probably is written somewhere/mentioned on a chief chat, but that's the only thing that jumps out mentioning what weapons would be available. It does say etc. so I'd assume we'll get a bunch of duel wield weapons , and two handed ones like scythes, polearms etc.

@zdoofop "I meant wht weapons will the light frame have in the playable mockup. Sorry for the confuison."

Grummz has mentioned that the Light Omniframe will be a melee build. However I don't recall whether he's confirmed any specific melee weapons ... yet.
Here is what Grummz said during a January Discord visit:

January 29, 2020 Discord #devtracker
Grummz: Yes Light will be in the playable
Grummz: At least the melee version
Grummz: I'm actually thinking Melee Light frame with dual power fists, and deployable turrets
As well as something Ronyn said during an impromptu Chief Chat:
March 9, 2020 Impromptu Chief Chat
Ronyn: Exactly what kind of melee weapons will be available is somewhat undecided.

@EvilKitten "The kickstarter demo will only have the medium frame I believe."

From Grummz during 2 separate Chief Chats. One Impromptu and one scheduled:
March 9, 2020 Impromptu Chief Chat
Grummz: Thanks to the subscribers, we're actually going to model and put the light frame in [the Playable Mockup].
Grummz: And it will have melee abilities.
Grummz: It will have the dual power fists and some other abilities that I'm not announcing yet.
April 9, 2020 Scheduled Chief Chat
Grummz: The Light omniframe will be modeled and ready for the Playable Mockup.

@Mahdi "But how close are we to heavy being worked on? Weren't we only 8 subs shy or something?"
