Style Yer Weapons

(disney would make a new store for all of this)

The first part of "styling" your weapons would be choosing which hand you hold it in. (left/right)

The second part would be choosing how you fire/cast (throwing knives, staff, doll, pistol). You could choose how you throw each dagger from a list of stances. you can choose whether your voodoll goes down or up when casting and how you shoot your pistol(under ur legs....)...etc. All to look cool. Now for the staff you can choose how your blast goes off and what color. (same for all the other spells) but you would be ranged on the colors, so you cant have a purple flame skull, but you CAN have white, blue and red...etc.

You can also choose a weapon trick that you do if you go afk. [theyre basically emotes] (ex. if you have you nades out, you can juggle them.)

*you could also change the color of your cutlass and dagger.*

These are just a bunch of smoke and mirrors to make the game 1) more customisable 2) for appealing to the eye.

Thanks, any suggestions or comments are accepted!

Interesting idea , but I favor the option of having different weapons for are usual weapons.
Like the option to have a cutlass doing 8+ damage , then just choosing the blade you want to go with that 8+ damage.

For options you could chose a Saber , Dao , longsword,broadsword , Eepe ,
Hanger, Jain , Rapier and just a regular small cutlass.

And then options for other weapons , like for pistols you choose the arrangement of the barrels.

Staff - choose the coulors of the stone / and shape of the stick.

And for the other weapons you could guess.

They can keep the weapon damages the same - just give us variety of blades, hilts etc.

I believe some other people have shared their brief explanations in other threads, but yours is much more complex.(In a good way!) I would love to see these in the games, but if we were to style, or customize our doll and staff, I'd like to see a gypsy shop. Very good ideas.

P.S. Wait, rainbow casting, sweet! I'd love to be able to have multiple colors for staff casting. I'm sure there's a lot of people that would love a Black/Orange mix for Halloween.(Since it's the closest holiday)

whether weather should be included!?

Ok ironhawk, what you said about the rainbow gave me an epiphany!! I think weather should be implemented in the form of staff spells.

These would be simple weather changing spells you earn by leveling (rain, snow, though it doesnt snow in the caribbean , fog ... etc.). Now, it comes to the fork in the road......

1) Does the spell just affect the players view, or 2) every one in that areas view? Well, this could be decided by big D themselves.

If the spell just affects you, than it would cause no controvery and everything would have that realistic touch. But, at the same time, no one else would have the same feeling as you (of course you could tell your crew which weather affect to put on their screen.... hmmm).

Now if it affected the whole area from one player, it could be the highest lvl pirates spell that engulfs all the lower lvls casts.... but, that just wouldn't be right. Maybe the spells could be purchased at the gypsey shop reffered to in ironhawks post.

Based on my detaled analy
