Details
Swift Blades aren't really blades. They are regular swords, but way more OP.
I suggest reworking them:
The Problem
Swift Blades have the same attack damage as regular swords, yet much higher attack speed. Which makes them way too overpowered. And the crafting recipe isn't any more expensive. Are you crazy?
The Solution
Instead of just copying swords and removing the attack cooldown, I suggest doing this instead:
- Swift Blades should have less durability than regular swords
- Swift Blades should have double the attack speed than regular swords (Not 14)
- Swift Blades should have two times less the attack damage than regular swords
That will fix most of the issues with Swift Blades, and make them not that overpowered.
I suggest making them have less attack damage, because their speed is much faster. That will balance the Swift Blades and they will feel much more vanilla.
People will have to choose a weapon that is more suitable for them. Maybe, if they can't aim very well, they would want to choose a Swift Blade over a Sword, so a miss isn't that bad. But instead, if a player can aim well, they would want to choose a regular Sword, to perform more damage. There are more factors than that, but those are the most basic examples I can give here.
The Textures
They are disgusting.
Just look at it:
They don't even look like blades, like what?!
Instead of that, I suggest a texture that would look something like this:
It may not be the best texture ever, but I would prefer this over the current one. It does actually look more like a blade!
The texture file itself, if you need it, is available here. Feel free to use it.
