Hey guys,

First off i love the destroyer weapons, specially the axe and hammer. Shield is okey. But the sword bothers me a little. it looks short and weird looking. So i redesign the sword and made it longer.

Maybe ANET will see this and reskin the sword!

Definitely needs to be longer, I'd buy your version and change from axe to sword if it was that long. Those few cm's really make a difference, a sword needs to have a long part on it not be stubby and fat.

Im suprisingly fond of the shorter style actually. It looks more brutal imo.

A high-end sword should be something you and other people can see not a stubby little knife that is obscured by the size of shields.

Yes, the Longsword is the longest, but it is not big enough.

It seems that people like anything that is big, long and shiny.

The Fellblade fits that description.

There are already too many short stubby weapons that look like a gladius in the hands of a male warrior.

As it is now, it looks better as a caster weapon. So yeah, maybe have two versions, a long sword and short sword.

I find this thread hilarious. Remember, it's not the size that counts but how you use it ... the illustrations are very suggestive

Agree, the blade itself should be a lot longer. As it is now is just way to ugly.

That would be incredibly awesome.

If some people have to keep the original sword, make a collector that lets you trade it for a longer one, like with the carapace shields, that way you can have both versions. But I don't see anybody keeping the original one over the new version.

Currently it looks so pathetic imho... like an overgrown dagger... my sword warrior will probably get a destroyer axe just because it looks so much cooler. Avoiding all the sexual inuedos, the destroyer "sword" really would look better with a longer blade.

I really wish it had been longer... Honestly, the model they have now should have been the daggers.

Maybe because it's a WARRIOR weapon? We're not bitching about a wand looking bad on a war. I'm not one to flame, but sheesh, is that even supposed to be an argument?

Absolutely /signed for revamping the blade length, even though it's not going to happen.

Come on, guys.

Even if it is longer, warriors still hold it like some kind of molten vacuum cleaner, this turns me totally off.

The fact that there was a chance it would turn you on is sad -.-"

Longer = Better. Its a WARRIOR weapon, forget the other professions.
