>>7883040Kongu's always been a ranged weapons guy, so a melee weapon would've been out of place for him. The problem about the dual Cordak wasn't the Cordak themselves, it's that the set doesn't have its unique weapon.
Nuparu in-canon has a shield and pic related, so he's probably the one whose fighting style changed the most, but iirc that weapon is basically a gunblade so it works both as a melee and ranged weapon.
