@Fleeur No, you’re a troll, period. Diablo 3 isn’t the only game I’m referring to. Grow up. And I’m certain I’m not the only one who wants this, as much as others may disagree with my opinion.
@annismule1 True… but… swordsman skills synergize with two handed swords, and cataphract skills synergize with spears, and so forth.
I love my cleric to death, but I really hate having to see him use a mace. One handed swords aren’t much better. I’d love to see the use of a two handed sword on him.
Of course, with archers and wizards, a two handed sword may not do anything for them, power and stats-wise, so it can be as if you’re not wearing a weapon at all, without the MAtk given from say, rods or staves, since you’re not using a weapon suited to your skills.
If I was able to use a 2h sword on my battle cleric, I don’t get to use any skills that use a 2h sword for my guy in the same way that a barbarian or doppelsoldner uses, but the aesthetic of having one on my character is something I highly value. I would also be able to use the power of the 2h swords in my auto attacks that I use every now and then (perhaps, to a lesser extent that keeps the swordsman class unique).
But damn tl;dr: I’d just like to have it for the looks and the roleplaying factor heh.
