I love the cutlass don’t get me wrong and yet there is another sword I would love to wield while fighting throughout the seas of thieves...
The Rapier
Fast attacks, long reach, different hilts (german, italian, spanish, etc), different colors, and of course same damage as the cutlass.
I would say the sword doesn’t need a drawback. However, if you wanted to add a drawback, make the sword weaker against bosses (skull captains etc) or make it a touch weaker than the cutlass.
To attain this sword we could do some sort of treasure hunt/monster fighting quest like this:
A long gone and forgotten pirate legend slew this mystical beast and left the Rapier imbedded in the beast and with one of your updates Rare, this beast comes back to life and crews all around must come together or they can do it alone (doubtful this is one huge beast), to track this beast down and send it back to davy jones locker!! Attaining the legendary Rapier after the quest is completed.
The beast......is the mystical Leviathan. Huge underwater beast, looks like a dragon, and I believe it even jumps out of the water and such. Will be a challenge.
Come on Rare, you can do this!!!
Let me know what you think fellow pirates and lets try to get rare to make this happen!!
