    Default Should Mysterium based weapons be the new norm?

    So as the title asks, should all weapons from Krakoan based mutants be made out of Mysterium? By weapons I'm including everything from Psylocke's katana to Wolverine and his family tree various claws/skeletons. To the bullets used by characters like Domino and Mystique.

    My answer would be no just to make sure the Mysterium doesn't get in the wrong hands. What I mean by that is let's just say Domino and X-Force raided some Orchis facility and Dom had to shoot some red shirt nobody. Job well done for sure except that bullet that will eventually get dug out the body of said red shirt has just provided Orchis with funding for the next decade.

    Yeah I thought this could be a possibility. But at this point they already have the DNA of several mutants already.

    I'm still waiting for the Orchis controlled clones of Jean, Scott, Mystique, and Monet to pop up down the line.

    Jean and Scott being the standouts since I believe it's Canon that when their genes merge the outcome will always be omega level or very very near to it.

    Considering that it just invites writers to create an increasing number of ways it's going to be negated or ineffective, i don't see the point.

    Especialy since the marvel universe allready it's wonderous legacy materials, which will keep being used as big deal while Mysterium is rather overblown in it's origin, overhyped in it's application and brand new. In addition to that uphill battle it's also very dependant on the current status quo, which might not be around for long. So it has a high risk of being mostly forgotten and disregarded soon anyway.
    Mysterium isn't going to last judging by how things in these comics have worked over the past 20 years.

    A steel sword with a special or popular origin will beat a generic mysterium sword any day, Adamantium is heavily tied to Wolverine and therefor part of the characters legacy and bullets made of unique materials are there to be a suprise ace up the sleeve which means the material needs to be rare and hard to obtain.

    I don't know the properties of Mysterium, just that it comes from the WHR.

    F@%& yes! I’ve been saying this, but do think in Logan’s case that adamantium is too intrinsically tied to the character for a switch to mysterium to ever stick. However, for a character like Cable this would be an easy thing to do. Give his arm a mysterium upgrade. Hell, his daughter Hope used a mysterium bullet already to kill Selene. Can’t imagine why Nathan himself hasn’t thought of upgrading himself with this light, perfect conductor of a metal that has anti-magic properties.

    I mean, since mysterium is the basis for the new intergalactic currency, I assume there's already a fair amount out there... but that does mean they wouldn't want to put too much out into the world, at risk of destabilizing the currency.

    The only really distinct property of the metal itself is that it disrupts magic.

    I don't think it should be used for everything all the time but it should be available to mutants when needed and I do like the idea of one member of the wolverine family getting Mysterium claws to counter magic to help make the wolverine family more distinct in a fight.

    I'm definitely down for a Cable mysterium arm. And maybe Forge can use some for some of his weaponry.

    Oh, thanks!

    From others wanting to use it, is it indestructible? Mutable? Can it disappear until needed?

    Indestructible? Just about. Mutable? It is malleable, if that counts. Camouflageable? Perhaps.

    I could see Forge incorporating it into the Captain Krakoa Battle Armor. Can't be having some magic users messing with Artie & Leech.

    Ah, thank you so much my friend!

    I was wondering why everyone wanted if for their favorite character if the only thing it did was to just counter magic.
