my ideas are 1) a spear it would be like a combo between a lance, a glaive and a long sword. it would  have the ability to jump like the insect glaive but would not have the insect. it would do piercing damage like the lance but would not be able to block. it would be able to do a spirit combo like attack from the longsword and have the speed of the longsword. the spirit combo for the spear would be a rapid thrust where you stand still and thrust the spear forward alot of time really fast but when doing it you would be stuck there leaving you open to an attack. 2) claws they would be a slower but harder hitting version of the dual blades they would have one of these things im about to list instead of demon mode. the first one is what i call fury you would have a bar that fills up when you attack a monster and when it fills up you enter fury mode where your attacks get faster and hit harder then you can fill up the bar again to enter berserk mode which is an upgraded form of fury but you also get access to the claws form of demon dance. the way i would balance it is by making it so when your out of combat the bar drains fast and when you sheath them the bar resets. the other idea to replace demonn mode i call vampire it's the same as demon mode but you lose health insted of stamina but when you get into the archdemon mode of vampire you get a life leech affect along with the buffs of demon mode. my final idea is a katana weapon that you don't need to draw out. all attacks start with it in it's sheath how it would is you press the basic attack button to do a basic swing pullling it out of it's sheath then you press the two attack buttons to do a combo. as you do a combo the sword charges up and you can either do a hard hitting slash or you can sheathe the sword and energy a blast of energy would come from it. the hard hitting slash will always inclict elemental damage even if the weapon's damage is only normally available by using awakening and will always inflict aliments. the blast of energy will be like a flash bomb if the sword has no element. if the sword has an element it will do an aoe attack of that element. if the sword does an aliment it will do an aoe blast of that aliment but do no damage.
