Speaking of the rest of Ruby's team, if I was going to augment the other RWBY members' arsenals, I would likely do the following:

Weiss: Make her a true Renaissance Fencer, equipped with an Dustweave cloak for her off-hand side as defense/distraction/concealment, and a Multi-Action Dust Dagger with a knuckle guard sheathed on the same side. The dagger would be for parrying and give her a back-up in case she needs to ditch the cloak or runs into an issue with her sword. I would also change her rapier to a backsword, which is better in a straight-up fight, as it's wieghter and sturdier, and add a knuckle guard that extends down to the pommel.

Blake: Integrate Dustweave cloth into Gambol Shroud's ribbon, so she can use elemental clones without using a special Dust magazine. Giving her a firearm with better range and power would be a good idea. Probably a DMR of some sort.

Yang: Give her a long-arm shotgun of some variety, maintaining her CQB preference with the ability to engage at a distance depending on the rounds loaded.
