The thread seems kind of quiet; maybe bringing up another weapon might spark discussion.

Instead of a longsword that could convert into a bow using a flail-like principle, I was thinking of opting for a halberd with a similar ranged function instead. The curved side of the halberd's axehead component would be capable of telescoping and extending into a shape with curvature akin to a standard longbow. The axehead would be tipped with a lightning-dust crystal, so that when it comes in contact with the base of the staff, an electric charge would run through it, causing it to take a more fluid state, allowing it to function as the weapon's bowstring.
