For me, personally, when I think of a Stego related weapon I think of a spiked club or mace. But when you want to use the pentagonal plates on its back as inspiration for the sword, I see it. And part of me wants to make the sword handle a bit longer so you can put a few spikes on the pommel and not interfere with his grip or swing.... just my personal opinion as a weapon designer....

I was just thinking of spike plates that go on his arms and across his shoulders.
kinda like Abarablue's spikes, but stego-plates and stuff on his back.

I can imagine him having a lot of spin moves.

I guess axes work too, but I'd just like to hear a better argument for why they'd be so much better.

Also, I just have to ask. Functionally, what is the difference between twin shields attached to gauntlets... And just normal twin shields? Seems to me like if they're separate, they'd be more versatile.
If they're separate like... Actually ALL of the other Quadro form power-ups you listed, as I brought earlier, the finisher could be some kind of combined buster weapon. I think conceptually that could make some kind of awesome roleplay toy. It would also reflect Thero's finisher in some way. Different, but under the same principle.

I thought it could be a compromise because I could my gauntlet weapon and you could get your handheld weapons. A person's forearms are pretty versatile, so that shield will have the same movements as your arm. For the stegosaurus thing, the blades on its back look like axes.

I figured it would be nice if Paleo's forms used their power ups in different ways like Thero uses them to power up his own body since their is a grappling oriented form whose finisher uses all them at once to power up a single attack.

while Quadro uses them as weapons to complement it's heavy knight- like build. And his finisher combines them into a powerful weapon.

Exactly. This exactly.

If the only basis for your suggestion is just because "they sort of look like axes," then that's exactly the kind of weak argument I was talking about. Because a sword like like THIS:



...Looks a heck of a lot like Stegosaurus blades to me.

I like your idea. We could do the stego sword thing Rollout, but only if the end of the grip has a small weight with spikes to represent a stegosaurus' tail which is spiked itself.

Yay! My idea got recognized!

Tbh, the Crossbone Gundam sword looks more like an ankylosaurus than a stegosaurus. No offense.
