This sword seems not to be balanced out, it´s rather unsymmetrically.

I like it, and I dont mind it being unsymmetrical, I think it is maybe better that way...

I agree With Hermie.

Great sword! I don't see how its "unsymmetrical" and if it is I still say "great sword"! Hmmm perhaps this could be implemented in the future and it could have the characteristic of "freezing and slowing" down an opponent if the opponent is hit by the sword. That would balance fighters and mages out

. I think the same could be done for the Fire sword. It could "burn" an opponent if the opponent was hit and slowly take the opponent's health away for a limited amount of time because of the "Burning". But then these two swords of the elements fire and ice would have to become artifacts, unsmithable by any smith, and an artifact because of their amazing abilities and power. I would like to end with "great sword"!

The one problem I see with artifact weapons is that, in most cases, they are grabbed by some newcomer who runs off. Usually never to return. Jealous that I've never gotten a non-evil artifact? Naw... As for the sword, I think the blade is just a bit too broad at the end.

Well, it seems that the sword is "unsymmetrical" in that the blade isn't properly aligned with the hilt. Notice how the bottom edge of the blade is a perfect horizontal line while the top edge is slanted. If the image was rotated 90 degrees clockwise so that the sword is pointing upwards, you would notice the blade slanted towards the right side. It's not as noticible from the current angle though.

At first, I didnt get what you ment by unsymetrical, but after DYluck explained it, it makes more sence. I will see if I can fix it sometime.

Crosis, when you can not think of something due to your grafik making (a flaw perhaps no offence) you can just blame it on the smith!

I'm not strict when it comes to graphics. It looks fine.

sorry crosis but its the wrong angle, REMEMBER THIS EVERYONE, INCLUDING ME, hehe, martin is very irritated with people doing this.

it dosent matter whether the blade is unsymettrical or not. It is, ill give you guys that, but its better that way. this is supposed to be medevil times, making a sword was hard work and could not always be as perfect or straight as everyone would have wanted it.

Since when were swords always made perfect? I just thought it was a shadow or something.

Like mentioned before this isn't an ice sword

This is called a Blue Sword if you give it a nice fitting red colour you could call it Blood Sword or something,it looks nice though it's just not an ice sword......

The way i see it is this is Medievil times and no sword could be made perfectly, even today there are flaws in weaponry. That is of course it's made by lasers. But graphics don't really matter to me (I play Runescape). And from what i've seen of this game you would never get a super zoomed picture of the sword to begin with and would nobody would probably notice that the thing is a little uneven on one side. And incase any of you didn't know the Roman sword named the Gladius was a very broad sword and had a very blunt end. It was made for slashing. Well i'm probably rambling to some of you hardcore gamers out there, I bid you farewell.
