One's based off a pistol crossbow, having a bit worse accuracy and range but otherwise packing the same punch as the same variant (since it uses just as much dull essence per shot). Added to both Via Gladium et Malleo and Fior Di Battaglia. Its flash effect uses more dull essence than a normal hammer of the hunter, in exchange for being able to deal damage to normal enemies in its AoE instead of just shadow monsters. It's modified so that it could plausibly be more effective in melee range than conventional polearms, primarily to justify letting it count as a Via Gladium et Malleo weapon (since it'd be weird to have it be the only mage hunter melee weapon the style can't use), but I'm still not 100% sure if I'll stick with that. * Luminous hammers are basically the lucerne hammer polearm converted into a hammer of the hunter. * In the same vein as the above, thunder demi-gaunts are a variant of thunder gauntlets that better fit mutant anatomy, in particular being fingerless and compatible with natural attacks like claws, or can be worn over gloves.
Main benefit is being more mutant-friendly, in addition to being lighter. Whereas the mantle of shadows is technically more like a robe with a decorative mantle, this is literally more like a mantle or capelet. * Illusory mantle is a variant of the mantle of shadows.
Only covers the eyes and is compatible with mutant use in general, and fits on the outer layer to allow wearing it over full-face helmets. Quote * Hunter's visor, a variant of the mask of insight.
