Deadringers.9047 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I got the Bifrost to complete my ele recently, and yes I'm happy enough with the looks of it... but when you compare it to the Greatswords it just seems a bit naff... Sunrise/Twilight etc all have AMAZING effects in battle, and their footprints they leave behind. When you're following someone with a legendary Greatsword, you can REALLY tell, it's so obvious. Their cool foot prints are leaving a path behind them for like 10+ footprints or so it feels. They're also REALLY obvious and huge... Whereas my Bifrost leave footprints for like 3-4 steps max, they're very light in colour and pretty small.. Are there any legendary staffs that can compare to the great swords? 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liewec.2896 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 greatswords in general always seem to be the highlight of most sets, i don't know if its different teams that make different weapons (that would be weird XD) but yeah, greatswords are usually the best looking weapons!

If you remove their effects I find them (Sunrise/Twilight/Eternity) butt ugly. And when it comes to effects, I'm always impressed by those that cause large ice? spikes to form from the ground when slaying a creature. I wish that the footprint could be separated from the rest of the skin. First thing I did when I crafted Dreamer, was to add a skin. But I didn't mind its rainbow footprints :s Edited September 10, 2023 by Lucy.3728 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only using the vanilla Aurene staff atm but it is definitely very flashy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To compensate for the dullness of most greatsword play? Edited September 10, 2023 by Gibson.4036 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taclism.2406 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Tastes & colors ... I'd say most legendary gen1 skins are pretty dull compared to 2. The only gen1 I bothered doing was Howler Astralaria, Xiuqualt, Nevermore, Verdarach, Claw of Khan Ur and Exordium all have way more interesting shapes AND visuals effects imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jokke.6239 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 (edited) Gen 3 staff Jormag variant is my favorite so far (but have only personally used aurene, Jormag and primordius so far) Gen 2 staff is really unique, but maybe less flashy From gen 3 it seems like the longbow is the most "in your face" flashy. It seems to be the weapon with the biggest trail. Seems most gen 3 just have trail effect on specific places. Like the tip on the greatsword of staff The bow just have one giant trail Looks cool when it's on your back 🙂 Edited September 10, 2023 by jokke.6239 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Later legendaries are a lot classier-looking to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's beautiful, and I love it. 9 hours ago, Deadringers.9047 said: Sunrise/Twilight etc all have AMAZING effects in battle, and their footprints they leave behind.

I am immensely salty that the Nevermore and Astralaria footprints are nearly instantly gone, especially since Astralaria's are so beautiful. (unless this changed, and I completely missed it) My Sunrise/Twilight/Eternity footprints last forever, but my shiny special weapons last <1 second. 😭 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rauderi.8706 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Greatsword has always been the pet of the devs. Pretty obvious by how many classes get it and how good they've always been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, they have always been my favorite legos. I was pretty disappointed with some of the Gen2. The Gen3 at least had an option for picking the look you liked the best, but nothing matches the greatswords from Gen1 imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
