lpinkus Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Yeah, maybe the post is not *that* serious, so perhaps it shouldn't be in "runescape discussions." However, anyone can register for these forums, so unless people are being offensive or scamming, I guess they can talk about whatever they want. I'm not saying I like seeing tons of silly ideas, but I read these posts for entertainment, at least in part. It's not like it's a forum about scuba diving, which could offer bad advice about resurfacing that could hurt someone :) I voted "nay" on the new proposal for ninja swords, by the way. lpinkus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FusionX Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 the idea of implementing a ninja sword itself is not a bad idea. perhaps agility would have something to do with its use, but be more specific, don't just come on here yelling DRAGON NINJA SWORD RULES or whatever.

Mastersigmaker Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 I think it waould be an awesome idea if there were so any more dragon items like a ninja sword. PLEASE LEAVE YOUR COMMENTS ON THIS ISSUE You make way too many dumb topics, and you are a chicken feather(i.e. NOOB) so shut up plx you should never attempt to insert a floppy disk in a 56X CD-ROM drive, as floppy disk shrapnel hurts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelDude20 Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 whats so good about the "NINJA" part why not just make it a sword with good stats we don't need flashy themes on weapons as long as they're good i don't care! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volcom Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 Im suprised at the repliers stupidity... I mean every single person has gone "pmg dragon ninja sword.. how dumb!!!111oneoeneshfit11" I think he gets the point, no need to copy and paste the above persons reply and change a few words like we all do in our essays ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Excuse me, but what do you mean by "ninja sword?" Do you mean a kodachi, a ninja-to, a wakizashi, or what? I don't really see this as an issue. Perhaps you should start thinking about more complicated topics to post about. Sorry, but i am pretty sure only about 2% of people know what a "kodachi, ninja-to and wakizashi" are. Probably less. I think a ninja sword is a much more appropriate usage of word, because people will actually understand it. ==ice== So lets dumb down rs any more to apeal to the people who don't know? And btw, if they saw a "ninja-to" ingame, they would instantly be like that item = Ninja-to. Its not brain surgury you know. I'm guessing katanas will be out shortly though, with that samari looking guy from the new quest and all :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran_Shadow2 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 well since todays update this topic sure takes a different ruit, the idea of ninjas is highly more possible now, but i doubt if there are new weapons they will be called ninja swords, most people know what katana means, at least i do :wink: and hey, i used to think mace was a type of fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats just my guess though :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superchamp Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 I figured the dragon long had fit the bill for that pretty well. But speaking of ninja weapons, I wouldn't mind seeing a sickle on a chain. You could throw it outward to strike enemies from a distance, and its special attack could have glowing and spinning of the weapon before swinging it vertically in a big earth-smashing slash (earth-smashing as in the cool red glowing flash effect appearing to bisect the opponent). My other invisioned attack would be for it to go in the ground, with multiple sickles bursting up from the ground a second later. That could even be a new magic spell.

superchamp Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Yeah, maybe for short it could be called an " flail" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonorhc Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Flails are totally different weapons. For one thing, they actually have a shaft, and the piece of metal on the end of the short chain, whether spherical or elongenated, is of the bludgeoning sort, rather than slashing. A kusari-gama, on the other hand, is a kama (short haft with a sickle blade extending from the end at a 90-degree angle) on the end of a long (think two-to-three-metre) chain.

Orzu Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Omoshiroi nee... 1) Aren't there already ninja monkies on Ape Atoll? The annoying ones that shoot arrows at you immediately after you break out of jail? If anyone could teach us to be ninjas it's those monkies, but they hate us. 2) This post isn't going anywhere soon... 3) Zonorhc, I appreciate the depth of your typical posts and all, but hardly anyone knows weapons by their proper names, especially if they're from feudal Japan...not much point trying to educate the ignorant masses on this board, it's like setting up a dam with toothpicks one by one.

Well this has nothing to do with anything but I always thought it was spelled kusari-gUama and they took the shaft off when attaching to the chain?

superchamp Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I know flails are different, but some people get whiny about that stuff I would like to learn ninja-like things from the Ape Atoll monkeys, like climbing walls with claws and stuff. I know that'll probably go overboard with people climbing all over buildings in Varrock with claws. :P I would like to see a monkey dueling arena at Ape Atoll with new skills acquired as you win more battles... or something. I'd love to bring and equip a pair of rune scimitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're broad terms, and I'd rather that people, particularly those who suggest their implementation, be fairly accurate with names. As for the actual weapon, I think the Dragon Longsword comes close though it is only one-handed.

Yup. it anoys me too, i mean, you could at least use a term people know like "katana" instead of "ninja sword". i'm almost postive most people know what a katana is... :?
