{{Turbine Games Q&A | Link = <nowiki>http://www.turbinegames.com/qa/view_questions.html?id=2024</nowiki> | Title = Elemental Weapons | Text = {{Turbine Games Q&A Question | Asked = 2000.11.10 | Player = Winter Wren | Title = Elemental Weapons | Category = Graphics | Question = Is the any particular reason elemental weapons still have blades? Would it be possiable to remove the 'blade' but keep the partical effect creating a more realistic effect. At the beginning I was confused because IMO a metal sword that happens to be flaming would do both slashing AND fire damage rather than just fire. It would be cool if the elemental weapons simply had a more solid partical effect creating a 'blade' from the element. The handle would have to be left as is, of course, because we have to have something to hold onto :)<br /><br />Wren | Answered = 2000.11.16 | Dev = Sean. | Answer = Particles operate differently for various framerates. If you had a high framerate, making a blade of flame would look better than if your framerate was lower. The look would not be as convincing.<br /><br />Also, for some elements, (lightning, etc) the effect is just one spark on the blade.<br /><br />It would be a cool idea for some new weapons, but don't look for the old ones to change.<br /><br />Sean. }} }}
