ScruffyWhiskers✭✭✭✭✭I remember finding the Ebon Blade Daedric Artifact katana in that hut in the Oblivion game. Man that took my power to a whole new level. It would be great if the dark brotherhood DLC added this.
It would be even better if only I had one though. For balance of course. Can't have everyone running around with swords like that.0 -
BaldusMageezack✭✭✭Well since the Blades are our representatives in the sewers I think we will see them shortly1 -
NinjaMyk✭✭✭The queen of AD is already seen with a katana style blade as well which means there is no reason we won't get them at some point1

barbarian340✭✭✭just like they have the option to turn weapons into the imperial style, they should do the same for the swords (akaviri style)0

✭Maybe when we'll get the akaviri motif.
With how Xivkyn and Glass fragments came out, I dread to think how to obtain this motif, rofl.Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.1 -

✭✭✭Orc style Swords are rather katana-like. Can't say I've found a katana-like Greatsword but then again those don't need to be katanas lolGuildmaster of Power With Numbers in PS4 NA Server's Aldmeri Dominion.

Selique✭✭✭✭There are katana style swords already. The old PvP swords are "Akiviri" styled. They look like short katanas.Falls-With-Grace ~ Shadowscale (Argonian Night Blade)
Selique Lasra ~ Captain, Smuggler, Swashbuckler (Redguard Templar)
Chases-Comets ~ Shellback Warrior (Argonian Dragon Knight)
Slissix-Kir ~ Swamp Shaman (Argonian Sorcerer)

Endless-Shogun✭✭✭Akaviri are "Snake Men". The stories describe them as having snake-like bodies, its unclear weather this means upper or lower body, or if they simply have scales. But the way the lore talks about them, I imagine them with snake bodies and no legs.
The Blades took their armor style and their fighting style and adjusted them for two leg use.
Hopefully the Motif will be released soon, with the ALSO already in-the-game models of the Yokudan style.- The Legion Empire -0 -
RizaHawkeye✭✭✭✭Just wait for this:
I'm curious - is that for real? And what kind of armor is it?
THAT would make me play the game again.

Yeah, just go into cyrodil, earn lots of Alliance Points, and buy yourseld one of those sets from the vendors. IIRC, the V12 purple pieces are around 30K AP, the V14 100K AP... you sometimes also find green pieces in your "rewards for the worthy" and they do occasionally show up in well stocked guild stores as well...RizaHawkeye wrote: »

There -have- been rumours that eventually they plan to release the akaviri style for learning & crafting. Seems rather likely, the style IS in the game after all, and while it likely would be a rare skill book, probably come in chapters and such... it seems like something that they'd do since it adds to the game at little extra effort on their part...

Or just find a well-stocked guild store, where v14 versions can be had for 500-1000 gold.0 -
