Staves are usable by mages, monks, warlocks, alchs, and if this goes through, samurai. 5 classes that are all viable as casters that can use the same wep? The market for int daggers would drop off by a significant amount for anyone that plans ahead even a little bit. I could be wrong, I'm just trying to think of every side-effect this might have :P (I do like the idea of staves [among other items] being more viable for a wider range of classes)


Wow that one is news to me....

Maybe you should learn the game a little better before telling how something is going to have some sort of negative affect on the game... Just my view though

First off, Alch can't use a weapon PERIOD.
Secondly, who would HONESTLY cast on a Samurai, other than InsaneBobb of Atlantis?


As far as I can tell, the effect this would have on caster staffs is.. none.
Plain and simple, though, melee staffs NEED at least one other class that actually means something.
So far, the only one worthwhile is a Monk.

!!!

Edit: Not worth getting into a flame war over this. As I stated in my post, I COULD BE WRONG. There was no need to go apeshit over a post that might have brought up a new issue.

Not trying to start a flame-war. Don't worry.
And, to clear things up, didn't go apeshit either.



Now, back on topic here, please. We've all strayed a bit.

Lol why would any one hate you it's your preference on what you do with that class ... as long as you are happy with what you do it's aoo good my friend :thumbsup: I prefer Hybrid but not enough good healers out there to climb pure melee effectivly.....

But with Sammy being able to use staves than newer players can go with a cheaper set of items and use them for more than just the first class.

fully shrined HC sammy caster avges 6min levels 55-71 So uhm it is easily doable. You just need good gear and big vault :)

Or you could do 6-7 min lvls with no vault needed on melee and self found shrines :P


If only my name was danomak :(

Folks, please. This is not a competition of who does what, and on which class.
This is a poll thread. I will admit, I'm just as guilty as everyone else, but if a post must
be made, please keep it directly related to the suggestion. I don't need this thread
getting closed down for spam.


Please, keep the votes coming in.
Comment if you must, just keep it on topic.
