A long time ago, I had a team based on poisonous plants that I more or less shelved months ago, but I'm dusting them off and finishing them. I'm looking for weapon advice regarding the teams current leader, Azure Solanace.

Her semblance requires physical contact to work (she thus relies mostly on close-quarters combat), but hand-to-hand combat puts you at a disadvantage from a range, and you don't get much done against the more sizeable Grimm with raw strength alone (Yang has shotgun gauntlets so she doesn't count here).

I could always resort to having her side-carry a pistol or something, but I want to give her an edged weapon. I've been considering the Karambit Knife, but it seems a tad small against more powerful Grimm. Does anyone know of a better option that's not just a retrain of the Ember Celica? Or are Karambits better than I think they are?
