i do agree characters are popular not just based on weapons the dao suits sun quan well and with weapon switchin u can technically give any character any weapon i feel to keep changing sun quans sword wouldnt b the best way to revamp as the dao wudnt go to a new character i dont think
sun quan would benefit from a revamp like he got in wo3 :-)

I can't really find the words to go into a detailed post, but I do want to share my opinion on this. So, here goes.

Flint Sword/Flame Sword: I think I'm more in the "Sun Quan + Flint Sword" camp, on this one for a lot of the reasons listed above. The moveset itself seems to favor a lot of Quan's style as it has evolved over the past few games. The inherent fire effect is definitely a Wu staple. Then there's also the resemblance to the old school Wolf Sword. Also, it would ensure that every single ruler in the game has a truly unique weapon.

Flying Dragon Greaves: Make the weapon model for these bad boys a little bit smaller. As for who these should go to, that's a 50/50 argument, IMO. If given to Guan Suo, as it seems these are destined for, then what I also think needs to happen is that his Musous could use a bit of a redesign because although good, they don't particularly stand out, to me. If these go to a new character and Suo keeps the nunchaku, then give him some of Ling Tong's attacks from WO3.

Okay... I guess this turned out a little more detailed than I thought. *lol*

It wouldn't be the end of the world if Quan didn't get the Blaze sword, but if any ruler needs improvement (i.e. unique) Quan does. But I believe the Blaze sword should go to someone from Wu or early Wei/Shu/Others, if it goes to anyone.
Greaves, it depends. I don't think Guan Suo needs them. His moveset is fine as is, and I'd hate to see the nunchucks to be on the road looking for another owner after it was taken away from the original owner. I'd like this moveset to go to an early Shu character if anyone.

I just want the nunchaku to be buffed or at least returned to their original state in a future game. Losing the jump cancel on the switch attack really makes their ranged game awful. Some of Ling Tong's charges in WO3 would be great with the ability to jump cancel, so perhaps they can just recycle those and make them seem "new" again.

I'm hoping if they decide to change the nunchucks owner that they do use the charges from WO3 as well. While I have no problems with the nunchucks in general, it does feel stunted compared to the range from DW5.

I truly believe the blaze sword ownership should go to Sun Quan in the next dw game
Why? Fire (Wu and all that fire is a staple), old school weapon, design looks awesome, makes Quan extremely acrobatic which is what I love about the blaze sword! Plus its totally unique to the boring Dao and plus it gives Quan that sort of emperor-ish look to him if wielded in cutscenes

As for greaves....Someone who hasn't got massive feet no doubt, the weapon would look stupid on someone with huge feet...

My ranting is over....

if sun quan did get the flame sword and guan suo the leg greaves which is a possibility i hope the dao and nunchucks get a good revamp and go to someone else in future

if new characters got them id hope the flame sword goes to Zhu Ran if added and the leg greaves go to zhang ni or Yi if added mainly because of the great design concept i had for them both were one was a fist fighter and the other was like a kickboxer haha xD

I can say that the BBlade is one of my fav. moveset in the game.
I hope the Emei'cis turn out to be just like it. In a few more hours we'll know :whistle:

And given the last of the DLC this month will be previewed, we might see a preview of what to expect next month (Probably the last of the DLC weapons before XL is announced).

its usually two a month, so i wonder if they are going to do two more or just save the last two for XL.

Someone refresh my memory, all the DLC weapons in DW7: Mace, Boomerang, Iron Boat, Ring Blade, Dagger Axe, Great Axe, Bombs, and Short Pike. They were all released in DW7, or were some held off for DW7XL? (I cant remember...)

Either way, there were 8 in total so I hope there are at least 8 total this time as well. But I hope the last few are returning weapons rather than all new ones...I want some nostalgia...

So we can expect 2 or 4 more new weapons till Xtreme Legends ? Something around that, but I agree with Mr.Kamikase, bring back 1 or 2 returning weapons.

I have my card waiting for the DLC :rolleyes:

It may not be the last. Probably the last regular one. There may be one of two weapons are stages that are added after an XL announcement. I'm sure Koei has dozens of other DLC to throw in our faces.

^^Most likely. Plus a possible costume batch for new characters and if I recall the Fairy Tale costumes were released around when XL was announced. And then they added stages, and a few more weapons along with it.

Original DW7 DLC Weapons:

Dagger Axe, Bombs, Short Pike, Mace, Great Axe. The Twin Trishula was supposed to be #6, but due to the PSN Hacking, it was moved to being Wang Yi's weapon in XL.

DW7:XL DLC Weapons:

Batons (Still refuse to call them Pugil sticks), Spike Shield, Lightning Sword, Boat (Ditto for the Arm Blade), Circle Blade, Boomerang.

Basically, don't expect there to be any more than six at the most.

DLC is out.

The moveset of the Emei weapons are awesome, really. The color of the 4th weapon is a red/brown color. The moveset have some blue effects. It's neither masculine or feminine.

If Xiaoqiao is getting her Twin Fans back, thank the Gods! She needed 'em and I'm happy for those who even have even a slight chance of them being given to her in Empires ;) .

Uh-oh.... :cool:

Glad that it looks like they are bringing back some of the good things of DW6.

That military theme doesn't look that great. At least compared to the amusement park one. It looks like a bunch of blocks put together while the park looked very detailed.
