They definitely do not exist unless they’re in someone’s private computer buried somewhere.
Alrighty I think these will be the last animations I do for now, Let me know what you think:
Eliwood Promoted Bow Animation
Ephraim Sword Animation

These are a bit more freestyle than the others, let me know what you think. Also anyone feel free to edit/update them if you want.
Very nice! Great work bro!
Using Eliwood’s Knight Lord or a Lance/Bow T2 we could actually have a Silver Knight class
Personally, if Lyn could get a lance animation for her promoted class, we could have:
Eliwood Unp: Bow
Eliwood Pro: Bow, Sword
Lyn Unp: Sword
Lyn Pro: Sword, Lance
Hector Unp: Axe
Hector Pro: Axe, Sword
(Eirika: Anima [+Light]
(Ephraim: Lance [+None?])
And then all the lords actually have different weapons they wield when unpromoted. Ofc, I’ve also considered:
Eliwood Lance [+Sword]
Lyn Sword [+Bow]
Hector Axe [+Sword]
And it achieves the same thing, but eh it’s a matter of taste.
Now to just animate this bad boy for Eliwood’s unpromoted Durandal animation…
Its always bugged me too that the three lords didn’t all use different weapons, that’s what I was going for with the Eliwood lance animation.
Also that durandal animation is pretty freaking epic.
On the other hand, Swords would be/already are the joining weapon for all three FE7 Lords, which is pretty neat to think about.
^Ideally, it’d be lance/bow, sword/lance, axe/sword split, but since Eliwood has a badass Durandal animation, it’d a loss to swap him to lance/bow.
Maybe if he had a sekrit new legendary lance weapon animation though…
Edit: Actually, better idea. Just make all the lords start with a different weapon, and they all gain sword on promo.
Eliwood: Lance+Sword
Lyn: Bow+Sword
Hector: Axe+Sword
Now it’s consistent, and everyone is unique right up to the endgame!
But Klok it’s the “Blazing Sword” not the “Lightning Sword.”
could you upload the frames for those as well?
This has the frames for the Ephraim Sword and the Promoted Eliwood Bow.
I like the idea of all the lords with unique weapons, I feel like the sword is over used across the board.
I was gonna like your comment, but then I noticed the disgusting hypocrisy known as your username being named after a sword. You’re a betrayer of your own people.
there’s a few simple reasons why sword is used the most often
it’s a fantasy game, so swords have to be there
and in fe’s terms; swords > axes and bandits are in almost every earlygame fe chapter(and bandits wield axes), so its to give the main character an advantage
So let’s not make this a thing ever again please, fangame makers. Please.
Personally, I’d like to see more Knights and Soldiers as starting enemies. Maybe a hack involving a Robin Hood-like ‘Lord’ that uses Bows and/or Axes to start off?
yeah bows vs armor knights
that’s a match up i want to see
(also axes are innately inaccurate; reasoning why it’s a rare main weapon for lords)
i feel that anything done well will be fine; no one likes desert chapters and I managed to have 2 in less than 4 chapters with 0 complaints
I love desert chapters! Mainly because of secret items though.
That’s why you make the “Totally not a Warrior” Lord in this theoretical hack have a good personal weapon and/or good stats. Hector and Holmes were perfectly fine units despite being an axeknight and a glorified Forrestknight.
hector is pretty bad tbh
besides, neither is the first lord you get, which is where you get your early bandit chapters
so…
