Ammanas Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) Here are some of my favorites and a brief explanation of what sets them apart: Swords of the Cross from Dresden files- I love the idea these swords being set apart to battle the enemies of God and if used unrighteousnesly they break Excalibur from King Arthur: Probably the most famous of all swords Fragarach from Iron Druid chronicles- It forces whoever it is pointed at to tell the truth and can summon wind Dragnipur from malazan- If killed by it than your soul gets transported to another realm Vorpal sword from Alice-I just really like saying the name Shardblades from Stormlight (Of course) Sword of Truth from the series by the same name- I like the idea of it remembering the skills of the previous bearers (its been a very long time since I have read these books and am not interested in it turning into a Goodkind bashing thread) Memory, sorrow, Thorn by the series by the same title- great backstory for each one And the last one might be my personal favorite Daubendiek, the Great Sword of Suchara, the fabled weapon once wielded by the tragic hero of the ancient age, Tureck Aarant from Glen Cook's The Swordbearer. The blade demands blood and demands much from its bearer, but it makes the wielder very powerful and comes with a angry dwarf that is its guardian throughout the ages. What are your favorites?

Toaster Retribution Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 Nightblood is my favorite by a long shot. That said, there are others: -Darksaber from Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels looks amazingly cool. Ezras lightsaber is also nice, in that it has a blaster attatched to it. -Beric Dondarrions sword (ASoIaF/GoT) can be lit on fire (I am unsure how much this has to do with the sword being unique, but it looks storming awesome). -Shardblades in general. Firestorm (Gavilars Blade) and Sunraiser (Elhokar) because of the names. -Frostmourne, Arthas sword in Warcraft. It looks great, corrupts its bearer and consumes souls. It gives the word "badass sword" a new meaning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briar King Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 It should be noted that if you chose to look at it so all the weapons in FF15 are Shardblades. You d have to play it or look up combat on YouTube but it's definitely similar! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
