I'd like to see some medieval types, still- so you can skin a weapon to your liking, but I like the overall design of the Abyss weapons. The glowies are very cool, but I agree you NEED to be able to change the rainbow pulsing to one steady color of your choosing. What would be even cooler is if you could choose from a color wheel to make your own unique shade. I can't imagine it would be very hard since those kinds of things are usually in Character Creation and unique to every individual anyway.

Like so:

If enough people post or whatnot, we could write a petition for some things that we weren't thrilled about in the cbt3. I dont know how we'd organize it, but I'm sure we could.

Until na/eu cbt, we cant do a thing. We cant make suggestions regarding cbt3 and the korean version, but they will monitor our cbs, so tweaks and adjustments will happen, but i think this is somewhat a large thing to ask, so a lot of ppl would be neede for that petition. But im with you, i support this action.

too flashy and too "cartoon-like"
I want some original weapons but with special effects like how epic weapons were in EQ1. I don't want toy weapons that look like skittles

i think you/we're mistaken if you think our voice in the states really matter. By the time CBT rolls around to US/EU, things will have been finalized in korea. They won't listen, seen it in L2 and other ncsoft games

They look waaaay too-cartoony to me. Seriously, this looks like they went through the WoW weapons and just started copying ****. The particle effects would be awesome if you could set it to one color, but the weapon models look ****in' plastic. Everything looks like it's just too fat. Samurai Longswords from L2 are proof that these artists can make ornate, badass swords that aren't a foot across. There are plenty of different cultures to draw inspiration from if you want some exotic weapon models to get away from the "medieval" feel, and they look a hell of a lot better than these massive plastic-looking pieces of crap.

Our voices don't matter NOW. Quite obvious since we have nothing to do with the beta. Once it swings by our way, we will already have a list of things that matter to the community. Not that they WILL care, but it's better to get ready before our CB/OB comes around.

they look nice and i like the fact that they change color but i was hoping it would be like the armor, when you engage into combat / get into combat-stance. as it is now it feels like you're on a disco <<

No it's not a "way to change", it flashes.

Look it's horrible:
