I almost wonder if bolo whips/weighted nets/etc. would make a more suitable weapon for AJ:
It allows her to still lob around little apple-themed projectiles, while keeping closer to her “rancher” background in the show and the pre-gunpowder weapon theme of the Crystal Gems.
@YetAnotherBrony
Going soley by what we’ve been talking about, Twilight’s weapon is a longsword. It’s to figure out fusion weapons with whtt we’ve got and I feel that grenades and a cannon really diminishes the variety that their fusion weapons could have.
RR/FS: War fans (Rarity’ s rapier breaks down and becomes the spines of the fans, with Fluttershy’s leaves becoming the actual fan part between the spines; since this is a fusion, they might be wielding four of them simultaneously)
RD/FS: Uh, razor wind? I don’t know.
What was Twilight’s weapon again?
Not sure how to combine a cannon with crystal leaves.
Yes, and as a sort of impromptu hoverboard since Fluttershy has limited telekinetic control over them. A higher speed can be attained using the explosive force of AJ’s grenades or Pinkie’s cannon, or Rainbow’s gusts of wind.
I like the idea of Fluttershy growing crystal “leaves” everywhere. Used primarily for blocking and transport, the leaves also happen to have a razor edge…
@Mechanized Pony
Right. A longsword of some kind would be fine, then. Maybe a broadsword, depending. Likely one edge either way.
Blowpipe does sort of fit with Flutter Shy, I suppose, but I always feel like she’d be either a support type or retaliation type.
@That One Guy
You know what, I think Flutters would be happy with a blowpipe. Thtt wyy she doesn’t have to actually fight anyone and could just ambush her enemies. I kind of just wnnt Twilight to have a knightly sword.
@Mechanized Pony
Fluttershy could have beast claws, maybe? Nah, too savage. Hypno-voice? Eh.
Twilight to me should get a weapon more related to magic, but you can’t really do that without it being a spell, really. Maybe Armor or something. Probably not. A claymore seems a bit overkill, something a bit too large for her. Maybe knives of some kind for either of them. Bo Staff to me seems like more of a weapon for Twilight.
@That One Guy
But I’m merely talking about their weapons, not their powers. The “Quartzes” have their shield, I count Lapis’ wings as her weapons until something else is presented, and I don’t know what to think of Peridot in terms of her personal weapon. Your ideas for their individual weapons and powers sound alright, especially Spike’s set of metal chompers. I always liked the idea of AJ maybe having iron boots with either a blade on the heel or a hammer-like parts where her heels and toes are. That or a lasso. I find it difficult to find a suitable weapon for Fluttershy and Twilight, but I’ve been thinking along the lines of a claymore for Twilight and a bo staff or a slingshot for Flutters. RD would either get tonfa’s or sovnya. I think Pinkie might be fated to keep that cannon. I like the idea of Rarity’s rapier, but I’ve also thought about giving her neko-te or gloves with thin strings coming out of the tips that can cut through most objects.
@Mechanized Pony
Well, there was Lapis who had Water Control. And Peridot had some level of levitation skills with her… gauntlet hand thing. And Healing powers from the Quartzes.
I in no way discounted the pic’s ideas, I just presented some of my own. I quite like Rarity’s, Rainbow’s, and Pinkie’s.
@That One Guy
Your ideas for Twilight and Fluttershy aren’t exactly weapons as they are powers. This pick shows us that AJ’s weapons are bombs/grenades, Rarity has a rapier, Pinkie’s is presumably a cannon, and I count Rainbow’s wings as a weapon since it seems that they’re projected from her gem.
Edited
I think she means the girls by the original artist. If she wanted to, she could make fusions of the Mane 6 Gems.
Demdoodles has you covered! For the Rarity/Applejack fusion at least.
That’s probably a better idea, but some might think it’s too close to Sugilite’s flail.
It allows her to still lob around little apple-themed projectiles, while keeping closer to her “rancher” background in the show and the pre-gunpowder weapon theme of the Crystal Gems.

Twilight had a longsword.
TS/FS= Broadleaf sword
PP/FS= Massive Crystaleaf Shotgun!
RD/TS= Wing blades?
RR/TS= Quadruple Swords or maybe a lance?
PP/RD= Sonic Cannon!
PP/AJ= Grenade Launcher? Rocket(ish) laucher?
RD/RR= Needle Feathers/Knives?
@Mechanized Pony
And it lends itself to fusion weapons!
AJ/FS: Shrapnel bombs
RR/FS: War fans (Rarity’ s rapier breaks down and becomes the spines of the fans, with Fluttershy’s leaves becoming the actual fan part between the spines; since this is a fusion, they might be wielding four of them simultaneously)
RD/FS: Uh, razor wind? I don’t know.

Not sure how to combine a cannon with crystal leaves.
I share your joy on this matter.
I absolutely love how much thought is going into these.
I did like the thought of crystal leave armor.
She’s wearing Chlorophyte!
Yes, and as a sort of impromptu hoverboard since Fluttershy has limited telekinetic control over them. A higher speed can be attained using the explosive force of AJ’s grenades or Pinkie’s cannon, or Rainbow’s gusts of wind.
Silly me. I registered “growing crystal “leaves” everywhere” as in growing them everywhere on her person as armor. It’s a capital idea then.
Leaf platforms?
Interesting idea, but how would it be used for transport?

I could easily see Fluttershy being a support type, It’s just her nature.
