RWBY Thread III: Time To Say Goodbye

Stop: So gotta few things that need to be said real quick.
so gotta few things that need to be said real quick.
We get a lot of reports from this thread. A lot of it is just a series of people yelling at each other over arguments that have been rehashed hundreds of times since the end of the recent Volume. And I get that the last Volume - and RWBY in general, really - has some controversial moments that people will want to discuss, argue about, debate, etc.

That's fine. We're not going to stop people from doing that, because that's literally what the point of the thread is. However, there's just a point where it gets to be a bit too much, and arguments about whether or not Ironwood was morally justified in his actions in the recent Volume, or if RWBY and her team were in the right for withholding information from Ironwood out of distrust, or whatever flavor of argument of the day descend into insulting other posters, expressing a demeaning attitude towards other's opinions, and just being overall unpleasant. That tends to happen a lot in this thread. We want it to stop happening in this thread.

So! As of now the thread is in a higher state of moderation. What that means is that any future infractions will result in a weeklong boot from the thread, and repeated offenders will likely be permanently removed. So please, everyone endeavor to actually respect the other's arguments, and even if you strongly disagree with them please stay civil and mindful when it comes to responding to others.

In addition, users should refrain from talking about off-site users in the thread. Bear in mind that this does not mean that you cannot continue to post tumblr posts, for example, that add onto the discussion in the thread, with the caveat that it's related to RWBY of course. But any objections to offsite users in the thread should be handled via PM, or they'll be treated as thread violations and infracted as such.

SB screen-name: epee+light machine gun

The first sounds like something out of a Zelda game, second is somewhere between Nora and Pyrrha, third is probably a bread & butter design for Remnant and you'd need Coco's compression capabilities to work the last one.
 
Someone needs to run the canon character names through that just to see what they'd get.
Ruby Rose 's weapon will be a falchion combined with dual-wield pistols.
Blake Belladonna 's weapon will be a spear combined with dual-wield light machine guns (LMG).
Weiss Schnee 's weapon will be a machete combined with a submachine gun (SMG).
Yang Xiao Long 's weapon will be a falchion combined with dual-wield assault rifles.

Jaune Arc 's weapon will be a wrench combined with a pump-action shotgun.
Nora Valkyrie 's weapon will be a talwar combined with dual-wield pistols.
Pyrrha Nikos 's weapon will be a katar combined with a musket.
Lie Ren 's weapon will be gauntlets combined with an assault rifle.
 
To be fair, I think some of them wouldn't do too bad with those weapons. Also, Jaune Arc with a wrench and gun gives me flashbacks to Dark Cloud 2/Dark Chronicle, which can only be a good thing.
 
I've run a few Red vs. Blue characters through:
Reds:
Grif: bayonette combined with an automatic shotgun.
Simmons: gauntlets combined with dual-wield pistols.
Sarge: a bullwhip combined with a submachine gun (SMG) .
Donut: battle axe combined with a pistol .
Lopez: a keyblade (<--WTF?!?) combined with a rocket launcher .
Blues:
Church in general: a claymore combined with a rocket launcher .
Tucker: a flail combined with a rocket launcher .
Caboose: a shield combined with dual-wield sawed-off shotguns .
Sheila: a flamberge combined with a bolt action sniper rifle .
Sister: a claymore combined with a musket .
Freckles: a pickaxe combined with dual-wield sawed-off shotguns .
Others:
Alpha: a tonfa combined with a light machine gun (LMG) .
Doc: a bullwhip combined with a carbine
Tex: a javelin combined with an automatic shotgun .
Epsilon: a falchion combined with an assault rifle .
Carolina: a battle axe combined with an automatic shotgun .
Washington: a flamberge combined with a rocket launcher .
 
So I went back and did my actual full name. I got a Lasso combined with dual wield Light machine guns. Just, how does that work?
 
Full Name: Halbred/Semi-automatic Sniper Rifle
First Name: Cutlass/Grenade Launcher
Username: Gauntlets/Pistols
Chinese Name: Talwar/Grenade Launcher
 
Full real name: lance/light machine gun
First name: scimitar/rocket launcher
Last name: shiv/sawed-off shotgun
SV handle: shield/automatic shotgun

HOnestly torn between the first and last ones, because the middle ones just seem silly.
 
Using my forum handle for here gets me a sheathe with dual pistols.
Forum handle on another forum gets grenade launcher tonfas.

Frankly both are ridiculous in the best ways. Dual wielding pistol sheaths.
 
So, either a pike with a pump-action shotgun, or a heavy assault rifle combined with a pump-action shotgun. Oddly, this actually somewhat mirrors my play practices in FPS's.
 
First Name: weapon will be a kite shield combined with a carbine.
Last Name: weapon will be a sickle combined with a pistol.
Full Name: weapon will be a hanbo combined with a semi-automatic sniper rifle.
AkatsukiLeader13's weapon will be a dagger combined with a bolt action sniper rifle.

A dagger combined with a bolt action sniper rifle? That sounds just so impossible that I want to see it.

That said, the first two are weapons I'd like to have.
 
As tribute to Monty, I put his name in. These are what I got:
Monty Oum: a gladius combined with a rocket launcher .
Monty: a katana combined with a carbine
Oum: monk's spade combined with a musket .
 
Real name: nunchaku combined with a sawed-off shotgun . But I don't know how to use nunchucaku!
Forum name: knuckles combined with dual-wield light machine guns (LMG) . Fuck the hell yes!
 
Full name: baton combined with dual pistols
First name: naginata combined with a rocket launcher
Last name: pitchfork with dual-wield sawed-off shotguns
Screen name: scythe combined with a light machine gun
 
My username gives me a pike combined with dual-wield assault rifles.

...How, exactly, is that supposed to work?:confused:

The pike is really big and turns into two assault rifles, which are reloaded in a way that you can do with no hands free (probably involves twirling them). Might mean you can make the pike slightly smaller and fight with both the pike and an assault rifle.
 
First RL name: a machete combined with a grenade launcher.

Full RL Name: a chakram combined with a semi-automatic sniper rifle.

SV handle: a longsword combined with a boomerang.
