Granted, I'm no artist. My drawings on paper is equivalent of a Kindergardener's picture to his mother he painted in class. My picture editing on the computer is used with Paint. However, I try.

In my opinion, the Destroyer sword looks like an oversized thumb tack, made of rock that seems to have lava on it. It's bulky and ugly. I was thinking, if it looked more like a saber, it'd be more favored. The Destroyer Axe and Hammer look awesome! But the sword looks ugly.

I made two (crappy) versions of the Destroyer sword. I favor the top one more, but the bottom was random, I thought it looked interesting. Should other skins be changed too, the ones that suck and no one uses...I dunno, I thought the Destroyer Sword is ugly. Some may think it's awesome. That's why this thread is here. Discuss.

I think it looks less like a sword and more like a novelty axe. The bottom one is better, I'd say.

What about all the people who already bought the destroyer sword and are happy/like it the way it is? Are they supposed to just have their item they bought changed because you don't like it? If you don't like it, don't get it. Don't try to ruin a weapon for people who already like it and have it.

Someone made a better looking rendition months ago.

I agree the current sword doesn't look as cool as the other Destroyer weapons.

It's not that it's ugly, it's just like all the other Destroyer weapons; bad. You don't have much to design from if you're limited to a big pile of molten rock in the shape of a Sword, or Shield etc...

Here's a tip: If you don't like it - don't use it. There are enough of other skins around.

I only have one to add +1 more to my req9 sword collection other than that no way I'm going to use it it's way too ugly and I highly doubt they are gonna change it no matter the complains.

I don't mind the Destroyer Sword too much. My only gripe is that I wish the blade was longer.

QFT. I didn't buy it personally, but I like some skins that most people don't, and with the Destroyer Sword's price, anyone that bought it and like its skin would be scr*wed.

If it was about having the option to change the skin, I would /sign, but I highly doubt it's doable.

That case applies to most changes and true you can't make everyone happy, only Idea I have in mind atm is a poll on most GW fansites so Anet can see what the community wants imo.

Some people might like it, it shouldn't be changed just because you don't like the skin.

Dude, nobody likes it. It's an ugly, ugly failed attempt at ripping off Anarchy Online's popular Stygian Desolator. Which doesn't work in the slightest. But don't expect Anet to change it. Just expect them not to stick these weapons in GW2 and be grateful for small mercies.

The Destroyer Sword sucks because all the awesome went into the Destroyer Hammer. If you make the sword awesome, then they'd have to nerf the hammer (you can't create awesome... you have to get it from somewhere)

Which'd suck. Just use the hammer.
Sorry Rhanoct, no lazers

Well the person you sent out to the store to buy it was accidently shot by a mysterious assasin...*hides the bow and arrow behind his back* or a person practicing archery about 10m away...

Destroyer weapons are a lazy, blatant ripoff of Daedric weapons.

It's not really a ripoff, I play oblivion so I should be able to notice the differences. Mostly the coloration is...yea they're ripoffs.

I think the sword looks fine the way it is. If you don't like it I suppose you'll just have to find a skin you do like. You cannot expect everyone to like/dislike a skin just because you do.

Destroyer weapons are rediculously easy to get, they deserve to be as ugly as they are. And people who want them deserve to be seen walking around with ugly weapons.

Btw I am well aware that the reasoning behind making them so rediculously easy to obtain is for everyone who wants them to be able to have them in the HoM. Just some lame way of pleasing all the wannabe leet players who still think having a destroyer weapon in your HoM makes you cool.

I wouldn't let my dog's heroes carry D. weapons.

I would say this if you don't like the weapon don't craft it or buy it as I don't particularly like them.

Destroyer weapons are just tokens that you buy in GW to unlock the bonus weapon pack in GW2. I bought one of each skin, recorded at HoM and dumped them to heroes that I never use. Out of sight, out of mind, problem solved. For all I care they could look like pink fluffy bunnies.

Are you saying this is the same as saying similar for UB? Don't even go there... there were enough threads closed by that and you know my stand on it.

Probablly. I don't like the shield either, but the axe is about the only destroyer weapon I like. Love the shape of it.

Yea, I'll be honest. They did a really bad job of painting that sword. The shape is fine, but they need to change the pattern on it.
