Arden.7480 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 If it's a new legendary dagger, it looks very poor. I hope this dagger you showed in the trailer was a precursor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrequentia.3465 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 that would have been the legendary. in old nightfall gw1 style but you don't know what the effects are. just like the hammer wich in the trailer looked lame but with the nighttime effects looked awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziooo.8932 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 That was probably the legendary, yes. Bear in mind that they didn't show any effects apart from the draw one. Well, at least this means ill be keeping my incinerator... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Hide.6345 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Yeah, I wasn't impressed that much with them. Look too much like the HoM Centurions Claw Daggers. Was hoping for something more transforming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReaverKane.7598 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I like them, and it's obviously the legendary (draw animation). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojo.6140 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I was wondering that as well, since it doesnt give any arm-effect, wich every gen2 weapon does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer more transforming weapons like the arcane rifle and order of whispers daggers over plain simple designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardid.7203 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 It was being used by an Asura. Weapons used by Asura never look truly impressive: the details dissapear in the smaller size, the effects are often less noticeable, there is more clipping, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge shot Grif.6450 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I know the content is asura themed but you don't showcase new legendaries on asuras. Charr would be the best class since their weapons are bigger and more visible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering how tiny Asura weapons are in general, I'd reckon those might actually be really big when used on other races. Or so I hope. Less dinky dagger, more awesome claw weapon.

Ardid.7203 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I would plead, AGAIN: please make weapons on Asura bigger. I understand they are a small race, but still, the weapon models are too small to see. Please give them some extra love, so they shine as in other races. More size, special texturing, I don't know, something! I would personally make them a bit thicker but not much longer, and change the angles of use in the animation so they stop clipping the ground.

The problem with that is the weapons would then look out of proportions and weird. They would become comical looking if they increased the size anymore.

Donari.5237 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I wish more blades in this game looked like they have sharp edges. Maybe it's just motion blur in the video but that thing looks butter knifed edged to me. Charr are master metalsmiths, I'd expect the legendary Claw to hold gleamingly lethal menace. /shrugs ... At least I can keep focusing on ... heh ... the focus legendary I have desultorily started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohoni.6057 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I hope it's neither. It's just an ugly looking blade. We haven't gotten a legendary dagger since launch, and likely won't see another for years, I wish it were more of a. . . _dagger,_ like a handle with a pointy big sticking out one end.

Agreed, I HATE how dinky some of their weapons look, although it's more an issue with GS and hammer. The big problem there is that their legs are shorter than other races relative to their bodies, so to keep the weapons from dragging on the ground they made them even shorter still relative to their height. The better solution would be that instead of having them sit diagonally across their backs like on other races, they should have mounted the weapons horizontally across the shoulders. That way they could stick out far to the sides and end up clipping with things that way, but who cares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khailyn.6248 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 While yes, i can see why they used an Asura to model the weapon considering this next chapter looks all about inquest, but its not a good race to show weapon or armor models. The dagger itself looks quite underwhelming but as others above have said, so did the hammer. So im going to reserve judgement until the episode is released. I guess people wanted something large and glowy like warglaives of azzinoth. Everyone has their own tastes, cant please them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assic.2746 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 This dagger might be cooler that it seems at the first glance. Watch the trailer in slow motion (0.25). **When it stops spinning it extends a little.** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWMO.4785 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Dunno, it looks a lot like a slight modified version of [Centurions Claw](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Centurions_Claw_(skin) "Centurions Claw"). Which does disappoint me, cause regardless of how nice or ugly the legendaries where. They where always unique stand-alone skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
