Odachi Modifications / Feedback

Been looking back on some items and have been wanting to make some changes. (even if they are only client-side via file replacement in the end.)

Need some ideas for an attack(s) / idle stance. Tried doing it as a one handed weapon but it just sorta falls flat although I would still like the stealth to remain in one hand to allow for the inspect gani to be played on occasion.

Lemme know what you think and what I should try to do with it.

The left shows an inspect of the weapon.
The right shows the Stealth & Unstealth.

*Odachi's fade / glow can't be seen because of the offline editor.
*Odachi's current attack is the same as the basic sword.

I like it - is it a gani?

That's epic!

Yup. Need ideas for the attack / idle though because they are kinda bland.

Hmm i dont know if its possible but maybe have the attack do a spin almost like a saber which could transition into an almost forward lunge like jabbing someone with the tip of the sword. For the idle maybe have the sword held with two hands normally or similar to the katana?

Overall though Id say those ganis are fantastic.

I wish I could help, but never did some ganis before,

This could be a christmas melee, a reward like in 2014 (earn points by mining, collecting trash/mush, kills...), this was epic!

I love the ganis you did for the Odachi katana, but the sad thing is I don't own it :( I was 5k off from getting it

Gorgeous! :D

Nice flow

For a weapon that took time and effort to get
Perhaps it should have a dazzling and elegant attack
Since it is a melee that was released during Christmas
It should have christmasy attack
Christmas reminds me of snow and ice
Ice reminds me of ice skating
Ice skating reminds me of figure skating
Perhaps the attacking could be like figuring skating?


Such as, jabbing

Spinning - like the red crab dagger or 2014 spider dagger

Throwing the sword in the air, sword spins in the air, your graalian does a twirl spin while jumping and kicks the opponent in the face

Backflip kicks then when you land you jab them with the blade


A mix between fencing and ice skating


The idle gani should be having one hand on the sword holder thingy
And the other hand on the hilt of the blade
So it appears as if you're ready for combat 24/7

Looking smooth! You should do 2 attacks , Slice and Stab! :)

looking good so far
