I'll just ask the question that probably most people have on their minds (don't know if any one else asked, but i'm not going to skim through 350 pages x.x)
-

With the 4 new Dragon Scim designs, do any of them bring back the original stance of how the weapon is held?

I believe what created most of the disgust for the new scimitars (made during the first graphics update on them) of the stance. Originally they were held out basically more in a realistic fashion of how a sword would be held, but ever since the graphics update they've been held straight up like how the Dragon long was held. I know tons of people did not like the new stance of the weapons being held, will any of the new designs revert it back to the original stance?

no one is gonna like this but i let my 3 year old son pick the one he liked and this is what he said. "i like the handle on c the best daddy but i wish it had the blade that B had so i pick c." and tbh i agree with him and chose c but i too like the blade on b. well eather one is a winner but a combined look would be killer.

The asymmetrical hilt of C is great; the great blob of metal on the end throwing off the weight is terrible.

B is most exciting, but I'd be concerned about whether those slender spikes will render well at smaller scales or lower resolutions. Likewise the notches on A might end up just looking scruffy, rather than cool. Plus, wouldn't you keep a dragon scimitar in good shape?

If I had to pick just one, I'd actually pick D. Runescape's physically plausible and elegant weapon shapes are part of it's draw for me. D is just a classy-if-slightly-oversized scimitar.

But I would be fine with an elaborate B-with-C-hilt if it renders well.
