Dragonbone Swords : V

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 6:47 am

Im not all too sure on how the sword will look like, but i hope that it wont be too much like the forsworn sword. Using what seems to be teeth it would probably be the most reasonable option, but if they do create it similar to this i hope for it to be an improved look.

I dont get why there wasnt dragonbone/dragonscale weapons from the beginning. The idea of them is great so i dont get why bethesda didnt include them from the start.

I do hope the blade itself isn't bone

Well wouldn't that kind of defeat the purpose of a "dragonbone" weapon?

I'm guessing it'll probably be a big bone with scales affixed along the length of it as the blade.

Not really. It defeats the purpose of a sword,wouldn't it just be a sword shaped club? What's wrong with just an awesome bone hilt. Anyway I'm sure it will be all bone I just hope it won't

I think it was odd that dragonbone based weapons was not in the base game. It makes logical sense to me that they should have been included with both types of dragon armor.

I just think this game was rushed, that is why we are getting features in patches with definite foreseeable in the future because this game still needs a lot of refinement and things like dragonbone weapons that should have been in the base game in the expansion pack.

People can carve things out of bone, I'd prefer a weapon carved out of dragon bones as opposed to an iron sword with a bone handle or something. I imagine a jagged, pointy looking awesome white blade and it sounds great to me.

Scaley

Dragonbone/scale arrows would be nice as well. I wish we could fletch in the game, it'd be useful in the beginning levels of the game.

YES! Though if that was a skill, I'd certainly have to make a character in the vein of Chevy Chase. If this reference is lost upon you all, I'm sorry.

Teeth, claws, and horns I bet, in fact the dragon bone bow (if there is going to be one) would probably be made from the rib bone of a dragon though I can see the dragonbone dagger actually being made out of actual dragon teeth or in the shape of a dragon's fang.

Carving something into the shape of a blade does not make it a blade
A full bone bow would be nice, considering the bone is flexible and strong

Sure it does, if I take a piece of wood and carve it to look like a fork, that makes it a fork. Any simple tool can be made of whatever you want it to be, it could be stone, metal or even some high-tech ceramic. Plus this is fantasy, the game has GLASS swords, I'm pretty sure they can manage to whittle down a dragon bone.

I'm hoping it will look something like a mighty version of this

there is a mod that adds dragon bone weapons and they look badass and really lore friendly you should look on youtube for them

A fork is not a sword. A blade needs more than just a sharp edge to be effective, otherwise its just a club. The Forsworn sword may as well be a mace. Full bone is a weak design.
Glass in TES is not brittle glass, its found in ore and forged like metal, plus in real life its used to strengthen copper

its a metal blade

its a metal blade

Still a fork though

No, a fork is not a sword and I wasn't trying to say it was.

It is however a tool, a blade can be made of many things. There are plastic knives for barbecues, does that make them not knives? I could carve a sword out of anything as long as it looks and functions as a sword, it's a sword. This is The Elder Scrolls, anything can be a sword, they could make a sword of cheese and we'd have to deal with it.
