I don't think this has been discussed anywhere, I did use the search feature
The Ranked Psy-Sword (not to be confused with the Ranked Psy-Blade) for whatever reason has the look and usage effect of a Power Claw or something that uses the Brawler profession. I think this is an oversight because the Omegaton Power Claw Mentor Edition, and all powerfists, do not have a sound effect on my PC. All other melee types work fine on my PC but not Power Claw/Fist. Dunno if this same bug exists for everyone, however the important part is that the Ranked Psy-Sword also does not have a usage sound effect. This leads me to believe that the devs accidentally used the Ranked Psy-Blade graphics/sound for the Ranked Psy-Sword. I own 4 Ranked Psy-Swords right now and I also still get them confused with the Ranked Psy-Blade. I think this may have been a simple oversight.
For those of us that use melee, the look and effect of the blade is very important....
The Power Claw look and usage effect is undesirable on a long blade. This is a sword and as a result, it should have the look of a sword.... It should not look the same as a Ranked Psy-Blade, the Power Claw.
If there is not currently a design on the table for the Ranked Psy-Sword, perhaps I can lend some ideas...
Since the name is not Ranked Combat Sword, maybe it shouldn't simply be the big brother (in looks) to the Ranked Combat Knife. Perhaps instead, it could be the big brother in design to the Ranked Psy-Blade, using the blade graphics effect that it currently has, but expanded on and made into a proper long blade. However either way is fine... just as long its an actual sword.
Thanks
