Knuckle-dusters/spiked gauntlets and/or Whips.

Whips were never really a combat weapon, despite what Steven Spielberg would have you believe.

I would like flails. Lower damage per hit than maces, higher attack speed, and longer range.
Maybe have dex/int/str requirement.

i've seen whips a few times as a weapon so yeah can be done lol

Can you provide some evidence that it works? The wiki has uncited claims that it doesn't work as a practical weapon.

what if we can have tanks in the game, well seriously they need to rework all those stupid skills or make a new game if they gonna add new weapons ;)

Id vote spears

its really dumb that such a simple, practical weapon is omitted from so many games

Spears have my vote, followed by crossbows and flails.

You make 0,0 sense.... they can make "magic" gun or magic gunpowder.

A STR based ranged weapon... either throwing axes or spears.

Where you can socket a gem with the tags "missile" and "spell"

Then instead of casting the spell, you shoot it?
Replacing cast speed with attack speed? Or something along those lines?

Vaal constructs are completely mechanic and looks like steampunk already and there are so many machines in this game working with mechanic construction. One of them is map device, which is actually seems like some sort of quantum bullshit. They have nazi camps in this game atm why no gunpowder? You can throw some jew orbs to the air and shoot them for training.

Also, for the thread ofc crossbow must be the first one in the list. High multiplier and less attack speed is already exist for melee but ranged characters always same. Crossbow poison may be good for "Perfect Agony" with Bino mechanics.
