Valkyn Skoria & Nightflame Arms pack feedback

From what has been datamined I've seem the images of the Arms Packs of these 2 Dungeon bosses. I can say that I'm disappointed in both of them.

Issue #1: Maces. Barely anyone uses Maces - it's by far the ugliest style there is for anything. Blob on a stick, sometimes pointy and edgy. Sure, there is a need for mace styles so there's no weapon discrimination, but the maces here just look awful.
- Valkyn Skoria should come with a sword style, either with or replacing the Mace style. That mace looks like a Crab Claw on a stick. Seen here:
- Nightflame's Mace is just edges on a stick. Same suggestion as above - either add a sword/dagger style with it. Image of the mace:
Having these Arms packs come with swords/daggers or all 3, would make it so much more appealing. Hell, all arms packs should actually come with each weapon type. Honestly, I'd hands-down buy the Nightflame and Skoria Arm packs if they had sword Variants.
Issue #2: Cross-Guard of the Nightflame's Greatsword, seen here:
being wonky is kind of weird and unsettling. Sure can be overlooked, however the grip of the hilt does look a bit cheap and out-of-place for a dungeon boss weapon. Make it more mettle...y? If that's even a word.
Since this isn't on PTS, I have like no idea what the proper forum is. It was added this PTS in game files, so why not?

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.

He wields a Xivkyn Sword with the effect of Molten Armaments, but his "Charred Claymore" is Daedric style trash loot. Lul.
The arms pack has a 2hr. Imo it does look REALLY nice, especially if it was scaled to size for swords.Edited by Blackbird_V on January 22, 2019 12:52AMDifficulty 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.

ZOS logic is higher then perception of us, dirty plain peasants
I think somebody needs to say their sales director that nobody loves maces, everybody loves swords, they will fail at sales with this crabhammer. 2 -

Yay! Did I start a meme? Am I useful now?
Praise Crabclaw Crabhammer!
It is true though what you said. It's rank and honestly is just a crabhammer.Edited by Blackbird_V on January 22, 2019 12:55AMDifficulty 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.

MrGspeed✭Zo$ is too lazy to make the style for all weapon types, even for a style pack that they want us to pay real money for it
Nightflame greatsword is a terrible combination of African tribes cross guard + a straight blade lul and let's not talk about that ugly mace eugh who will use a mace for one-handed what is wrong with their designers0 -

✭✭✭Ha! what goes with the claw-hammer - the shield of melted butter? Instead of Valkyn Skoria, you will look like a tourist having a birthday at a seafood restaurant.
