Finally... The Completed Nyzul Weapons. I can't wait to see what they do.

Didn't seem to take long for the thread to derail a bit >.>

I hope the PLD disco ball WS is in there along with the RDM Rose one too. Wonder if it's even going to be from these weapons.

Re: The Myriad Arms of Balrahn (02/05/2008)
Seeing as the base weapons themselves are supposed to drop from bosses on the hundreth floor of Nyzul, I think these may be just a bit difficult...and expensive...to get.

Death Penalty!

Makes sense. My last two guns were Peacemaker and Coffinmaker. Vincent's equally morbid-sounding ultimate weapon is appropriate.

Re: The Myriad Arms of Balrahn (02/05/2008)
Is it just me, or do pretty much all of these look really freaking stupid?

I mean, the G.axe and scythe look like polearms; the katana looks like the Galka is trying to use a Tarutaru's scythe; the (THF) dagger looks like a sword (the Xiphos variety, specifically); the axe looks like a bladed hammer; the 'belly bow' shows no evidence of being held any different than a regular xbow...


On the bright side, the gun makes RE4's handcannon seem like a joke. Mainly because it actually is a portable fucking cannon.

(for comparison: )

Re: The Myriad Arms of Balrahn (02/05/2008)
I'm so excited for the Nyzul relics, I have a static and we've gotten to floor 100 already, so now it's just a matter of getting drops.

Hell, I'll never get a Dynamis relic, so I'm pretty stoked that I could maybe be pimpin' with a Nyzul relic fairly soon after release!

I'm rather excited as soon, from what I understand these aren't supposed to be as powerful as Dynamis relics, but if they make the mage ones have actual useful stats, and it doesn't cost 2m a week just to obtain on in less than 9 months I'll be very pleased.

The downside is that I know my Nyzul static will want to spam 100 for a while now and I still need my Goliard Cuffs. :/

In the case of the RDM sword and DNC dagger that's intentional, it's used to catch opponent's weapons and wrangle them away. Although I do worry for my tights.

I get that, but they still seem very impractical.

Re: The Myriad Arms of Balrahn (02/05/2008)
Impractical yes, but it doesn't change how pretty it will look when you utterly destroy something with them lol. Plus it's a game. Enjoy the pretty, unrealisticness that you can't get in real life. ^^

Re: The Myriad Arms of Balrahn (02/05/2008)
It amuses me that Death Penalty looks like a mini-cannon.

If there's a relic I'm going to work toward, its gonna be this one. I'm interested to know what the SCH one does though.
