Suggestion: Scythes

[Syler]

Hello!

 

I have long dreamed of living out my perfect Grim Reaper Vigilante fantasy amongst video games. Darksiders 2 comes to mind. 

 

I would be over the moon to see a power pool around Scythes. I imagine it somewhere between Titan Weapons and Staff fighting with either bleed procs or some sort of "sow" or "execute" combo system baked in. A predominance of cone AOEs most likely since it is, in the real world, an extremely unpractial weapon. I can think of several ideas of attacks for the weapon set ranging from simple slashes to raking to spin2win AOEs. Thrown in a build up/taunt for relevant ATs ofc. 

 

But if that is far, far to much to ask, then maybe just a couple of Scythe-skin options for staff fighting ranging from common farm scythe to legendary grim-reaper-lich levels (a-la Myrkul from BG3)

 

Thanks for reading!

Envisioning such a set is one thing. Actually creating the whole new models and animations it'd almost certainly require is quite another. It'd be cool but I wouldn't get your hopes up.

I’d be down for a Scythe set, sounds interesting.

Even if they added the appearance to another set, vs creating a new set, either way, don't care, but new options are good.

 

I will say though, that personally, I really want to see another Mastermind Primary before any more melee. 

Melee already has over twenty sets.

Masterminds have seven sets. 

 

A little love for MM's is seriously overdue.

Completely agree. As an MM main from Live they are so fun but to the above point, animating all of the motions would be rather intensive then programming those to work with the already convoluted MM systems would likely be tough. 

 

I was a bit disappointed getting on Homecoming and they added a couple of dogs as a the only new options. 

 

Maybe they could recycle some assets from enemies in the game. Like "Aliens" with re-skinned Rikkti would be pretty awesome honestly.
