THE WALL

THE WALL

NO ONE ON EARTH CAN MAKE IT FALL

If you're in a shield wall you're bashing dudes with your shield as much or more than your spear.

I put all of them on hammer

ok so a spear is basically a baby trident so it's gotta be water

It's pretty easy, really

i took nature to mean like, plants, and i think swords and flowers go good together

I can definitely understand poison dagger.

That whip choice is volcel-judge

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

I stand by it, do your worst

[–] Pili@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

  • Light shield to protect against the darkness
  • Poison dagger, because poison coated dagger is a classic
  • Darkness sword because it seems to be the most convenient to swing around in the dark when you don't see anything
  • Thunder whip because they have a lot of similarity, long and thin, with a crack on impact
  • Wind bow because the arrows fly through the air
  • Nature claws because they remind me of a bear's claws
  • Water spear because of Poseidon's trident
  • Earth knuckle because fist fighting is a RETVRN to traditions
  • Ice hammer for breaking the ice
  • Fire axe because why not, they are the last ones

Are we talking what kind of elemental affinity we'd assign to a weapon or what enchantment would work best with it?

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

whatever reasoning comes to you

like I keep going back and forth between "balrog's flaming whip" vs "whipcracks like thunder" vs "poison ivy plant manipulator"

Surprise is the best element for every weapon.

I like this

[–] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Posting my take before I wade into the struggle session

Adding reasoning:

Earth shield, obvious sturdy combo

Dark dagger, good for sneaking

Light sword, holy relic but still kinda basic

Ice axe, did this one last but it kinda still makes sense

Nature whip, pokemon vine whip need I say more

Wind bow, long shots, gusts can alter arrows trajectory

Fire claws, fast attacka make the cumulative damage add up quickly, similar to the poison knuckles reasoning

Water spear, sweeping fluid slashing and sharp, jet like stabs just fit water. Fluid yet forceful

Poison knuckles, rapid punches add up the poison damage fast

Thunder hammer, it's already a great big concussive hit, thunder just increases it
