biostem Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 So Psionic Melee seems to be a mashup of 2 different ideas - hard light constructs like Green Lantern might create, and psi blades like Psylocke creates. Why not allow someone to stick to all one theme or another? The psi blade attacks could use an open-hand chopping animation, while the non-blade attacks could use a quick or upward thrust of the psi blade. Your thoughts? Thanks for reading! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor Cure Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I agree! It would be nice to have one or the other. With fire melee, I did NOT take fire sword, simply cause it looked..silly. Having a small sword for one attack, with a huge one for another. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooltastic Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 It's not the only culprit of mashing 2 ideas together. I still can't get over Wolves and Lions.... I mean really? Whoever made some of these sets had no concern for concept builders. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenex Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I really like psi blade animation, but can't fit the smashing fist into any concept ideas along with it, so being able to chose one of the other would be fantastic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haijinx Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Sounds good if you can find animations 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itikar Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 It would be very nice indeed. I scrapped a concept of psi fighter because of this exact issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandX Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 And a different confront animation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninja surprise Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I'd love this for Psi and all the Elemental attacks too. Stone Melee never pulls a random dirt sword out of nowhere, it's all stone fists and stomps. I'd love it if on the Ice and Fire melee it could be all fists or all swords/clubs/etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crysta Clear Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I built my psi-melee stalker with only four attacks because I skipped the silly-looking tele-punches. It works, but I had to go all in for recharge in order to make that small attack chain workable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cone is -wide- and applies debuffs and procs nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crysta Clear Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 That's not a bad idea. I'll think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
