I thought of a sword line based off the ever popular Katana!!!

Here's what I think ( May provide pictures later :P )

2-Star ,3 Star ( Path 1 )

Name: Edge ,Sharp Edge

Average damage ,Average 3* Damage Piercing

slightly faster then average swords ( About Spur speed ) , Same as B4

Element: Normal

5* Path 2

Voltana

Status Effect: Shock

Normal damage

about same damage as LB

Thats all i can think of for now as you can see alot of missing slots!! Im accepting ideas and HELPFUL Criticism iff your starting a war dont bother commenting!

Sleeping Vaporizer

Elemental Bomb

Like other elemental bombs but Sleep Element

Matches cos its releases sleep gas. I guess?

Again, Ideas please!

In response...

Idk much about swords in the first place. The suggestions seem balanced and fun enough to use.

No to the sleeping vaporizer. Shivermist does the immobilization job well enough and Sleep heals enemies inflicted by the status effect.

Good point

Thats a good point..but if used in conjuction with Toxic Vaporizer it could be deadly since Shivermist justs breakes after you hit it, and BTW Sleeping Vaporizer is 2 star version

Well i know Sleeping is 2*

But im pretty sure you mean to release a sleeping bomb line, which would go from something like:

Sleeping Vaporizer --> sleeping vaporizer mk II --> ??? (Sleeping Powder Bomb?) ----> Nighttime's Lovejoy??

(I'm bad at names hah)

But i guess, in conjunction with poison it'd be effective...

What Dark Ritual?

We already have a fast piercing sword, why not give the slow sword users (Like me) some love for slow ones. I'd love a slow sealed sword piercing line, personally.

Names? Clueless.

Sealed Sword--->???--->??? (Piercing Line)

As for the sleep bomb, they removed sleep to rework around on it, but...

Sleeping Vaporizer (2*)
Sleeping Vaporizer Mkii (3*)
Sleeping Atomizer (4*)
Luna of [K]night (5*)

Will think of better names for 5* if asked.

there actually is.

the nightblade branch is very similar to a katana.. it even has it's own scabbard. check it out.

Just letting you guys know.

Just letting you guys know. It's highly unlikely for sleep to be released into the game again since it's OP in lockdown, and we already had the UVs removed from armours for it. Not to mention slooms don't appear anymore so where would you get the zee cores to make the bomb?

Why did you necro this

Nightblade. There is no argument against this.

Sleep is unbalanced, see above posts for reasons. Also, Plate lines still have sleep weakness.

They can always re-balance sleep

And then its all good.
My suggestion to re-balance sleep :
Sleep status heals the inflicted to full health and makes them immobilized for... say, 6 seconds?
I don't think that can be to OP, and plus you would have to be real careful.
Can't just go spamming sleep everywhere, you better make sure you can attack them afterward.

A haze bomb that fully heals

A haze bomb that fully heals any enemy in range? No thank you, I'll stick to Stagger Storm and Shivermist

@Bisento

Thats the point, it will be real difficult to use.
But if used well with others, 6 seconds should be enough time for your team mates to take out those skolvers/vog cubs while they're asleep.
I have not thought of if this would be OP in PvE yet so far, but it think right now i have it balanced for LD.
I do know this would be a terrible bomb for bosses, though.
Come on guys, lets try and discuss how to make sleep not OP so we can see sleep monsters again and get weapons that inflict sleep!
