You're forgetting the most fundamental point: what Ravanna carries are not Gridaksma blades, unless it says otherwise in m3. They're a funadamentally different weapon, as different as a sling and a sword.
: There are a number of reasons why the Gridaksma Blades of
: the TFL Myrms are different than those employed by TWA
: Ravanna. Firstly, she is a hero, and heroes generally
: possess better quality armaments then others. Being
: the last Myrm and a friend of the Emperor would come
: with certain perks. Maybe a nicer set of blades is in
: order.
::thinks "set of blades:…::
: Or, weapons 'evolve' with time. A brief look at a sword
: from Dark Age England shows that it is vastly
: different in quality, style and material than those of
: Renaissance England.
A sword still looked like a sword :-).
: Availability of material,
Swords were made of bone?
: changing needs, or a sudden turn for the evil would
: all explain why the Myrmidons now use bone Gridaksma
: blades rather than the fancier metal ones. I can't
: imagine them mining for metals to make a blade, so
: bone (a commodity that soldiers have ready access to )
: is a likely material.
But that's the point…Ravanna DOESN'T have metal weapons, but bone ones (apparently).
: Or Bungie could've given them bone weapon to show their
: evilness, and MJ didn't want Ravanna to appear evil.
Do Ravanna's make that swath sound?
