Also, CP2077 has item damage at spawn be determined by your level - a common weapon that spawns when you're level 50 is going to be much stronger than even a legendary iconic weapon you got towards the beginning of the game. This can be made up for somewhat with the crafting mechanic, though it may take more components than it's worth.

The Axe of Godfrey wasn’t doing anything because they didn’t have enough strength to use it. If they did there would have been a massive shockwave after planting the axe and they’d have started glowing red. That indicates a damage boost and a new heavy attack moveset. Still suffers from being a colossal weapon but it can be a fun niche in pvp that most people underestimate since the range of the shockwave is so large and the heavy attacks are so strong

If I’m remembering correctly, it’s a burden to the user because it’s supposed to represent the weight of one’s guilt, and since Silent Hill tends to pick up people with some really heavy baggage they need to unpack, anyone who would find the great knife will automatically have a hard time using it because of that. It’s a really cool concept to put into a weapon, honestly

It's an interesting detail. It's implied that Dante and Vergil share the same ability of Instant Devil Arm Mastery (Dante's got 5 games to show that off; Vergil showcased it with Beowulf), but when it comes to each other's weapons/style, there's a very clear issue that Dante can't unleash the full power of Yamato, while Vergil can't use the Force Edge as effectively. Which is why they both keep *Their* weapon on hand when using their opposite weapon. (Dante's Dark Slayer is a Style; Vergil still wields Yamato in tandem with Force/Mirage Edge and often dual wields the two.)

The Sword of Aeons in Fable is an odd example. You only get it in the very end of the game and have to murder your sister to activate it, so its insane power (wildly more damaging than the strongest two-handed weapon while being one-handed) is just for rampaging around the postgame. Then the Lost Chapters came out, adding more story content after the normal ending... and nerfing the Sword of Aeons down to "pretty good, I guess". It also adds a good-guy alternative for proper heroes who don't sacrifice their siblings, and it's statistically identical. As is often the case in morality plays, evil is for suckers.

In fairness to Dante, the sword is used in a style he's not particularly familiar with. He always uses bigger, heavier swords, and even says something about not being as good as Vergil the one time he slices up a monument. Plus, he might be holding back and also reluctant to use it at all. He passed it to Nero because he saw him and was like "I'm pretty sure that's Vergil's kid so logically he should inherit it" and Nero just naturally wields it much better than Dante can. In any game where you can play as Vergil using the sword it's still insanely powerful, so the fact that it's not as good is pretty much specific to Dante himself

The devil may cry one is logical for why it’s crap in your hands vs it’s original owner because Vergil used the thing non stop so he knows how to use it and the skills that come from it are half his and half what he brought out of it thanks to his dad Also Dante would never fully use Yamato because Vergil dose not care if he destroys the world aka the entire point of that sword a key to the underworld

I figure that the reason Dante can't use Yamato as well as Vergil is that Dante uses a bunch of different weapons, but never truly masters any except the ones he always carries. The same goes for Vergil; he can use other weapons, but none as well as Yamato.

It's what the game calls it. It one hits most things and can do good chunk damage against the boss types at least. Assuming you can actually hit anything with it.

The Yamato is actually very good in DMC4, not only is it essential for Dante’s combo game but it builds DT insanely fast, has great crowd control abilities, (which is something Dante’s other weapons kinda lack) and is very good at breaking the Angelo’s shields.

Fun Fact about the Eden Sword vom AC Unity. In AC Valhalla there is a kinda tedious Sidequest, that lets you get your hands on a shooty version of that sword, as Eivor is the one who unleashes that thing on the world.

About a third of weapons from the Megaman franchise could fit in here. Pumpman's weapon springs to mind, and not being about to shoot after using Flashman's time-stop fits in too.

Time Stopper is easily one of the worst RM weapons. -You can't shoot while it's active. -Stopped enemies can still damage you if you touch them. -Worst of all, you can't even deactivate it once used, it has to run out of energy. It's only good for cutting Quick Man's HP in half and that's it.

Stone Man's weapon from MegaMan 5 would actually be the worst if Charge Man's weapon didn't exist. You can't shoot and you have to slide to do damage but you can easily take damage if you time it wrong.

@@HylianFox3 It doesn't even kill the robot master it's meant to be weak to from full health (Quick Man). IIRC a full meter of Time Stopper only does 2/3 damage on Normal difficulty, and 1/2 on Hard difficulty.

The Broken Sceptre, from Warframe's Elder Queen fight. During the first phase of the fight, she uses it to force Teshin, the last of the elite Orokin warriors known as Dax, to attack you against his will. After you defeat him, she then uses it to fire beams of energy that push you around like you're an empty shopping cart. In fact, the way you beat her isn't even by damaging her, but by stealing the massive 2-meter long staff, rendering her powerless, and then deciding her fate. Then, in the quest's final cutscene, you remove the part of the staff that gives it all the cool powers, and it becomes a semi-decent, totally ordinary pole weapon.
