more.
However, I wouldn't go with a charge time on it though. I would personally make it mid damage (100~150 standard, 200~250 avd, 300~350 proto) but be able to swing it VERY fast (about 3 swings per second). Also, I would have the base skill increase movement speed when equipped by 3% per level.
I honestly don't think we NEED one. But if the Devs ever get some spare time, it would be a fun little toy. |

A Nova Pen would provide automatic balancing. Get the Proto Pen and Die. |

We're immortal mercenaries. simply pissing away AR rounds at the enemy gets boring. Sorry you like being bored. Other people like these things called having fun and using inventive tactics, you should try it, you just might like it. |

I was thinking it would look like a katana by default.
Now, if only we could dual wield them without being OP ... |

No this isn't call of duty where a throwing knife to the foot kills you in one hit. |

Nope, Nova Sword would be a light weapon; so it would have to be a primary. Nova Knives would still be a secondary.

There could be a side objective to kill all other sword users to be The One. And you can't die unless someone else brings out a sword to make you not The One any more. |

So, do you think it should be a charge-up, massive damage weapon or a moderate damage, rapid swinging weapon? BTW, are nova knives affected by Hand to Hand Combat and Myfobril Stimulants? Because I think they should be.
Anyway, I think I have an idea for the perfect "Ninja" fit:
Suit: Scout Type-1
Hi-Slot: Shield Extender
Lo-Slot: Myfobril Stim, Profile Dampener
Light Weapon: Nova Katana
Sidearm: Martial Art (elaborated on in the thread being linked to in the OP)
Equipment: Cloaking Device (I think the largest thread on the cloak made it take up an equipment slot) |
