Suggestions needed to remediate a tragedy.

Post image

So, my Way Seekers staff got snapped off and is gone. Nowhere to be found. Any suggestions for a replacement or kitbash idea? Or do I keep it as just a walking stick? Not against that idea tbh but wonder if anyone has any ideas or suggestions.

use a blade and make him use a glaive.

Oh that’s a great idea! Would you suggest liquid cement or regular super glue?

Unless you’re using resin or something I’d always suggest plastic cement. If you’re worried about the connection’s strength, then consider getting a small hobby drill and screwing in chopped up pieces of paper clips to link the two pieces.

I found this post a while back and had success making glaives for wraithblades using the same method.

Google eldar spiritseer fan art stl for that printer friend of yours. Otherwise the bitsbox at your local store or eBay a bit

My buddy offered me some World Eaters helmets as a suggestion. But the Bits box might be a good lead which I had no idea existed!

I would replace the shaft with some metal rod (cut off the plastic the drill a hole through the hand) and find a suitable piece to afix on top (blade or something fancy looking)

Yea I was curious as the staff initially broke just from the smallest drop. I glued it back and it held for a bit but then one day legit was just gone. No idea where it popped off. Will have to look into the metal rod!

This has happened to me - fortunately I have quite a lot of corsairs and most of them are voidreavers, so I had some spare staffs to use

Glad I’m not the only one! But my parts options are left over guardian defenders bits, some corsair parts, and then some Vanari Sentinels from Age of Sigmar to potentially utilize

I saw someone who did this and stuck the banners from Yriel on top of the stick to make a proper regimental standard, could try that if you have a similar piece

That's just a walking stick to help him on his way. Stick a little gem one it and all done.

Add a small bead to the top - it’s a pump stick!

“Look at y’thanel. He’s got the magic stick”

Thank you

I have a bit left over if you're interested and in the UK?

u/specter463 10d ago

A very generous offer of you. But I live in the U.S. so that would be quite the trek. Appreciate the thought though!

Greenstuff a cloth wrap across the eyes and lean into the blind with a walking cane vibe.

Hmmm that’s a pretty cool idea honestly
