[quote=“richardyangran, post:24, topic:3353”]It’s interesting to read comments above and learn how the others think about this weapon and chain sword in this game.
Ok, there are some problems to solve, and the initial idea of this item is that I want a middle size melee weapon with a small volume.
When using bows and guns, I’d like to switch to melee weapon when monsters close to me, and the ordinary middle size weapon would take 6 volume or more, I want a smaller one.
It’s true that beam swords only exists in space fantasy, but we also have mystery like artifacts in this game, and my point is if we can not figure out the components of this items, we just not allow players to craft it, this item can only find in the lab.
And in what situation should players use this weapon ? It’s not a weapon for long period battle, it’s powerful but also need much power supply, so unless players have enough power supply or in danger, there is no need to use it. Yes, I mean it’s a “burst DPS” weapon, it help much when you are crowded by zombies.
Just try to make it reasonable.[/quote]
Stick some combat knives in your boot, hell I think by a grace of code you can stick a bloody Zweihänder in your boot. As far as artifacts go someone correct me if I’m wrong on this but aren’t they based off the Artifacts and Anomalies from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and it’s source of inspiration Roadside Picnic? S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is post-apocalyptic/science fiction.
Or a machete? Though if you’re going for a CQC weapon that’s silent and melee, keep some kind of knives in boots (Which if I’m correct don’t encumber you at all?) alternatively, get an Adamantine Claws bionic, Hydraulic Muscles, or Chain Lightning. With the claws you and unweild your bow, activate the claws and go to town, with the muscles you can just activate them and gib some zombies, and well I’ve never gotten to use Chain Lightning.
