This is a weapon designed to fill in the last gap in the Sealed sword lines.

The 4 star version is similar to the Faust/Avenger lines but instead of being a straight edged blade there are short spikes along one side, and instead of a purple or yellow symbol on the blade it would be a sky blue color.

The 5 star version would have much larger spikes and they would be on both sides of the blade, the symbol around the blade would be have large curved spikes on the symbol as well.

The Charge attack would be 5 spears of light they would deal less damage than the DA sword charge beams but the total DPS would be the same, the 4 star version would only shoot 3.

It could look a bit similar to this: http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140309023620/monsterhunter/images/1...

Since the blade has spikes on the SIDE the standard swing style of the Sealed sword would make it so that the spikes on the side pierce.
The damage and charge time would be comparable to the Avenger lines but with pierce damage instead of elemental.

Maybe it'll look a little like this?

It's rather sloppy, sorry about that.
Here you go, "Five Star Version".

Cross-Over

Some other program.

I sadly don't have Photoshop, and MSPaint is simply too horrid in saving images.

I use Paint.NET, which usually ends up at that art website.

You can get an older version

You can get an older version of photoshop for free, you just need to make an adobe account (which is also free).

Thoughts

I think that the charge should have much faster 'spears' and much shorter release and start delays than the DA as well.

If the charge attack was to move faster we would need some sort of penalty; movement speed reduction while charging wouldn't be good since most pierce resist monsters are fast, a slight charge time increase would be OK since most players have CTR boosting armors nowadays.

Perhaps lower total DPS Slighty in exchange for that speed?
