I hope this becomes a weapon slot item, because we already have more samurai items than we can wear.

thats true, the hat, jacket and armpads are all the cosmedic slots, so the shinguards would be a great bootlegger instead.

The guy who said this should be like the bootlegger and the ali baba's wee booties is a genius!
The stats should be the same as the boot and the wee booties.

Bootlegger/Wee Booties Reskin

this is amazing. I dont care wat the stats. It definitely looks better than the bootlegger and wee booties. If u were to change the stats, i would make him attack and move faster, since his a samuri...though of course drunk xD

wouldnt the -50% charging control ruin the tide turner???

I wouldn't care if this would turn our to be a reskin, and not have original stats. If this turns out to be a cosmetic, it would be disastrous.

Yeah. It could just give extra health for all I care. We need this in the game.

Bloddy brilliant.

Is there a mod for this anywhere?

Rename it to the Shin-obi shredders. :)

i rather think it should take a spot on the secondary weapon slot, aside form the simmilarity to the other boots it wouldn't even be right to see a demorai run arround with a shield that doesn't even fit the sets theme, it just looks better if you can charge with it without the use of a shield

if this becomes a reality i would suggest stats like:
~item takes secondary weapon slot
~alt fire initiates a charge attack
+full turn controll while charging
+immune to movement impairing effects while charging
-can only use charge while a melee weapon is active
-Charge attack deals no damage at inpact

this example allows the demorai to use a primary weapon for ranged combat instead of becoming forced to melee with the use of shield and boots

I agree on the comment above me.
The shield is kinda eww and not fitting at all.

Though I thought about other stats:
-No minicrit or crit (does not include the random crit)
+100% more speed of charge
-No turn controll while charging
+While charging, bleeding activates for (either only while charging or from the charge + 3 seconds after it) melee weapon.

(More unlikely: +Cliping through enemy, leaving them bleeding for 3 seconds [I assume that would break several severs and is most likely a total abuse. Maybe it stunns while charging through enemies, I don't know)

At least make it either a first or secondary weapon, because it would break the mood if it becomes a misc.

I totally agree! All we need now for this set is a gong as the shield!

We already have Samur-Eye and Menpo, so this and another item in this set (arm pads/chestplate) would need to become a weapon reskin to have the whole demo look. I like the way you guys are all creatively thinking and saying it could be a reskin of the Bootlegger, but would that really work? I don't know. XD
