    What about Vi's gloves? They are steampunkish, though. Still, one can make them more futuristic... Maybe make finges Rayman-like? You know, floating around, you can charge them and shoot. It migh be a melee AND range weapon.

    Yeah, they were putting his glasses on everything for a while. I liked that the creators were kinda poking fun at the absurdity of anime. I mean by the end they were throwing galaxies like ninja stars. Which in itself is a weapon idea. Galaxy ninja stars!

    no need to make it futuristic, it can be a glitch tech


    that anime is just epic, nothing more to add

    Can't go wrong with Scythe's-

    Hammer with the same effect as the Gravity Hammer effect-
    [​IMG]


    Short Swords with the same chain effect as "The Blades of Chaos"
    [​IMG]


    Ultra Long Swords (This is an obvious must have in starbound) -
    [​IMG]


    Some Melee/Ranged weapons (Another obvious must have) -
    [​IMG]


    Thats just a few of my suggestions, I might post more in the near future.

    Probably mentioned already but I would love to see some 'Gunblades' in the game.
    I know you can dual wield a gun in 1 and and a sword in another but I would love to
    have a Gunblade in 1 hand and a shield in the other.

    I've not read through all 44 pages of this but hopefully I've got a few that have not been thought of. I'm including boomerang style things because they are labelled as melee damage in things like Terraria. Not all sci-fi either. You can probably tell I was looking at films!

    Sick Stick - Minority Report, does little/no damage but gives debuffs (sickness - duh!)
    Stun Baton - Demolition Man, similar idea different debuff...
    Light Arc thingy - Blade Trinity, mixture of light saber and batleth. Kinda cool.
    Mjolnir - the hammer of Thor, smashes things works a bit like a boomerang too!
    Batarang - Batman, yea... just another tie in
    Oddjob's Hat - Oddjob, stylish AND deadly

    Would love to see legendary weapons like Mjolnir in the game. Also like the idea of the Sick Stick as a low damage but deadly debuffing style weapon.
