No, but they do give off a blast unique to each element when hitting an enemy.

If PSU is the only PS game you've ever played, yeah.

Portable, Portable 2... infinity...
(all are PSU ports and rehashes for money to fund the PSU servers and PSO2 development
but even that's not true. They just funded other games with the majority)

I'm glad they got rid of that feature from PSU. Thunder weapons were so hard to look at.

Also, the different colors of the weapons depends on the maker and what color they are tells how strong they are compared to other weapons of the same make.

Like green is the weakest, then blue, then dark blue.

Don't you mean they were the absolute best on large hunter weapons

You have a huge metal blade, the last thing you need is a glowing neon pommel at the end of it.

Though, having the element visible on the weapon was a convenience.

Weapons without photon blades were subpar anyway

PSU's asinine obsession with element-colored glowing ruined Lavis Cannon. I'm glad they got rid of it.

Makes me glad the lavis weapons were dark only in the Portable games, or at least the Japanese ones.

Even if it was dark, it was this horribly blurry blob of light that wasn't appealing at all.

Lavis Cannon's supposed to be this awesome purple crystal saber. If they had kept that and maybe had the core inside FAINTLY glow whatever element color you had assigned to it, it wouldn't be so bad.
