RowdyGryphon Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 I have always been under the impression that a given living shard blade weighs the same no matter the shape, hence you might as well make it big. It is a Spren manifesting themselves physically, so in my opinion, it should be the same weight regardless. Am I correct in assuming this or is there evidence to the contrary? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantus Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 No, as far as I can recall Shardblades have varying weight, they are just often considered lighter than people expect for their typical size (ie lighter than an equivalent steel blade). The max size for a Shardblade, or at least for Syl, is roughly the size of a grown human, but she certainly doesnt weight that much when in knife or even spear form. Also, from a pure combat effectiveness standpoint bigger doesnt always equal better. Ad fwiw, n the real world the design that won out over extra big and/or long Swords were Spears, as generally the most efficient form for reach blades. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CtrlAltDepressed Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Sunlit Man Spoilers Spoiler Are you sure you want this? Spoiler Aux is able to grow to a very large size when given extra investiture which would certainly increase his weight as he is manifesting more physical material (god metal) that acts in a lot of ways like any other element. It has its own mass, chemical properties, etc, just with some magic attributes sprinkled in. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
